"I'VE GOT ONE NERVE LEFT AND YOU'RE GETTING ON IT!"
Today was a great mind-opener. 03S14 together with 03S54 went for a home visit to the Red Cross Home for the Disabled. The patients there were really a pitiful sight. A few girls from S54 broke down once they stepped into the children's ward. Couldn't blame them. I for once felt like crying. Most of them were born with deformed bodies. Others just had their limbs shrinking on them as age catches up. I fed one female patient and gave her a leg massage. Though I had absolutely no idea what she was babbling about, her smile was priceless.
Me and Stace wheeled some patients and played ball with one elderly patient. She was quite energetic, for someone in her fifties. Me and Stace were burnt out, but she still had energy to play. Some of the male patients were scary. They just start screaming out of the blue at God-knows-what, which, at the end of the day made me feel thankful for my limbs, my sanity and my family. sigh. Stuff like these really gets me. Why can't the world be a perfect place, where everyone's equal? Sure, there'll be the less fortunate, but must they be deprived of the most basic necessities? I wish i knew but I don't. I'm sure God knows better. I shan't make the slightest attempt to challenge that.
Aside from the home visit, work is catching up on me. I've got loads to do, but so little time. grrrr. Yup. and people are still getting on my nerves. Like what i told aizat, its ok that people piss me off, i can endure, but to a point where people piss my friends off, it frustrates me. This is bad. I can't get by a day without getting pissed off at people after hearing what they did. Grrrrr. I want them off my planet!
