Admiralty/Central

Central has never been so colourful ever in history. Hundreds of tents have been set up here on hardcore road and the areas between admiralty station and the main government office. The tents have altered place of glass and concrete high rising commercial area to a spectacular protest region where Hong Kong citizens fight for democracy. 

This is the first time I arrive in the afternoon to support the students. After fighting for more than twenty days, the crowds, especially those persistence protesters, have grown bigger. With the night falling soon on this Saturday, I expect more and more people will come and join after dinner time. 

After checking the place around for half an hour, I found a spare place at the middle of the road to sit down. Lying my back on the light pole, I am feeling quite comfortable. Visitors, protesters, supporters or even tourists passingly through me non-stop. They take pictures, discuss politics or just just walk around to see this special political moment in Hong Kong. 

Coming down to the place and vitnessing the event by my own naked eyes, I have never been so sure that it takes actions to realise our dreams.
