Went to this thing called "Dialogue in the Dark" with the RDAs (plus other peeps as well). Where we have to be guided in a dark (pitch black) environment by a visually impaired (not just plain 'blind') person. Was really an eye opeing experience, it was fun (and not the mention enlightening) to experience the everyday life of a visually impaired person, like walking in a park, boarding a boat, and even eating in a cafe (yes, without any sight). Our guide Hafiz was a really nice guy, plus he seemed to be able to see in the dark while we have to feel the walls and use the white canes we were issued. That $12 (for 1 hour in some Ngee Ann Poly building) was seriously worth it. Pity Mrs Cheong could not join in the fun as well.
Now I'm back, and I had to revise a lesson plan that Mr Jit was not happy about. I hope I was detailed enough, otherwise everyone's effort will go to waste. Anticipation sucks in this situation.
