Jerome's Reflection >:)

HElLO! its Jerome here. I'm one of the lucky 9 chosen to post my reflections for the service-learning session on 6th october.
Definitely, it was a really wonderful bonding and learning session today. I had buckets full of fun with my group and I feel that we definitely have lots of CHENGMISTRY! xD

"In serving you, I wish to learn from you" a very enlightening quote indeed. This was my greatest take-away that day. During the sessions today, I had the self-realisation that in taking part in this outreach project, by going out to help the people in yunnan, I'm equal to them all. I'm no superior being from them and I have a lot to learn from them.It is important that I constantly remind myself to stick to this mindset of equality and not stray from it. Only then can I be humble enough to learn from this journey.

Truthfully, I did'nt expect to learn much from today. I'm amazed at how much I've benifited from the session today. So much more, SO unthinkable what and how 14 days in yunnan will do to my whole perspective of life. I'm sure it'll change. In what way? We'll see >:)
