A cake of mud

Monday, May 30, 2005


I was a cake of mud
Dirty, ugly, rejected
the world detest me
the people mock me
others ridicule me

I feel so sad, so broken inside

I just long for someone to love me
Just the way i am
I was ugly but i was kind
Why can't people understand

I feel so sad, so broken inside

I was a cake of mud
and i cried and cried all night

I feel so sad, so broken inside

Can anybody hear my cry?

I saw a hand from afar
Lifted and picked me up
With mighty hands and a gentle voice
Called me to his side

My tears were wiped away
My pain was eased
My body was cleansed and nourised
Till the dirt fade away

Then i saw something beautiful
Living within me
It was love
and a new me

I was told i was beautiful
If i had looked within
I was precious
and meant all the world to him

He overlooked the exterior
and looked inside of me
and he found the beauty within

the world is mean to me
Yet he believed in me

I was a cake of mud
Which was never meant to be
Yet i was beautiful to the Creator and Saviour,
Of the world.











kids...

comp is finally fixed.. after so long.
now i don't have to run the risk of being found out using the office comp for personal use. phew.

played with the nursery kids last thurs and it was such a fun yet heartwarming experience. To hear the kids all shouting 'teacher' all at one go was pretty overwhelming but at the same time so rewarding! there was this kid who kept following me around and sitting on my lap! and there was this kid who told me about his OWN 'fish tank' story when all i see is an assembly of linkages made of plastic! haha.. so hilarious. and this kid who told me that he was 3 yrs old while showing me 4 fingers!!!

haha.. kids.
will always be kids.


Every little thing is BIG thing to them.

How simple
How sweet....








help or don't help?



don't generalise capabilities, limit help
should generalise help, limit capabilities








P.Ubin Outing

Tuesday, May 24, 2005


23/5/05

Uneventful day.

Went cycling at P.Ubin and Xun Yu fell off her bike. Her head bled and she couldn't move. I freaked out. I didn't know or rather all 4 of us didn't know what to do! Thank God there was a nurse who helped to direct the traffic and stop the bleeding. And the rest of the passer-by who helped to call the police and contacted the local authorities. Man, and i called the ambulance... to think i dunno what no. to call initially!! 995 dear! ya.. it was a dramatic and tramatic moment. Thank God too that the ploice and ambulance were swift and coordinated. After about half an hour, we were on our way to Changi General Hospital.

Now she is fine.

For us, we're still recovering from some sort of shock or bike or terrain fear.

Thank God..








Placement

Tuesday, May 17, 2005


the past week of attachment has been quite confusing. it's like running in all directions without knowing where you are running to. a lot of adjusting, adapting and reinforcing. Placement is just the start of real work in a social work profession. Be ready to disregard your identity as a student and put on the coat of the profession, for you are now part of what people call social workers.

don't sound qing song right? yes it isn't lah.. and being treated like a fully responsible and acountable adult is no joke k. the responsibility that comes with it is like a huge boulder that has to be balanced on both sides, you drop the boulder you die.

serious lah. but maybe wont die but you will feel like dying!

Welcome to Social Work!!!!
