Sharing
Skipped a renal bedside teaching in Nethersole Hospital today, just to go back my high school for a sharing session in the morning assembly. Yeh, the opportunistic cost is high (it might be the one and only one bedside teaching on the beloved kidneys in the year...), but there is no regret speaking for the school that have developed and moulded the present James Chow.

失去了什麼?
以下的真人真事令我明白現在的青少年失去了什麼。

Drupal.org approaching 1,000,000 nids!

網癮
朋友阿強( 假名，像黃子華棟篤笑時常提及的阿強，不必深究)換了部智能手機，join 了個無限上網plan，便開始染上網癮，尤其是facebook癮，朋友聚會時，總見他不時用手指在手機面掃
