Hmm.....enjoying last week holiday...soon is the beginning of my life of second year in occupational therapy, UKM.
i was planning to go volunteer work for 2 weeks with ming sze and chong wei in Selangor Cheshire Home in Selayang but ended up only 8 days being there. i did not put much expectation in this volunteer work of learning things about my course but still what happened there was lower than my very low expectation. knew much about the management system there after 2, 3 days and with one of my eye closed. don't want to talk much about how it works. maybe thinking why i did not take action about it but just with 1 of my eye closed. sometimes when you are "small" and people kept saying that : i also don't want to do like that, this is XXXX's order...and we are ended up with sulking as what the residents described us (good observation from residents....lol). the most disappointed words were not from the staff there or the residents or other volunteers BUT was from the 1 that asking us to join and promising to send us go there and ended up with her's forgetfulness ( i think until now she still not remembers that she had promised to send us there but forgot it like ntg happened) .
Gold words from her: "You all first year know nothing, of course have to do anything".
hmm...'know nothing'....hmm....'do anything'....
Fine...i think we will talk and discuss face-to-face later. a lot explanation and corrections are needed.
anyway, by doing 'know nothing' and 'do anything', i had still earned something there. most of the residents are nice. i was trying not to have ill-feeling with some of them but sometimes it was hard. just that i was trying not to make the feeling worse. a lot of the residents have stayed there for a long time...the longest period from 1 of the resident which is also the eldest is 45 years. different stories from different residents. at first, i was still thinking will the resident mind to be asked about their life stories and about what causes their diabilities. OHhh....forgot to tell that this home are with residents who are OKU. a lot of them are actually finding people to talk to.
volunteering in cheshire has made me understand OKU a lot as this is the first time that i was in very close distance with them and staying with them too. i had known a lot of the residents's personality and attitude. hope to have a day visit there that more people will go together.

after that, hang around sungei wang and TS a while and went for dinner. order a set dinner with yin yeong as drink.
couldn't sleep on that night...not because too happy.OMG! forgot the dinner drink- yin yeong(coffee+tea). normally after 6pm, I will not drink coffee or tea but that day i have totally forgotten. 3stg a.m. still with my eyes open...forgot what time i fall asleep.
it did work yesterday! at least not the cold atmosphere as i thought at first. we had our lunch gathering in kim gary, maluri jusco. waited for long time to get seated ytd as it was mother's day. although it was not fully attended by all members of the class, but still not bad. hoping for another gathering before sem break ends.
OMG! heard about the news at sun 11++ night. COCHRANE CC won state competition....bringing back AC cup, NC cup and also the President cup...wow...really so surprised and happy! NC team, good job! i think this had fulfill the dreams of the NC state team starting from my batch.
AC team won all gold in all three categories- foot drill, short case and long case NC team won 2 gold-foot drill and short case, and still, home nursing part is the weakness. (as last time my team) irreversible, cochrane cc won the president cup.....congrats! soon Cochrane CC will represent Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur in National competition on 30 may 09. it's been long time that CRS C/C which is now known as CCC waiting for it. and happy that it happens with CCC has both AC and NC team represents KL.
received shu kim's sms asking me go back to help you all. hope that i manage to go back to meet you all, and hopes that my knowledge has still in my full-ish head. gambateh!
i think not forgot to thank 1 person which last time made me and my other team members suffered a lot---that is, my trainer. there was no NC team out for state comp for her year, but she was working hard to teach and train my team and looking for all sources of info to help us. and because of her, the spirit of NC team could be passed from my generation to next and finally once again....NC team, gambateh!
