A Hullo from Rachel the Chew. @ 11:07 pm
hullo everyone,
it seems like ageeessss since i've last seen you guys. am really missing a11, the stonetable-ing and all!
life has been good i guess. work's fine. i was put in charge of carrying out the trash runs for about a week or so and things got pretty messy... i split leftover coffee and chrysanthemum tea all over myself in the process. fortunately, the lao ban niang is terribly fond of me (HAHA) and got me off the rubbish collection job now that she's back from the US. basically, for $5/hour (exploitation of labour i tell you!) i do shelving, packing and ...most recently, some data entry, entering the particulars of members into some kinda system. i think the latter's going to get me really myopic by the time i'm done with it. pretty brainless stuff i guess but they pay me for it and i can't complain =)
apart from work, i've been doing lots of preparation for a trip to africa i'm going on in august with lots of RJ people (surprisingly friendly..haha), two HC girls, an ACJC girl and an international school teacher. basically, we're going to orphanages and elementary schools in Botswana to give them relief aid (clothes donated by marks and spencers, blankets from SIA etc), do mass feeding (preparing kaya toast and pasta) and play with the kids (we've been learning puppetry and we're gonna put up a puppet show and all!). yuppp, AND we're still looking for more DONATIONS! haha. soo if you wanna donate a little something to make the lives of these children a little better, do let me know!
welll..that's about it for now!
