17/01

Went to school IIT Concourse at 12 pm. Then played one round of dota with Kenneth and Tjoa. After that me and Kenneth went opposite TP to have our lunch. Then we went back school to "do" our CMSK3 assignment.

Then we played one more round of dota with AI again, Ivan arrived after we finished our dota game. Then I was like no mood to do at all lol. I did just one line of APA referencing my research. Actually before term break I already did till like 1/2 of my research, just that I didn't do it in APA format.

After that feel more sian when my link are broken, most likely our school factiva database the link is some time authentication ba, that's why the link are broken and then I need to re find the link for my research reference.

After that I at there do like nothing but just surfing website and crap with them. Kenneth's "sperm", Jamie then joined us. He sibei irritating one sia, luckily not from our class LOL. He's one of the outcast in his secondary school, and now in our course also outcast. He abit damn sad sia, well they call him "sperm" because he very sticked to Kenneth LOL! Then we at there keep calling him "sperm" he don't know. We then had Canadian Pizza Hut delivery to our school and was playing dota again but this time with additional burden, sperm in our team against AI again. Our delivery arrived like 10 minutes after our game, around 8.30 pm then arrive. Then we at there had our Pizza and then crap at there again and surfing internets, then packed up and left school around 9.30 pm. Went home after that.

I submitted a crap reflection that I done within like 15 minutes to my careperson because I was so tired -.-. Hopefully I can pass my APEL2 if not GG retain 1 more semester LOL. When I was writing this reflection, I was actually laughing my way off because I don't know what to write and I crapped alot! Yeah as you can see, my craps purposes was meant to "meet the requirement of 500 words".

"Service Reflection (500 words minimum)

1. Identify a disadvantaged group, and briefly describe the current situation or share why this group is significant to you.

The children in Cambodia looks so poor and sad. Cambodia people suffers everday and not enough of daily needs everyday. Most of the children have no money to afford to get an education. Some don’t even have clothes to wear and I could see their bone, they eat very less a day :(

I love children, they are so cute. I can’t bear to see them suffer so badly while I am living so good in Singapore. I feel so unfair for them, I think god is very unfair. The world is too unfair! The richs are taking advantages of the poor, so I want to help them!

It’s significant for me because I feel so fortunate to live in Singapore, I have all the daily needs and human needs. My family has enough money to send me to school for education :)

2. What problems do they face, and what do you think they really need ? Give example (s).

They suffer from hunger everyday because they have no money. They need foods and their children needs to be educated to earn money for their daily needs. I could see pictures of young children needed to beg for money at the street.

3. What are your goals/objectives, and in what ways can you volunteer your service to help this group ?

My goal is to help the poor as much as I can. Make them feel contented like I am feeling with my life. I want them to feel like I am their Guardian Angels send down from heaven to help them.

4. Think of a tentative strategy and if applicable, state the (i) pros and cons, (ii) costs. (Costs may include supplies, materials, transport, rental, utilities, manpower, etc)

I pay $425 to go there to do community service work. It should be free since I am helping the poor society to do voluntary work. Now my pocket is burned with a big hole! However $425 is already a subsides price, and paying $425 can gain me experience of life in Cambodia is abit worth it.

Maybe we should get some clothes for the poor children to wear. You know New Year is already here and I doubt that the poor children there have any new clothes to wear since some of them don’t even wear clothes because they are too poor to afford one.

5. Based on your recommendation in (4), draw up a tentative action plan.

We can buy in cheap clothes from Karang Guni. We can also inform the whole TP to have donation drive, we will be asking our students to donate their old clothes and money if possible. We will carry this donation drive for a few weeks, or as long as we can till the day of Cambodia drive.

6. How is volunteering related to your life mission statement ?

As I said I am charitable, this will relates me to it by helping the poor. Not only that, I want to be a person who is loving, caring and compassionate. By doing volunteering work, I am actually loving the society to help out, caring for the poor society and gives compassionate to the young poor people in Cambodia.

7. How does volunteering effectively reinforce at least one of the APEL key principles or values ?

Giving yourself at expenses to others. Help out the suffer people. Love others more than loving yourself. To give is to gain. I have a helping hand. I can change the world to what I want it to be." (pp. 1 & 2).

Hah, going to school later at 12 pm again, to finish my CMSK3 assignment. This time must really chiong liao, if not tomorrow @_@ on monday. Hopefully Kenneth will help me do my assignment as he said he would because he's finishing his LOL.
