visit chinese garden

just came back from geylang east home for the aged... my unit went to this home for some community service today... it was quite a show put up for practical reasons to get some award... but i guess at the end of the day, it was quite enjoyable for everyone, although we didn't do much to help them... we cleaned the place, and presented some song items... of cuz there were interesting old folks... like this man, uncle foo who's very 'garang' and young at heart... he was so passionate about singing, he sang some 民歌 with gusto, like those old time communist... then there was this other old man who kept saying that he wanted to go swimming on the 12th floor and i didn't unstnd what he meant until he say that he wanted to dive down... and he kept asking us if it was a good idea... wertz... and there was this 95 yr old lady who is still very strong and does exercises everyday... oh my, will i be that strong in future? well, it was enjoyable listening to them, even though it was hard to connect with them some of the time... anyway, i was the photographer so i cldn't be with them for long...

we went to chinese gardens at night to watch the disney lantern displays... today was a special event organised by chinese garden to allow all the old folks home to view the displays... it was really crowded with the old and the young who brought them there... there were fireworks too and it was really beautiful... managed to get some shots of it... i really recommend you guys to visit chinese gardens with your family, it is certainly a good place to spend the mid-autumn evening with your loved ones...
