The volunteers (or those who made it early enough to get their picture taken)
Athletes dancing on stage during Gala Night ❤ much cuties
All the winners and volunteers on the final day
So from December 3rd-6th, I was involved in the 5th Special Olympics Brunei Darussalam(SOBD) Asia Pacific Bocce Tournament. It was really fun and eye opening for me and I got to learn alot. Moreover, the organisers were so nice. They gave us lunch and bottled water everyday and even buns for tea time. I mean, if I ever organised a volunteering activity, I would never be that nice HAHA. If I'm not mistaken, there were 5 participating countries (today is January 29,2016) which were: Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Brunei. Everyone won a medal at the end of the day and the looks on their faces...I mean just <3 Seeing their faces as they receive their medals and bask in the flashing camera lights. It's something you don't see everyday, which made that moment worth more. The Gala dinner on the night of the last day was held at Parkview Hotel (previously known as Asma Hotel). WE HAD A GALA DINNER. A FREE Gala Dinner. AHAHA. They are saints. And we were given goodie bags (more free food). When it was time to Karaoke, the athletes got on stage and danced to their heart's content. All in all, it was an amazing yet tiring experience that I'd someday like to take part in again.
