About Me

My name is Helen, I am currently living in Sheffield, UK but born and raised in Hong Kong.

Through my written words, I hope to raise awareness of underrepresented groups in our society and reveal social injustice. 

One of my greatest goals is to travel around to explore what is happening in different countries. Often the news we see only covers a small fraction of our world, which leads to misunderstanding, prejudice and stereotypes. I would like to share my experiences and provide a brand-new point of view of this world we live in. 

Besides, I am fond of pop cultures and fitness.

Britain’s Lifeboat Visa Scheme to Rescue Hong Kong’s Youth: Successful or not?

Marcus Cheung, 22, came to the UK by himself about eight years ago to study in the Isle of Wight.

He loves watching the Premiere League, and enjoys going out for drinks with his mates during weekends like a British teen would do. He sees his future here, where he consider as his home besides Hong Kong, his actual hometown.

Despite spending more than one-third of his life in this country, he is yet to be a citizen.

About a year ago, the British government launched its lifeboat scheme, which is

Opinion: Drinking socials aren’t the best part of university life

“I’m not into club nights and bar crawls. Am I missing out on everything?” I used to constantly ask myself this question. I thought going to these events could get me to know more people, make more friends and relieve my anxiety once in a while. However, not missing out on anything didn’t make me any happier. Drunk socials aren’t always as delightful as I once believed.

Maybe a night out can get you to mingle with other people, but is it the only way to make friends? Being drunk doesn’t magical

Shoutout to my ex - thank you for teaching me self love

Breaking up with someone is never a fun experience. The moment you walk away from them, you’re all alone again. We might cry ourselves to sleep for a while, “accidentally” drunk dial them one lonely night, or we might start asking a lot of questions, doubting that if we made the wrong decision of leaving them.

Separating from your ex is not the end of the world. A failed relationship teaches us love –– how to love yourself.
