Service Learning last thursday at Chen Su Lan Methodist. its a childrens' home.and it was very far!at ang mo kio. lucky they changed the meeting time to 9am n nt 8am. hah. if nt i think i'll be late.=xbasically, we were there to play games with them n after tt help the home with the x'mas decorations. =))sth like a one day camp.so.we played treasure hunt which to me was like amazing race.haha! it was quite enjoyable to see the kids have fun.i love kids!but. the different thing abt them is that they are very violent.they fight like every min. whacking one another.punching.to add to that, they are very vulgar too. almost all sorts of vulgar words that u can think of came out of their mouth.but cant really blame them. they are kinda 'ke lian'. there was this guy who i talked to was actually autistic. but i din noe abt it at first. so i just treated him normally. n tried involving him into our grp. n i swear during tt period he didnt give me the feeling tt he was autistic at all!so yah. i gt to noe it thru bobo! n i just went,'really?!'. haha.managed to talk to him for a while. n he said tt he havent been home for quite a while.n he misses his cousins.his father dosent want to bring him home.he hates the kids there.he dosent like siblings.he has stayed there for 5 yrs n he's damn sian.so he said tt he was happy tt we came.=) well.i think he's a smart guy.he reads the newspaper everyday. but only TODAY. n i guess he's quite matured already. so tts y he finds the other kids irritating. lots of thoughts came to me while talking to him.i felt really fortunate n blessed to have my family.i guess would rather have them nagging at me then to nt bother abt me at all. it must be a really horrible feeling.sighs.to me, i find most of the kids there smart. as in.i believe they will grow up to be really street-smart.some of them are talented too. in diff aspects. but. they are really CUTE! some good-looking! haha! so yup. i guess attention is just what they need.but.i dunno y.when i was there, i had a sudden urge to come back some day and be a volunteer.haha.but i gt a feeling.even if i do go back.i wun be able to last long. lols.
