Hong Kong Airport w/ my Little Lamb & luggages
I arrived in Hong Kong safely and right away feel the humidity and hot Summer weather in this cosmopolitan city. Hong Kong is a dense populated urban area whereas people seem to be very busy in their work and do almost everything in a fast pace. My flight was really good and got to watch a movie titled: "The Lady", which is about Aung San Suu Kyi struggle as she was trying to introduce democracy to Burma. The movie depicts how she sacrifices her personal and family life to help the other Burmese people. What a great courage and life example to live. I've always admire those who can put aside personal needs for the benefit of others.
I've enjoyed the privileged of living in the U.S with much freedom of speech, expression one thought, protection from government, and many others. At a personal level, moving to Hong Kong is actually leaving my comfort zone and accepting "The Un-Known" future of what this place will do to me. Academic journey is one thing, but cultural exposure is another thing. I am thankful to be in Hong Kong as it is a place where so many things are going on at once. I can see how rapid this city evolved from the first time I visited this place back in 1989. It is a new journey, a new adventure, and I can only do my best to embrace it with an open heart and open mind with the hope that my study will benefit others beyond it benefit me.

note: Thank you so much for my loving parents who always support whatever I do even though often times they may not understand what I do or plan. I know that my success belongs to you guys and even though if I fail, you'll always accept me as who I am.
