Title : [ Flag day..aw..so tired ]
Hi everyone.Hm...today took the E math test... I hope i can do well after the last test which looked so "red".. The highlight of the day was the part when we did our flag day. Cant really got the chance to sit on the lorry..aw..Then in the end..we all went to take bus 232 to Central. =) I took the can and the 2 packets of yellow ribbons and set out to somewhere far away from the central as i think most of us would crowd the central itself. Initially, my approach towards other people for donation was not a good start at all...the first few rejected me and walked off...aw.. Now i got the taste of being rejected in public! Out of 10 person i come across, 6-7 would simply-garantee reject me... But, at last, i got the hang of getting more people to donate by continuing to approach people. How should i say...some of them were very kind and donated $2 notes.*grin*..simply make my day out there a more evenful one ..heehe. Some thing that left me pondering about was what one of the male donators told me. I still could remember what he said clearly... As i approach him to donate, he at first felt very reluctant and before i knew, he start to chat with me...dont ask me why..cause at that time i blur blur one. He told me about his friend who is just came out of prison not long..and he eventually find his job being a security guard. But recently..he of retrenched as he within 5 years could not be a security guard( a rule passed down ba..). Therefore he ask me if this kind of donations would help? I stood transfixed to where i'm standing as i do not want to be rude and walked away...I just hope someone would come to my rescue. Finally, he said that I being a student should think throughly as this kind community service is just another propaganda.............. Hearing this, i really dont know what to do. My face totally went blank...BLANK! =(I managed to get three packets and more of the yellow ribbons given out. Very good experience i should say...being rejected and accepted...standing under the hot blazing sun and walked about the whole toa payoh centre 4 times...aw..drained. I said a lot of thank you ...until to the extend that i wish i would not say thank you anymore..haha..jk lah. Maybe i dont feel like talking so much anymore....conserve energy...heehe.
