SWAMI and new job responsibilities

Meet the new Public Relations Officer at SWAMI Home! Haha... yes, that would be me... I've finally gotten out of the career rut and moved on to a job that is more satisfying... plus what I am doing now also contributes to the community as what I do actually helps out the elderly who are assisted by the organisation.

For those who are not aware, SWAMI is actually Sunshine Welfare Action Mission. It is a voluntary welfare organisation that takes care of the elderly. It is also a home that can currently house up to 190 patients and also comprises of facilities such as a Dementia Day Care centre, Day Rehab centre, Rehab Therapy, and Home Help, Nursing and Medical. So for all those who wish to help out the elderly, especially those who are in major need of our help, those who have no money or no one to turn to, please do not hesitate to contact me to make a donation, be it in kind or in monetary terms, or even in manpower. As the founderof SWAMI Home says, "Service to man is service to God".

Sounds like I'm already doing my job, even when I'm "off-duty" yeah? Haha... well, just rehearsing and trying to get myself more adapted to my job...

We had a school come visit us today... learnt how to bring the visitors for a tour arnd the home too... something really quite interesting... the pupils were so adorable and so energetic... and they really did interact with the elderly... so heart-warming... suddenly i recalled how as a student then, visiting all these elderly homes and orphanages for CIP... and I can't believe that I'm the one who actually organises all these things now and in the future... haha... so amazing and so fun... kinda awkward at the beginning cos I'm still new to the place and pple and all... but I think when I actually get a better grasp arnd the home and with the job, I will really enjoy it... though it calls for a lot of unclaimable OT... haha, as in I might have to come back on Saturdays and Sundays to receive guests even when I'm not working, i think it will be really great...

Kinda overwhelmed with everything now, but i think it will get better... I'm already looking forward to things that lay ahead... ah!

Now, there's something that i've been procrastinating to complete... the book for Jeffery... haha... oppsy... will try to complete asap... am doing the final editing and read-through now... hopefully everything goes well and he likes what I've done... then I can finally get my pay! woohoo!!!

Also been thinking whether I shld go back to Country Manna to work part-time... i passed by the restaurant today when I went to buy dinner today and I saw that their poster for part-time workers was still up after so long... think it's been up there for months already.... and i thought of how i miss working there... haha... but i dunno... still considering whether i can take it...
