have you ever feel the sensation of joy or happiness for example when you like a girl and you get it???? ok I felt something like that...the sensation of happiness was great...also because I was knowing my classmates and because I was Knowing this guys that we ignore every day...
the 3 hours I spent each Saturday were nice because I felt I can open my hermetic inner me and show myself more deeply than any common day... also for my classmates because we were not afraid of telling our lives, problems, and even ask for advices to them when the theme was love...
you dont imagine how much I though about that first impressions never work... they just create prejudges nothing else... you should give the chance of knowing the people around us... we live everyday ignoring the most important the people around us... we never notice them, and thats not a good way for living anywhere...
I learned a lot not only in the hours I spent on Saturdays but the whole semester because I learned I can do something to contribute, I can become a Leader or that we have the power of changing society for good not evil.

How To be Cooperative
Working together is an art form. Sharing skills, talents and, above all, learning to compromise is essential when working with groups of people. Be a team player by cooperating with group members. Improve personal and professional relationships and open the door for productive group interactions.
Step 1
Meet with the group, committee or board to define a corporate goal. Define your final outcome. Create an action plan to accomplish agreed upon goals. Write down the plan in small achievable increments.
Step 2
Set a date to reach each milestone with corresponding meeting to come together. Remind team members to shelve their own interests in favor of the collective goal.
Step 3
Understand the need to compromise on some issues. Decide what crucial components must be present in the final plan. Focus your energy on the assigned outcome, if an argument arises.
Step 4
Assess the perspectives of the group with an open mind. Resist being biased towards your own ideas and methods. Appreciate that differences exist between you and your group members. Value the differences and incorporated a variety of ideas into the joint project.
Step 5
Learn to transform multiple ideas into one. The spirit of cooperation involves many people coming together to contribute their expertise to one common goal. Take the lead in asking people to choose the most important aspect of their perspective and contribute it to the whole.
Step 6
Discuss ideas, not personalities. When being cooperative, it's important to respect the other people in room. Stop the members when accusations go beyond the scope of the work.

Saturday 25th
On Saturday 25th we went to los lagos, las riberas, el rio, castelago, we began at 12:00 till 3:30, we met an interesting guy called Xavier, he was working in a huge company but he got kicked of by the chiefs… he told us that he has 2 jobs he worked in a night club in Duran called El Gato and during day he work as the security manager in Los Lagos.
We had to do double ride because we they were more guards so we went back to prepare more sandwiches... it is almost an adventure sometimes we have to be quiet so the residents don´t notice us etc... I really enjoy it and most if we do it having fun
You notice when people opens, when people appreciate, and the most when people need to talk with somebody, in something really simple as talking with them, taking sandwiches to them with soda you realize the things you do, It opens your mind beyond the cristal box we live in, beyond our bank accounts by always connected to our heart.

Saturday 18th
on Saturday 18th we went to the complexes like Villa Club, Isla Sol, Lago Sol, Entre lagos, we met the security guards and in one of them we even had the chance to met the gardeners and pool guy… it was nice, we had a problem that day because we did 49 sandwiches and they were 58 so we went back to my house to do the rest of the sandwiches and went back to the complexes… We knew a guy that her wife has pancreatic cancer and is helped by the volunteers of ASVOHL, he told us he work 2 turns because he needs money for the injections and medicine her wife needs… a lady that lives in the complex help her when she heard about the case.
I have a true answer to my classmates who though what I was doing illogical and stupid… I can speak now more mature because I realized that in every social work we do, we do not only do one thing, many stuff come out and get us more and more involved with it… for example in my case, besides spending time with them, eating and laughing with them we make a paper of psychologist, friend etc.
