Happy Birthday to Shan

Today is my colleague Shan's birthday. I met her before i went to Australia as she picked up my position. I worked with her for half year and have a very treasurable memories between us.

When i was in Australia, we always keep in touch by SMS. She visited my family,share all the things which was happened in Hong Kong. Even i knew her for half year,but i already treated her as one of my family members. She always remind me not to work too hard and lose my own life.

Today i work with her again, she become my buddy and still keeping remind me to balance my life and work. I hope she has a happy birthday, has a good relationship with God, her family, husband and me. All the best to her and let's cheer up together. Hope we can overcome these harsh two years!!!

Tears

In these few days, i saw many tears from my friend and my client, it makes me feel so heavy......how can i do?

My New Office

Before i left Hong Kong to Australia, my office was at Aberdeen in Hong Kong Island. During I was in Australia, my office was moved to Kowloon. It's my new office! There are 6 social workers and 5 peer counselors with only 6 desks in the office, you can imagine how crowd it is. Because of this, we may move to another place in the few months later. Luckily, we always stay outside to work rather than stay at the office, so we can share the desks in order to tackle the crowded problem at that moment. Hope we can find another good place as soon as possible.

After the team meeting on Wednesday night, the atmosphere between the colleague seems to become better and i feel good for this result. Hope we can keep smiling even we work at a harsh time. Let's cheer up together!!!

Simore in Hong Kong

Simore who i met in Berri arrived at Hong Kong yesterday. Today I met her with Alex, we have dinner and watched the firework in front of the harbour. As there was Typhoon in Hong Kong yesterday also, the weather is not very good and rain a lot. It affects the quality of the firework, hope she still can enjoy it!

Hey guys, i am waiting for you to come and visit Hong Kong too. Hope to see u soon in here!!!

Feel so frustrated

It's my 3rd day work, but i already work at the same organization for three years before. I knew that my job was very demanding because of heavey workload and difficult cases.

Before i came back, i heard that the situation is worser than before, as too much work with limited manpower. i can feel the frustration of my colleague. Last night, my boss asked me the comment of this situation, i told him the true. However, i didn't know the other colleague agree my action or not, it makes me feel frustrated too.

Last night i tried to have a self-evaluation about that, I don't know my action is correct or not, but i think the attitude is the most important thing. i know i always in trouble in conversation becasue of call a spade a spade. i should be bare in mind about that, but i believe i only want to build up a more humble and peaceful working environment instead of frustrated, complain....hope they can understand me and hope i can learn from this incident too. God Bless......

New Stage

Narrative Therapy Course was finished, work will be started soon, 1 hour later......Cheer Up!!!!!

Youth Power

I am a youth social worker, my job is to providing drug and sex counseling services to high risk young people who always stay in Discos, night club or pubs. The society always blame on the youth, such as label they are the trouble maker, disempower their abilities and so on. However, I believe that youth have their unique and powerful abilities, but they can’t come out under the limitations of the society. I really feel sad about that……

Today, when I went to a bookshop, one girl approached me and introduced that there was a counter for selling their products. The girls are come from one high school, they like painting so much and decide to create their own brand. Once time, they heard that they can set up a counter and sell their products at the shop if they can pass the interview about how good is their “idea”. Finally, they passed the interview and can sell their product in there. When I heard about their story of how to reaching their dream, it encourages me a lot and reaffirm my belief that youth have their powerful abilities. It’s a very beautiful picture.

I will start to work on next week, I know it is very difficult to work with my service target as I need to spend lots of time on them, I really feel stressful but now I obtain more energy from the girls. I hope I can try my best to go with my service targets, cheer up!!!!!
