"Who knows.. you might just fall in love with that place" 
*Roll eyes*

And those was the exact words Mum said and what I did before I came to China...

Went to help out at a special school for children yesterday and it was probably one of the most meaningful thing I have even done in my life.


It was really like love beyond nations? We had friends from Korea, America and Denmark helping out. And people from Iraq, Africa donating? Awww.. our international cultural college is soooooo awesome!

The teachers and children there was super hospitable? The kids!! Some were deaf, some mute or both, but they're crazily adorable.

And so it was a crazy day for Ding da jie jie who draws terribly!! Haha. But no choice! I had to draw something right? The theme was "SKY" and look at what the heck I'm drawing? What has a house got to do with sky huh? I'm sucha bad example.. Haha.

  






This boy above.. he's one of the funniest boy I've ever met in my life! He spits in class like every 5 minutes?!? Like literally spitting okay? My friends and I was sooooo disgusted initially, not by him but in class??!! What?! In China, everyone spits, anytime anywhere so we're kinda used to seeing spits. But haha, this little boy cracks me up everytime he does that. But he's like the sweetest thing? Look at that drawing he's holding. It's Ming Xiu, him and me. Awwww.......  



I think I really like my stay here. I know it's very cliche when people say like they're sick of the city life and all. But I kind of am? I don't like the city city kind of China but I love the rural areas of China! People are soooo pure and clean. They live everyday happily and life's so laid back. I felt so sad when it was time to leave... I really wish I could stay there forever at that moment.


I returned as a more matured me? And now I think, how would the kids live their lives if they were me? I'm sure if they had the chance, they would live it to the very fullest. And that's what I'm gonna do :D

Life doesn't get any better than this.
