 Hellooooo! I'm back frm Batam:D 5 days of my life well spent bringing joy to other ppl's life. Batam days have been fun and enjoyable. I've learnt a lot from this 5 days, probably lessons and values that will follow me for life. During this trip, we went to 5 orphanages- Viran, Gracia, Bethesda, Kalifatulah and St Theresa. We helped the kids to dress their wounds, taught them simple English and also celebrated their birthday with them:) I have to say that kids there are really very appreciative of what they have. Even if they do not have parents and do not lead a luxurious life, they still have a beaming smile to welcome people and things to their life. This is something that we people nowadays fail to do. We are too used to complaining about what we don't have, sulking over what we can't do, but think back at these kids, they're still smiling and hopeful about their tomorrow. Thank God that these kids have extraordinary courage. There's this girl at one of the orphanages with this super deep cut on toe. We asked her if it's painful she pondered and said no. Then we helped her to dress her wound and when the antiseptic contact with a wound she cringed a little, and when we asked her if it's painful, she smiled and said no. What amazing courage a 6 year old child can have. If it's me, I'll probably scream in pain? I really feel rather embarrassed like often I'm crying over the slightest things, sad over the minor issues and such and their so brave. This really makes me ponder about what are the real priorities of my life as of now. I really really hope I'll go back to the orphanages one day with my own capability, I'll do something more for them:) |

 OMGosh can't actually believe that I actually WENT for DB rowing today:P It was a NICEEEEEE experience seriously!! It's my first time touching a paddle..first time on the boat..hmm feels great though!:D Have to agree that the team is really a bunch of fun-loving people:D and they're really friendly and nice!:D Although the warm up was tough..hmm no idea why but..hahha!:D but after that serious rowing was a lot easier:P Thanks to the Orange-Shirt-Canto-Speaking Uncle (no idea what's him name XD haha!) for teaching me a lot!!:D and Thanks to Issac too!:D for the nice constant reminder: lock your elbow:P hmm!!:D Seriously feels so enriching trying something new..."So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning." -Morrie |

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty, admire it. Life is bliss, taste it. Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge, meet it. Life is a duty, complete it. Life is a game, play it. Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is sorrow, overcome it. Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is a tragedy, confront it. Life is an adventure, dare it. Life is luck, make it. Life is too precious, do not destroy it. Life is life, fight for it. Mother Teresa Ask yourself, have you live your life? |
