old ppl

do u prefer to b old & wrinkly or young n pimply?

the latter?

now..

think twice..


2nd day of RAPP - rehab care, aged care, palliative care n psychiatry of old age..
going to deal with n look after older ppl for the next 6 weeks..not paticularly looking forward to it, but i dun hate it as well..just another rotation to me..

had a talk bout Ageism on the introduction day..here r some risk factors for being ageist -- young, male, no interest in aged care and no social contact with well ppl above 65yo..i thk it's interesting..ageism is sth a bit different from other -isms e.g. sexism n racism..coz u dun belong to the other group that u hate or discriminate e.g. gal vs boy or chinese vs malay vs indian...but unlike for ageism, u ll gradually grow old n become someone whom u initially(or still) hav prejudice on i.e. an elderly..vy ironic..

trying to instill some positive attitudes towards older ppl in myself..:)

lets grow old tgt..
