Clue 4: I volunteer

Here is my next clue. I am quite a regular volunteer nowadays, particularly during my holidays. And combine this with Clue 3 (I love technology), can you guess what sort of volunteering I do? Of course I am not going to fully elaborate on what sort of volunteering I do because it will be damn obvious to the people I know who I am. This clue thing is only getting started. So sorry to break the bad news.

But after I started volunteering, I feel that there is some hope in this world. I think everyone should volunteer at some stage in their life, and perhaps even once a week is good enough. The people appreciate it very much, and also it gives you great experience. I teach people specific skills I have, and they really do appreciate it. I do this once a week for about 1.5 hours, and I really enjoy it. I can the progression of improvement in the people that I teach, particularly the skills they have been practicing after I have taught them.

There is also excellent volunteering support in my community, and actually a friend encouraged me to do it. I try and do it as often as possible, but sometimes I cannot - so I tend to reschedule it to another time or day.

Another interesting thing about volunteering is I meet new people, and also I learn a lot from them as well. Some of the students are quite good at skills that I am not that great at, so we exchange ideas and experiences.

Besides volunteering today, I went to downtown to my old University. It was pretty cool to see the places I was, and also met up with some friends there for a quick coffee. Driving into downtown is not ideal, cost me heaps in parking fees, but it was worthwhile. The coffee catch up is the best kind of friendship catch up I think. Perhaps facebook should invite a coffee catch up application (hint hint). Hehehe.

I will catch up with you all soon, I am working on some other projects (unrelated to Ten Million Friends).
