1. 您如何定義成功?你會如何達到你所定義的成功?
對我來說,成功的定義是你對他人產生的影響力以及你為他人做了多少善事。那麼,我如何實現成功呢?我媽媽總是說,無論是考試還是生活中的任何挑戰,如果想取得100%的成果,就必須像在追求120%那樣去學習和工作——永遠全力以赴。即使最終未能達到預期,至少你可以問心無愧,因為你已經盡了最大努力,這樣就不會留下遺憾。無論成功與否,每一次經歷都應該成為學習和成長的機會。
2. 您如何在日常生活中保持動力和靈感?
激勵我的是,每一天都是一個全新的冒險,沒有什麼會一成不變。正是這種變化讓我對未知充滿了興奮,我喜歡探索未知的領域,並且不斷推動自己走出舒適區。每天我都在學習新的事物,不論是關於自己,還是這個世界的點點滴滴。這種持續的成長和探索,讓生活變得充滿活力和意義。
3. 如果你有機會成立一個慈善組織,你會關注什麼議題?
眾所周知,人口老化的問題日益嚴重,老年人可能會感到孤獨,似乎缺乏支持,尤其是隨著家庭規模的縮小。在新冠肺炎疫情期間,我很幸運能夠與一個為學生和老年人配對的組織合作,這個組織專注於長期照護。我們組織了社交活動,並安排志工進行一對一的交流。我認為,將當今的年輕人與擁有豐富經驗和智慧的前輩聯繫起來是非常重要的。這樣不僅能讓年輕人學習到耐心和包容,也能促進跨代際的理解和連結,這在當今社會似乎越來越稀缺。
4. 您特別珍惜哪些華人文化傳統?為什麼?
中秋節是我最喜歡的節日之一。從我有記憶以來,每年我都會挑選燈籠,然後全家一起帶著燈籠去賞月。我的最愛是桃子或魚形狀的燈籠,這些燈籠不僅美麗,還承載著我對這個傳統節日的美好回憶。每當燈籠在月光下閃爍時,我都感到無比的快樂和溫馨。
5. 您有什麼家庭傳統想傳承給下一代嗎?
每年我都沒有收到實體的生日禮物。相反,我們全家會選擇一起去旅行。因為我的父母一直在醫院工作,而我也很忙碌,所以我們意識到,能夠一起度過的時間才是最珍貴的禮物。在這些旅行中,我們一起體驗了新的事物,環遊世界,留下了許多美好的回憶。比如,我在香港慶祝了我的十歲生日,這是我最喜愛的城市,而我也很快會回到香港慶祝我的22歲生日。
1. How do you define success? How would you achieve the success you have defined?
To me, success is defined by your impact and the amount of good that you do for others. How would I achieve success? My mother always said, in order to get 100% on a test or in anything in life, you have to study or work as if you want to get 120% - always put in all of your effort. Even if you don’t succeed, you will know that you gave your very best effort and will have no regrets. But whether you succeed or not, you should learn from everything.
2. If you had the opportunity to establish a charitable organization, what issue would you focus on?
What motivates me is the sense that every day will be a new adventure, and that nothing will be completely the same. Because of this, I love exploring the unknown and pushing myself outside my comfort zone, to learn something new about myself or the world every day.
3. If you had the opportunity to establish a charitable organization, what issue would you focus on?
As we all know, the population is aging, and elderly people may encounter loneliness and feel like they have no support, particularly since families are getting smaller and smaller. During COVID, I was fortunate to work with an organization that paired up students with elderly people in long term care. We organized social events and one-on-one chats with volunteers. I think it is so important to connect today’s youth with our seniors, who have so much experience and wisdom to offer. The youth who participate would learn patience and acceptance, which seems to be in such short supply these days.
4. What Chinese cultural traditions do you particularly cherish? Why?
The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of my favourite holidays. Every year since I can remember, I would get to choose a lantern, and our whole family would go and watch the moon with the lantern. My favourite lanterns are always the peach or the fish.
5. Any family traditions that you would like to pass on to your next generation?
Every year, I don’t get a physical birthday present. Instead, our whole family goes on a trip together. Because my parents, who are always working at the hospital, and I am so busy, we have realized that time together is the most precious gift of all. On these trips, we experience new things, travel the world, and make memories together. We celebrated my 10th birthday in Hong Kong, a city that I love, and I will be returning to Hong Kong soon to celebrate my 22nd birthday.

6. 10歲的你對於參加多倫多華裔小姐盛會會有何感想?
十歲的我會非常興奮,及感無比自豪。我很喜歡看電視節目,還會請媽媽幫我翻譯節目台詞。我常常哼著節目的開場曲,但從來沒想到有一天我會成為其中的一員。
7. 您最期待日常生活的哪一部分?
我期待每天與我愛的人聯繫,關心他們的生活。支持及傾聽你周圍的人。
8. 哪些活動(例如聽音樂或閱讀)能幫助您感到平靜和放鬆?
我喜歡重讀最愛的書本,這讓我感到平靜,因為雖然知道故事的發展,但還是想回到其中。我6歲時侯,我至少重讀過我的希臘神話書20次。
9. 您認為自己是外向還是內向的人?請舉例說明。
我認為自己是一個雙向性格的人——可以根據情況和周圍的人表現出外向或內向的性格。當我在Montreal實習時,因為身處一個全新的城市,我變得非常外向,全心投入工作,並結識新朋友。在其他情況下,我則會內向一些,這樣可以讓自己更有反思的時間,也讓我的內向朋友們有機會展現自己。
10. 如果你是一件藝術品,你認為你會以甚麼形式或風格呈現?
我會是一件陶藝作品——小時候,你會被周圍的人塑造和引導,慢慢成長。一開始可能沒有明確的形狀,通過周圍環境的影響,發掘自己的潛力,最終形成自我獨特的形狀和個性。
6. What would your 10-year-old self think about you participating in the Miss Chinese Toronto pageant?
Ten-year-old me would be very excited and extremely proud of myself. I always loved watching the show on TV, and would ask my mom to translate what everyone was saying. I would hum the opening tune of the show all the time, but I never thought that someday I would be part of this myself.
7. What part of your daily life do you look forward to the most?
I really look forward to connecting with my loved ones every day, and checking in on their lives. It’s so important to support those around you and lend a listening ear.
8. What activities, such as listening to music or reading, help you feel calm and relaxed?
I enjoy rereading my favorite books, which is very calming because you know what will happen but you want to revisit the story. When I was 6, I reread my Greek mythology books at least 20 times each.
9. Do you consider yourself an extrovert or an introvert? Please provide an example.
I consider myself an ambivert - I am capable of being an extrovert or an introvert depending on the situation and the people that surround me. When I was in Montreal working in an internship, I was extremely extroverted because I was in a new city, wanted to fully engage myself in my work environment and wanted to make new friends in a city that I had moved to completely by myself. In other situations, I am more of an introvert, so that I will be more reflective, but also to let some of my more introverted friends shine.
10. If you were a piece of art, what form or style do you think you would take? Why?
I would be a piece of pottery - as a child, you are molded by the people who surround you and guide your personal growth. You start out somewhat shapeless but full of potential, and through your own efforts and what is around you, wind up becoming completely unique in your shape and personality.
