The First Service - collecting fallen leaves

Yesterday, I helped in a hospital with my friend, Na-Kyung. As my mother works in a private volunteer organization, I asked her to find a job for me. She offered me to help in a hospital on every Saturday. In this organization, there are many students from Russian universities who need to do public service as well. So I invited Na-Kyung, who’s in my CAS team.
 The service was collecting fallen leaves, and it was quiet difficult and tough than it seemed to be. It was totally new for me and I acquired a new skill. I also had to talk in Russian with other people in the volunteer group. I sometime translated Russian for Na-Kyung. I usually dislike talking in Russia as I know that I make some grammar mistakes and my pronunciation has accents. I also do not like new things or meeting new people. But yesterday, I was not afraid of making mistakes and I tried to be a better communicator. 
 The service took for about an hour and a half.

 ''No way...!!''


  ''We have a long long loooong way to go...''



   After 30 minets....

  
 
     We finally finished!!! Yeeeeey!!
