me and my csc girlfriends
me and hay mahn
me and rebecca
just came back from cms camp. typical, it's tirying but meaningful though. we learnt sign language. it's kinda cool. and we visited to an elderly home. frankly, tears were welling up in my eyes when the matron talked about the elderly people in the home. anyway, that matron was like sarcastic and fierce. i wonder if she'll be at the home too when she grows old. ok, i mean, will she serve there. initially, i felt really awkward when i was at the camp. for goodness sake, i am the only local for the newcomers. half is from myanmar and the rest are from china. thankfully, i manage to get along well with them. speaking of these foreigners, on fri morning when i was going to school, there's this group of thai construction workers. an apek passed me and greeted me good morning. somehow, i was in a good mood that morning. so i smiled broadly to the apek and the thai group too. one of them approached me. he spoke to me in thai. i was like confused so i just answered i'm not a thai. he took it by surprise and apologised. haha. ok. i know somehow i do look like thai. the malay uncle in bowen even thinks so. what to do. i have the thai blood. anyway, i love myanmar dance. it makes me like feminine and gentle. haha. right. thanks to my great myamnar friends especially ryann and rebecca for teaching me in spite of my race. love the camp. really. it's worth while. i managed to practise my lab skill at the home.
at the home, i did wonder how i am going to be like when i am a nurse. it's never easy to please the patients or clients. i saw this old man kept cursing a nurse when she tried to help him. he cursed almost to everyone. and the nurse told me not to bother. i hope that being a nurse will instil a sense of passion and care for the people. i don't want to regret to take up this profession.
