Visit To Children With HIV/AIDS

From WAKE webpage..'every child matters and every child, regardless of his or her family background, has the best possible start in life'.Give them a chance.Think about it.
ON the 22nd of December, Me and a group of friends visited Rumah Wake to celebrate christmas with the children there. This is a very interesting event to share personally..By the Way, Rumah Wake is at Setapak,KL. First of all, due to some 'unforeseen' circumstances (Bin's car went the wrong way..=p) so it didn't really go as planned as first. We were suppose to have dinner first..haha. We reached Setapak RIGHT ON TIME and everyone was cooperative to visit the children first although some of them were starving..(Ping.hehe) I just remembered..I didn't even have the chance to eat the biscuits from macau..=(
I would say that celebrating christmas with the children was an interesting experience. They were all really friendly..and they respected us. It's hard to believe that these wonderful children were in the position of having AIDS.Innocence.
We started with an icebreaker to know all the children better and well..'break the ice'. Oh yea..Thanks to Clement and Jing for thinking of the games..=) Well, we only had 2 hours to do everything so the whole programme was quite packed. I have no idea what the name of the games were..but i'll just name it as to how i feel it should be named..=p I remembered some 'bomb country','banana', 'spiderman/superman'..that's just to name a few..There were plenty more games actually.
Before that, there were about 16 children(including baby) in the house and 10 of us. I was really happy seeing how some children enjoyed themselves running around and having fun while playing games..Just brings the smile to my face..^_^
You gotta go to feel the experience..so therefore i shall cut the story shorter. After playing the games..we started singing christmas songs together with the children. Some of the songs were 12 days of christmas!(Edwin loves it), We wish you a merry christmas, jingle bells, and many more! I love the atmosphere when everyone sits around in a circle and sing..personally..it gives me a really good feeling.
Well, after singing..before we could realise..2 hours has passed. We quickly rushed to get the gifts and passed to the children. By the time that ended, It was already 10. I think the worst thing about everything for me was saying goodbye to the children. I have no idea when i might come back to see them again..I hope i do..
STARVING!..We drove to SS2 to eat..there's some story in between such as me making a wrong turn but nobody wants to hear that right? =D..That's about it! I REALLY recommend celebrating christmas with the unfortunates..it's an experience worth while..Trust me!
You might be wondering why there's no pictures..Well, due to the children's background..we cannot take pictures..therefore the memories are only in our minds! haha..
Anyways, I'll write the names so that i can remember who went..haha..
Thanks to Bert,Bin,Clement,Edwin,Fong,Jing,Pearly,Ping,Shan for coming!
