THE LOK FAMILY TRILOGY PART III - IAN THE YODI

Now comes the person whom I respect greatly & love so dearly
His name is IAN LOK and is easy to save his name in memory
As a kid he already took on all the responsibilityz
He looked after me while our parents were busy
Due to the fact that he is the first born of the family
He sometimes has to face harsh situation personally

At the age when he needed to enter the primary
My parents expected him to enter La Salle eagerly
He did and studied until he reached secondary
Tat’z 1989, when China didn’t care much about humanity &
My grandma suggested him to go Canada to continue his study
One day he came back looking all sporty
And tat was only midway towards his twenty

I think 2 years after his return to da home country
Our family packed our bags and get ready
For another expedition that ended up costly
Once again my bro settled in Canada for another 2 years consecutively
Thinking that we gonna stay there & enjoy the nice scenery
Unfortunately after some time, my dad decided that’z not where he wanted to be
So off again my brother has to come home with his entire family &
Tat’z almost the time he needed to enter University

He managed to gather his strength and maintain a positive & tough mentality
To overcome every obstacle with his amazing ability
During those years he concentrated on his study
And cared about nothing that would have made him worry
He finally entered Simon Fraser University
Where he graduated with his English Degree & along da way he met his destiny
Like the title of the song sang by Britney
“Hit Me Baby One More Time” He returned to his home country &
Go into HKU to continue with his study for a Master & a PHD
Emphasizing on World Englishes & the Postcolonial Being plus all sorts of literary theoryz

All Along he’s been searching and looking for his identity
Imagine a person being educated on and off in 2 different countryz &
Having to live, survive & explore on his own entirely
I bet he did feel lonely but I am sure he didn’t feel empty
I have to give him credit coz it really ain’t easy
It takes stamina and determination like ROCKY
In order to be a PIONEER
