c0mpt0n

These past three days have been amazingly amazing! I was only at the Compton church for two days but I got so attached to those kids! OMG! There were kids crying when we left and it made me feel so bad! But those kids really made me think about how lucky I am. I had to think before I asked any questions to the kids because they are not kids that have everything. I asked a little girl if she was going to take her craft to her mom and then i'm like.....oops.....maybe she doesn't have a mom. It was extremely eye-opening! I love those kids so much! I also bonded really well with the team that was there. They are so much fun! I made like 5 new amigos who I love to death! I really got attached to one of them so it sucked when I left. But I had so much fun! We went to the aquarium and the beach today! It was fun! But yeah. We had so many good times! The only bad things that happened was on thursday night.....one of the chicas was sick and started throwing up so we stayed in the bathroom with her until we got kicked out and told to go to bed which was at like 11:30. And my neck absolutely killed me everyday apart from today. It was probably aggrivated by three of us sleeping on an airmatress that was meant for two people. Last night I had my own air matress so my neck felt much better this morning though! Apart from that...the past three days have been awesome!
