<p>Someone help me.</p>
<p>I don’t think many normal people do at first, but if it’s something you’ve really thought through you may end up really enjoying it, as I did.</p>
<p>Hhaha, everyone is like that at first. Go to an event with a couple thousand people, such as a major walk or something. Or a really emotional event, such as a Relay for Life event. That will change your opinion, as it did mine :)</p>
<p>Well, you can’t force yourself to want to do community service, but I think most people find it not that bad and actually enjoyable. What kind of community service do you have in mind? I personally like volunteering at the local public library (helping with arts and crafts, shelving/organizing books, occasionally interacting with children). I prefer stuff like that over helping in marathons where there is a frightening amount of people. Whatever the case, helping people really does give off a good feeling and is generally a very productive use of time. :]</p>
<p>im doing relay for life later this month.</p>
<p>If you don’t like the present community service programs, you can create your own. My friend and I opened a summer violin camp that went everyday for 3 weeks. It was very fun teaching small kids! We also made a bunch of jewelry (her mom’s a jewelry designer or whatever it’s called) and sold them by the community library and donated it to the library. This can all be considered community service!</p>
<p>^ Same thing. Instead of working at a soup kitchen during the summer, I started a Chess Mentoring Program at local library. I made a few librarian friends who helped me get a job at the library during the school year!</p>

<p>lol. I never really feel compelled to do life.</p>
<p>i did relay for life yesterday/today. it was amazing, and really emotional. i did not expect to be affected as much as i was by it. i think what really got me was a four year old girl who was walking around wearing a “survivor” pin, and one of the luminarias that said “i love you mom. rest in peace” in little kid handwriting. it really made me want to become more involved.</p>
<p>Yeah, Relay for Life was really emotional, and it made me want to get out there and volunteer more!</p>
