It has been sometime since I last volunteered outside university. And I am glad I went ahead with my heart that time to submit my request for helping out with the Esplanade Youths. I along with 5 other passionate youths went to a before and after school care in AMK to get kids to write their hopes and wishes on the spheres for Marina Countdown this year. I always find it a pleasure to work with kids.

Coming into contact with kids nowadays let me understand what the society expects of the future generation, and also showed me how technology and video gamings are very apart of children's life. Pri 1 and 2 guys have Facebook accounts and play Pet Society, I am amazed. Have no idea if such things are good or bad for the children but I guess this is just how our society has progressed with technological advancements at breakneck speed.

I also got a 1st-hand experience of having to handle mischievious boys, breaking up little fights and vulgarity scolding incidences. I must say once again I am amazed at the strength they have plus the vocabulary of vulgarities they actually know and use without even thinking for a second at each other. Wow, these can be kids which I will teach when I go into teaching next time. LOL. I will have to find a way about managing them in classrooms or I will just go crazy. Haha. BUT when they look at you with their innocent eyes, and smile with you so happily, I just melted. Cannot wait for Thursday when I will be going to another place!!! :p

Was in town so decided to drop my phone at Nokia Care Center for repair, if not it'll take me a week at Woodlands. *faint* So now, I am using a rather old school phone (no camera, just the basic essentials) with no contacts at all. I must admit it is super inconvenient with a phone but no contacts, who can I call now? Who can I sms with no numbers?? Sian. And somemore I will be running around having gatherings, outings, meetups, tuition... Lucky there is still the awesome thing called Internet. Oh well, my phone better be great after spending at least 3 days away from my rough usage. I am feeling the over-reliance of our lives on technological gadgets... What if one day they all just spoil? Will people go crazy? I wonder.
