Class of 2020<br />
Looking back four years ago, I remember being a<br />
young, enthusiastic student eagerly anticipating the<br />
start of university life. It is always my pleasure to<br />
share my experiences with current CKY students, as I<br />
hope to provide valuable insights and inspiration to<br />
everyone. Currently in my fourth year at a local<br />
university, I am pursuing my dream of becoming a<br />
physiotherapist. I have worked in various settings to<br />
enrich my clinical experiences, including hospitals,<br />
private clinics, sports teams, and community centres.<br />
Physiotherapy has become the focal point of my life.<br />
Sometimes, acts of kindness do not have to be grand<br />
gestures; even a warm smile and a small act of care<br />
can leave a profound impact on others. I vividly recall a<br />
patient I encountered who had suffered a stroke,<br />
resulting in severe impairment of his right limbs and<br />
speech (dysphasia). From the moment I approached<br />
him, I could sense his frustration and despair<br />
regarding his current situation. Upon assessing his<br />
condition, I knew I couldn't improve his condition<br />
significantly; instead, my role was to preserve his<br />
function and prevent muscle deconditioning.<br />
Throughout the rest of his treatment, I offered<br />
unwavering support, care, and encouragement. While<br />
no miracles occurred, at least he was able to leave the<br />
hospital with a smile on his face.<br />
This experience taught me the<br />
importance of never underestimating<br />
the impact of our actions. Our positivity,<br />
energy, and even the smallest acts of<br />
kindness can greatly influence<br />
someone else's journey.<br />
"Small acts make a big impact."<br />
