Actually it can not be regard as the first touch, coz I've been to hk years before. However, I really hate to be travelling in such a group.
HKU is good enough for me, as I mentioned to Jenny, this is a hugh paradise, though without vegetables. The library, Flora Ho Sports center... They never disappoint u. My roommates and floormates in Lee Shau Kee Hall are also kind and of greatly helpful.
Language should be a problem to a new-comer like me, as Cantonese is a little bit difficult. Well for me, who has not developed the ability to understand NanjingHua, it's even tougher. It's a right place to practice my poor English I think, as now I have confidence to speak English aloud --- It's kinda embarrassing to "analyze" most HK local's so-called PUTONGHUA.
Well, not all the professors speak good English, if I can call all of them "English". They are all good teachers, but few know how to express their idea better in PPT. I realized that, Mr Deng Junhui is such a good PPT Maker as I reviewed his Lecture notes today.
