Entry:
On the 26 August, some of the boys from the home went down to NTU's SRC to attend the Annual sports heat. All of them reached the stadium by 8am. It was not just a sports heat for the boys home. It was a sports heat for all the homes in Singapore! There are probation homes, girls home, girls hostel, children homes and many more.

Marcus, Hafiz and Haizal were there to take part in the heats. They sacrificed their saturday just to represent the home for this event. Marcus took part in the 4 x 400m relay while Haizal took part in the 100m race. Haizal got second for his event. It was a close race for Hazal. He and his competitor stepped the line almost at the same time. Never mind Haizal, I believe that in the finals on next sat, you can beat that guy. As for Hafiz, I think he got second for his event too. I think Hafiz did not eat much for his breakfast. He went to look for me and kept complaining about how hungry he was and how "sucky" his breakfast was. I wanted to get him some food but the canteen was just too far. So, I just watched him suffer in hunger. =)

As for Marcus, I think he really run his lungs out. He looked super pale after the race. I hope he is okie by now. Well done Boys!! It doesn't matter what placing you get for the race. What matters most is that you guys did your best. I am so proud of you guys!!

Some good news for all of us. Haizal is out of the boys home. The Dean of students happened to be there when we had the sports heat. He praised all of us for organising such an event in NTU. He also promised to give us support whenever we need. The manager from block D told me that he will pump in funds if we organise events for the boys home and he really hopes that we can come down during the Dec camp to help out. So yupz.. hope that all of us are able to make it for the Dec camp. =)

BTW, the Welcome Tea was a success! Everyone loved our video and all of us had a great day. We went supper after the welcome tea because there were simply not enough food for all the gluttons in the YOUTH! - All my volunteers, centre heads and youth coordinators are so funny and lovable - Hahaha. We rock rock ROCK!
