Hi guys. Hope you all had a great weekend!
We had our usual visit on 31/03/2012. Was late for facilitation with Criss hahaha. There was a community event that day, so many seniors including Mdm Cheong were not at home. My group of 6 visited Mdm Ho and the legen-(wait for it)-dary Mr Lin, whereas the other group visited Mdm Chua and Mr Tan.
First up, we visited Mdm Ho. We helped her to get new boxes of tissues at the grocery shop nearby, as well as to help clean up her flat. After which, we made her the THE Seniors souvenir and helped her to fix her framed photo.
Buay hiao bai a bit, designed by Wynne, Criss and I! I cut out the sun and I'm very proud of it hahaha :D Hope Mdm Ho likes it :)
Fixing the photo frame.
Next up, we visited Mr Lin. During Facilitation, Mr Lin said that apparently, a group of volunteers came to his flat and cleaned up. Nonetheless we proceeded with visiting him, albeit like barging in hahaha. The flat didn't feel like it has been cleaned the previous day, there were grains of rice and dirt everywhere. That's why his house is notoriously legendary. So we got down to work and cleaned up his place, including the sink cabinet where we found a dead lizard (photo can be found on Criss' Facebook profile). Expired food was also cleared from his 'war supplies'. These war supplies included sacks of rice infested with weevils, and he gives them to the foreign workers for consumption! So during debrief, Wynne mentioned that we should not only help clean up the folks' homes, but also to educate them on how to maintain basic cleaniness.
And that sums up our visit on the 31st. Looking forward to the next one! :D
