Final Evaluation done... ...
There's definately more room for improvements..... but well, not as bad as I expected la...
CSM was late.... she thought it was 4.30pm, when it was supposed to be 2-4pm.... so both me and Z didn't get to be observe by her....
So, was it a blessing in disguise?
Yes.... I've heard it before.... it was from CSM.....
Now it was from my sup....
The C word.... committments....
Yes... i do agree I have lotsa committments..... from NPCC to TEAM to YEC......
But wait..... aren't these committments the ones who helped me grow.... go on with life?? Those that brighten my days when I am down??
I felt that I am listening to my heart more than my head nowadays.....
I hate committments actually.... thus.... these committments are those that I think thru and I can commit to it... before I decide to go on with it.....
NPCC.... it has become a less of a comittment nowadays due to the 5 day work week.... and seeing my next sem timetable.... there's no way I can ever go back to assist in training.... thus, I try all my means to go down on weekends and my sch holidays if there are NPCC training.....
TEAM.... the committment that I will never regret..... It is more than a committment.... I have found people who I can proudly call a TEAM and someone who I can proudly call daddy...
A TEAM who I enjoyed being with.... regardless of where I am and how long we have known each other.....
YEC.... a committment that I took up years ahead but not as long as NPCC.... but I enjoyed working in the committee.... for... there are some people who always make my day.... thou they always makes FUN of me.... while there are few who talks about me.... but well.... cos they don't know me enough.... and I don't think I need them to know me enough.... =p
Tuition is another "committment"..... but well..... if I don't commit to it.... I can't even con't my studies la.... so.... now it is a P word...
Prioritize..... I will.... but now time to slp.... good nite friends....
4 more days to go.... it will be the end of the 4 weeks attachement.
Soon as you can say but I feel that I am performing under my expectations... not sure it is under my supervisor expectations too.... but then.... he said so far so good...
But maybe like what daddy said.... I am a pefectionist.... and it really bothers me when I can't perform up to mine and others expectations.... my grade for my previous CE was B+.... I think I would be glad if I can just get a D now....
Though the saying goes,
Today, marks the 1 yr anniversay of the return of OEPians.....
Photo of yester-year at the airport......
Yesterday was the day that I've been waiting for...... xMas Dinner at Daddy Sanath's place aka home coming by Daddy Sanath.

Today, everybody makes my day!!!
First, it was daddy sanath..... thanks for the SMSes.... and the encouraging words la..... it suppose to be a just a morning sms... but ended up few SMSes... but thanks really....
Next, was one of my clients...... one of the OTAs was doing stretching for him... but he was screaming.... and say he would punch him etc.... LOLz... then my friend went over and ask him if he wanted him to stretch for him.... he say don't want...... but when my friend asked if he wants me to do stretching for him... he said yes..... haha.... so i did la...... he didn't scream at all sia.... he just endured through..... his smiles are so nice and cute too......
Next, another client of mine said that she prefered me than her volunteer..... lolz.... and she said "die" when the volunteer reached there.... ;p
Before lunch, I saw another client of mine who said he was not coming cos he had medical check-up.... but he came after his check-up and his maid said he wanted to come..... ;p
Then, there was this client who promised me that he will do the exercise at home.... he said because of me.... so sweet rite?? LOLz.....
Then, was my friend's client.... when I say "hello" to him.... he said "hello" back and smile.....
my friend was like....... cos he nv smile to him...haha.... then when my friend ask me to say bye to this client, the client replied back and smile..... he was like...... keke.....
Thanks guys for making my day!!!!
Hope these will make my heart go on . . . . . .
Soon, clinicals will come to an end.....
At this point of time, I am starting to question myself
" Is this course really for me?"
" Do I like this course or I like volunteering?"
Things that happened yesterday, added on to this feelings of uncertainty..... and I guess it will and has affected me.....
6 more days to go.....
WIll my heart go on?
Dedication from Theresa......
doggie - When I got to know you back in Dec 2002, I was fearful of you coz you were my CII. And I must tell you, you looked really fierce?! Hahas~
When I saw you again during OEP, I was like "Oh shit! My CII is here!" After so many trials and tribulations, err I mean HQ events, our friendship flourished. During OEP, you've proven yourself to be a very capable Finance OIC.
To me, you are so much more. You're a mentor, working partner, friend, companion, fellow OEPian and now test-tube sister =D Muahahas~ I'm so glad I gotta work with you again this year for MegaCamp! Albeit OEP concluded, we have never drifted apart.
I hope we'll remain this close for the many more years to come =) Thank you for being such a great listener and advisor and may you have a fulfilling and exciting adulthood ahead =)
Hey.... I was like having slight headache and don't feel like doing anything untill Daddy called!!!!
Lol....
thanks for the call ya..... you guys enjoy the rope course!!
In other news, today, the clients reminded me of my Dad(flesh and blood one la)... it reminded me how old my dad is now....my dad is already 61 this year!!! I thanked god for his health..... and this reminds me how much quality time I actually spend with my dad nowadays.....
Ponder..... Ponder.....
Dedicated to Daddy Sanath and Test tube babies of Sanath Marc Ee Yu Shou Liang! LOL
I was talking to my supervisor when my phone vibrated - SMS.
I hope guessed it was Daddy.......
I didn't check it immediately 'cause not very nice mah....
Then, it vibrated again - call.
It was "Sanath Daddy".
Again, I didn't pick up. But when my sup was talking to someone, I took a peek at my phone. Just as I guess, I was Sanath daddy......
I called back and he offered to give me a lift home!!!!
Went to nursery to walk walk with daddy, mummy and Jeremy......
Thanks for the ride ya daddy..... ;p
It was so great to see you guys, esp after a long day of work.....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Birthday wishes:
Time to bathe and get back to do my preparation for my attachment tommorrow.....
Take care and will update you guys soon.
Thanks Hamster, Joce and Xiaofen lao shi for turning up.....
Really have a great time thinking what we did at this point of time 1 year ago....
Still remembering that xF has to ask yR to help her zip her sleeping bag...... hamster and me with kl, having beside the stove;under the stars talk..... with orchestra in the middle of the night; including me...... and the Sister Act dunno how many episodes..... about friendship....
Not forgetting that I used chopper to cut a cake!!! and "red marker egg" for birthday.....
Below are the photos that I have taken on my 20th birthday..... in China.... my friends were trying to slaughter the chicken for me.....
(Please note that the below pictures may be gross and the writer will not bear any responsible for any nightmare/s caused on the reader.)
Clincals were overwhelming. There is no time for us me to think and reflect what I have just done/what has been taught, etc.
Once I reached home, I will be super TIRED to do anything.......
No doubt I enjoy the clinicals very much..... It is very enriching...... the clients are all very friendly. Due to confidentiality, I am not gonna to mention anything. They are really really nice people.....
But I guess things will be better once I get used to what is common and what to observe.
Just like drill..... the mistakes are easy spotted.... it is because we know what to observe.... but all these come with experiences....... but I will be able to know what to observe aft this attachments.....
What I felt the most stressful thing is that I am place with someone who has better grasp of the knowledge (no offence) and skills than I do..... thus the supervisor is able to compare us..... but then.... haiz......
We shall see then....
Today marks the 1 month anniversay TEAM!
The day, 07 Novemeber 2005, it marks the start of our true friendship. The start of BIG Family, with test tube babies who are apart from each other of 7 months......
It is amazing how we became closer from strangers to friends...... from strangers who we don't talk much to friends who we can joke about anything, anywhere. And most of the time... erm.... R21?? lolz....
The strange thing is that, though it is 1 month anniversay, it feels like it like a year? The strong bond that we have build have surpassed some of the bonds that I have with my other friends.
Can anyone remembers the first time that we met? That was the first time I met the guys - Keigo, Jeremy and Simon. I still remember that Jeremy was sitting on my left, followed by Rid, Simon, Keigo, Murni, Theresa and Daddy..... That day I just finished 1 of my papers..... Theresa drove me there.... thanks for the ride! Keigo and Simon seems to be very quiet that day and I thought that Keigo wasn't local because of his name.
The next time was at Starbucks. After daddy left, we talked abit more but still, don't really know each other. Even up to the day we met outside PLMGS.
The care and concern we had for one another is genuine. Something that comes from the heart. Just like the day daddy fell.... all of us are worried for him....
Daddy, just like him, perserve on to motivate the TEAM, endure the pain and yet crack jokes to lighten the atmosphere. AGAIN, try another trust fall, to gain confidence of the people. Daddy Sanath, a very motivational person.
Keigo and Simon, though they had little camp experiences, they did very well to motivate and cheer their teams on. Bonded well with the team as well.
Jeremy, a guy who can make his chest moves and is very proud of it! A guy who wants to do alot of things.... a guy with ambitions......
Murni, someone who I knew before the MegaCamp. Someone who I have not work with for a long long time. I believe she opens up more when she knows the person better. Just like me! Need to warm up to the person/people first.
Theresa aka hamster, someone who I already knew...... OEPian. She will do her best but well, it is okay if the results didn't turn out as well.... so long we RECOVER (from daddy). Our relationship is becoming complicated. From OEPian to hamster and doggie to now..... TEST TUBE BABIES. All thanks to Daddy Sanath! = )
How strange can it be? A 4 days 3 nights camp can totally change the life story of the 8 young people, different personalities, different background and different thinking BUT with the SAME OBJECTIVES.
Thanks Keigo, Jeremy and Theresa for the company to Beach Rd.
I believe we got even closer after the INTENSIVE MSNing after the return from Bintan. Not forgetting the Sentosa gathering where all of you wanted to make me STRIP!
And thanks J,K and S for the Steamboat dinner too.....
Thanks Daddy for the dinner that evening, at indo Restrauant. It must have burn a hole in your pocket!
Not forgetting that night of my annual camp daddy send over supper.... I was so touched!
All these concludes this statement:"A friend in camp, is a friend for life."
Hope that our friendship will remain..... becoming stronger each time..... just like the Link that we made at boat quay. The bond that nobody can break, except by ourselves.
Last but not least, must thank Daddy aka boss aka Uncle Sanath, for giving me this opportunity to work in this TEAM and take part in this camp to share my experiences, inspire and influence and not forgetting for giving me an opportunity to LEARN.
Thanks daddy!
今天我开始我的这个学期的实习。。。
我的实习地方是残障人士福利协会 （Handicaps Welfare Association - HWA)。 抵达那里时， 我总有似曾相识的感觉。。。。。
原来， 在一年多前，我曾到过此地。当时，我与三五好友在此当过一天的义工。。。
今天，又重回来这里，不禁让我想起 OEPians.....
今天，很高兴的。。。。 我又碰见了她 。。。。几个月没见了。。。 她的情况好得多了。。。。
最开心的是， 我又可以学以致用了！ 我说的可是手语喔 。。。。 =）
再续。。。。。。
Been very busy lately... ...
Went to 2 activities back to back - YEC Teambuilding in MCC Ubin Resort and NAS NPCC Annual Camp 2005.
Now I shall updates on the happenings ... ...
YEC Teambuiling
I had my Teambuilding in Marina Country Club Ubin Resort. As a adventurer secretary, with another committee member of mine, B, we had some ice-breakers and teambuiling for the team.
Before the teambuilding game started, we went for jaccuzi. I was deciding to go into the jaccuzi in my shirts and shorts or erm..... Binkini? In the end... ... I decided to be in Bikini..... Cos in Ubin lesser ppl as compared to Sentosa mah.....
Next, I kicked of the teambuiling activity with Check - in (my brownie was there tooo....) . Then we played the game - Makan, movie, safari and we ended the ice-breaker with WACKO..... and well.... I had to do a forfeit for it!! Darn.... luckily only banana dance ....
Beach soccer and volleyball was the teambuilding games that we had planned..... The usual teambuiling games weren't used because I cannot be faciliator and partcipants at the same time .....
E was the most rough person in the beach soccer..... she was like playing hand ball.... pushing ppl.... grapping ppl by the arms etc..... but well..... we all had fun .....
Volleyball game was nice also..... glad that they enjoyed themselves.... and me too....
Had BBQ for dinner ... ... looks like the OLDER ppl are BBQing while the younger one just sat down and waiting to be served ... ... maybe, maybe because there are limited tongs to do the BBQing.... I decided to give them the benefit of doubt.....
Some thoughts thou.... WHY so some people think that he/she is always right?? Can't be someone younger than you be right too?? Perhaps... ... I am not just used to it ba... Cos I am always the ONE BBQing for my friends during Class BBQ.... ..... So I am sharing my experiences..... But Then.... forget it.... I still won't prevent me from sharing experiences with others.... This dinner.... caused me to have tens over mosquito bites which will itch now and then ..... Realise that I didn't eat much.... and seems like the younger ones finished up the most.... = X
Went back for planning of next year year plan...... Was sharing with the committee the activities that B and I thought of having .... Not sure if I was over-sensitive.... but I felt that someone was trying to put me down.... trying to find things that make my planning don't look well ..... or maybe trying to make himself/herself to look good.... I don't know.... this is what I feel.... or maybe it is to "troubleshoot".... But I still reserve my comments.... this incident does not and WILL NOT, make me DISHEARTED.... cos I WILL PROVE you wrong..... YOUNG AGE doesn't not mean INEXPERIENCE .....
The workplan ended at 12plus....after 4 hrs or so discussions...... and ended with another 4 hrs of crapping sessions.... which ended at 4+am..... with me still in my attire that I played the games with..... and soon... everyone went back to our rooms.... and me? bathe in the VERY early morning at 4+ and went to sleep after that.... I can't be bothered to wait for my hair to dry....
Hmm... then morning... we had nothing much.... had a few game of mahjong... then get ready to go off liao.....
After that, went to rid hse for his bday....
Reflections that I wrote when I was in Ubin:Once again, I'm back to ubin. A place where there are fond memories
with different groups of people.The boat ride to MCC Chalet passes OBS and it reminded me of the 9 days OBS Leadership Couse that I had, which is also around the same time of the year, 4 years back. Looking out to the shore, it reminded me of the experiential camp as well. OEP seems like yesterday but it is already yesteryear.
I started to miss QD Team. I do not know why. It is something that I
can't really explain. Though I knew this QD Team much more later than some
members in the committe, I seems more comfortable with the QD Team than the YEC Committee (other than I am more comfortable in wearing binkini here, but it does not concern the TEAM but the environment la...)
I was glad that the "older" ones participated actively in the games as
well....
Annual Camp 2005
I was really tired when I wake up... ... was even thinking of not going in the morning... But well, I still went.... Saw Daddy Sanath online and ask him why he was up so early but I was shutting down my comp before geeting a reply from him as I was leaving the house soon. He replied and ask me to take care in the camp!!! So sweet right?? Thank you, Daddy.... Though have been camping for years as instructors,which all these camps are nothing to us..... it is these little messages that makes our day.... it makes us feel that, though we may be garang and stuff.... we are still human.... and that we need care and concern too wor..... ;-) Daddy Sanath also offered to send us supper.... ask us to sms him if we want.... SO SWEET RIGHT??
To be frank, I wasn't actually excited for the camp. I do not really know why. When I reached unit, things seem so slow, campers moving slow..... but well... it is common la...
Left the camp at 10+, almost 11, after finished helping the NCOs to tie up the singel rope pull. In the bus, I slept through the 1hr journal which seems like 3 hrs ..... Reached school slightly after 12... and had my lunch before I started my research on my clinicals..... I was tired and don't feel like doing any research... but thanks to S, I went on to search for more stuff and ended up with 2 books with me for camp and 3 in the locker....
I also collected back some of my assignments from the lecturers..... Finally I can have my Creativity Assignment back..... After which, I went for the preparatory course for my clinicals.... it ended almost at 6 which I then headed back to NAS......
Got my dinner and a new hp battery on the way back to NAS. Reached unit around 7+. Campfire preparation.... mock campfire.....
AT 11+, Daddy Sanath called and said that he is sending supper over and ask us what we wanted.... Luppy and HX had their share too.... I was so paiseh la.... that I ask Rid to talk to him.... me shy mah.... lolz.... Though Daddy Sanath said that he would reach in an hour time, I think he took only like 1/2 hr or even less than that. Rid and I went to wait for Daddy.....
I was so touched la..... I mean even though daddy stays in tampines, he is not obliged to send us anything.... furthermore, this is not DQ camp leh.... ;-) Really.... I really appreciate it very much....
So what's for supper?? Daddy got us: 4 packets of mee goreng, 4 partas, 2 coffees and 4 teh tarik.... ;-) Forget to take photos.... if not, I will publish it here.... to share the warmth and love with all... hehe...
Had a debrief with the NCOs and then went to bath.... slept at around 3+.... was remicsing the MegaCamp with Rid... until HX felt so left out and he went into the room to sleep.
The 2nd day...... I was a little bored..... so I took lotsa brownie's photos.... some with the help of rid.....
It was until the campfire committee was preparing the firewood..... well.... I guess there were different expectations from both parties.... but anyway it was settled, isn't it?
It was drizzling and started to pour when the campfire was about to start. We had no choice but to activate our wet weather program. But after few songs...... the rain stoped and we continued with our campfire.... it was until the campfire ended that the sky started to pour again...... so I think HE read the email and sms late la... ;-)
And well.... I had to be a liar..... to rid..... cos the NCOs wanted to celebrate Yas ,John's and rid bday..... so I had to lie to him that Ms lee wanted to see us... lolz... and HE BELIEVES!!! Maybe.... I should go and take part in 明星偶像..... lol....
Things seems alittle better.... but slower towards the end la.... but everything ended out well.....
Photos to be published after I have uploaded them.....
Had our rest pretty early so compared to the day before... it was 1+..... Haha....
To the NCOs:
I am glad to see the improvements in you. Hope that all the unhappiness (if there is) have been settled and BURNT away during the campfire that night. Hope to see a better camp for the sec 1 orientation as I believes that everyone will do better after each experience. If not, we have not learnt! Take care and have a good rest!

Life is full of lots of up and downs,
And the distance feels further when you're headed for the ground,
And there is nothing more painful than to let you're feelings take you down,
It's so hard to know the way you feel inside,
When there's many thoughts and feelings that you hide,
But you might feel better if you let me walk with you by your side,
And when you need a shoulder to cry on,
When you need a friend to rely on,
When the whole world is gone,
You won't be alone, cause I'll be there,
I'll be your shoulder to cry on,
I'll be there,
I'll be a friend to rely on,
When the whole world is gone,
you won't be alone, cause I'll be there.
All of the times when everything is wrong
And you're feeling like
There's no use going on
You can't give it up
I hope you work it out and carry on
Side by side,
With you till the end
I'll always be the one to firmly hold your hand
no matter what is said or done
our love will always continue on
Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on
everyone needs a friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
you won't be alone cause I'll be there
I'll be your shoulder to cry on
I'll be there
I'll be the one you rely on
when the whole world's gone
you won't be alone
cause I'll be there!
And when the whole world is gone
You'll always have my shoulder to cry on....

If we hold on together by Diana Ross
don't lose your way
with each passing day
you've come so far
don't throw it away
live believing
dreams are for weaving
wonders are waiting to start
live your story
faith, hope & glory
hold to the truth in your heart
if we hold on together
i know our dreams will never die
dreams see us through to forever
where clouds roll by
for you and i
souls in the wind
must learn how to bend
seek out a star
hold on to the end
valley, mountain
there is a fountain
washes our tears all away
words are swaying
someone is praying
please let us come home to stay
if we hold on together
i know our dreams will never die
dreams see us through to forever
where clouds roll by
for you and i
when we are out there in the dark
we'll dream about the sun
in the dark we'll feel the light
warm our hearts, everyone
if we hold on together
i know our dreams will never die
dreams see us through to forever
as high as souls can fly
the clouds roll by
for you and i

Learn to Fly by A1
When you feel the dream is over
Feel the world is on your shoulders
And you lost the strength to carry on
Even though the walls may crumble
And you find you always stumble through
Remember never to surrender to the dark
Cuz if you turn another page
You will see that's not the way
The story has to end
And if you need to find a way back
Feel you're on the wrong track
Give it time, you'll learn to fly
Tomorrow is a new day
And you will find your own way
You'll be stronger with each day that you cry
Then you'll learn to fly
In your head, so many questions
The truth is your possession
The answer lies within your heart (within your heart)
You will see the doors are open
If you only dare to hope
And you will find a way to fight
The fears that kept you down
Cuz if you turn another page
You will see that's not the way
The story has to end
And if you need to find a way back
Feel you're on the wrong track
Give it time, you'll learn to fly
Tomorrow is a new day
And you will find your own way
You'll be stronger with each day that you cry
Then you'll learn to fly
Looking at your situation
There's so much that you can do
Now's the time to make your stand
This is just an observation
In the end it's up to you
The future's in your hands
And if you need to find a way back
Feel you're on the wrong track
Give it time, you'll learn to fly
Tomorrow is a new day
And you will find your own way
You?ll be stronger with each day that you cry
Then you'll learn to fly
Give it time
Then you'll learn to fly

At the Beginning by Richard Marx and Donna Lewis
We were strangers, starting out on a journey
Never dreaming, what we'd have to go through
Now here we are, I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you
No one told me, I was going to find you
Unexpected, what you did to my heart
When I lost hope
You were there to remind me
This is the start
* And life is a road and I wanna keep goin'
Love is a river I wanna keep flowin'
Life is a road now and forever wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I want to be standing
At the beginning with you
We were strangers, on a crazy adventure
Never dreaming, how our dreams would come true
Now here we stand, unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you
[Repeat *]
Knew there was somebody somewhere
Like you alone in the dark
Now I know my dream will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothing is going to tear us apart
[Repeat *]
Life is a road and I wanna keep goin'
Love is a river I wanna keep flowin'
Starting out on a journey
[Repeat *]
In the end I want to be standing
At the beginning
With you
It was a wonderful event...... spending a day at sentosa, especially after exams.... (thou exams were long over.... erm... attachments are coming....)
Wake up at 7.45am... didn't sleep well.... was quite excited for the "excursion" actually...
Met up with S,K,(sorry.. not SK2... lol) J and R before meeting the groups at HabourFront. We were chatting and long before we knew it, we were reaching outram, just 1 more stop to HabourFront..... Upon reaching HF, the guys went to buy bread and tuna for lunch..... thanks man....
We played volley ball, captain ball and even went down to the sea to wet ourselves.... the TEAM was also forcing me to strip into my bikini top lor...
The most "interesting" game that we played were "Monkey". The monkey that cannot catch the ball within 30 passes had to do a forfeit. And well, I was the 1st monkey, having to run around the TEAM (w/o T cos she went to 7-11) and scream like 1 mad woman.... and I chose J as the 2nd monkey.
J was the 2nd monkey of the day. His forfeit was to "Tree-dance" and to strip to show his swimming trunks. He chose M to be the 3rd monkey.
M being the 3rd moneky, she has to pose 5 pictures..... someone suggested slutty poses....
K being the 4th monkey, didn't do the forfeit cos he got the ball within dunno how many passes and the person ending up doing the forfeit is ME!!!! argh.... darn... 2nd forfeit ....
I had to run to a pole that some guys uses as their soccer goal post.... and I had to run around it 10 times..... and well... all was shot in K's camera phone. Since S hasn't been the monkey yet, he was the next.
S didn't manage to get the ball within 30 passes. Thus it was his turn for the forfeit. He had to stand on the chair and do 5 macho poses.....
Next, I think K was the monkey.... but he again, escape his turn to do his 1st forfeit. Instead, it was M. she has to run around a volleyball court, with playing playing in the court and scream like a mad person around the court.
M became the monkey the 3rd time, cannot remember when.... but she has to sit in a pool of sandy water and cry like a kid....
K's turn finally came when he failed to get the ball within the 30 passes. He had to find 3 gals and 2 guys to take photos with. Well, he found a couple but it can only be considered 1 shot. There was this time when K was posing with these 2 gals.... and I thought I took... but in the end I didn't... sorry K.. you have to find another gal... he did... lolz... and there was this gal who actually rejected taking photo with K... Haha...
T joined us long after her MIA. She too has to "perform" her forfeit. She has to look for Bagala to take photos with......
Soon, it was time for us to wash up. Well, I took photos with H and M in the changing room.... eh... few shots in Bikini.... but not meant to be published as I do not want to hold responsible for people throwing up white foams.... haha.... wait till I have more toned body... lolz...Sorry TEAM (guys) ... seems like they got hold of it already.... next time.... maybe we can go toned together too... lolz... hopefully we can get our gyms up... keke....
After that, I was supposed to go for my class chalet cum BBQ.... but due to the persuation and "charming" of the TEAM..... I went to marina south with them..... I don't deny that the TEAM were a great bunch of ppl to hang out with man.... We had great fun.... eating and being make-a-fool-out-of-the-stupid-games-in-the-world by the girls. With the light passes from here to there to there.... and games like Johnny Johnny.... which I already know... luckily.... and Around-the-world-in-eighty-days.... which I had half forgotten..... Oh... thanks to J,K and S for the treat man..... ;-)
Arcade game after dinner was fun.... I had fun finding machines with credits.... as usual...... ;-) and I managed to find 2 machines sia.... 1st one is the soccer one... and 2nd one is daytona.... lolz.... I played 2 rounds of daytona. 1st round was with K and J. And I got 1ST!!!! lolz....
2nd round was with J, K and 2 other gals and 2 stangers..... K came in 1st.... me 2nd.... J, 3rd.....
It has been a long time since I play daytona.... ;-)
Nothing much great to be mention after that..... some of my favourite photos.... thanks T for the photos....
Today, it was announced that I will hold 2 port folio in the committee - General Secretary and Adventure Secretary. For some reasons, the previous Secretary has stepped down. Since there is no one above the age or nearing the age of 21, who is suitable to be one, I was called up by the chairman about 2 weeks ago to check with me if I am okay with the additional port folio.
Well, I was cool with it, except that I not sure if I can commit fully to the role of a General Secretary i.e. I cannot be sure that I will make it for all the meetings... but I WILL TRY.... since I am one of the OLDEST people serving in this committee for the 3rd term... I must PROVE it ya?
Next, got to be busy with the set-up of the Sports and Adventure sub-group under YEC.... got to work with B, Sports Secretary. I had few activities in mind already. Just need to put it down onto paper.....
Not forgetting there is this teambuilding for YEC, where B and I have to play for teambuilding games. I thought of some beach soccer, volley ball, water captain ball etc. Teambuilding activities that need us as facilitators were excluded as it may not allowed us to bond with the team.
Mentoring program was brought in as an agenda as well. I felt that it was more of a befriender program than mentoring itself. If it is just the name, then it doesn't matter. I am just concern with the role of the so-called MENTOR plays. I am also more concern with the training of the mentor... cos I feel that recuiting mentors is fine... but I believe training must be given to these mentors, in case there are any difficult situations, these MENTORS know how to handle or knows who to approach.
I also feel that yes, there can be programs for the mentors and mentees... but I feel that it is also important for these mentees to intergrate with the community and not segregate them...
Well... all these are just some thoughts of mine...
Meanwhile I have to just wait for the top to provide us with more details.... before I contribute more of my thoughts.... cos I do not know where this is actually heading etc.
In other news, I really like the photo that we took in BINTAN.... I really like the TEAM!! Thanks boss for the pic!
I was helping out kl's mom 会馆 event. It was an eye-opener. Almost everyone was speaking in Teochew. Even the program and stuff are all in CHINESE!! Whole booklet was in chinese.... even all the titles and names..... all in Chinese....
Yeah.... Chinese... Teochew..... where all my roots are..... ;-)
Went to watch the show Just like Heaven with Hamster..... kitty suppose to join us also... but then.....
Anyway, I quite like the show. Other than it being hilarious, I believe I have learnt a thing or two.
In the show, the girl was buried in her work for like 26 hours and her life is nothing but work.
It was only when her soul left her body, she reflected how much she has missed out.
So, this lead me to think if I had lead an interesting and meaningful life.
hmmm..... let me ponder it for a few days.....
In other news, I fell down and had bruises and abrasions on my legs.... but well, I am fine.... just that my butt hurts little with all the bumping and stuff on the bicycle..... ;p
Well, as I usually do... this time no exceptions as well..... to reflect myself as an instructor....
hmm.... as usual, I have done my part my sharing my experience, teaching..... and of course hope to inspire and influence them.... not sure how much have I done so.... hope that they really learnt and put into practise....
Hope that they can pass it on ... to inspire and influence more people.......
There is so much I can do..... the rest is up to them ......
Pass it on... pass it on.... pass it, pass it, pass it on ......
All of a sudden, this holiday, I am packed with events and activities.....
Will be having a gathering with the "Taiwan Gang" on tue..... hhmm... kinda missed the times in Taiwan.....
Wed n thu..... having some events at northbrooks....
Fri..... maybe meeting up with yanning.... sorry for postponing so many times... really darn busy...
Sat...... area 9 hari raya visit...... then evening helping KL's mum at an event to ursher a MP...
then wed having megacamp outing maybe..... also having my OT0401 class chalet....
26 nov.... having my YEC teambuilding.... have to come out with sports activities.... and also activities for sports and adventure sub-grp for the discussions....
28 nov.... annual camp......
1 dec - 4 dec..... 02s25 class chalet....
Packed.... but better than bored and nothing to do..... ;-)
Just camp back from the Bintan...... It was tiring... but FANTASTIC....
At first was worried about how to motivate a group of gals.... cos it was my first time taking a ALL GALS group..... Was worried that things like, "eeeee" and "dun want la...." will all come out... But all these were just more of an excess worry than a reality....
None happened.
On the first day, we did OPEN SEA KAYAKING..... with OPEN DECK KAYAKING..... Despite it was my first time kayaking in an open deck kayak, I have to show my confidence in it... but soon I was up in the kayak... I feel that there is no much of a differece actually and I think this is much easier than that of a closed deck.... as only 1% users will capsize... haha..... and someone did... = X
We had rafting on the 1st day also.....
Little initiative were seen on the 1st day..... but things changes after the debrief....
More people were seen to lead.... taking initiative.....
I was actually very happy that on the 2nd day, the group managed to perform at the teambuilding stations.....
And archery..... I got a BULLEYES!!!! haha.... I think this was my 2nd time.... the first time was just playing few years back i think.... It was a new challenge for me....
There are too much to blog here... but I guess.... all these will keep in my memories....
Ya... the instructors have lotsa fun among ourselves, which I will remember for.... ;)
I was testing the new function - backlink..... but it doesn't seems to work..... maybe there are sth wrong with my code.... haiz....

Well, finally Biomechnical and sensorimotor and Intro to mental health is over.....
I bet you all don't believe how smoky the sports hall (especially where the OT students sat) was just now during the exam....
WHERE ARE THOSE QUESTIONS THAT WE SPOTTED???
There is no DSM-IV and MSE for intro to mental health!!!
Nor is there kine for extension of finger, claw hand and glenohumeral rythmn for Biomechnical and sensorimotor!!!
Haiz.... so trying to smoke through the paper..... Hopefully HB don't get choke while marking the paper..... with 54 scripts.... I bet his room will be darn smoky the next few days....
In other news, when I came home, I saw my Tupperware of M&M chocolates on my bed!!!! And it is opened!!! And well, it must be the doing of Girl Girl!!!! This is not the 1st time!!!! The most important thing is that, the Tupperware was in my converse bag!!! She must have bitten taken it out!!!! And the worse thing is..... I think she apparently lick the red one and didn't finish it and it was sticked to my bed and there is this red stain on my BED!!!!!! And thus, I looked like I'M the one who STAINED it!!! Get the message??? argh....
ALL the food must be out of her sight and smell.....
Can't really remember how I used to study in primary school..... or in the first place did I really study hard for an Exam? I can't recall .....
But it seems like exams getting tougher... or it is because I am getting older and my memories start to fail me?
Lesser brain cells as days go by....... as hours past and even this minute when you are reading this.... more of my brain cells are dying.... especially so this week...
Okay, just ignore me..... I guess it is just during the period of exams when I start to find excuses and blames.... and finding channels to release my stress and let me 发发牢骚。。。。
Dear Squad 2,
Improvements are seen day by day from you all but maybe I would like to ask if everyone of you have put in your best? How many of you are ready to teach your cadets once you past out from this course? MAYBE you all would like to think about it! Do you wish to regret only when the course is over that you should have done this and that?
You all are just like a rubber band. You all can stretch to your limits. I believe you can! " Nothing is impossible with a willing heart!"
You all should tressure whatever time you all have now. LEARN as much as you can. You will no longer have the chance to march and jog as a squad once you pass out from this course. You will be alone then. It will be your chance like us, to guide and inspire your NCOs and cadets, just like us, guiding you all.
"LIFE IS LIKE A ROLLER COASTER. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN IT IS UP AND TIMES WHEN IT IS DOWN. YOU CAN DREAD ABOUT THE WHOLE JOURNEY OR ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF IT! THE CHOICE IS YOURS!"
"WHAT IS BITTER TO ENDURE, MAY BE SWEET TO REMEMBER!"
ATC is just around the corner. Are you all prepared for it? Do you all have the I in the PICARD? REMEMBER, it is always good to be prepared for an opportunity than to have no opportunity to be prepared for.There's still alot for you all to learn. Even I'm still learning as well ...... End of this course is not the end of your CI Life but it's the starting!" SHIPS IN HABOUR ARE SAFE BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT SHIPS ARE BUILD
FOR!"As a CI, we should not constrain ourselves to just Drill and Campcraft. We should venture out and learn more things to teach our cadets. We should not just pass down the hard skills that NPCC cadets should have but the soft skills and moral values.Though there are improvement made, you all still have long way to learn; more room for improvements." WHAT DOESN'T KILLS YOU MAKE YOU STRONGER!"Push yourself and others. At this point of time, instructors should not be the one to tell you what to do now." Give a man a fish, he can eat for a day. TEACH A MAN TO FISH, he can eat for a lifetime."This is what I wish to see at the end of the course.(end of letter)************************************Sometimes, when I think back, I really enjoy being an CI Course Instructor, not so much for it's prestige but because I grew as a person. Though till now, I still do not know why I was chosen to be 1, back in June 2001 ......But to think about it, I have learnt alot of things that I wouldn't have learnt if wasn't given such an opportunity.
The first course (J01) was one of the most memorable course for that was the time when I had to juggle between my school work and going down to HQ for IPCs....... Still remember how past IPCs were conducted .... though there may be lotsa firing and shooting, I guess it really prepare us for the course and make us think...... There are really "lots of ups and downs"..... Still remember that there were 4 "female newbies" - namely LK,SE,M and me...... and worse till, all of us were JC students ..... I will never forget how we "bia" cab to HQ everyday after school ...... * wonder how is everyone now?*
The next memorable one is of course being D02 Squad 2 instructor...... Seeing how some trainees who do not know alot of hard skills to one at least equipped with the necessary skills to be a CI as well as seeing one who lacks the confidence to one who is able to speak and teach in front of a squad..... And to see some of them who do well as CIs and recognize by most.....
All these memories will definately stay with me for life ...... If I were to choose again, I will still choose the same path, whether it will change my life in JC from 3 yrs to 2 yrs...... Cause, the things that I have learnt and gone through as well as friends that I have made, is far more valuable that that 1 year that I have to repeat in JC.....
Anyway, the friends that I have made in my 2nd JC 1 year are those who made me really enjoy my life in JC.... cause all of you all are a wonderful bunch of people, not forgetting having such great CT......
Wait.... why am I reminiscing??? Isn't that only for elderlys?? Haha... well... sometimes is is good to look back at the fond memories..... something that helps me to move forward in my life ......
That's all folks! Me have to get back to my studies liao.... ;-)
Just revised for my self-maintenece exam...... 1/2 way more to go.......
Was revising at airport just now with S ..... saw J and J.....
Just now at the airport, I wasn't productive at all (I mean studying, nothing else).....
I was so tired.... dunno why..... fell asleep few times while trying to read the notes.....
when I came back, I slacked awhile before my dinner..... after dinner, I fell asleep at the sofa!!!!
guess it was PMS - Post meal syndrome .......
Luckily my brother came back at 11.30pm.... it was then I realised that I should have started my revision..... and well, I did after my bath..... so I revised till now..... so as a reward for me.... to blog... haha.... guess I am only productive (ya.... I mean studying.. k...) at night.... 在夜深人静的时候。。。
Well, back to the airport..... we were counting the percentage of this paper..... only to realize that the 120mins paper is only 20% of our HO module..... and that means every mark we scored, it is only 1/6 mark.......
Haiz.. what to do? got to go and sleep liao... and continue the battle later..... hopefully I can wake up on time.... been oversleeping the past few days...... just hope I don't oversleep on the exam day itself....
Night all.... take care!
Today had my first paper..... it was totally disaster.....
The CVA patient that I wrote in my essay has 3 lesions at the arteries..... I really dunno what I am writing... haiz....
My MCQs screwed up as well.... was "di-gum-ing" most of the time.....
This is the first time me so unsure of myself.... haiz... I really need to pass this in order to pass overall.... I didn't do very well in my ICA and Practical the last time either..... hopefully..... they will moderate the passing mark.....
In other news, I check my mobility practical result...... quite happy with it.... cos I got a B!!!
Something to cheer me up at the end of the day I guess.....
Finally mobility was over......
I don't think I will flunk this practical, it's a matter whether I can do well or not, which is something I am not very confident of.
But as compared to palpation practical, I think I have more confidence in mobility....
But well, I don't dare to hope for high grades, as the saying goes,
" 期望越高，失望越大。”
25 minutes practical, I took 19 minutes with a "re-do" of a station....
none of the floor-to-wheelchair-to-floor transfer came out for me.....
I have lift transfer and transfer board transfer for a C7 spinal cord patient....... and NDT transfer and from sitting to standing for a right flaccid patient......
The "patient" is really a "good" patient .....
But luckily the "C7 spinal cord patient" can extend her arms to support herself when she is falling back.... then I say, "use yr hands to support yrself okay?" Laugh....
Then I try to support her......
There was once, I can't remember which one, the "patient" feet cannot touch the floor.... and I didn't realize.... but luckily before I transfer her, I shift her out....
I think my transfer board one not very good... cos I cannot push the board to under her butt.... but still managed to push her onto the bed.... ya.... that is when she use her hands to support herself.... haiz... the bed was abit too high... thus the board was a bit too slanted for her....
But, still quite okay I think....
But things wasn't that well in the morning and the day before......
The Bottom Line"Your luck is changing -- if it's been hot, expect some setbacks. If not, get ready!"
In Detail"Monotony, habit or anything that even remotely resembles routine will be absolutely intolerable to you now -- so intolerable that you'll take chances and
risks, regardless of how iffy the odds are, just to do something new and
different. Oddly enough, it's a memory from the past -- one that reminds you of
how refreshing, exciting and spontaneous it was to do exactly what you wanted,
regardless of the aftermath -- that will most likely inspire you to do all this.
Go figure."
These 2 days horoscope seems so true.....
Taken from Friendster's horoscope:
The Bottom Line"Travel's on your mind -- when are you taking a vacation? Start
planning one now."
In Detail"Two things are motivating you right now: tending to the affairs and problems of someone you love who apparently needs instruction on the subject and planning your escape route once that's over. The escape route is what's getting you through the reality of this currently all too realistic situation, so hang onto it. If anyone knows how important it is to have an appealing carrot at the end of a stick, it's you."
Hmm... I guess it is not so much of affairs... but exams... ;-P
And well..... I'm really looking forward for a vacation!!!
If you guys didn't know, Dr William Tan helps to raise funds for the cancer patients by wheeling for 48 hours continously ..... for details, pls refer to here
If you guys had tried wheeling yourselves in a wheelchair, which most don't I'm sure...
It is very tiring to even wheel yourself for 1/2 hr continously.... what's more to say when Dr William Tan had to wheel for 48hrs continously??
It is very admirable to see him pushing his physical limits for charity .....
From here, we can see that his disability did not discourage him from doing what an abled people can do (e.g. finishing his secondary and pre-university education..... participating in sports.... doing his part in charity...)
Dr William Tan even continues on to futher his studies in Harvard and Oxford University, and became a First Class Honours degree holder in Physiology, which is something that even abled- people like us are unable to accomplish....
Dr William Tan is one with outstanging strength and perseverance, a good role model for all to follow....
For more info on Dr William Tan, pls refer to here.
Where is the life that I used to live ......
I missed the times when I go out with friends for coffees ....
I missed the times when we had gatherings .....
I missed the times when I was busy with NPCC ....
I missed the times when I was always involved in camps .....
I missed the times .......
Now,
I am always burying myself in tons and tons of assignments and projects .....
Now that exams are near, the more I missed my life .....
I shall get back my life once exams are over .....
Though it will only be a month before I starts to bury myself in school work again....
Not that I don't enjoy school, actually I do, I really do.... but sometimes it is just tiring, seeing the amount of effort and time that we put in ..... and the results is too insignificant ....
But I guess the only time when we see our efforts are all that worth it is when we are at clinicals.....
Seeing the smiles on those patients, it really makes our day and forget all our tiredness....
Guess I am really looking forward for clinicals....
But before that, I am really looking forward to meet up with my friends .....
And of course, enjoy the nature .............

在一个星期前，我与ＨＨ聊天，不知不觉谈到了对象 。。。
我想这也是成长过程的一部分吧（虽然我们也应该算已经长大了吧。可是不管你是老是少，你不也是随着时间的流失而成长，变得成熟的多。）
想起我们在学校上的创意课，我们创造出来的故事也都是环绕着男欢女爱的爱情故事。每个故事中都带有童话故事里那 ‘两个相恋的情人到最后都能忠诚卷属、开花结果’。
回到主题－《对象》。。。。
我跟ＨＨ说，我的对象必须喜欢华语、喜欢华文 。。。
这可能是因为我对华人的传统与习俗等有浓厚的兴趣吧。。。。
华文华语也是我从小学开始就有浓厚兴趣的一个科目 。。。
更何况我也不想二十四小时都用英语来沟通 。。。
华人华语 。。。

Today was last physio lecture. Dr Param was going through the last few lectures and revisions with us. He ended with some words of encouragements and he thanked us for giving him such an enjoyable time teaching us....
It is rare to hear such stuff from a male lecturer...... thou we have been hearing from other lecturers already but still, it is nice to hear from Dr Param who has been so encouraging and motivating in teaching us, not forgetting being so patience with us.....
It has been an enjoyable time attending Dr Param lectures for the last 1 yr..... Cos he will always try his best to explain to us esp. when he saw our "blur" look and being so nice and patience with us when we slept in his lectures thou we had already try our best to keep ourselves awake.....
Thanks and thanks again.....
After tuition today, I went to CC for YEC meeting that ended 1/2 hr after I reached. As usual, we went for supper. This time, a different place and me, I ordered a different drink. I always ordered teh tarik btw...... This time, I ordered MILO DINOSAUR.....
This reminded me of the suppers and the time that I had last years with OEPians..... I always remembered that I will always order milo dinosaur..... at changi village, jalan kayu..... where ever.... Time has past, things have change, have you guys?
If nothing goes wrong, I will be away to Bintan for a camp...... in nov... for 4 days....
It is something that I always look forward too......
To travel OVERSEAS...... but this time is alittle different.....
I will be paid to travel overseas..... cos I will be helping to run a camp as camp instructor....
Perhaps it will be a good time for me to do something I always like.... to travel, to camp, to teach/guide, to be paid.... ;p
It will be a good time to travel... esp. it is after my exams.... before my clinicals/attachments..... ;p

匆忙是这个城市

我抬头望着满天星
平凡的心愿闪着

你是否跟我一样

我们都好像满天星
再黑暗也不畏惧

I have found my ez-link card...... but guess where I found it??
I found it on the same bus , the same place that I lost it and it was 8 days ago....
Just as I thought there is no way I can recover it back, miracle happens.......
Today, the physio prac result was out. Just as I thought I had failed,
Miracle happens again.....
Within 2 hrs, 2 miracles happen.....
With hope and patience, miracles do happen......
To O2, I believe that miracles will happen and the little girl will get well for you to carry her and sit her on your lap once again.... ;-)
After today's Biomechnical and Sensorimotor lesson with HB, I have found out that I have Dequervain's tendinitis on my left wrist. Luckily it is still the early stage.
Advices by HB :
Well, I do not know what activity/activities causes me to have Dequervain's tendinitis, but it is due to repeatitve use of thumb and activities requiring forceful grasping coupled with ulnar deviation.
So, I concluded that it is most likely due to my SMSing with my left thumb....... and most likely is due to me carrying of heavy weight(i.e. my bag) using my left hand..... (The whole world knows that my school bag weighs a ton man.... haha)
The latter is the most probable reason, I think... but nevertheless, I will TRY not to sms with my left thumb.... and TRY not to carry heavy bag...
TRY......
HB was saying that if it get worse, then the worse case is to splint my wrist to immobilize it....
