中學時我只看見一條路︰考好DSE上大學，受傳統和狹窄的思想所影響，很少看見自己。AAMCCS令我明白，遇到個人、社會等問題時，要懂得退一步觀察，擺脫固有觀念，冷靜地分析並解決問題。HKU SPACE CC內有不少良師助我提升能力，現在我成為大學生，並不是為了走完那條路，而是為了進一步提升能力，成為一個我渴望成為的自己。感謝HKU SPACE CC成為我人生旅途的
其中一站。

During the 2 years in the AAMCCS programme, I have met countless creative and unconventional people, including students, tutors and lecturers. They have inspired and reignited my passion for learning about everyday culture, from examining its dominant ideologies to discussing the common usage of memes or emojis. I am ready to explore more surprising and fascinating things in everyday life. 

It was frustrating that I did not achieve my goals in HKDSE. Yet, HKU SPACE CC and the AAMCCS programme have introduced to me a brand-new world with unique perspectives. The lectures developed my critical thinking skills, which not only apply to the coursework, but also my life target. After two years of precious progress, I strongly believe that I am fully equipped, and I am ready to take the upcoming challenges in order to achieve my goal.

Academically, this programme allowed me to gain professional knowledge in appreciating creative works done by different kinds of people. Yet, the most enjoyable part for me is having the opportunity to write stories, make short movies, songs, and animations. Working with groupmates on creating cultural spaces in class and doing presentations and performances are also incredible and memorable.

In Media and Cultural Studies, I have learnt concepts and cultural theories which have inspired me to think and question more about the cultural phenomenon and ideologies in our everyday life from a fresh perspective. I believe this programme would definitely enhance our critical thinking and make us see today’s modern society from a completely different angle!

After the torturing battle of DSE, it is easy for we students to feel lost in the sea of opportunities and career paths. HKU SPACE and AAMCCS have introduced me to the fascinating world of cultural studies with introductory courses. It also sparked my interest in this field of study which really gave me a clear goal. With that, I was able to shake off my sense of disorientation in exchange for a clear, dedicated mind to pursue my dream.

AAMCCS 帶來良好的學習氣氛、難忘的經驗，身邊有老師支持亦有同學們互相鼓勵。除了學科的老師樂意為學生解答課業上的問題，還不吝嗇的分享升學、選科的經驗，感受到學校和諧的氣氛。再者臨近考試，大家也自組“溫習團”、自發地在學校溫習。另外，學校也延長了開放時間，有助師生備戰。除此之外AAMCCS有別以往在DSE學制的知識，提供了更多樣化的思考角度予我們反思社會、乃至生活的議題，不再受限於填鴨式教育。

在AAMCCS最大的得着是找到自己的興趣。跟隨自己的熱誠，慢慢就會摸索到想走的路。

I have been equipped with skills to critically analyze media text, identity, gender, consumer culture and spatial politics. More importantly, I have learnt to acknowledge the fluidity of culture, the problems of everyday life and identification of the omnipresence of discrimination and inequality in society.

During these two years, I have deepened my interest in studying culture and received lots of support from the lecturers. Lecturers of AAMCCS would offer a wide variety of activities and fieldtrips for us, which help us to broaden horizon and engage into the cultural and creative industries in Hong Kong.

修讀這個課程令我得到另一個升讀大學的機會。在兩年的學習中，講師除了訓練我們批判思考，亦不時提出升學的意見。
