This is my life....

I was surfing and reading many of my friends blog, when I saw many of you are writing about " I am the gal" and " I am the boy".......

Inspired by you guys, this is mine......

I am the gal who is turning 21 and is looking back in life to reflect what have I done in the last 20 years.

I am the gal in the kindergarden class looking out of the window, looking at the others' parents outside the classroom and wondering where's mine while holding back my tears.

I am the one in kindergarden who thought that we were going some shopping centre to learn to money handling skills, only to know that we were going to the "mama" shop next to my kindergarden.

I am the one who mistaken you for stolen my scissors when I was in primary 1 because you were a problematic student which I later found out that my scissors was at home all along. Luckily I apologized and you have forgiven me. Where are you now and how have you been?

I am tha gal who was the second tallest in class at the age of 6. At the age of 20, I became the top 5 for being the shortest.

I was the one gal who was daring enough to write your name in my prefect notebook even though someone told me your dad was some "big shot" in the police force. I was primary 4 then.

I was the gal who cried when I got 99 marks for my primary 6 maths prelims. It was not tears of joy but tears of disappointment. 1 mark for careless mistakes. I think I still have the answer script somewhere in my house.

I am the sister who saw you cried in front of others for the 1st time, over a gal and then few years later, because of someone that you loved was hospitalized.

I am the gal who approached you and asked if I could be a prefect and promised I would not quit this CCA to prepare for my O level.

I am the gal who receives an excellence from you for my conduct when I was in Secondary 1.

I am the gal who saw my own result slips before given to me by my form teacher because I was the one who printed the result slips for the whole school.

I am the gal who respected you most but lost the respect for you when you failed to defend for us even when we were not in the wrong.

I am the gal who, for the first time, was so happy that I cried. It was the release of my O level results.

I am the gal who screams at the sight of dogs. Not that I am afraid of dogs but because I am too excited.

I am the gal who decided that I was not going to change into arts course, not going to drop NPCC and not going to poly, when you tell me that I was not suitable for a science course in JC, when I was too busy with CCA and when in the first place, not suitable to be in a JC. I have proven you all wrong. =P

I am the gal who decided that I am not going to get a degree and get a diploma instead.

I am the gal who wants to do alot of things but yet there is so little that I can do.

I am the gal who does dragonbating and kayaking and yet don't know how to swim.

I am the gal who wishes to love and be loved yet I fear committments and failures.

I am the gal who believes in Love at first sight and that THE ONE will appear when the time is right.

I am the gal who prefers to love than be loved.

I am the gal who is feared by your boyfriend who always make you cry.

I am the gal who promised to go to China with both of our families after our As but it never happened.

I am the gal who loves to watch romance movies but shy to let others see me cry.

I am the gal who felt that I can grow up sooner when I hear you saying that you are in your 60s and yet I am still schooling.

I am the gal who yearns for a shoulder to cry on yet I don't wish to be dependent on others.

I am the gal and this is my life.......
And it goes on...............

Few but encouraging....

I was at my unit the other day..... no... i'm not going to touch on NPCC stuff in this entry... but rather people who I have not seen for a long time.

Pardon me if I couldn't recall your name... there were few of them... at least someone who are near my era.... lolz.... I was surprised that 1 one them could actually remember my name when I can't even recall his.... nevertheless, all of them, or rather 3 of them looks familar.... I think it was becaues my unit joined their area for atc last year..... so much so about the history.... I am coming back to the topic.... few but encouraging.....

One of the 3 of them, actually heard of Occupational Therapy course... smiles..... and the other 1 volunteers in CP centre.... and I found myself preaching talking to them about OT.... I didn't preach to them la... I just got excited to tell them what I am doing in my course.... since 1 of them knows about it and the other volunteers in one of the potential place that I may be working in.....

I realised I am falling in love with you more and more......




occupational therapy.....

*gosh..... what are you people thinking?? ; ) *

月之歌

但愿人长久

明月几时有
把酒问青天
不知天上宫阙
今昔是何年
我欲乘风归去
又恐琼楼玉宇
高处不胜寒
起舞弄清影
何似在人间

转朱阁
低绮户
照无眠
不应有恨
何事长向别时圆
人有悲欢离合
月有阴晴圆
缺此事古难全
但愿人长久
千里共婵娟


月亮代表我的心

你问我爱你有多深
我爱你有几分
我的情也真
我的爱也真
月亮代表我的心
你问我爱你有多深
我爱你有几分
我的情不移
我的爱不变
月亮代表我的心
轻轻的一个吻
已经打动我的心
深深的一段情
教我思念到如今
你问我爱你有多深
我爱你有几分
你去想一想
你去看一看
月亮代表我的心

一言难尽

Why is it that nobody or so few people believe that Occupational Therapy student who is in POLY is that busy?

I'm sure that many of my classmates would agree with me, as this was mentioned few times in the causal conversations with them.

It is not that we cramp all our projects to the last minute but rather we have too many projects and presentations to handle. Some are even given to us to prepare within 2-3 weeks, which actually disrupted the datelines that we had planned for our other presentations that we were given earlier on. Some of our gatherings and outings with friends may also be disrupted.

Sometimes I feel that it is useless to explain to people that we are really busy..... cos NO one believes that... just because we are POLY students......

But nobody is aware that even a POLY student like us has MUCH more the same workload that as Uni student......

Thus, sometimes I just give up explaining that we are really busy..... and..... PLEASE DO NOT SAY the why-go-poly-after-JC.....

Maybe I shall explain it once and for all.....

I believe most of the OT student qualifies to go to an Uni.... some even went to an university but decided to take OT instead.....

FYI, courses like Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy and Radiography are only for students with A-LEVEL qualifications. So, does studying in a POLY makes us different from UNIVERSITY students just because POLY is primarily for O-LEVEL students?

Sad to say, the answer is YES. This is perhaps due to the public not knowing such courses exist in the first place, which I don't blame them. I didn't know that they exist until when I was looking for alternatives other than choosing a degree course in case I didn't get in.

Well, I didn't meant that OT was my other alternative in case I didn't get into NTU or NUS. In fact, I was offered common engineering in NTU. But after much considerations, I decided that OT was more suitable for me though I know that I have to bear the consequencs that comes along like, friends and relatives asking:

"Why you go poly after your JC education? In that case, why don't you go poly in the first place?"

"Now, that you are in poly, what are your plans after that?", etc.

Perhaps more promotions or talks should be given to such courses. Maybe, things will get better when full-time degree courses are being offered in Singapore in the future.

Talking about degree courses, if I remember correctly, HB was mentioning that Occupational Therapy are one of the most popular courses, after medicine and Physiotherapy, in one of the overseas university and that the cut of point were much higher than to enter into their law faculty. I am not trying to compare which course should have higher cut-off point but to emphasize that OTs and PTs have more recognition in other countries and that they see the importance of the professions.

Perhaps, OT is still a young profession relatively to Singapore..... hopefully things will change for the better..... of course, if our starting salary can increase.. that will be great....
;p
