Was pretty busy last week. But it was an eventful week as well.

09122007 marks the day of Beach Hunt 07. It was an event organised for the visually handicapped beneficiaries. The event was supposed to be held at pasir ris park but due to the lack of shelter over there, we have changed the venue to Sembawang Park.

Despite the bad weather, the beach hunt committee had done and had made the event quite a successful one. All games were held indoor but nevertheless, all volunteers and beneficiaries had more or less enjoyed the games and the sandwich making competition.

This was the first time im the co-leader of an event. For the past few years, they had organised foodhunt for the beneficiaries but our committee decided to be different tis year and organised a beach hunt instead. Thus, we had to start from stratch and we met many set backs during our planning. We cant find sponsorship, unable to book the function hall at pasir ris, change our games rules now and then to make sure they are suitable for the beneficiaries. During the day itself, it rained early in the morning and all of us started to panic. Luckily, we had this tent and we had to shift all our games stations to be under that tent. It wasnt easy to lead a committee as ive not much experience in doing that.

Seeing those beneficiaries' smile when they received their prizes make all the sweat and tiredness worth while. Alot of people ask me why i wana join this cca since its nt lk veri fun n ive still haf to go back and gif them tuition on saturday and has nth to gain at all. At first, i was puzzled too. Now, im sure of my choice.

They themselves also hope that they dont need our help but they really need it. If all of us are all self-centered creatures, who can they turn to? All of us also hope that people ard us will lend us a helping hand when we are in need. "jiang xin bi xin" If its within our capabilites, we should offer our helping hand as well.

Real happiness doesnt come from just receiving happiness but giving happiness to others as well.
