Life of people at Cheung Sha Wan

Our activity for today's SLAM gathering is to bring our mentees out to the neighborhood and capture some interesting photos of people's life in Cheung Sha Wan. This is my first time doing this and I do think it's pretty fun. At least, I had some fun taking photos, although they don't really look good.
And it's also to prepare for our SLAM Social Project, the Photo Competition and Exhibition, so do stay tuned! ^^

Hong Kong style stalls by the roadside. Mostly owned by the elderly.

Trying to make a living on a Saturday.....

Well, something I consider...not so good. You know what are these guys doing?
Yeah you got it right, Hong Kong Jockey Club is just right beside and these people are looking at the results, sitting everywhere by the streets and smoking. 

Well, some after-event sharing. I am actually touched by one thing that our mentees mentioned during the ice-breaking game --pictionary. When we asked them for some reflections after playing the game, some of them actually said "Now we can really understand how hard is it for people who can't speak to express themselves, and that we must appreciate that we have this ability to speak." And I was like...WOW. How many of us, could actually come to this thought by just playing pictionary....
And after the photo taking session, we also shared about the photos, where we see witness the love shared among the elder population in the area, and we witness the huge population of the elderly in this area where some of them are homeless. And that leads to a lot of further thoughts...will, the society, or the government somehow help these people...? How's life goinna be like during one's 70s 80s or even 90s in this district?

It is, a fruitful day for me :)
