But did you people know you are richer than 70% of the people in the world assuming you get RM350 a month.
Bet you all didn't thought if it this way. While we whine about not having the latest gadgets, those 70% actually whine for food, clean water, a roof over their head or at least proper education for their children.
Look, this is what most poverty struck children look like.
Well, we have a choice whether we want to ask for the luxurious gadgets but those people can't even ask for basic necessity like food. And you people have the nerves to complain that your parents are stingy and mistreat you.
Most of us tends to be like that when our parents reject our wish list for luxurious items. I know I did when my parents rejected my request.
All I'd asked for was a
Lamborghini Diablo
I was upset at first when my parents rejected my request but after the camp I realized that I should be grateful for getting education, food, clean water, a roof over my head and more importantly their love.
F.A.M.I.L.Y.
Father and Mother I Love You
Hence, I would not ask them to buy me the beautiful sports car, not until I get my driving license first.
I had fun in the camp which is situated in my secondary school.
Methodist Boys Secondary School Kuala Lumpur.
I had dim sum for breakfast before we started the fasting.
It was good but I sort of dislike the food because it wasn't up to my standards.
But today, when the fasting was declared over.
I had this, in corn flavor which tasted bad normally, but at that point I was crying tears of joy being able to chew something solid after 30 hours of not touching solid food.
Well, I am partially to be blamed since I ran around during the Treasure Hunt, played basketball and played football as well. I bet you people would react this way.
You people would probably say what the heck is Steven thinking? Being so active when he hast to fast. It's suicidal.
But it's kinda funny.
I wasn't hungry, well at least I wasn't til food was shown to me this morning.
But I had lots of Soya Bean and Chocolate Milk (which was allowed). We refrained from eating that's all.
We then took an LRT to Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil.
The event was awesome.
Among the famous people were
梁静茹
Besides her
He was there
王光良
and him
張智成
And we have him too
易桀齐
and my favorite singer of all
罗忆诗
where she had a duet with
Fransisca Peter
They sang my current favorite song.
明天孩有希望
It is a touching song, a must hear.
小小的眼光
失去了光芒
即使小小的手掌也有权飞翔
大大的梦想
失去了力量
哪儿有大大的肩膀温暖他心房
明天孩子们会有希望
会长出耀眼的翅膀
朝着那温暖的风和光 清清的飞扬
the world we live in
can do with giving
a child today
is a child of our tomorrow
I've seen the children
who have been broken
by wars and hunger and natural disaster
so broken
when tomorrow comes
we must have hope
we must reach out to every single child
when tomorrow comes
we spread our love
and make it a better day
生活会有悲和喜
we've gotta pray and do our best
只要伸出我们的手
to bring you a better tomorrow
明天孩子们会有希望
会长出耀眼的翅膀
when tomorrow comes
we spread our love
and make it a better day (Repeat once)
I had lot of fun with my friends.
I would love to take this opportunity to thank my friend Alexandra and her friend Ruenn Das (Haagen Dazs Ambassador) for making my weekends a blast.
I feel sad going back to college as I won't see them for some time again.
I will never regret starving myself for 30 hours as it was worthwhile.
Pictures will be updated as soon as possible when i get them from my friends.
Signing off and let's make a difference by lighting their lives.
If you miss this year, remember to join next year.
