ethics assignment...

was really fretting over this assignment cos the silly lecturer left it very vague and open... moreover i feel i'm not learning alot from her! so ya... ok i shall not talk abt her... though it has been quite unhappy... but yup move on! this is a 'battle' i am not selecting to fight!

back to assignment! if there's one good thing i can think abt... it would be it has challenged me to really examine my work and where i stand! the readings i took so much time and effort to find really help! learning so much from them than from all the supposedly ethics lectures! faint!

ok so though i am still not very sure how to go abt doing the assignment... i feel more geared up after reading!!! though i am not at all eager to please the lecturer by writing a good paper... i am going to try write a good one for my sake! yup! so here i come! gambatei jass! you can do it!

so much to blog abt actually...

ah... haven't been blogging... there's actually a lot of stuff that can be blogged abt... but ah... haha i have been busy and thus lazy to blog too.. hehe...

oki first and foremost... i just got rid of a com table in my room! hehe... and make some space... but haha i still have alot of things! hehe... gonna donate my com tmr to an ex-student of mine... my ex-colleagues are doing a very meaningful project for this student... glad i can contribute a small part! hehe... using the word 'ex' seems funny... haha but yet it is true...hehe...

hmmm... did not go for clinical internship today... my first ml... hmmm... struggled a lot before i decided not to go in the end... i'm glad i made this decision... it is definitely part of self-care! i had a very bad headache last night... did not want to take panadol as i have been taking a lot lately... so tried to sleep early to make it go away... but it failed terribly... i turned and tossed in pain for an hour plus in bed... sleeping and awaking up... in the end still woke up to take panadol... the pain was then unbearable... think next time not gonna try le... will just take immediately... so due to the disturbed rest last night... i woke up feeling very tired and had a backache too... supposed to see 5 clients today... which i did not think i can pull thru... so the decided to rest... called the place quite late cos the first time i called the office was not opened yet... and when i set e alarm to wake up half and hour later... i set the alarm in pm mode! sigh... hope it would not affect my evaluation ah....

last week during therapy... cl celebrated my growth with me... though i was initially skeptical abt having to go thru weekly personal therapy... i now know it is much needed and it's definitely beneficial for me... really thank God for cl... i am now in the making of a cross-stitch for myself! haha... yup it is part of therapy... supposed to be a bday pressie for myself! haha.... i hope i can finish before my bday... progress is really slow ah! hehe.... but i am definitely falling in love with it! esp when i rem the purpose behind it!

haha yeah! there's no sch tmr! an extended rest from today... hee... this week is term break.. so strange to have term break in feb... hehe... but ah... only one day and one evening no class lah... still have internship... haha.... but ok i know... better than nothing! hehe... other than bringing the comp to the student's place... i want to start on my assignment which is due next week and also start on the cover letter for the scholarship application too... hehe... ya i finally decided to give it a try after giving up on it last year... hehe.. finally sort of got thru the online part.... now left with the hard copy sending! gambatei! yes indeed no harm trying... getting it would then be a bonus! hehe! and like crow says... if God wants me to have it... i will get it! haha... AMEN! though ah... haha... i have little faith.... oppppsss... hehe.... must have BIG FAITH! hehe....

the weeks to come gonna be packed with intense clinical internship and assignments... wow... rather scary ah... really need to gambatei! may the Lord grant me strength and wisdom!

Superwoman!

wow... though i face a mental block now... i think i have been so efficient today man... did my clinical internship... then finished my process notes during the free time... then came home and started working on my presentation till now... catching little breaks here and there... also did my documentation of images from the week's clinical work... so many things done!

but yet! there are still so many on my list! faint!

really thank God for His providence and guide throughout these times... by His grace... i have done rather well the last semester... getting distinctions and good review for most of the assignments and presentations... including the most clueless and difficult research proposal and its presentation! nevertheless there are one or two that i feel are just ok too... haha... are my lecturers too nice in their review? haha... i hope that's really my standard! by faith i claim that! hehe...

working hard for this semester... trying to take good care of myself too... so that i can care for my clients... it's such a demanding and intense role ya....

a therapist to be! haha!

hehe... what a life revelation! jass is learning good self-care! though i had very late dinner today.. and it's maggie me... haha... but once in a while ok lah...hee... yummy!

had been very busy... dashing around meeting deadlines... but i know i'm most glad doing this! esp after today! so i shall blog to remind myself when i need this encouragement again... who knows when is the next time i will fall into a pit again!

i think i have been doing well though there were few hiccups here and there... had an insightful 2-hr discussion with the professional team and my on-site sup with regards to the clinical work i'm doing with the children i am seeing... they have been very supportive... i feel appreciated and valued... also feel very blessed to be able to do my internship there... really thank God for His providence....

haha... though i blogged abt the irritating lecturer... the other lecturers of mine are good! hehe... like my clinical sup... a very insightful lady... who is able to promote growth in my clinical work... though she ask difficult questions for us to ponder and process... what she says make sense... she is encouraging too... hehe... i think i'm doing well in my process notes... haha... so self-praise hor...haha... but it's all part of me building my self-esteem! hehe!

jass feels like she is an octopus now.. need to multitask... though very very very busy and tiring at times... she's loving it at this moment! may this zest and zeal be continuous!

irritating lecturer...

i have a super irritating lecturer for one of my classes... she is one of those i will not want to talk to... who have wronged me... but i won't even bother go clear up... cos it will just waste my energy... talked to my therapist abt it... decided to ignore her... simply irritating... and to think she is a counsellor... faint...
