yep..had a field trip to M.I.N.D.S today..You all know how it goes. As usual, The day starts out...knowing that we are going to a home for the "intellectually disable people", we were like all,"omg, this is definitely be another boring day!!" we arrived there, and i waltz in past some utter disgracee of a man..acting like some big shot,waving to all the "special" people,giving them my most sarcastic-looking smile..upon seeing the people there,the enthusiasm is dieing, i can feel it in my loins, not to mention my mind. After an extended period of this, boredom sets in. I inevitably ended up making fun of everyone I see, probably because they're having more fun than me, but in my mind it's because they're knob-ends.


Then came our time to perform for them,or rather sing them some songs..we sing and we sang and we sung, and all the people there seems to enjoy themselves despite our awful singing..they kept repeating their arms-above-head gestures, singing and clapping along while we sing.


after our most interesting performance, they had 3 special perfomance for us..i thought that it might be just a group of "special" kids jumping around on stage not knowing what's going on, but to my surprise,they dance elegantly!! much better than I do!! the last play was this drumming performance,it's was soo impressive that it almost took my breath away!!(no exaggeration) but one bad point is that it was tooo tedious..short and simple makes it the perfect play...remb??haha..anyway. upon seeing them dancing and drumming away with much glee and enthusiasm..it kinda makes me feel bad as well as guilty..for looking down on them..How forlorn my heart were!! Looking down on handicapped people!!! I am a perfectly normal guy,much more fortunate than they are, yet i do not how to cherish the things around me like they do...only until today..then i came to realised that life is actually...sooo meaningful..Without the help of those kids,I wouldn't have been able to write this blog entry right here. Without them, I wouldn't have been strong enough to put myself back out there. And most importantly, i wouldn't have known the best feeling in the world- able to treat those who are weaker then me with respect and probably love..so lets pick ourselves up and move along with a new lifestyle..and always remb to cherish the things that we have....=)





nite outtt
