If I Am Given A Chance To Help Others Less Fortunate Then Me, I Will Do My Best.

Tiring Day, Nevertheless, It Was Fruitful And Had A Fun Timeee. Great Experience Tooo! FLAG DAY Was Simply Awesomeeeee! Thought And Expected Most Of Us Singaporeans To Be Selfish But I Was Wrong!

Most Young Peopleee Especially Teenagers Were Selfish, But Old People Were Rather Generous! Swept The Whole Of Ang Mo Kio And Managed To Clear Up 7 Pages Of Stickers. Could've Cleared Everything But Most People Din't Take Thoseee Stickers. Manage To Fill Up The Tin To 3/4 Full! Achievement Unlock! HEHE! (:

Young People, Only A Handful Donated, And Those That Did, I Believe They've Done Flag Day Before And Knowww How Difficult It Is To Stand Under The Hot Sun To Collect Donations! The Rest, Bo Chuppp! HAHAA! Expected. However, Old People Weree Rather Generous!

There Was This Old Lady, Who Was Hunched Back And When I Approached Her Politely And Told Her It Was For The Children's Home, She Donated $2. (: And I Expect She Earns Her Living By Collecting Newspapers For Recycling, From The Cart She Is Pushing Which Is Filled With A Small Stack Of Newspapers. I Mean Honestly, How Much Can She Earn In A Day? Throughout The Full 4 Hours, Less Than 20 People Donated $2 Or More Over Around 400+ People Who Donated. Yes. She Is GENEROUS.

And It Wasn't Only Her, Cause Probably 80% Of The People Who Donated Were Old Folks. Another 15% Were Middle-Age People Withh Kids, Wanting To Help Out And At The Same Time, Let Their Children Collect A Sticker. The 5% Were Young People.

There Was This Young Malay Girl Who Also Donated Generously When I Told Her It Was For Pertapis Children Home. She Inserted A $10 Note Into The Tin And Rushed Off. Totally Unexpected, Because That Was The Only $10 Note I Had Collected For The Day.

There Was This Old Danish Couple Whom Also Talk To Me About Pertapis Children's Home. Very Friendly. Told Me It Was Tough And Then Plop $4 Into The Tin And Told Me Have A Nice Day Then Walk Away! Niceee Peopleeeee! (:

There Were Alsooo A Few Old People Who Rode Bicycles, Stop Just To Take Out A Few Coins To Put Into The Tin, Unlike Most Of The People, Who Said They Either Din't Have Change Or Just Say No. There Was Also This Middle-Age Guy, Who Donated And When I Offered Him A Sticker, He Showed Me The One He Already Has. HAHAA! Must've Donated Already. Generous!

Lots Of Lesson Learnt. 
Shoulders Aching From Carrying The Tin For 4 Straight Hours. 
Tired From Standing Under The Hot Sun. 
This Are Nothing Compared To The Valuable Lessons I've Gained.

To All Those People Who Are Generous, Continue To Stay Generous. God Bless You! (:

如果我能去帮助别人
就算是那么的一件小事
小小的累积
总有一天也会变大
