Visit to NTUC Eldercare...community service just the way I like it!

Today's the day. Actually it was optional for me to turn up at the gathering point, but I still went on. It's sort of a rare experience, you don't know when will the next chance come.

Simple, we got lost after making it to the first checkpoint. Well, two girls who were well-versed with the area led the way, though... It was quite an easy walk, with a few familiar sights which I took note of during the last time I walked past that was 2 months ago. Well, one year has passed, but, it seems like nothing much has changed at the day care centre,except for a couple of new faces.
There was some last minute preparation( which I did not expect), however the end product was near perfect. It was great. Instead of the planned three songs, we sang 5... except that these 5 are Chinese folksongs. basically, the runners of the show, who really made it a success were Sean and Damien. If not for them, everthing would be dull, as it was starting to get obvious as it progressed into spare time. However, I did manage to spot a few crying faces during our performance, though I was not looking at them directly. Something tells me that they are very lonely there, or that they were touched by our performances.
There was an excersie session for the elderly, which was quite fascinating to share. Damien had to think of many intriguing steps within such a short period of time. Quite the great effort he put into this. Well, at least he manged to help the facillitators bring forward an excercise session for the day.
Finall, the best part of it was that we got to interact with the old folks there(something I had been wanting to do, but din't have the courage to). It was really a time-killer! i knew many things about them, and the daily routines there. They would be sent there early in the morning, between 7.30 and 8 am, and would be picked up at 5 pm. Sometimes, they would even go on group tours! How great can that be? Well, anyway, I have to speak up more often... could start in school first. Andy, stilll did most of the talking...
Anyway, there's another test coming on tomorrow... so, I guess it's up to here then.
