Dear all,
I’ve consolidated a very simple Programme Outline here, so that we have an overview of the order of events, in particular with the order of performance items in the fringe festivals.
Please write to me to correct any mistakes spotted, as the preparations progress. I’ll also be creating a Programme Notes Page, where we can all upload the programme notes for our individual items etc. This is already in some ways served by the individual pages dedicated to each of the art forms, however, some directors and artists have already started giving me more detailed write-ups of their items and I felt it would be better to reflect that kind of detailed thinking somewhere on this site as well.
Please see: http://amkssnomad.wordpress.com/festival-programme/
As always, thank you everyone for the continuing hard work!
Best regards,
Tian Hui

首次到宏茂桥狮子乐龄之友协会，我的最初印象它只不过是一个慈善团体，一个提供乐龄人士消遣的场所。可是它逐渐地改变了我的想法。它不仅为乐龄人士提供物质上的需要，也给了他们在人生最后一段路程中所需要的东西，那就是关爱。
当他们聚在一起的时候，大家都会彼此嘘寒问暖。这不只填满了心灵中的空虚，也让生活有了色彩。生活对他们来说不会再是那么单调、乏味。有了新的生活目标和执著，乐龄人士会开心地走完生命中最后的里程碑。

2008年4月17日我们到 Ling Kwang Youth Centre 去采访中心的总干事 Mr Chang Chian Hui 。
听Mr Chang说，中心设立的目的是为了帮助那些四处闲荡的青少年，让他们放学后有地方可去，才不会交上坏朋友。
我觉得 Mr Chang的这分工作十分有意义，帮助青少年，引导他们走上正路。身为中心的总干事，Mr Chang 看着中心从八年前开始到现在，经过了许多风风雨雨。
所谓：‘助人为快乐之本’，所以 Mr Chang 没有埋怨，反而觉得自己收获很多。虽然开始非常艰难，资金也不是很多，他们还是熬到了现在。他们这种努力不懈与坚持到底的精神很值得我们学习。
从这次的访问中，我发觉自己的访问技巧进步了。我不再过于依赖写满问题的笔记，而是能随机应变。如果我依赖笔记，便无法听进采访者所说的话，也就无法及时想出新的问题。

We spent quite some time at Ling Kwang Youth Centre these past few weeks. Since the last time when we interviewed the volunteers, we made another two trips there. We interviewed two girls and one of the members of the staff on our second visit there. The girls were both students who regularly go to the Centre for tuition and to use the computers.
The interviews were all quite fun. Firstly, we interviewed Joel, a staff member. As he is the Head of Pastoral Care there, he recounted a few interesting occurrences that happened there in the past. We were also able to learn a lot about the profile of students who go to the Centre. It was an interesting experience and had a relaxing atmosphere. When the interview ended about a half hour later, we started our second interview.
