Unluckily, the life there was full of fighting and we had to look out for bullets and from time to time moved from one place to another.However, things are entirely different here. The problem people meet here is not the lack of water but the mud and water everywhere.. It is not convenient for people to travel from place to place・ The water makes it hard for the cuts and wounds to heal and destroys the fields and harvests, causing the further problem of people's malnutrition. Sometimes, when food came, people fight with each other to get it. Luckily, I can communicate w让h the people with the help of my good acting skills Thinking of what I did and am doing, I feel so proud of myself because I do all I can to make a difference to people's life on an individual level.Looking out for bullets and running from one place to another became a way of life.躲避枪林弹雨，展转奔波已经成了家常便饭。
