Pf - Hygiene

280609

Its the day after I got back from my sarawak trip and I go for pathfinders. I feel so committed. haha. (PS: self praise is no praise so I'm not actually praising myself :P) anyway, today we had yet another special guest of honour- Aunty Nelly! she's a nurse and she was invited today to speak on hygiene.

First we had to practice how to spell the word "HYGIENE" they're little kids ok, and its a good thing to widen their vocabulary :D

and then aunty nelly went on to explain what it meant.
basically HYGIENE=CLEANLINESS

and todays hygiene wasn't just about physical (but actually it was mostly about physical la) hygiene but clean in thoughts, words and in the heart as well.A wholesome program. I like it.

She went on to explain the reason why good personal hygiene is practiced.
1.We might spread the dirt and bacteria to others
2.It makes us and other people unhappy
3.It troubles others -ie. ppl need to take care of us when we get sick cause of dirt.

Next up, was the HOW.
1. Bathe from head to toe-washing hair properly. washing toes properly as well.
2. Wash hands properly
3. Cut your nails. be it fingers or toes (OKKKKK.....I don't cut them toe nails often :S)

Then we go into a little more detail in the HOW

HAIR - washing it properly.
Normally people just think the dirt is on the hair particles. LITTLE DO THEY KNOW! dirt and oil and sweat accumulates on the scalp where the roots of our hair is as well. So, when you shower, massage your scalp to remove all excess moisture then go on to clean your actual hair.

HOWEVER, there is one most frequent action we always take to maintain personal hygiene

WASHING THE HANDS
1. Wash before meals.
2. Wash after going to the toilet
3. Wash them when they're dirty =_=
4. Wash them for a duration of the time taken to sing the alphabet.
5. Wash them in accordance to THE SEVEN STEPS.

THE SEVEN STEPS

1. The Normal method. washing the palm of your hands.

2. The Seen-but-not-done method. washing between your fingers.

3. The Retarded method. washing the top of your palm.

4. The Never-done-before method. washing your knuckles.

5. The Never-seen-before method. washing the arms of your thumb.

6. The Cutest-ever-seen-before method. washing your fingertips/nails.

7. The Only-really-clean-people-do-this method. washing your wrists.

Attention! Beware! Alert!
Because of H1N1 virus flying around the world. We have to take great care of our hands! they are possible carriers and places where we expose ourselves to the virus. Listen carefully! they are very common things that we are unaware of!!!!

1. DO NOT TOUCH THE T-AREA OF YOUR FACE.
what is the T area? It is the area that contains your eyes, nose and mouth. These are all openings for the virus to access your inner body so......don't touch them! just incase you might have the virus in the palm of ur hand! D:

2. DO NOT COUGH/SNEEZE ON YOUR BARE HANDS.
you see, we are all prone to touching the T Area that when we cough or sneeze, germs might enter our body through those areas! so stop it! before you pass it on. ;D

Football - 3rd Day

170609

I feel like we're getting more and more advanced. First we separate TOTALLY, then we merge halfway with the experienced, then now we go STRAIGHT into a joined game? CRAZY A?! lol. anyway. Playing with them freakily experienced younger ones teaches you stuff.

1st of all, I was made goalie. AGAIN. seems to be my destiny, so be it! well, today I met Shelby, Shaeny's sister and she is such a good defender that not many balls came through the defense line. But I did manage to block some goals from entering. :)

HOWEVER, I let a few of them in as well T_T This time I feel like, when the strikers get closer, I get more nervous and I feel like the goal posts are getting further apart! Man! its scary, and one thing I realised, I get drowsy on duty. LOL. not something that is good when you're a goalie! and my reflexes need some work so.....Gotta work on it more.

I think its about time I stop being a goalie, they promoted me to a defender and Shelby takes the goalie position. :) FINALLY. something new, and so everything in this area is just new for me. How to do it, when to run, where to run, what I aim to do. I learn that ok, first, you need to keep an eye on the rest of the defenders. Walk in one line, to that requires communication and make sure there are no extremely wide gaps between each defender. NEXT. goal is to kick ball away from enemy either out of the field or into an open space where our allies can get it. EASY? NOT REALLY. as I said before. My reflexes are slow! and so ok, at first I see the ball coming to me, I stop it and I literally stand on the ball and look for people to pass it to. WHAT AM I DOING?! this is a competitive game, not a luxurious game of passing the ball! so after a few more tries, I get the hang of looking while running, anticipating the ball coming and to whom i can pass it to.

Then, after getting over that one little bit, Mr Neild said that stopping the ball and then only kicking it would reduce the amount of force I could get on the ball, so he said, try jogging a little and kicking the ball or kicking it as soon it comes wobbling to you, no need to stop it. I tried it! and it worked! He said I improved :) :) :) what to do? Being a goalie may not be my only destiny after all :P

Charity Bike Ride/ Car Boot Sale

060609

To raise funds for our Habitat for Humanity trip to Sarawak, year 12 students and our 2 wonderfully supporting teachers Mr Skinner and Mrs Clarke organized these 2 events.
There were many involved in the participation and planning of these events and they are listed below.

Job segregation:
1. Bikers
2. Food & beverages
3. Entertainment
4. Car Boot Sale committee
5. Charity Bike Ride committee
6. Food area plan
7. T shirt and Logo designing

I was involved in food and beverages.
Many weeks before the actual event, we had several CAS meetings to determine the areas we were involved in. I initially planned on doing designing the Tshirts and the logo but seeing that there were few participating in the food section (and food is VERY important for events like these!) so I joined forces with Boom and Yitong to supply the main course of everyone's meal that afternoon, Burgers and Hotdogs.

After discussion with the 2, we wanted to make them really really GOOD burgers and sell them at a high price. With various sauces, good quality patty and nice buns. However, given the advice from Mr.Skinner, it would be better to sell cheap ones without them being so complicated. Before we received advice from him, we even went out for "burger surveys" to research what combination of ingredients would make our burgers the best since we had no experience whatsoever in burger making, but alas! our research was in vain, although not to our stomachs :P

And so, we were very lucky to have Mr.Skinner standing behind our whole operation. Although we initially took the job into our hands, it seemed that conducting a barbeque required more than just amateur skills. Mr Skinner even called in professional help! and....oh no, i forgot his name.....but i rmb his face :) Basically, everything we needed was supplied by the school because it would be easier to buy in bulk using the school's name, it would be cheaper as well, lowering costs and increasing profit! (ahha mr.whittlestone! economics in application!) Here's the supplies we got from school.

School:
1. Tons of burgers.
2. Tons of sausages
3. Gas
4. Stove/ Grill thingy
5. Tons of white bread
6. Tesco Tomato Sauce
7. Tesco Chili Sauce
8. Oil (or was this from skinner or bbq man?????)
9. Paper tissue

Mr. Skinner:
1. BARBEQUE EQUIPMENT! - 200 USD. however, saw sign on it saying =made in china= skeptical? YES

Boom:
1. Paper Plate
2. Mustard

Without Boom's mustard, i wouldn't have been able to see the beauty of its taste. It actually tastes good with tomato sauce. :) everyone else loved it too! SEE. mustard is quite good boom.

One vital ingredient though, was ONIONS.

everyone contributed to this by chopping up 6 onions at home and bringing it to school. I brought 1.5kg of chopped onion. (equivalent to the weight of the cake we are going to get for Ms. Yin on the last day of school) and i'm thinking....it helped ALOT. many didn't bring 6 onions. Phumi & Bindiya even brought onions without chopping them. WHAT?!

Anyway, in the beginning, we were lazing around. LITERALLY with too many cooked dogs and burgers and onions. Hmmm....stacks of bread sandwiched between tissue too. Our first buyers were actually ourselves so, we got off to a slow start. Lucky, ppl get hungry and desperate and slow, with the slow trickle of people, came a slightly faster trickle of sellings.

We got bored with the low business and so I suggested running around with the enticing sign i printed and get customers to us! it worked a little. Got deliveries for Mr & Mrs Walton (and he loved it btw!) and one little girl. And more of course. running around the whole place i bumped into wouter who was playing the guitar in a repeated arrangement of chords. I sang a few really cheesy lines about "you know what is good~ and that is our food~~" lame but, SOMEHOW! it got us customers!

Uh oh, thn i realised just how busy Boom was manning the stall. Rushing to his aid! asking ppl what they want, repeatedly asking "do you want onions with that?" and getting change. It was all in good fun. :) Then disaster struck! we got so busy, the onions ran out! I sacrificed my dry eyes to cut a few that ppl brought UNCUT. but they brought really small ones. They were puny! and the bbq man's wife even commented on how puny they were! tsk tsk tsk~ but i still went to cut em anyway. Got the chopping board and knife and some really big yellow onions from Shaeny,gen and iyune's stall. They borrowed some from us when they needed and now we borrow from them. cooperation at its best!

Hmmm...what else? All in all, it was a great day. I learned that barbeque-ing you have one stove for frying, one for keeping it warm, meaning one has good big fire, one small comforting fire. I learned that you have to look at for your team member at the stall when they need help because, standing alone manning a stall is tough! sorry boom cause i left him alone to do some advertising for a while, but he's so good and managed well. Being polite always helps you get more customers. Managing a stall you need to have a container for money. You have to be proactive in getting those customers! bring yourself to them! don't expect them to come to you! Overall, It was a great experience. haven't done stuff like this in a while. earned RM630

PS : It was so busy I even didn't have time to take more pictures!

pf = DENTISTRY? - a confirmed never

140609

Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahhaha. outing with helping hands to the LOOI ORTHODONTIST CLINIC. Dr. Looi is a good man. :P

Firstly, we get a look of what braces are. tadaa. they are shown on a girl. I have had braces before AT Looi so this surrounding isn't unfamiliar to me.

Dr. Looi was a tad busy so he hands us over to his senior assistant and she runs us by all the things we need to know about being a dentist. THE CHAIR. THE EQUIPMENT.

We have:
1. The chair - come with 3 funky things. water sprayer, saliva sucker and one more which i forgot.
2. The equipment - too many. the pic shows it.
3. The types of brackets - metal, colourful, transparent, lingual (inner for SUPER vain-o ppl)
4. The SWAT team - Straight White Attractive Teeth Team.
5. The Wisdom tooth. - pic pic pic
6. The before and after - is always prettier after.

Ruth was so scared about this cause her teeth was pretty bad. haha. She's so cute and we tried to calm her down so many times. But I learnt today on giving. There was one patient who actually allowed us to check out her mouth. her lingual braces on the inside that u'll c in the pic i will post tmr.generous. hmmmmm

:D i got a nice little statue of perfect teeth. a goal to achieve?
