Community Camp

So yesterday 28/4/2012, TRUMS made a day trip to Kota Marudu. Basically, the camp was to help the villagers in need. The place is quite rural. They had to go miles and miles away to get to the town. I seriously dont know how can they survive in such place. so we were divided into few departments, like the F&B unit, Library unit, Gardening unit and etc. I was in the library unit with fel. Our unit didnt do much compare to the rest of the units. all we did was cleaning and decorating the house/school. and i feel glad for that cause the rest of the units had to stay outside during the 'gotong-royong' session, under the hot sun. while we the lucky ones, didnt have to.hahahaha. And as usual, Fel and i are the mischief makers.

After the Gotong-royong session, the donation stuff were distributed to each family. I have so much things at home that should have been brought there for the donation. But i am too old to remember things now. sigh. STUPID FORGETFUL MADONA! The kids were already there during that time. While waiting for the meal time, the kids were playing happily with their friends. some of them play the 'guli'. I couldnt help myself but to interrupt them. wahaha.. Sandry, the little boy who taught me to play guli is so nice. He even ask me to join with him like im the 'player 2' in that game. lol.

Around 2pm or so, we had our lunch. Knowing myself, i gave half of my rice to Sandry and of course vege. lol. While watching them eating, i saw one little boy were closing his eyes while holding his plate. At first, i thought he refused to eat. But after seeing him doing the cross sign, tears suddenly rolled down my cheeks. He was actually praying before eating. From that moment i realise that, i am so stupid and sinful in every way. How could i always been complaining about my life. Even kids that dont own any toys to play with except guli, would pray before eating.

Unfortunately, not all the kids are lil angel. There's this one particular boy who was about 4 years old really pissed everyone off. What happen was, at first he was very attached to kee2. During that time, i have already despised the fucking moron to the max cause earlier on, that fucking kid punched lightly on my 'you know what'. Some more, he made a body glove sign on maureen's track suit with a fucking paint! so during the meal time, he was reluctant to eat. Kee2 was trying so hard to persuade him but it didnt work. Everyone forced him like hell and he started to cry so loud. to my biggest astonishment, he suddenly hit kee2 so hard on her face that everyone started to panic. When i saw her, her face was already red and she looks as if she was about to faint. During that time, i was so worried and stuck. I was about to let out my rage when there's just something that stopped me. A voice within told me to stop, not to turn into monster. Otherwise i could have abuse the kid. I feel so sorry for the parents, really. They need to do something about it, before that fucking kid turn into a devil.

After that incident, my excitement was no longer there anymore. However, exclude that terrible incident, i do enjoy that trip so much. At least i have contributed someone to those who suffer from poverty. Although fixing the ceiling was an epic fail, the villagers still seems to be so happy about our presence. lol. The camp had taught me a valuable lesson. I was wrong about thinking myself that i was the most suffering person alive. But after the trip, it had opened my eyes that, there are much more people who suffer more than i do.
