On the Press: 打開衣櫃解構消費模式
今日《明報·通通識》版刊登了一個好有意義的專題「打開衣櫃 解構消費模式」。其實當已認識一段時間的通識版記者 Polly (她本身已是潮女一個)跟我提及這個專題構思,確是很高興原來教育版會做抽離校園、貼近年青人生活的題材﹗她認為買衫裝扮是每個年青人都會做的事,當中有很多具消費模式反思意義的訊息。談到這一點,我已經變成一個 chatterbox 喇。

Let’s be material-wise!

Helsinki’s Cleaning Day
Too busy for blog surfing this week, and I suddenly realised it’s all over my blogosphere – Helskini’s Cleaning Day. It sounds like something about sanitation but nah, it’s the world’s first CLEANING DAY when the entire city flushes its unwanted goods out by donating/selling them on the street. It’s such an interesting idea that… Continue reading Helsinki’s Cleaning Day
At School: Our Lady of the Rosary Church
It was this Wednesday when we went to the lovely girls’ school to visit the pop-up swap there. It is Our Lady of the Rosary Church, Hong Kong’s first secondary school hosting swap events, and it was with the help of JupYeah (not much did I do though). So they set up a few tables… Continue reading At School: Our Lady of the Rosary Church
