Reflective Journal

This is my first time doing a community service work and I am always interested in this kind of work but in other field like environment and animal conservation job.

This course provided me with experience of doing voluntary job and I realized that this is taking more effort than I expected.

From planning to executing, it requires everyone to discuss and the team leaders need to have good organization skills as well. I would like to thanks Ms Noji, as we are all busy over our course assignments and projects and it is very hard for Ms Noji to facilitate effectively.

The most memorable event is definitely the executing day, I realized that sometimes we need to take the initiative to help and solve the problem or otherwise the problem will be left unsolved for example, the upper part of the wall couldn't be painted as we were lack of ladder, so we need to borrow it from the exterior team.

This problem was hold until the end, as luckily we managed to finish in time.

Overall, this has been a precious memories for me in my uni school life.

Below are some options decided by our team leaders and needed to be voted by all of the classmates as the design of interior and exterior need to complement each other as well. Option 1: Catus and animals Option 2: Underwater world Option 3: The star and planets Our task is to co-ordinate with g...

After arriving at Taylor's University, we started to load the car with the necessities and books which we had collected for the library. On our way to Serendah, we were caught in a heavy traffic jam due to the accidents on the road and finally we reached there around 11!(and we were supposed to be there at 1000, so we were late obviously ) Without further saying, we just get straight to work. I, of course, to help them to paint the base coat. The job is easy, but without the ladder, the top part can barely be reached so we need to borrow the ladder from the team which is in charged of the exterior. The other teams are team of doors and windows and the exterior painting teams, we all worked at the same time as the clock was ticking fast! When the base coat was almost done, it's lunch time and we were all starving and decided to eat so we can work harder after that. Here came the interesting part and the highlight of the library, the mural painting! Ou...
