Hello *,Singapore! Goodbye*,Vietnam!

Tired, Angry, Shocked, Extremely Happy & Disappointed.
That's exactly what I'm feeling right now.

Tired - After 8 days of service learning trip, I'm finally back to Singapore. Like how it goes when it comes to repacked your luggage. Is like when you're already so tired and yet, you have to finish all those stuff before you can really go to bed. ):
Angry - Mr Richard didn't wish to give me the cheque. You can't imagine how angry I was when I heard this news. I'll hope he pass to me by Thursday. >: (
Shocked - Grandmother had a fell & it bleeds. I felt so helpless at one point of time. Luckily mum came home at the right time. :'(
Extremely Happy - Vietnam trip was GREAT GREAT GREAT! I learn many things that was not taught here. Unforgettable memories and wonderful experience I had.
Disappointed - Your sarcastic remarks hurts me ):

Let me start off my Vietnam trip with my point of view.
The objective is to help the orphans there to get to understand the basic English & to actually let them feel the love and care we gave. Telling that there is still someone in this world whom really concerns them. And not forgetting to donate books, Clean up the place, interaction and helping up in the cooking. So far we have visited 3 orphanage. Hy vong, Dieu Gaic & Phu my.
Phu my was one that I felt most heartening. Children there are unlike others orphanage. They can't move, can't play around. Neither can they talk. It hurts each and every single soul who went there. Eventually almost everyone broke down.
I was taken a back on this one child. I don't wish to describe how it looks, but I hope he can live healthily. There is so many fortunate people in this world who does not appreciate their life. Unlike those children in the home who wish to live lively like other but does not have a chance. I changed my point of view in things that I've done. Like what some says: " when you enter the home and look at those kinds, those important things that you have long wanted will no longer stick in your mind because you feel that the children in the home are more important than any other thing in this world."
Though I felt so so so helpless and useless. I'll definitely so something I can to help them even if I'm back to my own country.
Brought souvenirs for fellow girlfriend and some local product for family. ;D
Nhat, the great translator was a nice guy. For the past 7 days that he had been with us was seriously meaningful. Without his translate, I guess nobody will understand those things we've attended. Though there are a few more extra translator. I still felt that He is the best la! :D
Mr chow and the 3 instructor, Kevin,Joshua and Steven was also very nice guys.

My Baddehhhhhhh!!!!! Chickennehneh Ng!
It's really been a great 8 days with you! Your laughter, your sound and you action cheer me up each and every minutes there. Thanks for being such a "obedient" Buddy huh! :D You rawkz to the core man! The time we spend together during shopping time. We bargain like hell la! "Ma Kuai, Ma Kuai!!!!" & there's lots more we experience that is too long to describe.
Takecare, ♥
