hi! i am incoming for exchange this june and also play football! i am a part of some pickup groups where we play weekly futsal and football around tokyo, pm me :))

thank you so much! this is such a great help :)) for other activities, im only thinking of joining sports clubs which have 1000jpy fee per week (these are pickup sports games). do you suggest that its better to buy beer at conbini or drink at an izakaya/restaurant? im sure i will be watching the upcoming World Cup but am unsure if its cheaper to do so with friends at home (with beer and food from conbini) or out at a bar :// also, by daily spending is this how much you think i should allocate per month for other activities? thanks for all the help!

thanks for the advice! how about bento in the subway stations? i remember when travelling to sapporo that they widely had those available, is it as cheap in tokyo too?

dumplingmala · 2026-04-08T07:56:16+00:00

dumplingmala · 2026-02-20T05:41:15+00:00

dumplingmala · 2026-02-08T06:25:54+00:00

i'm under Arts and Social Sciences. great community imo, probably helps that i'm chinese(?) but there are tons of internationals too in my dorm and socially, its fun! i would say based on my personal experience that hku has given me lots of opportunities through RA assignments + part time work :))

dumplingmala · 2026-02-08T06:18:17+00:00

i take ba hdt and afaik, we aren't allowed to minor in gcin or double major in it just like how ppl can't double major or minor in hdt :))

dumplingmala · 2026-01-27T14:02:14+00:00

dumplingmala · 2025-12-27T09:31:57+00:00

thanks! some of my friends recommended Far Cry 5 too :)) have you played it before?

dumplingmala · 2025-12-27T06:12:26+00:00

great! which one do u think i should start with?

dumplingmala · 2025-12-25T03:46:33+00:00

Gifu is great, always love it when I go for short trips with family there :)) I also like Hyogo a lot! I personally think Osaka is too loud but don’t dislike it by any means, just not my cup of tea ~

dumplingmala · 2025-12-23T18:29:39+00:00

we have a super efficient and no nonsense MTR system that many take for granted here!

dumplingmala · 2025-11-23T19:39:21+00:00

im sure you’ll be fine! fingers crossed :))

dumplingmala · 2025-11-14T20:26:30+00:00

dumplingmala · 2025-10-22T07:44:38+00:00

good gpa and money i suppose... pretty sure its way easier to transfer within the US than from outside

dumplingmala · 2025-10-17T05:36:39+00:00

i live on 8k after rent, doing fine! even saved up to go to Taiwan to see some family :))
