Reflections :)

Hello people,
Reflection Time
The things that happened in Cambodia that I feel that it is memorable...
Firstly, the thing that i feel very memorable to me is the visit to the Farm Orphanage. When we reached there, the children welcomed us with flowers. The children were very friendly and interactive. They were very eager to show us around the place. Next, we were entertained by the performances that they had put up for us. Some of them used instruments that i have never seen before. After that they taught us how to weave baskets using rattan. I had a hard time doing it but it was very fun :)... Before we left,we distributed the clothes that we had brought over from Singapore. Despite the fact that they are poor, they were very cheerful and happy. They were very appreciative of what we gave them and cherished whatever they have. I hope that i can go back there again. :D

Secondly, the thing that i feel very memorable to me is the CIP at Krobei Primary School. When we reached the primary school, each group was given a class to teach. Frankly speaking, it was hard to teach the kids as there was a language barrier. In the end, we taught the class from alphabet A to H and from numbers 1 to 20. After the 1hour lesson , we started to paint the classroom, pick up litters around the school and the building of the toilet. My group was assigned to paint the exterior of the classroom block. At first, it seems fun but as time past, we grew tired. The CIP next day was cancelled due to many people falling sick...I hope that we can go back and finish the mural painting. Overall, it was very tiring but fun. We also had the experience of being a teacher for a day... :]

Thirdly, the thing that i feel memorable is the visit to Angkor Wat.Before we went in to Angkor Wat, we had to have our pictures taken. The thing that i enjoyed most was the elephant ride. It was scary at first but i got used to it eventually...It was real fun :P This is also the first time that I am visiting Angkor Wat. I took a lot of pictures of the temples. After that we had a boat ride...It was very enjoyable and we had a chance to experience sunset without anything blocking our view. It is a very beautiful sight that i will remember...

Fourthly, the thing that i feel memorable is the shopping nights we had. Out of the 4 nights there, we were shopping for 3 nights :) All of us had lots of when bargaining and buying things but what the shops sell are similar to what other shops are selling...

Overall this trip is very fun and meaningful. I hope that i can go again next year :) Although we had activities cancelled for one day, i am sure that everyone had a fun time there :D Through this trip, I have learned that we Singapore kids are much more fortunate then them and we should treasure and cherish what we have now...
I MISS CAMBODIA....

Going off....
Bye...
