2nd Art Therapy session ytd

Ytd was my 2nd art therapy session. Saw the prev session art pieces in Dian's hands surprsied me as I wonder SGH got such advanced copier can scan & print out in color!! hehe

Dian asked me what I wanna do & I've no idea at all. I was over tired & still dizzy as morn had fasting blood test & cldnt slp the night before & felt damn hungry.

She let me chose to have the standard dwg block or the much bigger piece, of course, I chose the bigger one. Was told to fold into dividers of 4. I've to complete the sentences by dwg....

1. I am...
2. I feel...
3. I hope...
4. I will...

I was given 40 mins to complete the dwgs. We discussed over the pictures I drew & in the middle of the session, Dian said I looked very unhappy but I was unhappy abt her but I was over tired for past week with lotsa appts & lasting whole day each.
