1st time doing voluntary work @ UK

I was almost reluctant to wake up yesterday morning...but I have to because I had promised to do voluntary work to collect donation in front of a mall in the city. It was 1 of the voluntary event offered by the Voluntary Community. Yong Hao, Pei Ling & I signed up for this because they mentioned that a T-shirt will be given for those who participate. Pei Ling told me that she doesn't feel like going on the day before so it just left me & yong hao. The event started at 2pm but when I passed by yong hao's room at around 1pm he was still on his bed so I waked him up & forced him to accompany me!!! haha...

There were light rain the afternoon and we were late at the time we get there but what disappointed me was "No T-shirt was Given"!!! They just gave us a green strap[the 1 I wearing] & a GREEN bucket.....We felt a bit embarrassing to shout out loud at 1st but then v get the courage to do so by daring each other which means I shout once then Yong Hao's turn then my turn again~ "Any spare change for Macmillan CANCER support??"

I felt that I had become more brave & natural to shout out loud after the 1st few times & I was feeling good doing so. I treated this as a training for my self to become more extrovert and it was really an interesting experience which I can mention in my CV too~
