helped out at the World Mental Health Day celebrations ydae, for IMH, at bugis, Cheng Yan Place. :) it was an afternoon event, n there were several booths from diff organisations. a lot of people shopping at bugis st ydae, bcos it was sat! all e pictures are wif my gp mate, so don't hav thm wif me.

although e reason for our helping out was bcos we wanted to make it part of our project, i felt quite touched listening to people who are passionate abt helping n making a difference in others' lives. i gt to knw Emily, who's a student in nyp. occupational therapy. she studied n worked in an accounting-related profession for a number of yrs, found it gave her no satisfaction, thus decided to change her career path & do what she enjoys-'making a difference in people's lives' as quoted from her.

i think that stigma still exists towards the mentally ill, people think they are dangerous, violent etc. but that's only if patients do not seek treatment! undergoing treatment, they are no more crazy than we ourselves are. even if they have recovered, but prospective employers get to knw abt their past medical condition, that will cause thm to lose out to others. i think its very unfair to them, that they're being seen as less of a whole, when they are not.

took a picture wif lin peifen, dj from 933 n MC for e street festival. :) she's pretty right? haha. so strange to see n talk to her, when in e past only hear her voice over e radio.


parted with e friends i gt to know from IMH in e evening, n headed home. :) got lots of uncompleted things to do! jiayou everyone!
