just some stuff to share with all of you when i was at the dementia day care
12 things to note when dealing with a dementia patient
1. Be patient with me
My brain disease is beyong my control
2. Accept me the way I am
I still have something to offer you
3. Talk with and listen to me
I can't always answer but i do understand the tone of your voice and your interest. Because I can't remember does not mean i'm dumb.
4. Consider my feelings
I am sensitive to shame, embarrassment , to failure and uncertainity. Don't ignore me.
5. You can touch me
I'm not contagious
6. Don't hurry me
Each day I struggle to keep up and understand
7. Treat me with diginity
I'm not less of a person because I have dementia. I would do the same if our positions were reversed.
8. Be kind to me
Your kindness to me may be the highlight of my day.
9. Be with me
Pary for me. Your presence shows true compression
10. Remember my past
Remind me of my previous work, contributions and successes.
11. Remember my present
Let me do what I can do. Break down activities into steps I can handle. I can respond to encouragement
12. Remember my future
I need hope for tomorrow and joy. And serenity. Love me and your gift of love will be a blessing of light on all our lives.
and tears started to fall.

heya! finally there's some time for me to sit down and blog. actually i'm not really blogging only. i'm watching tv, cafe world and blogging. hahahaz.. tsk tsk. always multi tasking all the bo liao stuff. anyway..........
have been quite busy this week. going out quite a lot. went to malaysia on thurs with family and grandma. went to photoshoot!!! hahahaahz.. was so excited. woke up early around 8 to avoid the jam. actually there wasn't a jam cuz its a weekday. so anyway. the reason we went to malaysia for a photoshoot was beacause my mum finally graduated with a degree!!!! hee.. so after she rented her regalia and then we headed down to malaysia to take photos. in the morning we went to our usual shopping center to get our usual stuff... everytime we go JB is always the same place. so i kinda know the place pretty well. as everything is quite standard. hahahaz.. had lunch at manhattan fish market. tried something new this time. it was better than the last time. i had creamy seafood pasta. wah... the cream ah. bloody gao leh.... i eat finish one plate i already felt like vomitting.
after lunch was the photoshoot. changed into the dress i brought over and started taking photos. wah... tell you ah.. my family damn chui leh. nobody knows how to take photos!!!! my mum the smile very fake, my father face so serious, my brother always blink his eyes!! i'm the most natural one loh.... *ahem*. hahahahaz... but seriously, the photographer kept asking them to smile... ask them why they always so serious. wah kao... sibei buay tahan. sibei jia lat.
then after that went back to shop again. hahahaz.. ate jap for dinner then went back to singapore.
hope the pics turn out good. hahaz..
today is my mum's graduation! at raffles convention sia..... high class.. my bro and i woke up early for that. went there and there were soooo many ppl. kinda sian. i hate crowds. all were parents going for their child's grad.. only my bro and i going for our mum's grad. haahaz.. funny sia. anyway. my mum was the last few to go up for her cert so from the moment we sat down, my bro played his psp alllllllll they way till my mum went up. i no psp, didn't bring my ds lite. so i guai guai sat down and applauded for the graduates. -_-. after that was the reception. wah.. buffet sia.. got refill one eh.. the scones ah.... damn nice!!! weeeeet ~!
one more outing with my family. ok. not really outing. beacuse my grandma has been diagnosed with dementia, so the nurse recommended a proper day care for her. which is also known as the dementia day care center.. so my family went down to check it out. it looked more like a prison to me then a day care center... there were locked gates everywhere, nusres at every corner... although i can understand why all these measures are necessary, i just can't seem to accept all of that.. all of them are like so moody, each doing their own exercises.. i know cuz its all of 'em have dementia but still..... and another quarrel just came from her house. my uncle just doesn't understand wad is dementia.. he asked my mum to book tickets to send his not even one year old son and his wife back to vietnam! wad the hell.. just cuz of one stupid quarrel. immature idiot. i hate everything. i hate hate hate everything.
i'm so excited for the next 2 months. my schedule is soooooo packed i have no room for personal time. and its so dangerously packed that i have no room for miscalculation. hmmmm.... this sem is quite lack. i have only 1 examinable module... and the other 2 are ICA. and of course, the highest credit module, FYP. everything is going to end in feb. how fast. i'm back to square one again. not knowing wad to do, not knowing wad to look for. oh welll...... i'll talk abt it when time comes. i'm looking forward to my birthday, christmas, and year end. its the time of the year where everyone is soo happily busy doing their last bit before a new year starts.
loadz of pictures awaiting. =)

yesterday was out of the house for a total of 12 hrs. from 12 noon to 7pm, i was at tan tock seng hospital with my grandma, mother, uncle and aunt. it was my grandma's checkup. well.. she now confirm has dementia. its an illness caused by Alzheimer's disease. misconception that it is caused by old age but it ppl age 40 plus do get it. well, the common symptons are mood swings, memory loss and behavour problems. so thats wad the whole issue have been about for the past few months. anyway. yesterday the doctor wanted to see everyone in the family. so anyway, he was explaining to us all the details and stuff that we are supposed to know, then transferred us to a nurse to explain in greater detail on how to take care and wad to expect. the wait was like bloody 2 hrs plus, and we went in for only half an hour. then had to queue for the medicine, queue for another hour or so then take only 10 mins. -_-... i spent half my life waiting ...
reached home at 7 plus then i chionged out of the house to meet MY SISTERS! heeee.... was so exicted ytd. cuz finally FINALLY we're having everyone present! alright. not really everyone lah. hee... met up with bao first cuz she was early as well... and since she was starving, we ate first. then hsien came. then mich came. we wathced them eat. then fer came. then we watched her eat. then lastly kel came. we also watched her eat. so we were like watching ppl eat for like an hour? hahahz... headed to dbl 0 after that. oh yah. min joined us already by then. lets list wad we drank that night.
- 12 teqila shots (2 per pax)
- 1 jug vodka cranberry
- 1 jug vodka redbull
-4 shots of bacardi 151 (i took 2 sips; first sip burned my lips, second sip burned my throat. boo. )
after bao and mich left
- 2 graveyards
- 2 illusions
i thought the graveyard was the killer for me. left the place at 1.30, managed to find my way home.. my whole self was like infused with alcohol and because my grandma was staying with us, we changed our sleeping places. so now, i'm sleeping with my mum, and my dad's sleeping outside. the moment i opened the door, i was so afraid he will wake up from the smell. lagi jia lat, i had to bathe so i had to go through my mum. the reason why i'm so afraid is cause that time my bro smelt of cigarettes when he came home late at night, my mum was so sensitive to the smell that she woke up cuz of that. so you can imagine my fear if she woke up cuz of the smell. plus the fact that i can't really walk and navigate myself properly in the house. before bathing, i tried to induce vomitting (with success, yay) to get rid of the dizziness. i had to go to the other bathroom to do it if not my mum will wake up. the last round was how to sleep on my mum's bed without her waking up. i put extra soap on my body, gurgled with loadz of listerine and blah blah... i dunno is my mum act blur or wad.. but she nv say anything abt the smell. i'm dead sure i smelled of alcohol when i reached home.
i'm still having the dizzy spells. sigh. and i can't sleep at all. woke up at 7 when my mum woke up. then 7.30 finally concluded that i really can't sleep, i woke up to use com. now i'm giddy, sleepy but can't sleep and feel like vomitting but can't vomit. hahahahhaz..wad a good start of the day. and i have to go to school later to discuss fyp with ms ong. guess i have to kao kylie and clara. hahahahz..
and how could i forgot one oh-so-importat-but-disgusted incident? after finishing our jugs, min they all found a table near the entrance of the club. so 6 of us crowded around, just dancing and crapping to each other. suddenly came these bunch of fked up yalams and one of them told us. "are you ordering drinks? dun crowd around the table if you're not ordering drinks" then we were like, first come first serve one mah. so we just told them we're gonna buy drinks. then they hanged around our table after that. suddenly, the crew came with 8 jugs of vodka cranberry (how i know will be explained in a bit). then the yalam told him to put on our table. then of course we damn bu shuang lah. i mean, we are really gonna get drinks and the table is ours, wad right do you have to put your drinks on our table? so while the crew was still holding the drinks, this was how the conversation went
them :: "eh, share share lah".
min :: you see us girls easy bully izzit, why must choose our table? aiyah we share lah. later ppl say we selfish.
yalam :: wah. dun like that lah. ppl ask nicely rite
min :: you sure you ask nicely? you sure you ask nicely? you order your drinks and ask them to put on our table then you ask, you call this ask niely?
then they lan lan. the poor crew who was still holding the 8 jugs was just beside me then he say, "eh. can let me put first? very heavy eh. "hahahahahahahz.. poor guy.
then fer and kel came back from buying drinks and fer immediately said "wad the fuck" then fer continued quarreling with them but i couldn't hear. if not i would have written another story on that. hahahahhz... oh .. and how i know they ordered vokda cranberry? cuz fer took the chance when they're not looking then pour their drinks into our glasses. twice. hahahahahaz..
stupid ppl. seriously. fucking irritating one leh. wads wrong with them ah i seriously dunno. they are just a pain in the ass.
and one more last story. i'm living with a fraud family. irritating. my dad was asking me how this sem's results gonna be like. although i checked online already, i still always act blur. so i said dunno. then he go on saying, aiyah you ah, always go out go out.. the results how to be good? blah blah blah. then i replied wad's your expected results? then he say gpa of 3. so i say "wah! so high ah!!! cannot lah". ((although i actually obtained gap of 3 for this sem. hee hee hee... must act mah, rite)) so i dunno how the conversation followed but we finally made a bet. i say if i get 3 wad do i get. then he ask me wad i want. i say i want credit card. then he say if you get 3 i give you credit card. SO... coincidentally, the results were mailed to my house that evening. he opened up and all the drama unfolded and he say one sentence that shot me to death. "i'm talking abt cumulative gpa, not semester". HE NEVER SAY LOH. HE JUST SAY GPA 3. IRRITATING! I'M LIVING WITH A FRAUD FAMILY!!!!!!!! alright. enough kb-ing. =)
