Bidding farewell to 80 students majoring in MA in international journalism at HK Baptist University

Bidding farewell  (送別)  to 80 students majoring in （專修） MA in international journalism （國際新聞學碩士）at HK Baptist University

It was an emotional moment  (激动) for me over the weekend as I said goodbye to 80 students who majored in international journalism and business and financial journalism in a program that I am the director （主任）. In a private club in Austin Road, Kowloon, on Sunday night, we sang songs and played games. I was happy to see them mature （成熟） over the past year but sad that I might not see many of them from now on. At the party I sang Cheung Tak-lan’s song  “相識也是緣份 （note 1）”

相識也是緣份　你莫再三強求 無謂情自困　重逢又離別
你不必悔恨　好夢豈能當真 誰又會願意　永守誓盟
共你終生相好 見一次面能共結合永相親
風花雪月原是過日晨
分手也是緣份　你莫再三強求 祈望他憐憫　誰人重情義你不必痛恨 天下假情幻似真　誰又會料到 每一段情代價應該幾高
每一個夢留下怨恨有幾分 生於世上原是寄塵

Note 1: 緣份（或緣分）=fate or chance that brings people together （pre-destined relationship）

        佛教意思是命運= destiny

Do you believe in fate? Have a nice day!
