Blood Donation

Blood Donation!

I've resumed donating blood last week after stopping for a long long time ever since I fall sick nearly every month. Guess what? The record showed my last donation there was in the year 1999. I nearly fainted. But then, I did donate at other places lah. But that was also many many years back.

I'm Gonna make sure I'm a regular Blood Donor from last week onwards!! (since I am able to walk over from my work place to make the donation, DURING office hours. :P ) Wahaha.

Neighbourhood

Today, my course ended early at Clementi. So, I decided to go to my BL place, Nap for an hour or so, then leave for meeting in church. There is a sudden surge of happiness in me as I walked back home. The familiar faces of those elderly, the familiar pavements, traffic light, staircase, bus-stops, playground... everything tt I used to be so familiar with to the extend that I did not slow down my footsteps to admire, have all became so dear to me now. Alright, these are signs of getting old... but I guess it also explains the fact tt humans will only begin to appreciate when they start to lose them. Let's not make this a way of life though. Let's Appreciate what we Have. Learn to Slow Down and Admire...

The Pavement leading to the junction and train station.... it's also the pavement tt gives me lots of spiritual enlightenment during the days tt I hv to walk to the train station as early as 6.15am. Can see abit of sunrise, peaceful pavement in the early morning. Can be very therapeutic. :)



The fitness corner. Something tt my sis and I have not utilised despite much contemplation. Exercising with elderly is really not my cup of tea.



The Staircase leading to my Block.
