Zhao Mei, a student in Grade Eight in Longtan Middle school in Haxi Tow. She is a happy, decent girl.

    In this time activity, I carry on interviews and take photos together with my associates. In the activity, we have some happiness, but more the interview brings to us is contemplation in the interview.

    We take photos of many moving stories. The children in the lens leave a school and enter society to become a part-time jobber. They load their home with thin bodies. Some children dream of going to school, but their family condition does not allow them. In the interview, I still met several teenagers at the same age of me. They stopped their study at the graduation of primary school. Now they have worked several years outside. Looking at bad habits on them from society, I don't know I should say to them.

    I feel that I am a lucky one. I am lucky to study at school, I am lucky to participate in this activity, I am lucky to understand the condition of the children at my age. In the meantime, hope and sorrow are still in my heart.
