Day 35 || Christmas Eve

Woo could not imagine 1 month has gone past so quick. 18th January 2010 is soon approaching and I will finish my internship here.

First time celebrating Christmas and New Year in a country beside Indonesia XD. Felt a bit blank somehow without my parents. Good thing my sister is coming here to accompany me.

Tomorrow (25th December 2009) I was assigned to host an event for the elder of Kangle. It was really difficult to come up with any activities as my earlier suggestions was brought to rubbish dump as they were seen as inaccurate.

The musical chair ? Too quick, requires fast and agile movement
Card making ? Too detailed, requires too much hours to cut and paste
Singing a Christmas song in English ? Too difficult for non-english speakers and non-chinese speakers
Dancing Christmas dance ? Have no idea on this :X ... what kind of Christmas dance are there? I do not think I have ever seen one

And finally I made a decision to do
.. . ...

.....
Christmas Tree Decoration.

At first I wanted to allow the elders to sew and cut the model themselves. However after heavy discussions and agreements, I had to change my earlier plan (which I felt was originally good as 2 hours could be wasted on sewing and cutting,but too bad). In just 3 days I would have to sew every model that I had think of. Somehow .. all the skills that my mother showed me when I was young become in use here. Cooking, cleaning, sewing .. everything a lady need to know.

Back in Australia, I was comfortable of doing things alone as such asking for helps or request was a little bit strange for me. Thankfully, my colleagues offered to help me in sewing a bunch of them without me asking. Thanks to them, my earlier bulk responsibilities become so much lighter. XD the teamwork spirit....teehee

I wonder how they turns out tomorrow. Hopefully they turns out good tomorrow. *Finger cross*
