HK singer Sandy Lam shares rare photo of herself at 15

The 59-year-old posted on Aug 23 a picture of her student identity card for the school year 1980 to 1981, when she was studying at Maryknoll Sisters' School in Hong Kong.

"Back then, I was attending an all-girls secondary school," Lam wrote in Chinese. "After class, I would always walk down the hill from school with my two best friends who lived near me, as we chatted and laughed all the way. It took about 20 minutes — not too long."

She added they would stop by a busy neighbourhood to have some street snacks before heading home in a tram, with the journey taking 30 minutes.
