Institute of Mental Health Visit

Institute of Mental Health Visit

Met the guys at 10am at JEC. We played LAN then ate at MAC before heading to AngMoKio. Waited a while for the rest to grab a bite before taking a bus to IMH.

We reached this huge compound which was pretty lively considering it is a mental hospital. We had a briefing which initially made me abit scared of whats gonna come next. But actually those patients were literally like little kids. Everyone took a while before settling down in the female ward but the atmosphere was still tense during the magic tricks segment, but luckily the singing session was very successful. I enjoy singing at the top of my voice as if it was I was alone in my house lols.

Then we proceeded to the male ward which was much more 'dull'. The first event that happened shocked a few ppl but yeah they manage to get over it. We sang again lol, this time even more heartily. Gave out the tibits we brought along and although they just snatched from my hands, I am sure they appreciated it.

Finally we had a de-brief and went off. This has had to be the most self-fulfiling CIP I ever did. Also, this was the most united class effort in 2 years. To those who could not make it for the CIP due to other commitments, you all are an important part of 4H, please do not feel ostracized if not it will just defeat the whole purpose.
