yesterday was a tiring day, j8 midnight shopping day.it was the 1st time i 've been to such event=D.

by 6pm, queues for $20 portable dvd player, $1lucky dip, information counter-lucky draws, bird nest, $1 goodie bags...were very long and imagine..i waited 2hrs standing for the $20 dvd player with my mum.
we were the 8th person waiting and buying the player.
As the queues get longer, the more heated arguments were as it was limited to 1st 50 customers.
One person had cut the queue and the others were like arguing tt they hav been queuing for 2hrs and it was unfair for the people behind to wait so long but in the end nv got the chance to buy the dvd player. so in conclusion, that person backed out(:

then after collecting and buying the player, we went to queue again for the lucky draws and the lucky dip, followed by the $1 goodie bag. the queues were so long and the crowds were so thick.
ate at kfc and waited for a while to midnight~the midnight lucky draws.

it was my first time to be out so late in singapore...12.30am reached home=P LOL break record!!

i can't attend the dry run because of ncdcc course): i hate to miss out alot but it can't be help)): haixz...it's too bad the 2 events crashed on the same day...):

hi today there is debate training too, as u guessed(:

topic was THIS HOUSE WOULD BAN EUTHANESIA
-'mercy' killing
-painless quick dying through injection
-patient is terminally ill
-dr death
-murder

1. better to die than to suffer
2. live longer
3. wait for possible cure
4. doctor's role--prevent suffering OR to save lives ( you all decide)

rules:

-3 person per grp

-presentation/your opinion

-3-5minutes(:

there is a debate going on to show a real debate: of euthanesia too(:

ms wong came to the classroom b4 the debate started, which kinda shocked me..haha=D
well, but she went away slightly b4 the debate had ended, about 11am. l0l!!

so our grp chose to BAN EUTHANESIA

some of the points:

-if euthanesia is allowed, doctors are encourage not ot give the best medical care and attention to the patient

-when there is an extremely painful disease, it would result ion euthanesia, patient waould want to end their lives

-patient is afraid of of financial burden, medical care is expensive, so it would lead to euthanesia, not caring of their own lives

-patient may not able to afford euthanesia

-there would be potential abuse of euthanesia

-take euthanesia against their own will

-if euthanesia is legalised, government would then not pay attention to it

medical care withdrawn without consent

-euthanesia could be banned in stages, so the government can handle it better

-patients could be pressurized to to convinced them to take euthanesia

-alternative for taking euthanesia: painkillers to help them cope with their illness((:

all the grps have to go and present it): haha

bye!!
