10 June (Tuesday)
Second day of school in Sri Kumaran. We did not get to interact much with the kids over there.
Along the corridors of Sri Kumaran Children Home, you would be able to see many motivational quotes of the wall. They are really encouraging and motivational! :D
We had tea break everyday before our lunch and it is always black tea with biscuits :D
CLASS SHOT! 2D! :D
PRECIOUS PHOTO! My one and only picture with Mrs Lim :D
Then we were split up into 2 groups and went for Chemistry and Physics lessons respectively and we switch lessons after each.
My group went for Physics lesson first and we learn about the reflection of light through a denser medium. :D
In Chemistry lesson, we did not do any hands-on activities. The teacher showed us some experiments and the chemical reactions of some chemicals :D
LOOK! Who's Spectacles? SAM!!!
View of Sri Kumaran from the outside with Esther and Mister Soh :D
After school, which ended at about 2.30, we went for shopping! The shopping areas were quite tight, we had to leave our bags outside the shop before we could enter.
Debrief At night. After debrief we had dinner... Mister Soh was proud of what we have done at the Orphanage and decided to reward us with a little elephant :)
And.. Jowie was massaging for Mister Soh!!!

My camera got loads of picture of this Yellow Man. I'm not the one who took pictures of him!!
Esther forced the Yellow Man (Sam) to pose with her. haha!
11 June (Wednesday)
Morning breakfast is always bread toast for me/ us. The other food is not very good for our tummy :D
School started with Indian painting lesson. I learn that Indian painting always have double lining, etc. Mister Soh has an artistic side leh!
After learning the culture of Indian Painting, we continued with Indian dance. Famous Indian dancer who had dinner with President S.R. Nathan taught us more about Indian dance and his daughter even demonstrated for us.
The students even prepared 2 dance items for us :D
After that, it was our turn to learn dancing and in the end we just started dancing like nobody's business. Maybe I was the only one that is feeling HIGH! :D
GEEK Transformation!! We had maths lesson after that and they taught us about Verdic Maths, it is some special ways of solving maths sums that is discovered by Indian.
HOME VISIT!!!
WE were then separated into 3 groups, going to 3 different houses for home visit. I went to Ashwini's house. Her house is really nice :D
Her mum and granny kindly prepared some snacks for us. So sweet :)
We had a mini ice breaker game. Its just like the game of SNAP. Gig lost in the game and...
That is his prize!!! :D
Then many of us tried the Sarees. Mrs Lim was so excited and happy when Ashwini's Mum was dressing her up. :D
Even Nicholas tried on the Saree while I had the guy's costume, Dhoti.
Sean joined in too! :D
Group shot for all the kids there :D
Aswani then showed us to the games room at the top level of her house. It was quite fun for us to enjoy in there.

Next, we went to the park for a game of basketball with 3 other friends of Ashwini.
We also walked around the park...

We went back home for a sing along session, had dinner and exchanged gifts with one another. :)
On our way back to hotel. The taxi driver met with an accident. Many of us were scared and afraid and the driver even quarreled loudly. But luckily, nothing happened in the end after a long quarrel.
Outside the Hotel! :D
12 June (Thursday)
Last day in Bangalore. Still having the same toast bread for breakfast.. :D
Nicholas has been asking me on how to clear his blackheads during the trip, so i decided to take this cute shot with him :D
And...
After awhile. I dropped my camera and it is spoil.
We had jewelery making lesson in school. It was quite a nice and interesting one and after our break it was a mini farewell party for us. It was cut short because we were running out of time.
The friends from Sri Kumaran taught us some songs while we had food presentation, story telling and sing along session with them :D
After that, we exchanged gifts with our friends, exchanged emails and also took some photos. We could not bear to leave each others. I was on the verge of tears :(
One last shot with Esther outside the school :)
We made our way to Mainland China restaurant for a buffet lunch. Many of us enjoyed it while Jeannette thought that al of their food contains either Chili or Pepper and she could not take it...
Then we went to a place where they sold all kinda of books and stationery. We all got many of the gel pens that we used for Indian Painting lesson. It is cheap and good to use :D
We went back Hotel for packing and washing up and had our last dinner there.
On the bus, I joked about Mister Soh showering with Sam...
And this was what I got from Mister Soh... :P
Arrived at the Airport. The security was really tight and Bye Bye Bangalore! :D
