On June 6th. 09...

We finally did community & service.

We went to an orphanage near our school. What we planed to do were to teach them to plant seeds, to let them learn the food pyramid, and to explain to them what is going on in our world (climate change).

When we got there, my first impression was "wow", because that place doesn't even look like an orphanage! When we first met the kids, there were really, really, active. I mean WAY too active!! We got to know them by chatting and sharing interests together... Then we continued with our activities.

Danny and Ciccio did most of the talking because i can't explain in Indonesian. They told them what's going on in our environment, which is climate change. Then the Food pyramid. We explained the reason of why we should have healthy living life, and what vegetables provide for our body.

Next... is the hardest part... planting!! The kids were trying to get hold of the pots, and when we told them to be quiet and line-up, they don't listen! That really drove me crazy, but i managed not to spank them in their butt! XD We told them the procedure, the tips of taking care of tomato plants. There was a problem when planting the seeds. One group put too much water for their plant, so, i had to help them get the water out, which wasted more time! =m=

But they are still young, so i had to be patient with them... huh~

After all the hard work, we went back inside and help them distribute snacks and drinks that we donated. They really liked the juice and snack... Later, we rested, took some group pictures and played a game called BINGO! I brought sticker with me to give to anyone that are nice and quiet (it really works) At around 11:45 am we left the orphanage and head back.

It was a tiring day...

I think the one good thing from this visit is getting along with the children, they are really enthusiastic and very friendly, and i have to admit that i quite enjoyed it.

&the beauty.

On May 16th. 2009, Veronica, Christabel and I went to a GINDO conference in JIS (Jakarta International School). GINDO stands for Global Issues Network in Indonesia. We went there to learn about what other schools are doing to help our environment and to reduce green house gases. We also discussed global issues like Global Warming.

We didn't just learn, learn, and learn. But there were entertainments such as dancing, singing, and instruments.

In my opinion, i really learned a lot at that conference. It was at the same time really fun.

Next year, there will be another GINDO conference in Bali, and i am planning to attend that again.

&the beauty.
