The friendships formed are priceless,

and the memories are forever and always.


It's been quite a while.
3 weeks, since we're back. Back to reality.

A lot of us really can't let go of this trip.
The memories live inside our head, and the pictures trigger emotions to run freely.
Sometimes, at random parts of the day, we would suddenly remember, and have this heavy feeling in our hearts.

Yes, this is not the end, but a new beginning. However, could this last?
How we wish that there's a Part 2!
The journey's far from finished. There's so much more.

For me, I just want to dive into the project and do it, because that is the only living memory left of this trip. The only thing that reminds us that this is real. How about you guys?

I don't know about the rest, but this has been the best experience for me. So much has happened and we're really blessed to be able to do this. One word: Awesome.

Yesterday, we went to the Farmer's Market in Chicago.
There, we went to look at some vegetation that the people there planted, which is organic and good for health.
After that, we went to the Washington park to do out CIP.
We were out in the open cold for 2 hours to harvest seeds from flowers.
We also learnt about the different species of trees there.
it was a good experience. Everyone was freezing together and were trying out creative ways to make ourselves feel warm. :D
We were also glad that we did something good for the community.
Feeling of satisfaction (:

After learning so much, we have finally came up with a concrete citizen action plan that we are going to execute in Singapore!

With the guidance of Ms Ng, we are set on the right track with regards to planning for our HUGE project.

There was a great sense of satisfaction amongst us as we did our citizen action plan today. We've managed to apply what we have learnt,hence, making the plan detailed and adding colour to the content.

The site visit to the buddhist temple enabled us to know more about buddhism. It was interesting to know how a buddhist temple would exist in America!

This is indeed a globalised country where people are starting to respect each other's race and religion!

Afterwhich, we headed down to rockford where the Cherry Vale mall was.

It was a nice and relaxing time of shopping where we got souvenirs for our loved ones and also buy things for ourselves.

As we shopped around, we learnt more about decision making.

Our parents are not around and we will all have to be responsible for ourselves. We weighed the pro and cons of buying certain things and eventually came to a decision.

It was hard as we had to consider the sustainability of the product and also if we had the financial means to buy it.

I had a good workout at the gym today:)
