Short summary of things I’ve done so far in HK, bullet point style:

• Stayed at CUHK for 3 days, or rather, in a village to the west of CUHK. The campus is quite beautiful with excellent facilities.
• For the last few days, have been staying in an apartment next to the race-track in HK island. Very down-town I guess.
• Haven’t been doing much sight-seeing as Molly is preparing for her mid-terms. However, have been to some shopping malls, and anticipate some furious last-minute shopping activities today and tomorrow.
• Bought a Michael Crichton book, State of Fear, which is essentially a critique and attack on the conventional wisdom known as Global Warming. Again it’s controversial material, but that’s when Crichton is at his best. Finished his book basically in one go, and I’ve been inspired to do some more googling. It’s a very deep topic, maybe will write about it some time.
• Watched a couple of late-night junk films on Star Movies. And I do mean really junk films. Like lowest ratings I’ve ever handed out on my films list. Come to think it, I can’t see the logic in putting them in the list in the first place.
