A Cat That Is No Longer With Us LayLay (J&K HIM LAY LAY) was a cat that is no longer with us. He was one of the four cats: SiSi , DorDor, BearBear, and LayLay. After his birth, LayLay was very weak. Although the mother cat was experienced and skilled at raising kittens, frequently exposing her belly for the kittens to nurse, LayLay was so weak that he couldn't even muster the strength to crawl to her nipples to feed.

Our Ms. Siobhan Haughey：J&K HIM Sze Sze  Over the past five years, Hong Kong has experienced many heartbreaking and distressing events, from social movements to the global pandemic, leading to a buildup of negative emotions among the populace. However, during the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, Hong Kong's "Flying Fish," Ms. Siobhan Haughey, brought a moment of exhilaration to the city by winning two silver medals. As a local with Irish heritage, she had the option to represent Ireland but chose to represent Hong Kong instead. In her media interview following her victories, she expressed: "People have often asked me why I don’t represent Ireland. I remember my teammates were always surprised to learn I was representing Hong Kong. I told them I could choose to represent Ireland, but I was born in Hong Kong, I live in Hong Kong, and I am always connected to Hong Kong. I feel proud to represent Hong Kong." Additionally, she shared her thoughts on facing setbacks: "Yo...
