Service Day!

We had our first Service Day on October, 2014. My group of students and the teacher that was with us made our day awesome. We went to Shannon Oaks to spend some time with seniors and help doing some little works to help them. This experience was something incredible for me because I had the chance for to talk and share stories with the people there for the first time! We talked and compared activities and normal things that teenagers usually do, they also shared their great stories with us. It was very interesting to see how their lives have been so different from ours. I had the chance to talk to this senior named Margaret. We spent a lot of time talking about her life. She taught me a lot of precious things, and I also taught her some things that we do. One example of this is a "selfie". At the end of the day, I introduced Margaret to our technology (smart phones, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat). She was pretty surprised about the things she learned. Anyways, there are lots of things I could say but I'll just finish saying that my experience was unique and incredible! We had lots of fun and we enjoyed everything a lot!

Here is the selfie I took with Margaret!!
