aug 9 :)

After days of staying inside my apartment, the sun finally showed up and the weather was finally better. So, I encouraged my roommates to go outside and buy donations for our fellow countrymen who were greatly devastated by the monsoon.Since I've save a lot of portion of my money because I'm not going out for the past few days, I bought canned goods, noodles, milk, coffee, sanitary napkins, diapers to donate. I gave my donations to the relief center located near the vega center. But I'm not contented of just donating goods. I volunteered to join in their relief operation. Since I'm just a newbie here in LB, I didn't join yet the distribution since I'm not yet familiar with the place and I'm just available for one hour only. Ate Cezsy assigned me to roam around the campus to collect financial assistance. It's really an awesome experience for me especially because it's my very first time to do that. Somehow, I'm not very comfortable soliciting money to other people but then I managed to do it because I really want to help. I was strucked because everytime that I asked someone to donate, without a doubt, they would readily give money, even if it is just coins or peso bill. Some people even donated Php50. I reminisced my HS years, in Canossa School, we were taught to be a Christian Person Sharers of God's Love. And it is so great to witness Filipinos helping
one another especially with this kind of situations. #bangonPilipinas
