Bucketlist Part Deux
January is almost ending and I've finally done alot of thinking and abit of soul searching this past few weeks. 2015 has thought me alot of things, so did the first two weeks of 2016 and I finally came up with a few bucket list that hopefully I can fullfill in the next 6 months
First of all, let me define what is a bucket list, according to my best friend, Mr Google, Bucketlist is "a number of experiences or achievements that a person hopes to have or accomplish during their lifetime."
While some of us have a whole bucket list to accomplish before a certain age, I'm going with some short term goals. Basically, 2016 for me is pushing the boundaries, MY boundaries. I can tell you, its not going to be easy, alot of will power will kick in.
I recently got involved in volunteering work. One of the things that i want to do in 2016 is to help those who are in need. I just found out yesterday there was such thing as Urban Poor where people who are currently living in KL/Damansara and PJ but they are still poor and end up going out at night, looking for recycle items to sell, this is super sad indeed. So next week, I'm planning to join the Pertiwi Soup Kitchen and to check out the situation itself, something like being on the ground to see how this people are before judging.
A few weeks back I actually became a volunteer for a Food Distribution that was organise by Al Khair Foundation. It was an NGO that a friend of mine was involved in.
25 volunteers (including a volunteer photographer and a volunteer videographers) were helping out on event day. There were also about 8 individuals from the community assisting with the program.470 food packs of rice, cooking oil, potato, dhall, red big onion, dried chilli, wheat flour, sardin, turmeric powder, curry powder, condensed milk, sugar, salt, coffee, tea and assorted biscuits were distributed to 470 individuals. The whole thing went well that we might do a few more at different areas.
