I’m already in davao! yeay! it’s almost a week since i’ve arrived. Well, i’ve only been out once in almost 6 days. Amazing. Usually, when i’m here, i usually go out the night that i arrive. Now, well… I only went out once.
I went out because i had to… Not because i really wanted to. Well, our organization (UPLB Tubaw) had our summer activity. We went to the Bantay Bata shelter and gave them a small party. It was really a lot of fun. The kids at bantay bata were very friendly and accomodating. They made us feel at home and very welcome. The program started with me giving an informal opening remark, well, i just said some things about the organization and why we were there. Then we proceeded with the games. Which was a whole lot of fun and quite a riot. Hahaha.. We played the classic games like bring-me, paint-me-a-picture, charades, and two other games i really can’t remember. Or we played only 3 games? I think we played 5 games.. I know we played 5 games. Well, whatever. After the games, the kids at the shelter had a presentation for us (really sweet right?) then after that, we had our merienda! hehe.. Chicken, spaghetti, hotdogs, cake, and coke zero! yes, no sugar for the kids. hahaha… After the meal, we went out and gave our donation of books and toys. Then, it was already time to go home. I was the only one who brought a car and there were nine of us. Yes, imagine 9 people in a honda city. Even though we were so cramped up inside the car, we could not hide the happiness that we were feeling. The feeling of knowing that we’ve given that much joy to the kids with just a bit effort and time. Even if we just gave them temporary/momentary happiness, at least we gave them something to smile about.
