 Day 23: February 3, 2010; Wednesday

Mas kaonti yung nag-outdoor activity that morning, according kay Snow White (hehe), choice na mismo ng ibang residents na hindi sumama sa outdoor activity, and she mentioned in particular the Most Cheerful Resident, low daw ang energy nun ngayon kaya ayaw lumabas. First time din na mag-join ng mga classmates ko sa aerobics session ng mga residents, ako kasi hindi sumali kasi masakit ulo ko nun.

For the afernoon session, we had an at therapy with Ms. Faye once again, and the residents did a wind chime. Yung art therapy na yun required a lot of materials, such as beads and other decorations na ni-request mismo ni Ms. Faye, at mga tali-tali din like nylons and mga strings. The activity turned out well, based sa mga gawa ng mga residents, they're so much into the activity so ang gaganda ng mga product ng kanilang creativity. I was assigned to a table with two female residents. Yung isa si Tinker Bell at si Cowardy Lion naman yung isa pa. The two residents were so much different. The first one did not need any encouragement because she is natural artistic. In all her artworks, she did her best. So all I did with her was to like and admire her work. :D On the other hand, yung latter resident naman ay kabaligtaran nung una, ilang beses ko kasi siya inencourage, tas i kept on giving her different materials to used para makapag-umpisa na siya, kaso she kept on refusing me. I gave up then after several tries, and was glad to find out that she did a cute wind chime. :)

Before leaving, we had a serious discussion with Sir Al about the art therapy. First was about his argument with Ms. Faye about using bottles as the base of the wind chime. Sir Al would not agree but Ms. Faye kept on insisting. I understand Sir Al that he is being preventive than be sorry after. Glass bottles are not safe naman kasi talaga to used inside. Second was about the strings and other materials na naiwan sa loob ng hall after ng session. There were so many strings. Na-speech less nga kami eh. Pero pumasok agad sa isip ko yung - "Be mindful." Natakot ako sobra dito, kasi sabi ni Sir, once na mangyari yun ule, magkakaroon kami ng demerit na minus 20 hours. Not even dirt ay dapat maiwan sa loob ng hall. Wow. T_T So kinabahan ako sobra for the following week, dapat maging  more cautious kasi kami lalo pa't marami kaming kailangan ipasok para sa program sigurado. Goodluck samin.
