Save My Starving Children


Something interesting happened last Saturday. I went to Chicago to volunteer in an organization called "Save My Starving Children" to pack food for starving children around the world. The trip was a bit tiresome coz we had to get up at 4:30 and leave school at 5:15 and it was around 3 hours to drive there. But at the end of the day, we were so happy that we used our time to help the need. We packed 1 year of food supply for 68 children. Isn't that awesome?? ^^
Well, I'm going there again when I have chance. It always feels so good to help others. =)

Back @ School!

It's nice to be home again though the break was awesome. I went to Florida to visit my aunt. The weather was so warm...like my country. My aunt has a 4-year-old daughter so I was baby-sitting my cousin most of the time. But I was lucky enough to get a chance to visit Miami and the Disney World. It was wonderful!
Anyway, I am so excited to get back to school. I am taking my favorite classes this semester; drawing class and public speaking. I'll share my drawings when I have learnt to draw a decent picture. ^^
The weather is pretty cold now. My friends told me that January is the coldest month in Ripon. And they are right! Last night it dropped to -25 degree F. So I stay bundled up! =D
