Studium and Punctum

Studium: Worn down, cramped alleyway. Looks to be in an old part of town due to the state of the buildings.
Punctum: If you've never traveled very far, it can be to take some things for granted. Imagine living in an apartment with several people that is no bigger than your kitchen or living room. Running water is terrible and could get you sick if you hadn't grown up drinking it. Poverty is rampant and there is little to no chance of change in the near future. Even so, it's the little things that become appreciated. Being together with family. Being close to neighbors and friends. Community.
