Social Service Visit 2
Juz came back frm my 2nd social work visit at the Jurong Family Centre... Never knew wad is one until today. And actually I din learn much cos was falling asleep half of the time, u noe the type where u're trying ur best to stay awake while ur eyes juz cannot make it? Dat's how it is... Anw this trip din make mi feel as much for as the last one... dunno why. Hey but the main pt of the trip came AFTER the session... As in, after we're out of the place beside the road and deciding which way to go, I suddenly saw this old woman fall down on the pavement. OUCH! So me and Peizhi immediately ran there to help her up, den apparently her knuckles were bleeding quite badly la... I see already oso pain. Imagine sumone so frail and old falling down... damn scary realli. And worse still we tried to communicate wif her but both our Hokkien is half bucket water one... and for the first time in my life, I felt lyk I'm mute... it's lyk u have so much to ask her, but u juz cant go abt doing it cos there's a language barrier. Damn "xin ku" man... Anw so mi and Peizhi walked her all the way home to her doorstep la, which is lyk dunno how many blocks down the road, the opp direction where we're supposed to go. And she actually brought us up to where she stay... and the thought that first came to my mind is dat no wonder u always see old pple being conned... if both of us are conmen she's gone case lor... but well... we're nice pple. Feels so good to do a good deed man... Anw it juz suddenly make mi tink of how sad it is when u're old and staying alone... do everything alone... so sad!!! Okok... snap out of it!
Anw I juz realised I've quite alot in common wif Peizhi, diz ger I noe frm my OG la. As in, we've quite the veri similar frequency, and seems to be able to tok non-stop abt everything under the sun... realli nice person to tok to. And we're lyk equally pathetic la... she'll noe wad I mean. And I was juz tinking yesterday, why is it that we seem to lyk pple dat are not so nice to us and sumhow cant accept those who're nice to u? It's kinda lyk a "u asked for it" thing when u end up sad and everything... cos who asked u to choose the "bad" one. One of my realli good guy fren since sec sch, Vic, was helping to gimme advice on my "problem" last nite... and I really appreciate his help. As in, he dun have free incoming and when I said it's ok den I sms him and stuff and he keep saying it's really fine I can call him to tok and stuff. And altho we din cum to any good conclusion, I realli appreciate his help... he's a realli sweet fren to have. Thanx Vic! I'll see wad I can do abt it...
