随笔 Day2_Weekend This weekend I took part in two volunteer activities. Yesterday I went to a community geracomium with other six students. It was the first sunny day this week after the whole rainy weekdays. So we all felt very joyful. There I met many elderly man, most of them are in their 70s, and some are even over 80 years old. Our job was to accompany the elderly by chatting with them. Among them there was an old grandpa who impressed me most. He has been lived there for 17 years. 84 as he is, he looks like 70 years old. Because he looks really vigorous. He was very conversable and told us many things he did when he was young. I have to say it's really interesting to listen to old people to recall their young age. Then he sang Chinese opera, it was fantastic,though I couldn't understand the words. Since it's my first time to chat with them, I was shy at first and didn't know how to chat with them naturally. But then I was encouraged to sing a song, and I felt better after that. Grandpa took us to tour around the nursing home and his room. He is so hospitable that he gave us many small gifts. Time always passes quickly. We had to say goodbye to them at noon. This morning I participated in a children creative bazaar to work as a volunteer. After that I visited Ningbo Art Gallery, where I appreciated many Chinese calligraphy works. At night, I had dinner with my friends. It was a full weekend.
