my life.....so far...

well....much had been going on the last ending half of the week for me...and i'm just drained out of my energy by sunday and i got a little sick by then....at least i'm better now...(i've not been sick for quite awhile dy:p)

last friday, i had my training on the speach therapy for autistic children and a hands-on session with the kid. man, it's not as easy as it seems and it's not wat u think it would seem to be too... if u think speach therapy is just teaching a child how to talk by doing it in a class like way....u r totally wrong man!! it's sorta like play therapy....hahahaha....if u know wat i mean... i hv to play wit the kid in order to teach him d word. and again....but....it's not as easy as playing with a normal kid...as we need to follow structure to play wit them...ok i'll brief on autism abit..so u'll hv an idea...

autism
-kids who are perfectly normal. they can talk, play, interact at once upon a time and the next day they can change into a total stranger....they will not talk, play or even recognize their parents....
-they tend to stare into space, hv self-stimulary habits (etc. playing wit a particular toy or doing an act for hours), pileing up or lining up toys in a manner, some will even do self-injury, and the most classic is tat they will nvr hv eye-contact with anyone and the list goes on....
-they just cant play like a normal child do
-each autistic child is different from the other...some are even aggrasive..

yea tat's d basic thing bout it....so basicly, i hv to make d kid look at me, hv eye-contact, and evrytime he looks at me, i do somthing silly or play wit him to reward him for it. the moment he looks away, i stop. and try to make som noise or gusture to make him look back at me. and mind u, it's not easy. man, tat kid is so lucky to get to see me b a clown hahaha.... anyhow, i hv my fears...i'm afraid tat i cant dig anything out from him...i'm afraid i'll b a failure...i'm afraid he does'nt like me....God must really help me...coz i wan to make a diff coz i'm a christian and wanna prove tat with my God anything is possible...pray for me...i'm starting this friday...

moving on.....i hv my silly music concert on saturday and well.....it went well i gotta say....i did make a little mess in my duet(and nearly passed out)...but thk God i manage to pull myself together to finish d piece... d fun part was...A CUTE GUY TALKED TO ME!!!!! ahhhh...he's so cute....i'm like jelly-fied man!!!(faint) it's worth it la....hahaha..... (love is in d air~~~lalala~~)*for now... anyhow, yea d lousy part came where i hv to b degraded into a guy for a dance....my teacher's assistent did my hair for me and i ended up looking like Totti from Italy...u noe d football player....*so ppl say.....hahaha guess wat? i'm both pretty and handsome at the same time!!! (so sickening@.@) anyhow, i'm glad it's all over...hahaha

so sunday came and i went for d autism seminar at UM (University Malaya)...and i gotta say tat d facility there not bad la...compared to me uni(lousy)...yup...and there was when i got really sick....i was ok on the 1st half of the seminar and on the ltr half i felt like volmiting and i felt a fever coming....urgh...i nvr felt so sick in my life...and i'm sick in public....darn... wat to do...i had to bertahan until d end of the thing and head home....haha...i guess i was super tired as i had not much sleep those few days...well...at least i'm better now...
