Through service learning, I understand that there are many people out there in this society that requires our attention and help. Although some of us may whine about the immense pressure on us due to the tons of homework given to us by our teachers, I feel that it is really fortunate of us to be able to be born with normal intelligence and normal. We should not take things that are always present around us for granted. There are times where others may not be as privilege as us. Besides that, I also feel that helping others in need is what all Singaporeans should do. 

The best thing during service learning was the sale of the ice creams. As there were leftover ice-cream, some of us went around the canteen and asked students to help to purchase the ice-cream. Although some of them refused to purchase the ice-creams, I feel that the time and effort spent on the sale of the ice-creams were all worthwhile. Spending time to help the society is definitely not a waste of time!

I feel that helping others come deep from the heart. As long as you have the determination to help others,  age will not be a factor. Hence, it is only right to contribute to the society when you are working or studying in a Junior college. Help should always be present to those who requires help. The happiness gained from helping someone is far more satisfying than that of winning a game against your friend. Therefore, its never too late nor too early to contribute to the society.
