Home Visits.

You know, I've always wanted to do some social work kinda thingy. But never really got the chance to.
Today, I had the chance to participate in visits to TWO charity homes in one day. ^^

[The first visit in the morning, to the Beautiful Gates Foundation]

[The second visit in the evening, to the Retirement Home]

In the morning, we headed to the home for the disabled in Petaling Jaya. And then in the evening, we headed down to the old folks' home in Kajang.
Basically, we just helped around cleaning both houses.

Due to the short time allocated for the morning visit, we could only managed to clean the house and had no time to interact with the residents there.
But they seemed to be sweet people. I saw some kids in the the living room, watching cartoons on TV. They seemed just like any other ordinary kids.
Hopefully next time around we could get to know them better. ;)

The old folks' home visit, on the other hand, started off with cleaning. The house was particularly clean, so not much cleaning was needed.
After the cleaning, it was dinner time! Vegetarian food is good, for both the kong kong por por and also us. ;)
We all sat and talked while eating. At first, I felt particular guilt to the four Malay girls who joined in our trip, as all the grandpas and grandmas in the home were Chinese. And most of them speak in Chinese too.
But then, they were really nice and didn't complain.
I only saw them talking to one grandpa who spoke in English during dinnertime. That grandpa is one really cute fella.

Well you see, after eating, we had some get-along activities.
This grandpa was singing 'Baa baa, black sheep' as he dances, social dance. Hehe.

We went back around 9pm, I think. One of reasons was that we didn't want to disturb them to rest. Also, we were running out of ideas to entertain them. Haha.

*sigh* We were already in Kajang. Yet, we didn't get to makan the Kajang satay.

Well~ I feel really contented today alright. ^^
Plus, I made some new friends. =D


p/s: Happy belated-one-day Birthday, Heng Yin! =D
I don't know if you got my message. Bet you were real busy, eh? Hehe. Glad you're okay. Hope you enjoyed the day. *winks*
