at walters.

Alright folks, I'm back in Perth. Packing up before I head back Singapore again- to start work. If I haven't told you...I've got myself a job at the Dyslexia Association of Singapore. Whoooopeee dooo~ got myself a job working with kids (and abit of interaction with their parents....*woe*)..then there's the usual report writing, and research, which is i guess inevitable in psych. I've signed a 3yr contract with them..no, theres no scholarship involved... there was just alot of mention from them that its a heavy investment on their part, takes alot to train up a new psychologist, it'll take 1/2yr to at least get the hang of the work there... so we'll see. i was abit hesitant at first, but owells..i thought why not. to gain a full understanding and be good at something, i guess 3years seems fair enough. anyway this will probably make me go all out and do my very best...not that i wldnt if there isnt a contract, but i guess i dont have a choice now. =)

the 2 senior psychologists who interviewed me seemed really nice...so im hoping it'll be a good working environment.. and... that i'll receive the training that i've been promised. i wonder wat working life is gonna be like.. hopefully i'll develop a passion for this job...if not..it'll be quite tragic. so its mostly assessments on our part...but not much of interventions, which means helping the child cope with dyslexia and stuffs..they have specialist teachers for that. which is rather disappointing i felt. assessments would probably take 1 or 2 sessions the most? i don't reckon there'll be any followups from there....anyway this would all come in much later.

i guess for now, i need to have a thorough understanding of wat dyslexia is...know everything there is to know abt dyslexia. honestly, i think during this four years in uni, i've only had ONE lecture on dyslexia...oh wait a min, not a whole session dedicated to dyslexia..jus a mini little portion of that ONE lecture. so anyway, i've been doin abit of research on my own..reading up online..got 2 books from Murdoch library as well...hopefully i'll start work with enough knowledge (for the time being) to not portray myself as an airhead. -_-"

so wat else.....lets see..back in perth, and its really hot. alright, i dun really wanna start complaining anyway. my last time back in perth, some stuffs im really gonna miss...and some, not at all. *ops*...walters has closed~ omgosh...din even realise everyone's gone. until Adrian came and sit by me~ O_o ... okay, gotta go now.
