沒有托福成績怎麼申請入學？

校長面試時隨機抽考列印這道食譜（純文字版）: Grilled Eggplant Baba Ganoush，讓我讀了五分鐘文字食譜就現場考試。確認我能跟得上課程才過關。

文字食譜如下（重量不同比例差不多）雖然我沒吃過也沒聽過這道菜，但我還是順利通過考驗了。

有人認為我是國際學生學校加減收，其實你錯了。

不管你是哪裡來，學費都是將近50K美。

其他學生都有相關資歷依然入學進修，Choyce算是2021年才跳進餐飲認證（三月考上中餐，烘焙，西點執照）在全班經驗裡最薄弱，英文也不是母語的中文人，七月中才下定決心申請入學，九月七日壓線從台灣飛回來趕上開學的餐飲新人。

Ingredients

2 pounds Italian eggplant (about 4 medium or 2 large eggplants)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
3 Tablespoons tahini
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika (plus extra for garnish)
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (plus extra for garnish)

【盜竊特刊】偉大的藝術家都是「 賊」

在Netflix出品的大熱犯罪劇《怪盜羅蘋》（LUPIN）第一集的劇情中，才華橫溢、富有魅力的巴黎盜賊迪歐（Assane Diop）精心策劃了一場盜竊行動，企圖偷走在羅浮宮慈善拍賣會上出售的一條鑽石頸鍊。這條曾經被瑪麗皇后（Marie Antoinette）佩戴過的頸鍊被稱為「皇后頸鍊」。迪歐靠耍花招騙到了一份清潔工工作，從而摸清了博物館的保安系統。他說服當地三個為非作歹的高利貸集團成員進行盜竊，與此同時為自己偽造了另一個身分。他打算以科技大亨的身分參加拍賣，以最高價格拍到這條頸鍊。

盜竊行動當然未能成功。這幾名不法之徒試圖出賣迪歐，但迪歐總是提前計劃一切，把他們騙得團團轉。迪歐故意讓同伴帶著假頸鍊逃出去，陷入警員的重重包圍。他把真頸鍊悄悄塞入垃圾桶，隨後以清潔工的身分返回現場取走垃圾桶。結果可想而知，「皇后頸鍊」仍在垃圾桶內。迪歐把頸鍊裝進垃圾袋，泰然自若地經過博物館的保安防線，走進巴黎的夜色中。

羅蘋的故事曾經多次被搬上銀幕：1970年代有一部關於羅蘋的法國電視劇廣受歡迎，2014年還上映了一部包含超自然元素，以羅蘋為主角的電影。盜竊犯罪電影被翻拍的次數比其他電影類別都多。成功的美國盜竊犯罪類電影包括2001年的《盜海豪情》（Ocean’s Eleven，1960年放映的第一版由Frank Sinatra 主演），以及2013年的《天羅盜網》（The Italian Job，改編自1969年並由Michael Caine 主演的英國電影）。

就像許多盜竊犯罪題材的電影和電視劇一樣，《怪盜羅蘋》常常需要觀眾主動暫停對某些超現實元素的懷疑。但是正如法國電影明星奧瑪希（Omar Sy）扮演的迪歐經常用一些巧妙的手段，引開人們的注意力然後盜竊一樣，觀眾們也陶醉於巴黎漂亮的景色，精良的拍攝質素，以及引人入勝的管弦樂配樂。還有奧瑪希，他的表演讓最不可思議的情節都變得值得欣賞。「他的笑容讓他可以逍遙法外，」執導了兩集最新《怪盜羅蘋》的導演伯爾納（Ludovic Bernard）說。——譯 王湛

【Joshua Wong speaking to the Italian Senate】#意大利國會研討會演說 —— 呼籲世界在大學保衛戰一週年後與香港人站在同一陣線

中文、意大利文演說全文：https://www.patreon.com/posts/44167118

感謝開創未來基金會（Fondazione Farefuturo）邀請，讓我透過視像方式在意大利國會裡舉辦的研討會發言，呼籲世界繼續關注香港，與香港人站在同一陣線。

意大利作為絕無僅有參與一帶一路發展的國家，理應對中共打壓有更全面的理解，如今正值大學保衛戰一週年，以致大搜捕的時刻，當打壓更為嚴峻，香港更需要世界與我們同行。

為了讓各地朋友也能更了解香港狀況，我已在Patreon發佈當天演說的中文、英文和意大利文發言稿，盼望在如此困難的時勢裡，繼續讓世界知道我們未曾心息的反抗意志。

【The Value of Freedom: Burning Questions for Hong Kongers】

Good morning. I have the privilege today to share some of my thoughts and reflections about freedom, after taking part in social activism for eight years in Hong Kong. A movement calling for the withdrawal of the extradition law starting from last year had escalated into a demand for democracy and freedom. This city used to be prestigious for being the world’s most liberal economy, but now the infamous authoritarian government took away our freedom to election, freedom of assembly, freedom of expression and ideas.

Sometimes, we cannot avoid questioning the cause we are fighting for, the value of freedom. Despite a rather bleak prospect, why do we have to continue in this struggle? Why do we have to cherish freedom? What can we do to safeguard freedom at home and stay alert to attacks on freedom? In answering these questions, I hope to walk through three episodes in the previous year.

Turning to 2020, protests are not seen as frequently as they used to be on the media lens, partly because of the pandemic, but more importantly for the authoritarian rule. While the world is busy fighting the pandemic, our government took advantage of the virus to exert a tighter grip over our freedom. Putting the emergency laws in place, public assemblies in Hong Kong were banned. Most recently, a rally to support press freedom organized by journalists was also forbidden. While many people may ask if it is the end of street activism, ahead of us in the fight for freedom is another battleground: the court and the prison.

Freedom Fighters in Courtrooms and in Jail

Part of the huge cost incurred in the fight for freedom and democracy in Hong Kong is the increasing judicial casualties. As of today, more than 10 thousand people have been arrested since the movement broke out, more than a hundred of them are already locked up in prison. Among the 2,300 protestors who are prosecuted, 700 of them may be sentenced up to ten years for rioting charges.

Putting these figures into context, I wish to tell you what life is like, as a youngster in today’s Hong Kong. I was humbled by a lot of younger protestors and students whose exceptional maturity are demonstrated in courtrooms and in prison. What is thought to be normal university life is completely out of the question because very likely the neighbour next door or the roommate who cooked you lunch today will be thrown to jail on the next.

I do prison visits a few times a month to talk to activists who are facing criminal charges or serving sentences for their involvement in the movement. It is not just a routine of my political work, but it becomes my life as an activist. Since the movement, prison visits has also become the daily lives of many families.

But it is always an unpleasant experience passing through the iron gates one after one to enter the visitors’ room, speaking to someone who is deprived of liberty, for a selflessly noble cause. As an activist serving three brief jail terms, I understand that the banality of the four walls is not the most difficult to endure in jail. What is more unbearable is the control of thought and ideas in every single part of our daily routine enforced by the prison system. It will diminish your ability to think critically and the worst of it will persuade you to give up on what you are fighting for, if you have not prepared it well. Three years ago when I wrote on the first page of prison letters, which later turned into a publication called the ‘Unfree Speech’, I was alarmed at the environment of the prison cell. Those letters were written in a state in which freedom was deprived of and in which censorship was obvious. It brings us to question ourselves: other than physical constraints like prison bars, what makes us continue in the fight for freedom and democracy?

Mutual Support to activists behind-the-scene

The support for this movement is undiminished over these 17 months. There are many beautiful parts in the movement that continue to revitalise the ways we contribute to this city, instead of making money on our own in the so-called global financial centre. In particular, it is the fraternity, the mutual assistance among protestors that I cherished the most.

As more protestors are arrested, people offer help and assistance wholeheartedly -- we sit in court hearings even if we don’t know each other, and do frequent prison visits and write letters to protesters in detention. In major festivals and holidays, people gathered outside the prison to chant slogans so that they won’t feel alone and disconnected. This is the most touching part to me for I also experienced life in jail.

The cohesion, the connection and bonding among protestors are the cornerstone to the movement. At the same time, these virtues gave so much empowerment to the mass public who might not be able to fight bravely in the escalating protests. These scenes are not able to be captured by cameras, but I’m sure it is some of the most important parts of Hong Kong’s movement that I hope the world will remember.

I believe this mutual support transcends nationality or territory because the value of freedom does not alter in different places. More recently, Twelve Hongkong activists, all involved in the movement last year, were kidnapped by China’s coastal guard when fleeing to Taiwan for political refugee in late-August. All of them are now detained secretly in China, with the youngest aged only 16. We suspect they are under torture during detention and we call for help on the international level, putting up #SAVE12 campaign on twitter. In fact, how surprising it is to see people all over the world standing with the dozen detained protestors for the same cause. I’m moved by activists in Italy, who barely knew these Hong Kong activists, even took part in a hunger strike last month calling for immediate release of them. This form of interconnectivity keeps us in spirit and to continue our struggle to freedom and democracy.

Understanding Value of freedom in the university battle
A year ago on this day, Hong Kong was embroiled in burning clashes as the police besieged the Polytechnic University. It was a day we will not forget and this wound is still bleeding in the hearts of many Hong Kongers. A journalist stationed in the university at that time once told me that being at the scene could only remind him of the Tiananmen Square Massacre 31 years ago in Beijing. There was basically no exit except going for the dangerous sewage drains.

That day, thousands of people, old or young, flocked to districts close to the university before dawn, trying to rescue protestors trapped inside the campus. The reinforcements faced grave danger too, for police raided every corner of the small streets and alleys, arresting a lot of them. Among the 800+ arrested on a single day, 213 people were charged with rioting. For sure these people know there will be repercussions. It is the conscience driving them to take to the streets regardless of the danger, the conscience that we should stand up to brutality and authoritarianism, and ultimately to fight for freedoms that are guaranteed in our constitution. As my dear friend, Brian Leung once said, ‘’Hong Kong Belongs to Everyone Who Shares Its Pain’’. I believe the value of freedom is exemplified through our compassion to whom we love, so much that we are willing to sacrifice the freedom of our own.

Defending freedom behind the bars

No doubt there is a terrible price to pay in standing up to the Beijing and Hong Kong government. But after serving a few brief jail sentences and facing the continuing threat of harassment, I learnt to cherish the freedom I have for now, and I shall devote every bit what I have to strive for the freedom of those who have been ruthlessly denied.

The three episodes I shared with you today -- the courtroom, visiting prisoners and the battle of university continue to remind me of the fact that the fight for freedom has not ended yet. In the coming months, I will be facing a maximum of 5 years in jail for unauthorized assembly and up to one ridiculous year for wearing a mask in protest. But prison bars would never stop me from activism and thinking critically.

I only wish that during my absence, you can continue to stand with the people of Hong Kong, by following closely to the development, no matter the ill-fated election, the large-scale arrest under National Security Law or the twelve activists in China. To defy the greatest human rights abusers is the essential way to restore democracy of our generation, and the generation following us.
