三姊姊經常說我活在自己的世界。 哈，我認， 我把握人生中所有可以放空(space out)的機會去放空， 亦努力地做一個豁出去不理會別人看法的人。 但老老實實的，活在自己的世界其實有什麼不好呢？ 如果人人都跟在別人的步伐，跟著大家的想法， 大家的想像力和創造力會跑到那裡去呢? 那裡有那麼多傑出的小說，童話？那裡有Harry Potter?那裡有"小王子"? 如果畢加索有聽別人的話，為五斗米折腰而正正經經寫實的畫，還會有他那些驚世名畫? 如果巴哈，莫扎特不是日彈夜彈，日思夜想他們的創作，會有流傳千古的交響樂？ 好吧好吧，就當我是為我的任性作個漂亮的借口，反正香港文化水平低落，難保一日我會成會作家，就給我快快樂妹地活在自己的世界。 我是一個怪咖，我認，而且很開心。

Ethics can never be compromised. Lifelong healthy living style is the best prevention of many chronic diseases, and can only be accomplished if the general public realizes the importance of good nutrition since young. Effective communication bonds a team together. Better to ask than to make mistakes. Practice makes perfect

Evelyn Tsui has asthma since she was three. To prevent it being triggered, she tried some food that claims to mythically ease or cure asthma and avoided doing any exercise. However, when she reached 11 years old, her asthma outbreaks became more frequent than ever. She was sent to Emergency room twice within several months and she was hospitalized for four days. She learned that she has to avoid certain food that irritates her bronchus; she should also exercise regularly to strengthen her respiratory system. She overcame her hydrophobia and started to develop a routine of swimming once a week. Since then, her asthma is under control. She realized that a careful choice of diet and regular exercise is the key rule to prevent many chronic diseases, which we have always neglected in this fast food culture. As our health is the most important element in life and she became determined to become a dietitian. In 2005, to purse the best out of her education, she learnt to be on her own for the first time and came to United States to study. She studied at a community College, De Anza College in San Jose, California for two years. She is now a Senior majoring in Clinical Nutrition at University of California, Davis, expected to be graduated by June 09. She will become a Registered Dietitian afterwards and wants to work in the field of public health to promote nutrition education or disease prevention.

Activities Volunteer at the Soil Born Farms I encourage and guide the middle school students or high school students to be more aware of fruits and vegetables. I lead them to have a trip around the farm and assist them in cooking activities and gardening activates. Examples are making garden salads from fresh vegetables in farm and making vegetable fried rice out of the fresh vegetables. I demonstrate my leadership skills and ability to approach children from different ethnicity background as a friendly guidance rather than a service provider. I will continue to be a volunteer of Soil Born Farms until I graduated. Research Intern at the Laboratory under Professor Bo Lonnerdal, University of California, Davis I work under a Ph.D student, Rulan Jiang, to help in her project on researching protein lactoferrin’s role in boosting intestinal growth in infants. I isolate the protein from human breast milk and crypt cells in small intestines from 10 days rates, and use a self-made DNA gel to analysis the results. I also expose the membranes in dark room to further verify the experimental results. I also helped in breeding of the experimental rats, separating the males and females when needed to.
