YOUNG HEARTS run free.

"The tsunami alert was definitely the biggest shock of the month, and maybe for the year, or even the coming decade. But it is also like a wakeup call for me, the incident made me think so much and reevaluate life. After all of the chaos and confusion, when the “panic stage” was over, we went back to the resort to help out. Back at Market Place, a complimentary dinner was being served to all the in house guests. Apparently, almost all the Thai staff had rushed back home to ensure that their family was safe, so those who stayed behind was mostly the higher management of the resort. Looking at how the managers rolled up their sleeves and start clearing the plates, I was just glad that I am still alive and I am really pleased that everyone is still had the peace of mind to be able to sit at market place to have a meal. I am now more glad to be able to serve and contribute; service from the heart, with a smile."

"There is this Chinese proverb. It is similar to "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." - The word "Rome" is not in the proverb. Literally, its means something like, “When entering a village, follow their customs.” My first month here was definitely “April-FULL’s”, full of the unexpected, etcetera and other etcetera-ish things, and I look forward to more exciting events happening next month. Learning never stops here, each day I will bring home pocket full of new knowledge and experiences."
