Hong Kong's youngest ever university student started his math course on Sep. 4. He said he is already bored with the "very easy" class.
The nine-year-old math genius got two grade As and a B in his A-levels in England. The A-levels are normally taken by 18-year-olds.
March Boedihardjo told reporters at Hong Kong Baptist University he was excited about starting school, but the classes were not hard.

"I've learned it a year or two years ago," Boedihardjo said as reporters asked him questions and cameras flashed around him.
The boy appeared impatient with the large number of questions from reporters and kept asking his father when they could leave.
Boedihardjo did not think much of his classmates, either.
"They made no response (in classes). They just listened in the class and didn't interact with each other," he said.
The boy said that his old school friends "wanted to play," unlike the university students.(AFP)
香港有史以來最年輕的大學新鮮人在九月四日入學就讀數學系。他表示，課程對他來說有點「太淺顯」了。
這個九歲數學神童在英國高級會考中，拿到兩科A及一科B。高級會考的應試者通常是十八歲的青年。
沈詩鈞在香港浸會大學對記者說，他很興奮開學了，但是課程卻過於容易。
「這個我一兩年前就已經學過了。」沈詩鈞在記者採訪時回答，身邊鎂光燈則閃個不停。
面對記者的追訪，沈詩鈞顯得不耐煩，並一直問他父親他們何時可以離開。
沈詩鈞也不太欣賞他的新同學。
「他們(在課堂上)都沒什麼反應，他們只是坐著聽課，不會和其他人互動，」他說。
沈詩鈞說，他之前學校的同學都「好玩」，跟現在的同學不太一樣。

The US-Israeli war with Iran, which began on Feb. 28, has killed thousands of people, destabilized the Middle East and rocked global energy markets by effectively closing the strait. WHAT IS THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ? Lying between Oman and Iran and linking the Gulf north of it with the Gulf of Oman to the south and the Arabian Sea beyond, the strait is 33km wide at its narrowest point, with a shipping lane just 3km wide in either direction. Perhaps the world’s most important energy shipping channel, the waterway is about 167km long. Following through on an old threat, Tehran effectively closed the strait

Have you ever found yourself desperately feeding coins into a claw machine just because you’ve already spent so much trying to win that stuffed animal? Or maybe you’ve continued watching a boring movie simply because you already paid for the ticket? If so, you’ve experienced the “sunk cost fallacy.” A sunk cost refers to time, money or effort that has already been spent and cannot be recovered. This psychological trap is surprisingly common. You might keep playing a video game you no longer enjoy because you’ve invested countless hours in building your character, or maintain a toxic friendship because you’ve known
When you twist open a bottle of carbonated water, bubbles rush out with a hissing sound. This drink is simply water infused with carbon dioxide (CO2) under pressure, giving it that fizz on your tongue. But this basic description barely scratches the surface of the carbonated water family. Although all carbonated waters are bubbly, slight differences set them apart. Seltzer is just plain water with artificial CO2—no minerals, no extras. Club soda includes added minerals such as sodium bicarbonate, which creates a slightly salty flavor. This makes club soda suitable for mixing with fruit juices. Sparkling water, on the
