Another big confession after volunteering.

this was made in May 2012.

There is a huge target created by the student association in my campus, gain ten thousands blood pressure of different people in my town. A stupid but amazing goals. So, in seven days, fifty five student must get at least one hundred eighty two blood pressure of different people, voluntarily. Yeah, clever idea guys, a great way  to make me insane. At the first day, when we were separated into couple of groups and went to some place to measure the bloody blood pressure, we went to the busiest market in Bengkulu. Pasar Panorama. Gosh, it’s a great great pressure at first, but in that four hours, we had fun. Meet new people, socialize, try to blend with them, it’s such a unique experience. Gave our efforts to voluntarily measure their blood pressure, make them realize about their health, have some new friends (those kids who followed us around), and got a discount :p (this is a mutualism). We get about two hundreds fifty blood pressure. At the end of the day, we felt like we were angels. Helping people voluntarily. Hey, it’s such an amazing feelings to help people, to be a social workers. The annoying fact is, that i can still clearly hear the heartbeat in my ear, because we heard the beat on the stethoscope for about four hours. But we still have a huge mission to accomplish, ten thousands, yeaaah!
On the way back home, i just realized that i have thrown away the opportunity—student youth exchange—that if i totally focused on it, i’ll be the chosen one, and be the international volunteer. It’ll be so much fun. Haaahhh *take a deep breath*

I wrote these confession when I was in the 'waiting for the result' phase. I joined the selection for youth exchange program, but I felt like I did not give my best, so, I thought I couldn't make it. Here I am now, the alumnae of the program. I volunteered. I am still volunteer :)
