"好累啊！" & "very tired...!" haf alr bec0me the c0mmon quotes hanging by every corner of everyone's mouths nowadays. yeps , we're all exhausted, frm schooling, work , nn all the stress ! tat's the reas0n (more like an excuse) why ii hardly blog, I`M TIRED, and LAZY. yet another hectic, busy week has passed , didnt post on the weekend, was too held up by all the other things ii had to do .. like , preparing ferh CNY ! sh0pping ard , getting the things we need ferh CNY , hunting ferh this nn that .. gahhs , nn ii haf yet to get muh dress !! we'll be heading d0wn to far east tml , to do s0me m0re shopping .. !! =D hope ii`ll find muh dress , awww ..



it's a wednesday today . went to do CIP at the bishan hm ferh the intellectually disabled .. ii was really scared to go dere , to go near the residents dere .. ii mean , n0t tat ii think they are dirty or tat ii despise them , it's tat , ii dunno h0w to c0mmunicate with them , h0w to help them , ii dd0nt haf tat patience ! ii jjus didnt kn0w h0w to handle them , like , wad if ii pr0voked them ?! these ppl are sensitive ones , ii wudnt kn0w wad to do .. ! walked dere as a class after sch , seperated into grps -one ferh cleaning up the canteen area , one to do up the garden , and the last one , which ii was in , had to do the activities we planned , with the residents in the home . yups . we were brot upstairs to the third floor , whr the ladies dwell . pr0bably bec0s girls are less aggressive , it wud be easier ferh us to handle them . stood by the corridor nn waited to go into the rm nn start the activities with th0se residents . as we waited , we heard a voice frm the second floor , a man screaming , nn banging on things . luckily we gurls except ferh huanni , didnt look down . a man was running ard . NAKED . as the corridor wasnt quite wide , we cud easily glance at the storey downstairs , nn see the naked man running abt , the guys covered us . they just sto0d dere to block our view frm frm seeing obscene things .. great , pr0tective nn gentlemanly guys they are , our class guys . =)) okaes , we were led into an area , like a little "gallery" whr we had a view of the hall downstairs .. residents were practising on stage , CNY songs nn perf0rmances .. ii was really scared , didnt dare go near the women sitting dere waiting ferh us .. but after a while , ii eased a bit , nn got along pretty well with th0se ladies .. they were all middle aged women , poor them .... let them do some coloring nn drawing of cards . =) on of them drew a house , nn wen asked wad that is , SHE SAID IT WAS HER HOME , BISHAN HOME. really touching ! awwww ... hahhas . as the session came to an end , ii was feeling unexpectedly reluctant , didnt wanna leave , still wanted to haf m0re fun with the residents dere , altho it wasnt easy c0mmunicating with them .. hahas .. had a de-brief , walked bak to sch , nn hm .



seriously , ii didnt want to enter that hm at all at first , was really nervous , ii didnt know wad wud happen next , h0w ii was going to hand th0se ppl in dere .. but as we interacted , ii got to kn0w tat they are nice ppl , only tat their mentality is of kids much younger than they really are .. seeing the smiles on their faces that we brought to them , made miie feel proud , nn a tingling bit of touched .. =D it feels good to do sth meaningful like this .. ! =))
