Friday, July 14, 2006today is an enriching day. haha.
took a trip down with my projectwork groupies to fufill an appointment we made, with one of the five music therapists in singapore, a month ago. took an extremely exhausting journey down to boon keng and then walked a short distance over to the
Rainbow Centre Balestier Special School. you could say it was my first time in a special school and everything was just so fascinating. only two members were allowed to sit in for a therapy session which wanchin and liting went for. so yisen and i were so bored waiting in the admin office, we decided to take a good look at the facilities and surroundings of the school. it was really an eyeopener. it's at that instant you wished you could have grown more pairs of eyes to drink in every detail. the campus was buzzing with activities and the children were making such a ruckus. each classroom is specifically allocated to different therapies - physiotherapy, vocal therapy, and the swimming pool outside was undergoing sessions of hydrotherapy. i had my camera with me, but somehow i had the sudden feeling that i was intruding on their privacy (though the therapist told us we could take photos of their facilities), so i didn't really catch anything on the cam.
the children of the school was really adorable! there was this kid who suddenly felt like he didnt want to move, just lay on the floor and adamantly refused to stand despite reprimandings and struggling attempts by his 'guardian'. it was really hilarious and we were trying our hardest not to laugh out loud at the expense of the poor distressed woman. and of course not to give her the opportunity to turn her wrath on us. LOLS. then there was other kid whom i suspect was a little hyperactive, was jumping up and down the corridor. and the cutest thing that can ever happen was his therapist was also jumping and skipping with him down the corridor. *grins* it was such a polaroid moment! haha. adorable~ each of the kids has their own unique case of disability, but i really can't help but feel the joy in their smiles. they felt so happy with life and school and their therapists.
i love them to bits! *cheers*
anyway i've got new addictions! lols. found out some really nice bands and i like to introduce them on my blog. haha. take it as some form of publicity for them! (:
ALICE NINE! *screams*
this jrock band is hot! haha. alice nine is a visual kei band - basically dressing up in lots of fanciful clothes and sometimes you swear they look like girls. but i think they are really cute. and i love their songs. lols. the favourite out of my favourites is tora! he's simply sooOo kawaii! *grins* i can't rank anyone second because it's so tough trying to decide amongst them.
songs i recommend: velvet, world end anthology, fantasy
secondly...
SHAKA LABBITS! *grins*
i don't have a photo of them, because they are more of those "listen to my music, and not look at my face" sort. it's not like they don't have photos taken and mvs made. just that most of their album covers are all pictures and graphics. their main vocalist is a girl and she's the only female in the band. her voice is rather unique though. a little rough but cute all the same. not sure why but she reminds me of tomikovan from DAI. haha. and you know what? i love their name. haha. cute one. (:
songs i recommend: x x x x x, so excited, rollie, cross the bordersand lastly is
ashley parker angel and the
red jumpsuit apparatus!
was introduced to them only a few weeks ago so i know nuts about them though. but you guys should give these two songs a try:
ashley parker angel - let me go red jumpsuit apparatus - face down.they are way beyond fabulous! ^_^
*yawns* the entry is so long again. haha. nites.
