Volunteer for the first time

This morning I went to volunteer at a childcare centre located in Tiong Bahru. It was far .....

But thinking that I have to go and start volunteer for some events, I decided to start applying some from the SGCARE.

The experience from cleaning a childcare centre was not bad I guess. The childcare centre had a total of 3 bays and I was cleaning the first bay. It was manageable for the first bay and within 2 hours, we were able to finish it. The second bay was the one that needs a lot of cleaning hahah

I met 2 new 'friends' or acquaintance, they have volunteered for about 3 to 4 times in the childcare, I was like .. woah hahah. One of them, Hetty, she was a nice person!

Apparently she went to Australia to study, no wonder she has this English accent. It's interesting to know about her background. She's 27 years old this year, so she actually went to study for early childhood, which is way different from her poly diploma. She graduated with Biotech if I'm not wrong. I wanted to change and be a social worker in future. Her experience tells me that if I really want to do it, I should just go for it. It's still consider young right, starting my career around the age of 27/28 ..

Sighh I do want to get into the Full Time degree in social work in UNISIM. But I guess I should go and volunteer as much as I should. I heard that being a social worker requires my writing skills to be good. Maybe in the meantime, I should focus on improving my writing skill before I apply for the degree programme.

Yes I should volunteer as much as I can!!

Wanting to find a contract job that work for 3 months max but there's no job that are within my residential area. I am willing to work at far distance only if I am doing a job that is related to social services. For example, I saw this job looking for youth worker, it's at east side but I am willing to try! A pity that I did not get any reply.

I received a call about a job that is within my residential area. But I think I blew my chances away of getting it when I say I am able to commit in Aug 2016. But I try to push forward saying I am able to commit from 25th July onwards, hopefully I still get the job by then. :(

If not, I try find again .. Hopefully I can get it ah!! I don't care about having to wear formal wear already. I just hope to find one job that is related to social services somehow. Oh yes, my washing machine in my house is spoilt. Now have to spend another fortune to buy a secondhand one, shag.

My mum has too many commitments in relation to money. I don't even know if I am able to save enough money for the indonesia trip or not :(

Sigh everything is money money money.

Hopefully the next time I am posting, I could have got that temp admin assistant job for the eldercare centre.
