a week to remember forever


wanted to add in some pictures today
but couldn't find my camera cable
WHICH IS A BAD THING
i'll post them up another day.
i have loads of them!

it started out with an exciting bunch
we were awaiting to start out on our journey
our aim of this journey was to teach the kids but we all ended up learning so much more from them instead.
there's so much i want to say
there's so much of the experience i want to share
but its difficult to place them all in words
its too great an experience to place everything in words.

i'm going to miss so many things!

first of all the kids.
they are so ADORABLE
i'm gonna miss them.
we only saw them for 6 days to be exact and yet there's just this bond you don't want to lose
although there was a huge language barrier
but with MAI KAO ZAI, MAI BIEN LAI, MAI PUN LIAO, we survived.
in fact, it is so much more amazing how we bonded even with that barrier
at the finale night i didn't want to cry
i held back the tears with all my might till i saw my two young kids cry
i just didn't want to leave
right from the start i hated parting moments.
the letters they gave, the bands they helped us tie on our hands, the photos...

secondly the fun moments with the people who went
how can i not miss them
i went to the trip not knowing most of the girls
and now i know ALL of them.
i don't want the days to end
the lorry rides, the nana game, the crappy mr brown songs, star gazing (though i always fell asleep like damn fast) grease AND SO MUCH MORE!!

thirdly the food
maybe alittle bland, lack of ingredients
not like the feast we eat in singapore
but still delicious and filled with love of the children and the people there.

and anything and everything there.
from the dorms to the cold water in the toilets...

i just left and i can't wait to get back there.
