UNICEF Club Facebook Page

This is my second year in the KGV UNICEF Club. This year I was in charge of our Facebook page to keep the school informed with our club UNICEF Hong Kong’s activities.

It was challenging to constantly keep this page updated throughout the year because I had to take my own initiative. I think I could have done better because there were many lengths of hiatuses throughout the school year where I didn’t post anything for a few weeks.

Refugee Computer Course

This activity was a completely new experience for me as I’ve never taught anyone ICT skills before nor have worked closely with refugees. New skills that I’ve developed in this process if more patience, as the collaborative  learning process can be tiresome and may require a lot of perseverance. 

One major obstacle I had to overcome was the language barrier. As majority of our clients did not speak English as their first language, it was a times very difficult for them to communicate with us. It required a lot of patience on both of our parts in order for us to move forward and help our clients develop useful ICT skills.

As an ethical consideration, I have not posted any photographs of our clients on any forms of social media without their consent, in order to protect their confidentiality. Additionally, I became aware of the global significance of a refugee’s lifestyle as I was sometimes able to speak with them one on one about their lives. I learnt that it is not quite what is pictured in the media as it can be sometimes deceiving.

September 2015

I know I have to make it up for the days that I wasn't able to update my blog. I have been quite busy these past few months and I really had lesser reasons to access my laptop which includes laziness plus the fact that I have internet in my phone. And blogging through mobile can be inconvenient sometimes.

So, September. I had my hair color retouched. And this time it was in Feigh's house. I had a lot of activities during the month, not to mention the friday nights with the whole MIT Group almost every week which somehow becomes a tradition. Haha! It's like, a Friday wouldn't be complete without it. also, I started playing online games again, DoTA and LOL, with Monika, Jed, JB to name a few. And I even tried FPS like Assault Fire. 

I got my backpay from SiTEL. Yey! And there comes the Global Olympics. I was a marshall there. My first year and first time trying to join as one of the organizers, it was exciting. I got full access pass and free food and a shirt! And speaking about shirt, I got my Dutdutan 2015 shirt from the mail. It's glow in the dark baby. I also got my braces by the end of the month. Which was really painful as heck. On weekends, I'm mostly asleep or in Fairview with my sister.
