ON monday went to the Jamiyah home with o5s09 for the service learning project. We took away the time slot from another grp (from our sch) that earlier on cancelled their 'booking'. Some kids were pretty scary and my first impression of the home wasn't too gd, probably due to the exterior and how closely it resembled life in a hospital than a home. Now I treasure my bedroom a lot more. (: Anyway the kids were pretty hostile at the beginning which I guess has to be due to the many many groups of students visiting day in day out. I mean who wld feel gd to have students coming to your house as and when and you have no control over it at all? Instead you have to follow what others tell you to do and be commanded around. Some of them are sec sch students and undeniably, I felt sorry for them although I was a tad too pissed with how they conduct themselves. On 2nd thoughts, they're orphans and have no parents to discipline and groom them like we do. So I made no noise abt it. When you see them get wow-ed by magic tricks from Daryl and how elyn played (read BANG) the piano.. you'll silently weep deeply in your heart. I mean it. I'm just glad they were able to withstand us till the end. It was quite a fresh experience.
