    Where is the love?

    I was up bright and early, and headed off to CCK at 7 plus. I thought i was gonna be late, but i didnt. I slept so much on the train yet i couldnt get rid of my lethargy. Met up with the rest of the OSLE team and we went to Sunbeam's children home i think. Then we had some ice breakers' games, and off to sentosa where we visited the dolphin lagoon and underwater world.

    Actually, i dont wanna blog about the details. I just wanna say how i feel, which i didnt say during reflections and debrief time because i just didnt. I didnt want the oh-so-touching- kind of reaction from the team. Peiyu, Nic and i were in the same team, together with the kids, Elis, Elene and Glen. I like us, all of us. I love the kids. They are hell loads more understanding compared to my brother, and sometimes, i think my brother doesnt even appreciate the fact that he has got a computer, a roof, and a nice family.

    Sometimes, people just needs to be awoken. And i must admit, i was truly truly touched today. Glen, the 8 year old boy we had, is the best kid on earth. He's not rowdy like any others, and he is really sweet and caring.

    He fed me m&ms, and he told pei yu and i, " jiejie, can you all be my godsisters?"
    I was really really touched, i felt, this boy needs all the love we can give him. And even before we go to sentosa, he told all of us ," jiejie, i will miss you all when we go home.."

    I didnt say this during debrief. i didnt want those same reaction. I'll keep this in my heart forever. And i dont deny, i cried. I lowered my head in between my knees, and cried, as i thought of the entire day, him playing innocently with the sand, not giving the dolphins any attention despite us being in there for the dolphins' presentation.

    And him crying because peiyu and i didnt let him sit with peiyu herself, and me apologizing to him till he said, " i bluff you one lah jiejie, i forgive you." And i hugged him so tight, he did hug back, which was the really touching part.

    Peiyu, Nicholas, Esther and i promised to go back there together after promos. I want to, please go back. I can still see his innocent face in my mind.

    Those kids, a single candy, can make them so happy, and so thankful. So, why why why, are we not appreciating the every little things around us? I think everyone needs this sort of wake up calls now and then, and i know, i just had one.

    Thanks to everyone who've been there for me, and i thank my fate for giving me this chance to have such a happy family, and im also grateful, for being in OSLE, and taking part in this.

    I miss the kids already, ironic since i've got a brother at home that prefers to have the computer's company.

    Thanks to the kids, my buddy group, the osle friends. You guys make this day, one of the best days of my life. And thanks for the fruit punch, it was kinda yummy and kinda too sweet at the same time.

    Night.
