Duration: 8 hours

Today, we went to MPFSC to guide the senior citizens during the computer lesson. The first lesson was taught by Seow Hong, a staff of MPFSC. During the lesson, the senior citizens learnt how to change the wallpaper of the computer, create folders, type in Chinese, change the fonts, sizes and colours of words, save the file and surf the internet. During the lesson, there are also breaks. These breaks are meant for the senior citizens to eat or to learn how to play computer games. One of the games they learnt was solitaire. At the end of the lesson, they were given a test which most of them pass. They were also given a survey form to judge their own performance and our performance as their guides.

After lunch, we continued with the second lesson with another group of senior citizens. This time, it was conducted by another instructor, Yah Yee. The second lesson was about the same as the first lesson. They were also given time to explore the various uses of the computer. Overall, I believe that the lessons are successful as the senior citizens are more familiar with the usage of the computer.

Date: 1/12/08
Duration: 2.5 hours

Today, we had a meeting at MPFSC regarding a Christmas block party to be held at Block 6 of Marine Terrace on 10 December. This party is meant to thank the residents living there for their support of MPFSC which has been running for 6 years. In this meeting, we discuss about our job allocation. Different people will be allocated to different jobs such as food I/C, decoration I/C, performance I/C and games I/C. Due to vast range of activities, most of us got double posting.

Overall, we managed to meet the objectives of this meeting as we managed to allocate the various jobs required among ourselves.

Date:10/12/08
Duration: 6 hours

Today, we met up at Blk 6, Marine Terrace to prepare for the Christmas block party which would start at 6 p.m. The preparation included arranging chairs, decorating the place with balloons, streamers, Christmas pictures and setting up the booths required for the games later on.

Soon, the elderly residents arrived for registration. Some of them were active and they participated in the booth games while waiting for the event to start. The event started at around 6.45 p.m. and they played ice-breakers to know their neighbours better. After that, they a played a game which involved them to volunteer themselves and if they won they would get a prize.

After the games, we had a caroling session which an elderly resident volunteered to lead. We served them dinner after that and had our dinner as well. We also had a debriefing for the event today. Overall, I think that there is still room for improvement for almost everything in the event and we should strive to do better for the next event.

Date: 18/12/08
Duration: 8 hours

Today, there was no teacher and we were just supposed to help the senior citizens if they have any problems with making calendars. Most of them were rather confused but some of them were able to learn quite fast and were even able to explore the PowerPoint program themselves. Overall, the senior citizens benefited from this revision as they were able to create their calendars and print them out. We even came to a situation where there was no more paper left. The senior citizens then proceed on with playing computer games and surfing the internet. At the end of the day, although we are tired, we are glad that the senior citizens were able to learn something new about the computer.

Date: 2/2/09
Duration: 2 hour

Today, we went for a meeting regarding the Chinese New Year celebrations on 7 Feb. We were briefed by Seow Hong on the things we are required to do. We will be mending 2 booths (Wii Bowling and Free Phototaking). After her briefing, we allocated the various jobs required among ourselves. Overall, the meeting was useful as everyone was clear on what they are supposed to do.

Date: 07/02/09
Duration: 8 hours

After arriving at the block, we got to work by setting up our respective game stalls ("Wii" bowling and Free Phototaking) before helping arrange the chairs for the audience. As soon as the residents reached the place, the games started. Some of us tended to the Photo booth while the others, the "Wii" bowling stall. After that was a performance by other organisations, followed by a "lou hei" session. Before we knew it, the event was over and we packed up the things to return them to MPFSC. Overall, seeing the smiles on the residents' faces really brightened our day, and we felt that all the planning and preparation was all worthwhile.
