Back form the 30 hours famine camp @Wrp.Rp was realli nice n well facillitate, it was like fully air conditioned. Simply loves the place.B4 the camp we r grp into diff grp of all the diff 3rd world coutry. My grp is " Zambia".Well it was a very enjoyable and a very meaningful camp. In the camp we get to know lots stories of how ppl living in the 3rd world is going thru with poverty & AIDS. Its realli sad to hear wad they r facing.These ppl r soo poor that they hav b starve for days n weeks.They also do not hav excess to clean water that they have to drink muddy water.You also get to know that they work so hard to earn a living but their hard work could onli earn them for like 5o cents or a dollar. Some kids even have to pick up rubbish. Aids n other diseases r also intruding in their lives. Some children as young as 4/5 have to go thru chlid prosituiton for a living which cause them to hav aids n some r being passed down by their parents. I realli feel alot for these ppl. B4 goin to the camp i jux wanted to go there with my frenx for the fun n some experience. But after going thru the camp i had realli found my true purpose. I realli wanted to help these ppl n these poor children. They r realli innocent n why do they hav to deserve all these sufferings. Well we get to play these game where we got to experience how these ppl hav to go thru in order to live. We get to form our leaders which is the precsident n the member of parliment n each family to hav a family head. we will hav ppl to hav aids, ppl to b disabled, mute n blind. Well my role is a healthy child not like my other frenx sarah n rina who r aids carrier. well its jux like a country where ppl got to work, childen to go to sch, paitient to go to hospital n every one to go for vaccination. so as a child i got to go school. in the mist of it we also got to collect water n food n everything we got to queue up to get approval den we r able to hav it. sometime it ran out we got to wait veri long for the queue gor it. it realli make u feel frustrated. well u got also c ppl starting to do illigal jobs like drug dealer, prosituition n organ dealer which they could eran more. this realli reflects how desperate ppl can b to make a living. After tat we hav some talks n Q & A. After tat we r to gather in our country to form a big circle, light up a candle n place it in the middle of our circle. Each candle means a life. Later, the candle was being blown off one by one by the envoys. its realli saddening as each candle being blown means one life's is being taken.
