Just a note....

I am really ashamed. My blog's gone stale. Time flies and its more than a year since my last update. Well, I guess is plain laziness and busyness.

Fast forward, quite a lot had happened. On my 53rd birthday this year, I made a decision to go back to college for additional qualification and certificate. After leaving the university some 30 years ago, it was  challenging to settle in a classroom routine. I had always being active and staying in class for 5 days a week can be quite daunting.

My course was for 4 months, with 3 months of theory and 1 month practical placement. I managed fairly well, albeit the study lapse and occasional short term memory loss. No doubts there were assignments, tests, workbooks that set my adrenaline rushing and brain thinking!

I had completed my theory and in the midst of finishing my practical placement in an aged care facility near my place. It is truly an eye-opener seeing older people succumbed to the ravages of dementia, senility and other diseases. Ageing  is a continual process of development, change and decline that starts at conception, taking one through adulthood, and into the later years. Something that will affect us sooner or later..
