...well, one thing interesting happened this week and it involved one thing i really like - charity work...it's something i don't get to do that often so whenever i get the chance i always make sure to make the most out of it...
...our company had a book drive campaign few weeks back and since all of my books were not kid appropriate (i'd be shocked if there's a kid out there who can tolerate few chapters of Wicked hehehe) i opted to just have some cash taken out from my salary and used it to purchase books for kids (i saw Alamat ng Lamok as one of the purchased titles bwhaahha! like WTF?!!! who would even bother knowing the mythical origin of mosquitos - oh well! hehehe)
...we went to i think the most remotely located school in existence like it was placed right smack in the middle of the jungle and i was wondering where those kids came from since i can't see much houses in the area...weird...just plain weird
...anyway, on top of delivering the books, we spent almost an hour reading some books to the kids from grade 1 to 5....it was something i haven't done before so the experience was really A+ :)
...if you take out the travel time and the effort you have to do to get there, i think i'd like to do it again :)
