Crystal Wong T.Y. – Blessings from St. Petersburg, Russia International Youth Exchange Programme 2014-2015
Crystal Wong TY was admitted to the International Youth Exchange Programme 2014-2015 organized by Home Affairs Bureau and Commission on Youth. The programme included an eye-opening trip to Russia and Crystal was 1 of the 9 young delegates representing Hong Kong. In her sharing with visitors in HTYC Fun Fair 2014, she found the trip challenging, inspirational and definitely worthwhile. It has been a very fruitful excursion to her, she said, in widening her perspectives and preparing her for her tertiary studies in Hong Kong University (Laws).
Crystal was awarded Dr. Daisy Li Memorial Scholarship for her outstanding HKDSE Exam results 2014. (Prize presented by outstanding alumni Mr. Hui Man Kit, Solicitor Advocate)
Appendix: Crystal’s sharing on her studies for the HKDSE Exam 2014 ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. Crystal Wong TY (HKU, Bachelor of Laws, Best 6 = 36 points) Work hard --- the only key! ‘Work tops talents; work wins over smartness.’ That’s how I feel after the release of HKDSE Exam results. If you are going to be successful at anything, the key is: work hard. Public examinations are tough. However, we cannot escape from them. It is a process which leads us to our dreams. Along the path, we may fall down, we may feel helpless and alone, we may cry as we are too pressured, etc. Yet, we should never give up. Never ever tell ourselves that ‘I can’t’. Never deny our own abilities. Life is hard. Yet, don’t forget that we are backed up by lots of people like our family, our friends and our teachers. To be honest, the teachers in HTYC really contribute a lot to my present achievements. Do treasure their teachings and follow their guidance. They are experienced in different aspects. No worries! When you have a dream, you should protect it. Are you willing to sacrifice all temptations for your dream? I’m willing to and I believe all HTYC students can do so! Visualize your dream and go for it!
