Prosperians 昕物 Vol.9

What is Prosperians? In the CityU Student Residence community, or inside HSBC Prosperity Hall, you may often heard of this word “Prosperians”. Actually, do you know what is “Prosperians” ? Prosperians can be abstract. It may refer to an identity. As we are all living in the HSBC Prosperity Hall, we call ourselves Prosperians. It represents a sence of belongings to the Hall. We treat the Hall as our home and we share a strong sense of pride as Prosperians. Prosperians can be concrete. Just like the English name of this annual magazine is also called Prosperians. The intention of producing the annual magazine is to familiarize Prosperians with the history, culture and recent developments of the Prosperity Hall. It provides a medium for current prosperians to recall their treasured memories and for new residents to experience the warmth and honor of living in the Prosperity Hall. 製作《昕物》的目的是要讓“業昕人”增加對業昕堂的認識, 瞭解其歷史、文化等各方面的發展,藉此讓已在業昕堂住了一 定時間的宿生重溫和懷緬我們的點滴累積,也讓剛搬進來的宿 生感受住在業昕堂的溫馨和作為業昕人的驕傲。

Editor’s Note Thank you for reading the 9th volume of “Prosperians《昕物》” Hall 2 is a big family with members from different cultures and backgrounds. Yet, it is lucky for us to be brought together in this residence hall where we collaborate to create a more harmonious “home” for ourselves. Although the feeling of being a Prosperian is beyond words, the passion of our residents is revealed between the lines. In Hall 2, we organized wide range of events from dessert gatherings to Annual Dinner. Hall cultures and traditions were developed to pass on our Prosperity Spirit. Prosperians serves as a remembrance of our prosperous hall life. No matter you are an ex-Prosperian, a current Prosperian or a potential Prosperian, we hope our precious memories in Hall 2 can be shared with you through this magazine. Life in this hall is full of smiles and tears. Every memory would be our treasure. Whether it is dining with hall-mates, going out for desserts or fighting against assignment deadline together, we hope this magazine could help you to reminisce the old days here and make you smile. :) 2 Vote of thanks should be given to everyone who have involved in the publication, no matter your contribution was to the content, design, or just being interviewed. The hard work of the editorial team was indispensable.

DOWNING I did an interview with two reporters from Hall 2 last week. Are you curious what have we talked about? Here is the script they sent back to me! Let’s have a look!

ROLE Hall Master RESIDENCE 12A The Residence Master is the overall in-charge of the hall. Dr. Kevin Downing has been our hall master and lives in the top floor of the hall for six years. The main role of him is to provide support, advice and guidance to the activities of the hall. He is assisted by a group of Residence Tutors.

WHAT IS THE MOST IMPRESSIVE EVENT FOR YOU IN HALL2? The most impressive event for me is the annual high table dinner. I get to see so many of my students from the hall, dressing in beautiful dresses and coming in nice suit during the dinner. This makes me realize that they are soon going to work as professionals and make me feel proud of my students. I can meet alumni and catch up with them as well.

There are other former residents that come back as alumni to the high table dinner as well. I always feel good to see all of them. Yet, I felt sad to see them sometimes. They seemed to be so tired and exhausted from work and miss the time when they were in Hall 2. I think keeping up with old students is good. There are always exciting stories that I can get from them. One of alumni, 6KDZQ KDV ZRUNHG IURP EHLQJ D EDUULVWHU WR EHLQJ D ¿UHPDQ

WHAT IS THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF HALL 2 THAT YOU ANTICIPATED? To begin with, Hall 2 has to stay homely and friendly to foster understanding of each other. Still, we can have more connection with other halls. For example, we have music practice with hall 9 since last year. It’s a nice combination since I have been the acting hall master of hall 9 for a year. DO YOU HAVE ANY WORDS FOR PROSPERIANS? I am proud to be the hall master of Hall 2. I believe we’re the EHVW KDOO LQ D QLFH ZD\ DQ\ZD\ :H DUH VWURQJ LQ FRPSHWLWLRQ and participate in many events. May I take this chance to thanks all resident tutors and the residence association for all their hard work. I wish to thanks for the residents here as well.

Like any expatriates, some days you do get homesick, however, I always bump into fellow hall mates and all those feelings vanish as we participate in the various hall activities together. Everyone in our hall is so friendly and outgoing, it is always nice to see all the residents looking out for one another. You can totally feel the warmth of a family within our hall, especially the lively atmosphere in between the hallways and the ongoing events in common rooms. I am very grateful and proud to be a part of Hall 2.

I appreciate Hall 2 as it offers me a colorful residential life. Then, I noticed that I could do more to organize and help the RA improve the activities, so I applied to be the councilor. In that position, I think we can do better in the activities through attracting the mainland students and exchange students. To deal with the daily affairs is one of the duties of residence tutor, in the process of handling them, I understand the HM, RTs, RAs and Councilors’ responsibilities are so heavy.

Living abroad has never been such a memorable experience for me. As an exchange student at CityU for one semester, I was grateful to be offered a place in Hall of Residence 2. The environment was so good and hall mates around me were helpful and caring. The hall master rendered me assistance when I needed it and I want to thank Dr Downing through this opportunity. Hall 2’s culture has been strong and I am honored to be part of it. Activities like weekly dessert nights, KRWSRW DQG PDKMRQJ VHVVLRQV PDGH P\ VWD\ LQ KDOO UHDOO\ ZDUP DQG ¿OOHG ZLWK IXQ PDNLQJ PH IHHO OHVV KRPHVLFN )ORRU PDWHV VKRZHG PH QRW MXVW DURXQG WKH campus but also around Hong Kong, bringing me to places with delicious Dimsum and attractions such as Ocean Park.

每幢宿舍都會有自己的文化,各個樓層都會有自己的相處方式。這是我住 了年半宿舍更深的體會。我們不會通宵達旦的玩樂,但會一大清早到東涌 行山,感受”日落”之美。今年的二樓繼續是文化交薈的,進進出出的韓 國人讓我更了解他們的文化,同時也可一嘗正宗的印度咖哩(但口味之重不 是一般人能夠承受=__=)。我喜歡這裡,因為這裡的人和生活模式。即使 在生活遇到不快,回宿倒頭大睡,然後到交誼室嘻嘻哈哈又是一天。希望 在餘下的日子能夠創造更多回憶,充實大家的大學生活!! ^0^ Intermediate Member

作為一年級生,第一次離開家庭的居住生活,投入 HALL2 2樓,起初的 時間都戰戰兢兢,害怕難以適應獨立的生活,幸好我在宿舍認識到一班 朋友,大家一齊食飯,一齊釋放毒氣(玩電腦遊戲),由一開始緊張、陌生 的感覺變得漸漸親切及輕鬆。作為樓主,責任感的擔子令我更能夠認識 不同的宿生以及提高我不同方面的能力。此外,多次的處女下海之作亦在 HALL2 2樓發生,包括準備糖水會,打麻雀等等,當初的緊張及期待難以 用筆墨形容,希望每一位宿生都可以有相同的感受,認識真真正正的大學 生活,為自己留下一個難忘的回憶。

In addition, on any given day, the kitchenette along with all the utensils are being constantly being used in a diverse cuisines and styles. Every Thursday, the occupants gather in the common room for “Dessert Night”.

對我黎講 HALL 2 係一個好NICE同好WARM既地方, 我上年十月先搬入 HALL所以無得玩 HALL OCAMP, 本身以為無玩 OCAMP 就好難融入大 家既圈子,但原來一樣可以好快就同 FLOORMATE 熟絡, 亦都識到其他層 既人。有時見到 COMMON ROOM 有紙牌同麻雀比賽, 黎自唔同層既人 一齊玩 GAME 真係有種大家庭既感覺, 有時即使只係企係隔離觀戰都好有 氣氛。另外一個好 NICE 既地方就一定係保安啦, 大家都識鈴姐啦, 佢會 成日同人打招呼同講笑, 仲成日叫人唔記得帶房卡就去幫襯佢。最犀利係 佢會記得住 HALL 2 既同學啲名, 每晚返 HALL 打招呼就變成習慣, 雖然 住左 HALL 2 唔係好耐,但都係大學生涯其中一塊精彩既拼圖!

在充滿太多故事的大學生活里,宿舍,對於每個人都是一個難以割捨的符 號。 這是我住在五樓的第三個年頭,也是最後一個年頭。如果要把 Hall 2 比作是一個溫暖的大家庭,那麼五樓便是我最溫馨和私密的小房 間。大陸生,本地生還有交換生,總是能和睦相處,相互交流,也算是為 全球化做出貢獻了吧。 宿舍的意義不僅僅在於你的日常起居,還在於它決 定了你大學期間最好的朋友是哪些。最後,希望‘五角大樓’的優良傳統 可以一直傳承下去。 Senior Member

能夠畢業之前入住 Hall2,真的很開心!(小妹第一次申請入唔到,T.T) 除咗傳說中 Hall 2 有“最齊全的common room”,我亦感受到 Hall 2 的住家氣氛。好幸運自己入住八樓,有“發”的好意頭之餘,我更加喜歡 與 floor mate 在一起的時光,好有大家庭的 feel 。尤其對遠在他鄉的我 來講,這份“家”的親切特別珍貴。希望有機會一直住到畢業,大家且行 且珍惜。八樓是最好的! Junior Member

轉眼間便在 HALL 2 住了差不多兩年了,往年在九樓認識的人大多都走 了。可幸的是,今年九樓有很多活躍的新人住了進來,令整層的氣氛都比 往年更為熱鬧。可惜的是,他們很多都是一隻隻夜鬼,每每到了零晨三四 點都還在麻將耍樂或是毒在一起打機,令我的睡眠時間減少了很多。縱然 如此,能住在 HALL2 9/F 是開心的,因為這裡的人真的很樂於助人,你 需要甚麼,只要在走廊大叫一聲,定有人會來助你,希望在我明年離去 後,這裡可以保持著這種良好的風氣。 Intermediate Member

Last year, I have been the member of the Residents’ Association Executive Committee of Hall 2. I have earned great experience during that time. Now I would just apply those experiences learnt before to contribute Hall 2 continuously and help the Executive Committee “Equal 2” because “Stand on the shoulder of giants” is that what I believe. It is not that easy for me to be a good chairperson, since the responsibility of council chairperson is quite heavy to me DQG LW LV QHFHVVDU\ IRU PH WR EH QHXWUDO DQG VHO‫ی‬HVV LQ EDODQFLQJ WKH GLIIHUHQW WKRXJKWV DQG LGHDV EHWZHHQ WKH council and the Executive Committee.

Hall 2 Council 15 March

Kelvin Yip Hello, I am Kelvin. For my hall life last year, I have participated in the Residents’ Association executive committee for organizing hall activities. That was a great time to communicate with different residents OLYLQJ RQ GLIIHUHQW ‫ی‬RRUV DQG RI FRXUVH ZRUNHG ZLWK 2morrow’s members. This year, I joined the public election and become a RA council member. What I want to do is to share my experience and feeling with the new committee members. To me, the relation between Ex-co and council is not superior/subordinate relationship. Some people might think council perform as a monitoring organization, control and hold absolute power of approving the proposal of Ex-co. However, what we actually do in Hall 2 is a little bit different. Councilors co-operate with Ex-co like colleagues to make the hall environment and atmosphere become better and better. In fact, I am very happy that there are many new residents joining the executive committee this year.

Hall 2 Council 15 March Jonathan So As a freshman in city u or Hall 2, I have never expected to be a councilor in Hall 2. My initial idea is to join the Resident Association as an Executive Committee. However, for some typical reasons, I gave up this though. Then Kuen, our chairperson of the council, found me and invited me to become D PHPEHU LQ WKH FRXQFLO $W ‫ۋ‬UVW , ZDV FXULRXV LQ the reason why I was invited, I am not sure that I FDQ IXO‫ۋ‬OO WKH H[SHFWDWLRQ RI RWKHUV DQG , IHOW ZRUU\ about that.

Kuen Wu 15 March I would like to thanks all the councilors Kelvin, Jonathan and Emily, because they usually bring some challenging and funny idea to me that I can do much better, without their support, I think I cannot be a competent chairperson. Lastly, I hope Equal 2 can make Hall2 much better by bring more creative idea to us and absorbing our previous experience and improve themselves to do much better.

Words from residents

Waking up here in Prosperity Hall, not only should you be ready to talk to a bunch of friends, you should also be ready to speak in trilingual because we have students from different countries! Prosperity Hall has always been well-known for its diversity and prosperity, which means that residents from different countries are amiable to each other and some of them even became best friends even though their residence here finished. Prosperity Hall provides residents not only the chance to meet more locals, but also the chance to meet non-locals, exchange students, broadeninging your horizons, granting you the once in a life time opportunity to immerse yourself in immensely different cultures all at once. In the next few pages, we have invited residents from different backgrounds, an exchange student from America, a student from mainland China and a student from Hong Kong. Together they will show you how awesome residence life here in Prosperity Hall can be.

內地生怎麼看 編:Reeve @ 1002B 李:李望 @ 906A 編:你一開始的時候為甚麼會選擇業昕堂?有甚麼特別的原因嗎? 李:也沒甚麼特別的原因,是SRO安排的。不過我相信這是個意外,是個巧合,是個緣份。 編:你有參加過任何由業昕堂宿生會舉辦的活動嗎?為甚麼會參加呢?還有你覺得它們怎麼樣? 李:第一個是一開始的迎新營。我參加的原因是因為在大堂的hall莊都非常熱情,邀請我參加,弄得我都不 好意思拒絕了。其次就是我覺得我一開始來到香港,甚麼都不懂,有一群local願意還有這麼主動的去幫我更 好了解香港,我覺得非常好,所以我就參加了。我覺得這個迎新營非常好,給了我一個很美好的回憶,因為 對於我這個剛來香港的內地生來講,這三天能帶我去了香港不同的地方,令我能夠更了解香港的文化還有風 景特色,這是非常好的。我也認識了很多不同的朋友,我很多的組員更是現任的Hall莊,例如說Henry還有 Yau Yau。不過令我印象最深刻的是我的組媽阿珊,她是一個非常熱情的人,所以我也玩得很開心。 第二個是宿舍舉辦的歌唱比賽。因為我和我室友Moon都熱愛音樂還有唱歌,我覺得我們的合作和配合很蠻 不錯,所以就參加了。最後的結果也挺意外的,竟然能拿到最佳組合獎,實在是非常驚喜。 編:那你有參加聯宿舉辦的比賽嗎? 李:有,我有在聯宿舉辦的晚宴的表演環節。本來是我室友Moon先參加的,他唱歌非常好,所以我支持 他。之後他提議我們組一個組合上去,那我想,這種機會很難得,大一錯過了很可能就不會再有機會了,所 以最終我有參加了。我覺得非常激動,因為能夠在一個這麼大的場合上唱歌,實在難得! 編:你平常在宿友會做些甚麼? 李:除了休息和看書之外,因為我是普通話辯論隊的隊員,我常在業昕堂地下的書軒和我的隊員開會。那書 房的環境很好又漂亮,非常舒服。 編:你覺得業昕堂的宿生怎麼樣? 李:首先就是迎新營認識到的組員,我跟他們的關係也很不錯。還有就是九樓的宿生,大家都很nice很 熱情,我有問題他們都會主動幫忙。譬如說,我上學期的時候有修一個廣東話課,當時我要做一個oral presentation,我會寫那些字但我不會講,所以我就請local的同學幫我,他們都非常熱心。 編:對你而言,在業昕堂發生過甚麼事是你最難忘的? 李:第一一定是迎新營,剛才已經講過了。還有就是九樓的糖水會,因為我可以在其中和宿友學到很多還有 認識更多。之後就是聯宿的乒乓球比賽吧!很可惜那一次不能繼續晉級,不過我下一年一定會再參加的! 編:總括而言,你覺得業昕堂怎麼樣? 李:我覺得非常好。其實這是我第一次住宿舍,還有離開家這麼久,不過我還是非常滿意現在在這裡的生 活!

《滙豐業昕堂落成十周年誌慶》對聯 (舍堂導師溫子祺撰、楊雯懿書,2011年) 文本— 上款:「滙豐業昕堂落成十周年誌慶」 下款:「歲次辛卯舍堂導師仝敬立」 上聯:「業精於勤 縱覽詩書希聖哲」 下聯:「昕始乎夕 放懷中外究科研」 對聯本為辛卯年(2011年)春聯,後適逢舍堂即將 踏入落成十周年誌慶,遂重書並製成卷軸,恭掛於大 堂,以資紀念。 上下聯首字嵌入本舍堂名稱。上聯「業精於勤」,典 出唐韓愈《進學解》:「業精於勤荒於嬉」。「縱」 ,解廣泛。「詩書」,以儒家五經中的《詩經》和 《尚書》代指世間群書。「希」者,仰慕也。 下聯「昕」有黎明、晨曦義。「夕」是黃昏、晚上。 黎明由晚上而來,代表每日周而復始,循環不息。 學業和事業,要勤力才會成功,相反只顧玩樂,人就 會荒怠。透過廣泛閱讀有益的書籍,仰慕聖賢哲人的 行為和思想,從而增進知識和提高品德。 由白晝到晚上,晚上又到黎明,日夜雖然循環不息, 時間卻每分每秒的流逝。實在需要把握時間,孜孜不 倦地擴闊眼界,接觸中外先進的科研知識,才能卓立 於變化萬千的新時代。

“Chinese couplets for celebrating the 10th anniversary establishment of HSBC Prosperity Hall” (Composed by Residence Tutor George Wan and Written by Wenyi Yang, 2011) The couplets were originally composed for celebrating 2011’s Chinese New Year. Because of the 10th anniversary establishment of the HSBC Prosperity Hall at 2012, the couplets were re-written. The name of our Hall in Chinese are filled in the first character of both upper and lower couplet. Chinese classics sentences are cited in the couplets. It is hoped that the couplets can remind our residents: - Hard working on academic and future career. Keep reading good books and classics, to think about what the ancient saints said and done, in order to enrich our knowledge and to enhance the moral standard. - Treasure the time, not to waste any second and minute. To have a good knowledge on science and technology for facing the great changes in the modern world.
