A small public library situated near my home, among the 30 public libraries in Hong Kong. Marcus is applying for a pilot position and he needs some urgent English tutorship, so I borrowed some references for him today. 12 years ago, I had my first job here: a librarian. After that, I have never walked into this library again. I was familiar with the desks, the shelves, the equipments and the setting. 12 years later, I'm shocked. New renovation, new shelves, new services, new equipments. I wandered around as a complete stranger. Suddenly, I recognized a staff there. The librarian. She's a bit older than me and she's STILL working there! I'm happy that I have read lots of books in this library. From children literature to romantic novels. From Chinese to English. From periodicals to academic references. From dong dong dong jumping life to klark klark klark decent steps.
