-day 131-

Hey all :)

So we had our Student Ambassadors Superpass Dinner last Friday.
And it's super fun! x)

So, what is Superpass anyways?
It's called '勁過' - ging gwo in Cantonese, literally means strength pass.
And I think it could only be found in Hong Kong, or even only in HKU! xD
It's done every time we're going to face our finals, to wish each other to super-pass the exam.
Super interesting x) At first, we get to pick a 紅包 (red envelopes or angpao lol)

So cute! That's why I picked this one :p

And here's what's inside:

What?? Coins??? (and it's only 1.3 HKD!)

I was freaking confused until one of my friends explained what it means.

個三 - go sam. It's the cantonese for that HKD 1.3; and it pretty much sounds like guo sam (過三) that means over three (YEAHHHH). And some will only get HKD 1.2… Means over two (aww….)

Super interesting, isn't it? LOL. But that's not all! xD

So, there's mainly three parts of the event:

1. Writing calligraphies - faat shu 法書 (if I'm not mistaken lol. It means your calligraphy)
So all of us were given a chance to write down calligraphies on a red paper; don't ask me how could I write xD. The phrases were:

過三爆四 - gwo sam baau sei

（pass 3 exceed 4 - refers to our GPA. And our max GPA is 4.3 anyway)

(name)勁過 - (name) ging gwo

(wishing someone to super pass the exam)

And here's mine:

I know it's barely readable LOL 

So, here comes the second part: FOOOOOOOOOOOD!

And it was 好 味 (hou mei - means delicious) x). Best part?

HAHAHAHA

Well, there's one more interesting thing about this: there's a dish that we may not eat by scooping it.

It's a cashew - mixed with pork. I forgot what and why; will tell you once I could find the meaning LOL.

Last but not least: the most essential part of the superpass:

Chopping the roasted pork!

And the porks were still like this:

Cute piggy.. Feel bad for you D:

Another belief here: we have to chop it in one try; it's like a 'clean pass' or something lol.

And I did it ;) HAHA

Super scary. Was afraid that I might not be able to chop it in one swing; or even worse: the knife might fly off my hands *hiiiy*

Some failed to do it; and ended up 'minced' the pork in their attempt to chop it. D:

This is something that you will definitely not find elsewhere~

Feeling so lucky to be able to join this :)

It was great night, Love it so much!

Thanks for reading this super long post anyways.

See you later!

So much love,

pieches~
