This summer has meant a lot to me, with different things to treasure at different times. First it was the end of exams; then we got our results to find out we&#8217;ve finally graduated; then I began job hunting and finally succeeded. And between each milestone I was lucky to be able to enjoy this very last summer vacation with my loved ones. Yes, this summer has been a happy one, and so it&#8217;s natural that I feel some sadness when this summer is nearly over. In particular, I&#8217;m leaving Lee Shau Kee, a place I&#8217;ve called home for the past five years.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, a lot has happened throughout my five-year hall life. I&#8217;m never a sentimental person, but right now I&#8217;d really like to list my most treasured memories in this hall (in random order):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>P&amp;P Subcom<\/li>\n<li>Play hard and work hard with dental friends<\/li>\n<li>Living in single room<\/li>\n<li>Sharing a double room with James<\/li>\n<li>Love stories?<\/li>\n<li>Quiet moments alone (with wine)<\/li>\n<li>Dinners alone (Fusion \/ Pizza Hut + Mcwings takeaway)<\/li>\n<li>Things I don&#8217;t remember right now but nevertheless still treasure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You may think that there aren&#8217;t too much memories. Sorry, I&#8217;m not the kind of person who would write a piece of <del>shit<\/del>\u00a0facebook\u00a0note and tag every one and say how much I treasure them. No, every bone in my body says that&#8217;s not the way I treasure things. The (fox in the) Little Prince says <em><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">&#8220;It is only with the heart that one can see rightly;\u00a0what is essential is invisible to the eye&#8221;<\/span>.<\/em> I concur. How I describe memories in text is not important; it&#8217;s how I remember them that&#8217;s important.<\/p>\n<p>But of course, the goal of this site is to describe <em>my thoughts in plain text<\/em>. That&#8217;s why I&#8217;ll briefly tell what I&#8217;ve done in the last two days prior to my leaving:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Packing, packing, packing<\/strong><br \/>\nI spent\u00a0quite a lot of time packing. I&#8217;ve finished just now: 8 boxes and 4 red-white-blue bags; these are five-year-worth of memories. And I also gave out quite a lot of stuff, and made a little contribution in promoting oral health.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/2012\/08\/28\/last-times\/img_4339\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-149 noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-149\" title=\"Packing\" src=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IMG_4339-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IMG_4339-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IMG_4339-150x150@2x.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/2012\/08\/28\/last-times\/d_120828_4\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-163\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-163\" title=\"Oral hygiene products\" src=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_4-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_4-150x150@2x.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dinner at Fusion<\/strong><br \/>\nOne doesn&#8217;t usually graduate alone; Cathy is moving out too.

Originally we wanted to go to <a title=\"Safety Stop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.openrice.com\/restaurant\/sr2.htm?shopid=50650\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Safety Stop<\/a> once more. Unfortunately for some reason it didn&#8217;t open on Sunday; the same was true for <a title=\"\u7cd6\u75f4\u8c46\" href=\"http:\/\/www.openrice.com\/restaurant\/sr2.htm?a=1&amp;shopid=18042\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u7cd6\u75f4\u8c46<\/a>. We ended up going to \u751c\u54c1\u5802, which was still good, albeit meaning less to us. We also had a last late night walk in the campus, which we&#8217;ve always enjoyed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/2012\/08\/28\/last-times\/d_120828_2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-156\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-156\" title=\"Memo's\" src=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_2-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_2-150x150@2x.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_2-300x300@2x.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/2012\/08\/28\/last-times\/d_120828_3\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-155\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-155\" title=\"Night at HKU\" src=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_3-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_3-150x150@2x.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dinner at Fusion<\/strong><br \/>\nOf course, a large part of my hall life is related to <a title=\"Fusion Cafe\" href=\"http:\/\/www.openrice.com\/restaurant\/sr2.htm?shopid=20254\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fusion<\/a>. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s natural that I&#8217;d like to spend my last dinner at Fusion. It didn&#8217;t disappoint me &#8212; my favourite dish, seafood paella, was there. For one moment I thought I should say a proper goodbye to them; but I just couldn&#8217;t. That&#8217;s not me. I should always remember my gratitude to them, because their food has really cheered me up a lot during the darkest days in my life. I hope when I come back some day, it&#8217;ll still be there.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/2012\/08\/28\/last-times\/d_120828_5\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-165\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-165\" title=\"Fusion\" src=\"http:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_5-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_5-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_5-150x150@2x.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_5.jpg 800w, https:\/\/anzyme.com\/theone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/d_120828_5-300x300@2x.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s the end of August.
