    Counselling Service


    Counselling is a free service for all current full-time students. The counseling session is by a professionally trained and qualified Counsellor.  Your attendance and any information you provide is kept confidential and will not be disclosed without your permission. 

    The Counselling Service provides:

    ·    somewhere to talk about problems ranging from everyday hassles to those that are seriously affecting your ability to function

    ·    a safe place to let off steam

    ·    an opportunity to generate solutions to your problems

    ·    somebody who will listen to you 

    Counselling is not about:

    ·    telling you what to do

    ·    making moral judgements 

    ·   putting you in a scary or formal situation

    ·    performing miracles

    ·    providing quick fixes

    If you are not sure that you may need counselling, consider whether you have been experiencing:

    ·    thoughts of pulling out of University

    ·    a sense that something is wrong

    ·    physical signs of emotional stress

    ·    sleep problems

    ·    concentration problems

    ·    feelings that are new or that worry you

    ·    thoughts about harming yourself 

    Talking with someone who is not so close to the problem situation may help you to:

    ·    see it more clearly

    ·    understand your feelings about it, and

    ·    discover solutions. 

    The Counsellor will help by listening without judgement, offering new perspectives, and working with you on strategies that are right for you.

    Here are some of the issues students talk to us about:

    • adjustment issues
    • alcohol
    • anxiety
    • assault
    • cultural issues
    • depression
    • drugs
    • exam anxiety
    • family issues
    • friendships
    • gay & lesbian issues
    • games addiction
    • grief & loss
    • harassment

    Love Matters

     

    When the phone ring "Green Green"

    I "Pink" up the phone

    and say "Yellow"

    "Blue" is this?

    "White" do you want?

    You don't "Purple-ly" call me.

    If you make me angry,

    I will not call you "Black"

    3 Oranges, 2 of Us, 1 Year On!

    Some things about..

    Liew Soo Eng

    Are just plain obvious.

    By Raymond Ling

    12/24/2008 3:43 PM

     

     

    She always says “sorry”,

    Always willing to give her time to help others,

    Always holding the fort,

    Always coming home late,

    Always eating instant noodles,

    Always trying to be cheerful,

    Always hardworking,

    Always giving,

    Always caring,

    Always encouraging,

    Always lending a hand,

    Always a very awesome, fabulous and loving girlfriend.

     

     

    All while bouncing on top of high heeled, leg hurting boots with a 5kg bag and a hungry stomach. And that’s all before most people are out of bed. She’s the kind of Barbie that you see in the toy store and you’ll go on your knees begging your mom to buy before your mom drags you out on all fours. Her smile could easily brighten up an entire stadium, that’s not including her pearl white teeth that you can Google earth and see from the moon. She looks fabulous in shorts and tees, without makeup she looks like a queen. The “tick tiak, tick tiak” sounds she makes while walking, plus that princess like swagger she has, would put even Miss Singapore to shame. All this is only the appearance of the girl I call Liew Soo Eng. How many girls can you say that about?

     

     

    She lives to serve others, seeing an ant cross the street; she’ll dive over rush hour traffic just to save it. Mother Theresa said “I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world.” Liew Soo Eng is the ink of the pen in the hand of a writing God, who is sending a love letter to the whole of Singapore. Her heart is like a singing bird, whose love songs can calm the roughest seas. The words of truth are simple; her words are simple and true. She’s the greatest gift from Heaven, the type of Christmas present you tear open ever so gently to keep the wrapper intact. The way she holds my hands, makes all my downs go away. Her sweet sweet smile, like sunflower fields. Her gentle caress brushing against the skin like the cooling breeze on a warm night, sweeps away all troubles, makes the darkness into light.

    HSBC TreeTop Walk

    The HSBC TreeTop Walk (HSBC TTW) is the highlight of several long hiking routes in MacRitchie that brings you through different stages of mature secondary forest. The first of its kind in Singapore and in the region, this free-standing suspension bridge connects the two highest points (Bukit Peirce and Bukit Kalang) in MacRitchie and offers a bird's eye view of the community of plants and animals that live in the forest canopy. The total length of the walkway is about 250m and its height from the forest floor varies, with the highest point at 25m.

    Map  

    Walked 13 Kilometers!

      

    I would cross all of life's bridges with you..

    Arielle:
    How does she know you love her?
    How does she know she's yours?
    Josh:
    How does she know that you love her?
    Arielle:
    How do you show her you love her?
    Both:
    How does she know that you really, really, truely love her?
    How does she know that you love her?
    How do you show her you love her?
    How does she know that you really, really, truely love her?
    Arielle:
    It's not enough to take the one you love for granted
    You must remind her, or she'll be inclined to say...
    "How do I know he loves me?"
    (How does she know that you love her?
    How do you show her you love her?)
    "How do I know he's mine?"
    (How does she know that you really, really, truely love her?)
    Well does he leave a little note to tell you you are on his mind?
    Send you yellow flowers when the sky is grey? Heyy!
    He'll find a new way to show you, a little bit everyday
    That's how you know, that's how you know!
    He's your love...
    Josh:
    You've got to show her you need her
    Don't treat her like a mind reader
    Each day do something to need her
    To believe you love her
    Arielle:
    Everybody wants to live happily ever after
    Everybody wants to know their true love is true...
    How do you know he loves you?
    (How does she know that you love her?
    How do you show her you need her?)
    How do you know he's yours?
    (How does she know that you really, really, truely-)
    Well does he take you out dancin' just so he can hold you close?
    Dedicate a song with words in
    Just for you? Ohhh!
    All:
    He'll find his own way to tell you
    With the little things he'll do
    That's how you know
    That's how you know!
    Arielle:
    He's your love
    He's your love...
    That's how you know
    (la la la la la la la la)
    He loves you
    (la la la la la la la la)
    That's how you know
    (la la la la la la la la)
    It's true
    (la la la la la)
    Because he'll wear your favorite color
    Just so he can match your eyes
    Rent a private picnic
    By the fires glow-oohh!
    All:
    His heart will be yours forever
    Something everyday will show
    That's how you know
    (That's how you know)
    That's how you know
    (That's how you know)
    That's how you know
    (That's how you know)
    That's how you know
    (That's how you know)
    That's how you know
    (That's how you know)
    That's how you know
    (That's how you know)
    That's how you know!
    Arielle:
    He's your love...
    Josh:
    That's how she knows that you love her
    That's how you show her you love her
    Arielle:
    That's how you know...
    That's how you know...
    He's your love...
