1 day trip~ ^^

*17th april 2010*

==*==*
a one day trip organized by my psychology course~
==*==*

i went to perak society for the promotion of mental health.. which is also called half way? =x i not sure bt that.. sorry.. >?<
erm.. that was the 1st place we went.. it is an NGO..
we were told that.. the residents thr..
are recovered or cured n get out of the mental hospital already one..
but their family couldnt affort to take care of them..
or they got no place to head to..
den they will stay in thr..
some of them.. their daily expenses is being paid by their family one.. =]]
hmm.. they nid to take their med 3 times per day.. @@ oh my..
that's to prevent them from relapse..
basically..they look just lyk normal people..
some are not la.. but still.. most of them looks normal..
honestly.. when the person in charge was briefing us..
i was dam sleepy.. bcoz the nite b4 i din had enuf sleep.. @@
paiseh la.. but i still got try my best to listen wat she said.. haha xpp
but..
im energetic again when walking arnd to visit here n thr.. xDD
the people thr.. they were taught how to make handicrafts..
for example how to paint the clay stuff, make cloth dolls, knitting stuff.. etc etc..
den they will sell them after that..
at least they get to learn sth to earn for their living on their own ~ ^^
not bad rite??~
thr was a person.. she was paintin the clay stuff.. it was painted carefully..
n some of the clay tabung over thr were very nice too..
thus.. all the tabung-sSs were fully sapu by our coursemates~ lolz!!
RM8 each..
i lyk the little angel that ah Thye bought~
it was super beautiful! keke..
tiny & beautiful~
it was still in purely white clay.. bcoz it was not painted yet..
but nvm la.. it looks nice still~ ♥
hmm.. de only thing tat made me kinda scare was..
when i heard a person was screaming over thr..
i couldnt see whr izit.. who? or wat happen..
i just heard that.. not oni me who heard the screaming..
everyone over thr oso heard the same thing..
i was thinking.. wat would i do if it happens in front of me?
can i handle o face that in the future?
the person screamed lyk she couldnt get wat she wants..
o mayb throwing things? fatt lan za lyk tat?
i really duno.. =/
ga yao bahh to me~ and also to us~ ^^
the person in charge also told us that..
if the residents thr fight o in the state that they cant control..
den they will send the particular residents to the mental hospital..
hmm..a psychologist haf to b empathy n not sympathy..
how?? see them.. den will feel pitiful for them..
as they will be bullied out thr..
o mayb will be harmed by others..
o even bein treated unfairly..
so??.. wat shld we do? or how shld we do?.. =/

this is juz the very beginning of everyth...
be thankful for how v are now ~
as.. we are a lot 幸福 a.k.a more bahagia than them..
do not bully them! or discriminate or label them as ppl wid mental prob~
"curing is caring" is their cogan kata~
caring is sharing too btw~
so.. show some caring to them bahh~ ; )

*~*~*

the next destination that we went to is.. Salvation Army Boys Home~
it is an orphanage.. males ONLY~
the age range over thr is from 6 yrs old to upper six..
that wat i know..
hmm.. it's quite weird wid the way how we started to communicate wid them..
ice breaking session.. den dance.. den play..
well.. the most fun part was the time when all playing together luu..
all kids love to play.. haha..
except those older boys.. they seems reluctant to join in to play together.. =/
during the play time.. den oni all join together to play.. haha..
the kids played until very erm.. active? gan-jiong-ly? haha..
keep cut line to get to play.. lolz.. (kids marr~)
normal lahh~
when we young.. we oso lyk tat de bahh.. rite? xpp
keke..
most of the kids thr are chinese..
except for few of them are indians..
but they can speak Cantonese one k? haha..
"jie jie, i go drink water a while ok?" (in cantonese)
haha.. so cute~
appreciate while we are having our both parents~
the kids over thr don even haf a parents to care, to love or to scold them..

*~*~*

i wanna learn how to deal wid people better ~ ^^
wish me luck~ n wish me to be braver..
so that i dare to approach people i don know..
to help them~ under a safe condition o environment of coz.. keke..
and.. i feel that.. if we wan to help out o offers help...
we must have enuf energy and well-rested..
if not..
the helping process will become less effective..
