And I'm too embarrassed to post it.
Aw what the hell
I've been in the same society with her (Catholic Society--KATSO), know a few things about her, but was too shy / didn't have a chance to talk with her much. We are in different departments, go to different parts of the campus and rarely meet.
I've known her since I was a freshman.
She's probably 'single' (I knew of her breakup, early this year I think, with her last boyfriend, whom I also knew).
I suppose I should really be calling her, but I think I would just screw up completely. Email instead.
As you can see below, I'm really desperate.

Email title: Merry Christmas Vivian!
Dear Vivian,
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Are you celebrating just with family and friends or have you found a boyfriend by now?
If you're still by yourself, may I be so bold as to suggest you to treat yourself to a New Year present and go out with me? o^.^o
You would be treating me to a great New Year present too o^.^o

2 choices for the next paragraph...
Original: I know this is sudden for you, but for me this is not sudden at all--I knew what love at first sight was when I met you at the KATSO I-day counter in my freshman year. Unfortunately, our lives were too far apart for us to know each other much, although I sure did try!
Revised: I know this is sudden for you, but for me this is not sudden at all--I'd been wanting to ask for this and more ever since I met you at the KATSO I-day counter in my freshman year, but thought that I would have my chance later when I have gotten to know you better. Unfortunately, our lives grew further apart instead of closer together until now, when I realize that if I don't ask for a meet now, I'll never see you again. ...
----
In truth I don't think this would go anywhere, what with us both busy with our last year of study, and probably heading different ways to God-knows-where after graduation--but even so, I would be a much happier man for having gone out with you just once!
Not having seen you for such a long time, I thought I could put you from my mind. Not so. Did you wonder why I followed your group so far when the KATSO graduates were taking photos? I just wanted to take a picture with you, just once, before I left HKU. Not having brought a camera, and not being brave enough to ask someone whose job of the day was to take photos of all the graduates, out of the blue, to *have* a photo, I left after an hour of mindless trailing, and was near tears for the rest of the day.
Pity an old man and fulfil his dying wish... or something. o*.*o""
Yours very sincerely,
Joseph Yeung
