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)

【Jamie Oliver跟英式下午茶】

說到Jamie Oliver, 認識其大名將近廿年,
十多年前在CCTVB英文台有他的節目,
翻譯作《大城小廚》(The Naked Chef),
那生動、隨意、不修篇幅,
加上他那英文口音, 甚至說是Essex鄉音,
常被英國的名人(所謂的達官貴人)取笑,
他以不沉悶的手法去介紹菜式,
令我跟老姐都十分喜歡,
亦是當時用來訓練英文Listening的節目。

後來, 他很成功,
他寫意大利菜的食譜, 我都有收藏,
又開了連鎖餐廳Jamie's Italian,
甚至社企模式的Fifteen。
(多年前有特意在倫敦去支持，但已結業）

可惜是, 2017年開始餐廳傳出負債問題,
至2018年10月尾才由他自己個人注資13M鎊 (即1千3百萬鎊),
暫時令到餐廳不用倒閉, Jamie對於負債,
也只能說句「I don't know what happened」,
今次到英國的York (約克),
我能做的就是實際支持一下Jamie's Italian York,
食物的味道沒令我失望, 水準是OK的,
當然比起意大利吃貴一些,
但以一般英國食物水平而言是可以的, 不過據英國朋友說,
現在所有的Jamie's Italian都已經Game Over了,
而這次到英國品嚐Jamie's Italian, 也成了絕響。

之後, 到了英國傳統的Tea Room(茶室),
嘆杯正宗的英式西茶, 既然來到York (約克),
當然也要去一去百年老店Bettys下午茶
(全名叫Bettys Cafe Tea Rooms, 但明明才吃完Jamie's Italian),
手指尾就是要繞出來, 才有感覺的!!

「呵呵呵呵~~~你說是不是咧?? 呵呵~~!!」
不過, 說實在的, 英國的「奶茶」好難飲,
還是香港的「奶茶」好味道。

【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.

在日本很具高人氣的硬布丁，我們叫做「イタリアンプリン」意思為義式布丁。實際上是不是出自義大利並不清楚，但是這美味的味道真的很推薦初學者挑戰看看。
只需要材料混合然後放入烤箱蒸烤就可以，超級簡單美味。

濃濃的味道配上酒特別合適，當然作為下午茶也超搭喔！

『ㄧ大粒夫妻倆看疫情VoL.2 』今天我們會談到有關中國幫助義大利的議題 ～請大家不要過於放大，先不論先有雞還是先有蛋的問題，我們夫妻倆沒有任何褒貶，只是就這次的事件回答 🙇🏻‍♀️

自昨天放上了第ㄧ集之後收到了留言與私訊鼓勵真的非常感謝 ～
這集我們談的主題有 👇🏻

6. 你怎麽看義大利醫療系統 ？
What do you think about the Italian medical system?

7. 你怎麼看義大利政府這次面對疫情的反應與處理方式？
What do you think of the response and further reaction of Italian government when facing this epidemic?

8. 對於那張最近在網上的圖片(中國揹著義大利)有什麼看法？
What do you think of that picture (china is carring italy) that recently published online?

🙋🏻‍♀️ 再次聲明
影片內容完全只屬於我們夫妻倆的觀點 並不代表所有在義大利的台灣人或義大利人，請大家以一個比較開放的態度觀賞

義大利是一個共和國，在義大利有20個大區，每個大區分很多個省份，每個省份都有各自不同的文化、生活習慣、想法甚至是講話的語調、方言都不一樣，所以我們兩個討論的內容是針對就我們周遭的變化與整體得知的訊息討論，再加上家裡這位已旅外11年，所以以他眼裡所看義大利的觀點也不大一樣，所以請大家也不要太嚴格或偏激的看待這支影片~

#人妻再次MerMer - 針對影片中英文口音問題，請大家不要再挖苦我了🤷🏻‍♀️~~畢竟我在新加坡6年了，我的口音都不知變成哪來的(這邊沒有說新加坡英語怎麼樣喔!只是說因為在新加坡工作，每天遇到不同人種，要切換不同口音所以很混亂而已)還有我不是英文老師，對於文法沒那麼講究或熟透，還請(英文老師們)不要太FOCUS在文法，我現在講什麼文都很爛(包括中文)但是我老公聽得懂就好，我已經很滿足~謝謝大家包容

----------------------------------------------

💁🏻‍♀️你懂ㄧ大粒人妻的義式嗎？
🇮🇹Vlog 讓你從更日常的角度了解義大利喔！
