That's one small bike for the kids, one giant leap for community service

First thing: GoT!!!!! Good riddance you (you know who I am talking about)

Second thing: OITNB (Orange is the New Black): If you haven't watched this series yet, I implore you to skip all sort of productive work this Saturday/Sunday and watch.

Last weekend we had the great opportunity to build bicycles for our community. Everyone showed up to this event with smiles on their faces and eagerness in their eyes. Looking around the Sports Coliseum, a great group of people showed up to support their community. It is a great sight to see such a large group of young individuals striving to better the community. We all spent a year focusing on our studies, so to come together to have some fun and contribute to the lives of others is an experience not often experienced.

I have to say I have never had a more interactive and proactive community outreach experience in my life. It was great to interact with others who you probably have no connection with at all. The bottom line between us all is that we are young researchers who enjoy helping others.

A great thing to take from volunteering is that you can utilize the team building relationships and communication skills to come up with new ideas in your research.
