Hi all ...

Christmas CAROLing...
Today, we went to hospice(HCA) for Christmas caroling. We were early by about half an hour and I heard the sound of playing MAHJONG, the clients are playing. I was a bit tempted as I very long never play Mahjong already. After that, we used the extra time to brief on what are we doing, introduction and discussion. Finally, we went in and each of us has to sit beside/ in front of clients so as to interact with them. I entertained 2 of them because there was not enough of us(students) initially but later 1 of the students do not have a client and so she help to entertain one for me and so I only concentrate on my particular client. Without any notice, the girl who is supposed to help me entertain one of the 2 clients went off to find her friend and both of them together looked after only 1 client. I was a bit slow because when the seesion was going to end then I started to wonder why the client has no student sitting beside her. Then never mind, I just try to talk and interact with both of them. Firstly, we played the same thing as yesterday, the "MUSICAL BALL" and my client has the ball in her hand when the music stop so both of us had to go out and sing. After that, we sang 3 Christmas songs (Caroling) to them and followed with games. However, many of the clients did not understand the games and so some of them were bored. Besides that, riddles were asked and now even I also don't understand a few of them, moreover the clients. Then, we continued with Caroling, 3 more Christmas songs sang and we ended off with MERRY CHRISTMAS. Nevertheless, we gave them a token and our teachers were being sabotage us to sing a Christmas song too. =) Finally, we thanked them and shake hands with them, biding farewell.

We were given a debrief and we wrote our reflections and gave it to our teacher. Our teacher(Miss Woo) told us that she hopes everyone of us will become a community leader at the end of 2 years in CCC, not just the EXCOS. She hopes all of us, each and everyone of us, to be able to take the intiative and step forward to lead in the near future. Actually, this Christmas Caroling, we (CCC) do not have any leader(EXCO) with us and so the whole event were lead by the choir members and all of us (CCC members) just tagged along. So, our teacher observed that and so she said that. Moreover, she also said that we are not open enough to interact with the people,SHY. Anyway, we did ENJOYED Ourselves!!! and so did the CLIENTS!!! =D
