Be a volunteer for one day in Zoo Negara...

I went to Zoo Negara today...
A 19-years-old student still want to go to zoo?
Not for visiting...
But be volunteer for ONE day...

I woke up so early today morning...
Because Miss Ho kept reminding us that we must reach college by 7.15am...
But, in the end,
She is the last one!?

We went there by van...
Haha....
After giving the briefing, our volunteering job starts!!!

Luckily, Sue Wah and I were in the same group^^
My first duty: Sweep those dry leaves..
OMG!! There are so many dry leaves collecting site!!!
And we need to put all those dry leaves in the big plastic bags and then throw them away..
After we finish sweeping,
We were like half died already...
Haha... I know it is too over...
Just kidding :p

By the way, we were given the chance to feed those sea lions...
I had taken some photos..
Unfortunately, our supervisor said that we can't upload those photos to blog, friendster, facebook...
So sad...

Being a zookeeper is not that easy!
Besides training those animals, they need to keep the habitat clean.
There is no cleaner to sweep the dry leaves for them!
The zookeepers need to understand the animals very well which means they must be patient^^
Although they show the same performance everyday,
For them, it is not a boring task...
Because those animals' mood will be different everyday...
对他们而言,这不只是他们份内的工作。
这也是他们的兴趣、成就。。。

在我扫树叶时,我看见一只动物。
但我不知道那只是什么动物。。。
它一边望着我,一边发出叫声...
它的微微的叫声让我觉得它好像在说:
“请你放我出来,好吗?”
或许是我想太多...
但它的眼神、叫声,
让我感到一阵阵的心酸涌上来...
