I remember when I was in college, World Youth Day was celebrated here in the Philippines. I was a participant and I was very excited about it. It was really fun and my blockmates and I met a lot of new friends from different countries. One of my blockmates was even lucky enough to be a volunteer in a group who will guides special kids with cerebral palsy. Of course we didn’t see the Pope up close but it was still very moving. We traveled around the metro for a couple of days and on the final we spent the night in Luneta Grandstand. We almost had no sleep that night and the next day, at the end of the event, we had to walk going to Manila City Hall just to get a ride. It was an unforgettable experience for me!
