Jalanan Night with awesome people
Guys, tell you what? I almost forgot to write about the Kedai Jalanan that happened last Thursday. Because most of the trips are organised on weekend so you know I am not that y-o-u-n-g anymore...
*but I still believe I am not that old HAHA Sorry to jump out the point, we were so grateful that we had invited by the Kedai Jalanan to be one of the helpers of the day.
Very first thing to starts off for the blog, in fact that we are supposingly to have a plan B for our transportation but fortunately our lecturers made the miracle happened. Therefore, we have no need to worried about the issue like what Grab car cost 15 bucks, public transport, carpool....?? I am seriously have no idea if we really can't get the school bus and we have to bring tons of STUFFS (clothes, pants, shoes,accessories) all the way to the destination. Oh dear! I really can't imagine that. Thanks to the hard work by our lecturers. *clap for them woohoo Well, on that day, we used almost 2 hours to reached the destination because of the rainy day. *thanks to the bus driver too
So, we were here at Kedai Jalanan nearly 8.30 pm and the place was not expected as what I thought. Actually, I thought we will do the service in front of the shopping mall. *Am I think too much?// LOL Kedai Jalanan is a place that offer some used stuffs (clothes, pants, shoes, accessories) and food to the people who live around in order to have the shopping chance since they are in not-so-rich condition. It is an event like helping out the people to satisfy their need and want. When I heard of the trip purpose, I feel very excited and happy that can participate this event with bunch of people to do something meaningful and helpful. Not just that, UM students and some volunteers also involved in this event.
Event organizer of Kedai Jalanan
Alright, after we had heard the brief by the organizer and received the position as what we need to do when the event is started. Well, I am in-charge the 2nd row of the track that control the people with only grab 2 items, also act like a "promoter" to introduce the suitable clothes to the particular customer politely. Okay, it sounds very E.A.S.Y but what I can said is: NO IS HARD MAN! Come, I show you something.
The crowds are waiting for the event to begins
They are all people a.k.a human, but they are really out from your expectation. NO JOKES. Why I say so. They were like group of zomb** come over and speedy grab all the things they want. "Luckily" I am at the female clothes area that take care all the female, such as girl, aunt, and grandma. The situation is like supermarket having a BIG SALE and BUY 1 FREE 100**, all the people like out of mind and pick whatever they can, Omg I can't believe it that was really happens in front of me. I am so shocked. *unfortunately I couldn't took the photo when they were "picking" the items
Area of female clothes
Area of male clothes
Area of shoes and accessories
Just one hour passed, the people almost did their best to grab what they really want. What I can seen from their face is happily and thankful. The moment is very worthy. This is because they were really happy to have the chance to shopping even though it was only one hour since they definitely have no opportunity to go for shopping mall to purchase the luxury or high quality items.
From the event, I had learnt something important for life.
<Appreciate> always appreciate what you have and what you don't have
<Satisfaction> always satisfy what is happens and why is happens
<Thanksgiving> always be blessed to be who you are
Las but not least, I always feel growing up after an new trip, because of the people, environment, feeling, emotions and other issue, all these always freshing my mind and thought. I am really thankful that I still can learn more.
