We miss Batam...

Funny how only few days have passed and I've started to miss BATAM. The chalet, the screening site, the hotel breakfast, the excitement, everything...

The thing is, not only me who miss BATAM. The whole DOPT Batam OITP group miss it. It was our first clinic in SPOC, but everyone's minds are still in Batam.

Maybe it's the bond that we've created whilst we're over there that made us united, or maybe it's just that there were no major arguments that broke out and everyone live in peace under one roof; maybe it's the stress-free environment we're in that made us miss it, or it's just that we feel at home over there.

Clinic just now was quite okay, since my patient is not a difficult one [can't say much, Patient confidentiality]. But there's no patient in the second slot that gave me a free time.

Btw, we all look like professionals in our clinic coat. Hahahaha. I will post the pic we took just now when they've uploaded it on facebook.

Erghh I need to brush up my skills... You reckon, what kind of brush I should use?

On the journey back to Singapore - while on the Ferry

On the Wednesday night, we had a sharing session - everyone shared their dreams, an event in their lives that they considered to be significant. Frankly, I was clueless. I just don't know what to draw. So I just scribbled on the paper a netball court, soccer field, badminton court & a running track which doesn't look like one. Hahaha!

What I shared with them was that I was from Madrasah and I love sports and I don't to go into the details here. There were other things that they shared - some are touching, sad, funny.

On the last night in Batam, we had a nice dinner - Buffet. The set up was quite romantic that we were all impressed! But then, they only serve plain water! [There were tea & coffee, but still...] Spoiler.

Before leaving the area that night, we made a big circle and played "heart attack"! Haha it wasn't really "Heart Attack" but it uses that concept. Everyone has a piece of paper with their names on. Then we have to pass it to our right, and write something on someone else's paper - something encouraging etc - within 30 secs. This goes on until we got our paper back. So it's something memorable to bring home :D
