    University Night Life

    Hey guys!

    I'll be studying at HKU next semester and I was wondering what HK is like at night? I know this is a very vague question and I have read up a lot/asked many friends but I'm more interested about the nightclubs/bars. Are they expensive/worth the 150-300 HKD?

    ALSO I have a bright, curly bleach-blonde afro (such as that in my profile picture/attachment) of which i am unsure to cut. I think it'd be AWESOME to grow it out again this summer - to an acceptable length - but not sure how culturally adjusted/it shall fit into the HK culture. I don't want look to foreign but then again I'll stick out like a sore thumb regardless. Should I keep the mop-top? Cheers,


    DanO

    You're white american, the locals are chinese so you are going to look foreign whatever your hair. Don't worry about it.

    Drinks in bars/nightclubs are expensive here, you won't get very drunk on HK$150

    I used to run marathons a lot, after all that training you are too knackered for anything. It does build up stamina for later in life though
