Oh my oh my...i was like "how seh?", but tried to keep calm, i noe shes worried bout dat oso bahx, then i decided to go Lot 1 see the Fairprice open already anot so i can go buy some fruits to add on ma. Haiz, went go finally at 7.20am bahx, gosh, dat was late lo, then went to Lot 1, it isnt even open lar! Argh! Then i was like "omg omg!" coz i realli wan dis activity to go on well ma, our 1st own activity lehx. Haiya! Then went i was goin to mrt, Aileen called mi and told mi she will be late, i was sooo sooo panicky and frustrated lar, one prob after another. Calm myself down then asked Aileen to brin some fruits frm her home since she will be sUper late lo, she got potatoes so i asked her to brin dat along wif her lady's fingers. Aileen told mi somemor dat she hv to leave at around 4pm today, ARGH, i was so fed up lo, should hv told mi earlier ma, haiz, den i tink she "heard" my frustration den changed the time to 4.30pm, i hv no choice den "okok lo".

On the train was so veri jia lat lo. Msged Wan Leng to ask her if she got the total number of volunteers goin to hlp at Ren Ci(TTS) on 24/12 le ma, den she said shes in camp so Xue Peng will take care of dat. >.<>.< She replied dat lunch will giv mi the number. That will be very tough.

Finally reached Ang Mo Kio then go buy Newpaper, saw the bus 88 come liao then faster go board it. i took the most-front seat coz 1st time takin dat bus to Ren Ci ma, so scare lost sia, lol. Lucky i noe the surroundin so managed to alight at the correct stop. Walked up the overhead bridge and Ei Hong called mi dat she will be late, T.T, reali feel lyk cryin sia, in e mornin already lyk dat liaox, wah, the whole day sure die de. Reached the other end of the overhead bridge and saw Nas alone sitting at the busstop. Asked her wheres Lee Ping den she say "she maybe not comin bahx, dunno wat happened to her oso, dint hear her properly in the phone", ARHHH, Aileen and Ei Hong will be late, Lee Ping not comin, Muhaimin and Farhan hv sch tinks SO ONLY LEFT NAS AND MI LARRR!!!!!!! Realli very sad lo, not angry, but really sad, haix. T.T. Walked to Ren Ci, only the 2 of us...

Reached Ren Ci den went to the Reception to ask the lady hlp us call Jeannie. Aiyo, regrated askin her to hlp us call, like so ma fan lo, i should hv called her myself, save her some troubles too ma. Jeannie came, open e Volunteers' lounge, out our bags, Jeannie said she saw our fren so we went out to take a look. Yupx, dats Ei Hong there, lolx, she out her bag, Jeannie left us, got the key, locked the door then we went up 2nd floor to find the P.T therapist to see if they nid our hlp anot. Guessed dat we were too early bahx, they asked us to go back 15 min lata lyk dat lo. Yupx, den Aileen called mi and said shes in the "C" ward, asked her some "A" ward, she dunno so i went to look for her lo. On the way, met dat auntie on the wheelchair den wan mi to wheel her down to the canteen to buy food, after comfirmin wif her she realli can go outside food arh den brought her along to find Aileen 1st lo. Phew! Found her den i wheeled the auntie down lo. On the way oso asked the nurse if she can realli go down and buy outside food de ar, the nurse noe but nv say anitink so i presume is can de lo. Wheel her to 1st floor den to the canteen. On the way saw uncle Fred, uncle Idris and the chinese uncle whos always wif uncle Fred de, said "hi" yo them den continue goin to canteen lo. Near canteen, we saw Jeannie den she chatted wif the auntie while goin to the canteen to "ta bao" coffees too. While the auntie was wheelin herself to the stall, Jeannie told mi to check wif the nurses if the patients can reali eat outside food anot coz some patients they will ask the volunteers to brin them to buy food but they are actually not allowed de. Yupx, noted dat then went to the stall wif the auntie lo. She bought 2 packets of "Longdong" frm the Malay stall, paid the money den brought her back. Haiya! She almost got mi into trouble lo, she wan go use the lift at Blk 8 which we are not allowed to go there de but she insisted, uncle Fred hlped mi to check if the lift can use anot, in the end cant, then still got one guy come and say we are not allowed to use dat lift de, Argh, almost got mi into trouble la, im responsible for dat sia coz im wheelin her ma. Lucky notin happens, we went back Blk 8 and took lift up to her ward at "A" ward lo. We went to the auntie who cant see 1st, then the wheelchair auntie passed her one packet of “Longdong”. I was so worried lo, coz dat auntie who cant see hv the “no outside food” sign at her bed ther ma, then I faster go ask e nurse, e nurse like dun understand wat I tokin like dat den the wheelchair auntie kept sayin “dun nid ask dun nid ask” so I “bo bian” and stopped asking lo. After dat went to search for them then told them bout e auntie. Hmm, still dun feel quite rite so Nas accompany mi go ask the nurse again if the auntie who cant see can eat the “Longdong” anot, phew, the nurse said she can eat anitink lo. Wah liaox! THEN E “NO OUTSIDE FOOD” SIGN PUT THER FOR WAT DE??? Told Nas about the sign, she dun believe so brought her back to the auntie’s bed to see lo. Really hated it when ppl dun believe wat im telling is the truth. Haix.

Then went to gather wif the other two. Sheela and Jenny (P.T n O.T in-charge) for wrk to hlp out lo. So, we were told to wheel the uncles out for a scroll, YEA, finally can brin them OUT! Too bad only hv the 4 of us so we only can brin 4 uncles out, hmmm 5 actually coz Sheela oso bringin one. Yupx, got ready our uncles and we went down 1st floor and went for a walk OUTside ^^. My uncle is a, hmm, chronic sick I guess coz he has the tube tinky, but hes not bedridden, he can understand wat I says and response alittle. The walk was gd, although not a veri long walk but I tink the uncles enjoys it a lot bahx coz Sheela told mi dat they were not allowed to go out theirselves then all the staff are too busy to brin them out le so they were always inside the Ren Ci hospital, nv go outside and see see de. That was quite sad to hear dat coz they hv to always stay in the same place for such a long time (YRS!) and not allowed to see the outside, its so painful to hear dat. Told my uncle about the surrounding while I was wheeling him, im stil not sure he enjoys it anot coz when I asked him “he enjoy it anot” then he will say “no” but I cant observe dat he was looking around, seeing the tinks in the surroundin. Yupx, went back, brought some back to their beds and some to dining tables. Then we divided ourselves into 2-2, half hlp Sheela and half go hlp Jenny. Aileen and I went to hlp Sheela lo. Aiyo, hlp her cleanup her rm =.=”, diaox diaox, it was in a mess! Hahax! But really, very dusty. Moved the tinks out of the shelf den I hlped to write down wat she says (tinks she hv). Moved tinks here and there, open here and there lo. Finally clean all den ok liaox, hahax. After that we went to find the other two. They were playin throeing-ball wif the uncles and oso an auntie who were sitting on wheelchairs in a circle. =DDD Some veri gd at dat lo, but some r really tryin hard, yupx, but I was fun to see them smiling went I praise them sia, they were so happy and cute ^^. In the middle, when I was throwin e ball wif a uncle, we ended up
Chattin =.=”, haha, coz he got some qns to ask mi ma, hahax, veri friendly uncle =D. Then Ei Hong came over and asked the uncle “ wah, u nw free already ar? Jus now play wif u u say u busy, now not busy le ar?(in Hokkien)”. Haha! Then dat uncle replied “ no la, now chattin wif her ma (Hokkien)”. Haha! Dunno wat he was busy wif jux now oso, they were sittin on wheelchairs doin notin much ma, lolx. Then chat chat chat, then he says, “nvm, u go play wif others 1st (Hokkien)”, den I went to other uncles 1st coz we were all rotating ma. Heehe, After a while the in-charge says we can stopped liaox coz they were goin to wait for their dinner at the dinning rm. Yupx, brought them to their dining rm and went to hv a short break the Volunteers’ lounge, I drank 2 cups of milktea, same as Aileen, Nas drank 2 cups of coffee and Ei Hong ate her red bean bread. After dat we went up to see if they nid feedings anot for lunch. Then went up but saw all ate finish le so go find uncle Fred lo. Chatted wif him awhile and then went for lunch.

Went canteen to buy lunch after we “locked” Ei Hong in the lounge, haha, coz she wan to stay inside ma
. I bought hamburger sandwich and two “siaw mais” den went back wif Nas and Aileen to the lounge. Ate lunch, have some chats along the way lo. After dat we were kind of feeling restless but rmbed about the Fruit stamping activity dat we were goin to do, so Ei Hong took out her KNIFE and we started cutting the fruits and vegetables for stamping. =DDD I made heart-shapes on the potatoes, =DDD. Hehex. Then there was once dat we all stopped our wrk and “supervise” Aileen when she was cutting the shape out of the potato, she is the only child and seems dun really do much hsewrk so we were veri scare ahh, haha. Yaya, all focus on her while she cut the shapes. Phew, though she made some mistakes and almost destroy the potato, she made it (the potato made it, haha!). Then got all the fruits all ready, chat awhile (dunno y we all started to chat on “Merger and Separation of Singapore and Malaysia”, maybe coz we talked bout the water issues, but I oso 4gotten y liaox, lolx). Ei Hong is Malaysian so was tryin to backup for Malaysia lo, but oso agreeing to some points we said la. Haha. Like so the wat like dat, lol. Then Lee Ping called mi coz I called her in the morning to see y shes not comin today ma, den she said shes sick and hvin a fever of 39.++ degrees Celsius sia. Aiyo, den ask her got see doc not den ask her go rest ad get well soon lo. Yupx, hopefully she recovers by Monday coz her “band” will be performin in the afternoon ma.

After that brought all the stuff we need and went up 2nd floor to find Sheela. Haix, Sheela kind of angry coz I told her dat we will feed the patients for lunch but we went up late so nv feed T.T, den she say next time say wat mux do wat lo, ya, sorry, my fault la, haix. Then we went to take more stuff for the activity (poster colours, drawing blocks and brushes and paper plates) and went to the dining rm. Moved the tables and started prepare some colours on the paper plate lo. Ei Hong went around playin e piano and switchin e chls of the tv program coz she dun exactly noe wat we were tryin to do, haha, den Nas kept shoutin at her lo, haha, for fun only la. Yupx, then some went to wheel the patients to the rm and we waited there. After a while, Jeannie come to us and told us sometink lo, say wat “I hv some bad news for u, the management team tinks dat u all are doin not much hlp to us so we are putting all ur wrk at else..”..then Nas and mi was like “ huh? Omg? Izzit the lunch tink dat we nv fed e patients or wat (in our heart)” AHHHHH, then dat Jeannie burst out and said shes jux KIDDING!!!!!! Idiot la she, we were already veri depressed liaox stil come and scare out >.<, idiot idiot =XXX. Haha! Then after that got all the patients (only 4) at the table and we started the art wrk. I was wif Uncle Albert, he was really great man, he do so fast dat by e end of the session, he already did lyk 5 pieces of artworks liaox sia. Then Nas and Aileens’ uncles kept slpin halfway lo, haha, so funny, den they kept waking them up to do the artwrk. Finally, 3+pm we stopped out artwk tink, cleanup and washed up and wheel the uncles to place lo. Looked around den went to find Sheela to return her e tinks. Actually wan to jux put on her table de but lata tink beta not, coz she already quite angry wif us le ma >.< (dats wat I tink la). Finally found her and gave her e stuff and went to find uncle Fred to ask him to teach us how to play DOMINNOS. =DDD

Went back Volunteers’ lounge to keep our stuff and Aileen took her bag coz she nid to leave early then we headed down to B1 where I guessed dat he will be there wif the other uncle. Went down, =.=”, Ei Hong ran down den we took the lift, lolx, she was 1st lo, lolx, haha. Called uncle Fred den told him we were free den he went up to his bed and take e Dominos set den Nas, Ei Hong and mi went to the stone table there at the 1st floor to wait for them. After a while, they came den uncle Fred started to teach us the game and we played a set of 7 games. Its so fun and easy too =DDD. Hehex! Aiya, I was losing like hell la, though I won some games but the points I totaled up was a lot lo T.T. In the end, the winner was Nas, =D. Then we bid farewell to uncle Fred and went back to the lounge, went Reception to ask for Jeannie coz she said she wanna tok to ud after the game.

Hehex, after a while she came, then we played a set of games wif her too, she was a fast learner sia. In the end, T.T, I was losing the most lo, so ke lian sia, really isn’t my day today la, lolx. Kkx, then she told us about the small party she wanna giv us for hlpin out in Ren Ci then asked mi to check when is e day wher e Moulmein and Hougang grp all can make it lo and also she nid e list for the number of ppl hlpin out on 24/12 for X’mas party. Yupx, dat was all, and we told us dat she really scared us in the afternoon sia T.T. She told us dat she dint noe bout e “lunch tink” but she told us not to worry coz she wont blame us for dat, she will oso ask her staff not to blame us, then she say she will only blame herself for not teachin e volunteers e rite tink which makes mi more guilty and bad sia T.T.

After that we went off le. Yupx. Then I went to busstop wif Nas then Ei Hong went to another busstop to take 43. Haiyo, on the way saw Sheela walkin to the busstop oso, we were like wantin to avoid her lo coz stil veri “pai sai” for the lunch tink ma but veri difficult ar. We no choice, cross e road then was rite behind her le, so we “1 2 3, HELLO!” to her frm e back lo, lolx. Then she told us bout she actually wan leave at 5.15pm but cant find her fone so she went searchin around. She tot she cant find e fone so called to her husband to cut off the line 1st coz last time her brother lost his fone den other ppl use and call overseas then the bill came was like $400+ lo. Then wat one nurse came to return to her and kept saying “its not mi, its not mi, is a lady pass to mi de” to her coz the nurse scare Sheela will tot she steal her fone ma. Hahax,yaya. Yupx, den chat a little b4 e bus came and “bye bye” to Nas den we both board bus 88. We aren’t sittin 2gather though coz no seats oso.
