Saturday, A Day full of Activities!!!

The day started off with a big hope.. A hope to make a change in some kids' life... Yeah, M.A.D.U. it is.. Started off the journey from Casa Subang with Nisha, Tan, Renu, Nina, Yan Ni and a few others... A van picked us up (although it came 1/2 hour late) and brought us to Taylor's... There, we joined the other volunteers as well as the teachers, Miss Cheryl, Mr Yong and a few other lecturers.. Before I continue, let me brief what MADU is about...

M.A.D.U is a club/society which carries out community projects.. This year there are four projects.. 1) Sri Budriah- antibully project, 2) PJS7- reading program, 3)Seri Pantai- reading program and 4)Sentul- Math coaching program. All the programs started yesterday (10th April 2010).

I joined the Seri Pantai reading program... It was somewhere in Bangsar.. We reached there at around 10a.m.. Once we reached there, we were briefed on what to do and a few things about the kids and the community there... We then entered the community hall and there were a lot of kids from ages of 7 to 12... The kids were then divided into groups according to their ages... We were also divided into groups... My group consists of myself, Nisha, Renu, Yan Ni and Tan... We were assigned to the 9-year-old kids...

First, we had some ice breaking activities... We sang songs, had games, musical chair, dance, and some warming up sessions (running around)... The kids in our group were Qistina, Yong Ning, Muhammad Amami, Suhaila, Nisha and Priya.. They were a sporting bunch of kids and they enjoyed themselves... One could really feel their excitment and happiness which can be literally seen through their laughters... I felt happy seeing them laugh, dance, clap, run and jump around.. The project really made my day... I will be going there next saturday and i'm looking forward to it.. We came back around 1 p.m....

After that, I made some plans to hang out with Yen Wei as it was her birthday yesterday.. She asked us out to have dinner with her in Sunway Pyramid at 7.30 p.m... So, I, being the ice-skating crazy, decided to go ice-skating with Ashu, See Weng and Hunter.. We skated around 3 to 4 hours.. Not to mention, made some friends in the ice-skating rink... LOL...

At 7.30 p.m, the birthday girl called me saying that she is already in Sunway Pyramid and together with another friend, Pam... We then stopped skating and joined them for dinner... We went to none other than, Bubba Gump!!! Does it remind you of Foreest Gump? Run Forrest Run!!!!=P... Well well well the restaurant was well known for its shrimp.. As for me, I ordered Shrimper's Heaven ( you get a variety of shrimps and they tasted really good) and Sunburst drink in a glass with light underneath it.. Hunter ordered BBQ Chicken Salad and tasted really good too... We had a blast laughing and joking... Later on, went back at around 10 pm, bathe and slept right away (was too tired)...

Well it was indeed a great day for me... Well, i have to go now.. Have to complete my homework and assignments.. Lol.. Write more soon.. Adiowzzz!!!
