Thailand mission trip 2006

Yup! as many of you know, I went for a Thailand mission trip! It was AWESOME!! well, I will post what I wrote for my essay that I handed in for rangers. haha.. Cuz I'm a lil lazy to repeat the whole thing. so, yeah.. the following is my essay.. read on! =)

As a group representing Bethel Royal Rangers outpost number 1, we went to Chiang Rai for a mission trip from 16th June to 21st June 2006. God is good and He blessed us with a safe and quick journey from Singapore to Chiang Mai airport and from there to Chiang Rai. The van ride from the airport to Blessings church was approximately three hours. It was a good time to take short naps, take pictures of the beautiful scenery, and reflection.
Through out the trip, we had to travel around a lot. The first day was spent on buying of our logistics from Macro. The snacks there were so cheap; we all could not resist buying! We bought chocolates and sweets that we estimated would last us for the next five days or more. These did not come on a packet or two but boxes! So each of us bought some snacks each while looking out for the logistics for craft as well. The girls then decided that the craft we had initially planned needed to be scraped as we could not find the materials we wanted. So, we improvised! We decided to decorate cups and mini bottles instead of wristbands. The children in the various villages enjoyed it when we taught them how to decorate it and they made such lovely decorated cups too! We also bought balloons that could be twisted into shapes for the children. That was our back up craft that we had in mind.
Thank God the children had fun decorating their own little cups and also putting on the balloon hats that some of the commanders made. At Ayo Village, many children put the balloons in their mouths and ‘tasted’ them. It was a good thing none of them bit it till it burst. At least I did not see anything of that sort occurring. It was nice seeing the children having so much fun with the balloons and just playing with it in their different ways.
Next, it was amazing how the language barrier was overcome through the use of body language and hand signals. One thing I learnt was that a smile is a language that does not need to be taught. It does not matter if you smile at a child or an adult; they all reply you with a smile. In my opinion, a smile is an expression of friendliness and approachability. When I smiled at the children, they started opening up and smiled to me whenever they saw me for the rest of the day. Their smiles never fail to amuse me and bring warmth to my heart. Despite the simplicity of their lives, you can see the joy on their faces and in their eyes.
I really thank God for the children and how wonderful they are. One thing they taught me was the heart of worship. Looking at the simple way they worship and sing their hearts out to God, it really touched my heart. God reminded me that He does not look at our physical appearance but He looks at our hearts. When I saw a little boy about the age of two singing his heart out to God, it moved me and I was tearing. You could really see the Holy Spirit moving by looking at how the orphans were worshipping God wholeheartedly. I have never seen such pure and innocent love and worship unto God. So this is what it means to have childlike faith.
God is so so good! Through out the entire trip He watched over us. I remember how we were playing games and He provided such good sunny weather. Just when we finished our games and finished giving out the goody bags, it started to rain. What great timing! God is so good. The weather through out the trip was wonderful. It was never too hot or too cold. He sent sufficient sunshine and rain. And at all the perfect times too! I remember the sound of the heavy rain approaching during debrief at the end of the day. It was like the sound of a waterfall. Soon the heavy rain came down. It was so refreshing!
I am really grateful to have been given the opportunity to go for this mission trip. Really thank God for all the wonderful people who planned this trip for us too. This trip has taught me a lot and has opened my eyes to a lot of things. Really thank God for being with us and leading and guiding us. It would be good to go every year! =) Praise the Lord!

Leaders' Retreat 2006

It was such a wonderful time being found in the prescence of God once again and just letting Him speak in you life through all the sessions and His word. It was amazing..sometimes, when you are in His prescence, you just forget all that's around you and you feel His wonderful love. It's such a wonderful feeling..

some people dont believe in God cuz they cant see Him. well, if someone touches your heart and is always there for you. If someone is always a conforter, ever forgiving and loving. It is hard to reject Him and say He's not real. Dont you agree? some may say 'but God has never touched my life. so why should I believe Him?' Well, did you allow Him in the first place? God is a God of love, and not a God of force. He gives us the free will to choose. He does not force us to love Him. He just loves us unconditionally and waits for us to reciprocate that love.

I really thank God for the leaders retreat. Pastor Danny was such a blessing and he is such an annointed speaker who is so lead by the spirit. He has shared so much and prophecied so much. My prayer is that one day I'll experience what it is like to be THAT close and in tuned with the Holy Spirit. It is such a wonderful thing to see what is being done in auzzie alone. If that could happen in Singapore? WhhhOOO!!!! We'll be on FIRE. I earnestly pray that day will come. well, Christians, lets all pray and interceed for our generation! :)

haiz..

gonna get scolded by her again tmr.. I am bracing myself. but somehow, we are never ever prepared are we? there is always something we missed, something we did not forsee, something that is lacking. haiz.. anyways, the comfort lies in the fact that God is in control.

These few days are a bit.. erm.. down.. yeah.. wont elaborate.. Well, let's just unite in prayer that all who need comfort are comforted, and all who need love will be loved. yeah?

ok, besides that, all other things have been ok.. God granted me the desires of my heart 3 times this week! haha.. to be exact, almost 5. haha.. anyway, they were very small things, but it really made my day. or should I say, days. haha.. and thanks to all the wonderful pple who were there with words of comfort and encouragement. I really appreciate it. =)

jm: hey, once again, I am so sorry I had to keep changing my mind. Well, that day was also really a bad day for me as you know by now. But I wanna apologise for u having to run around ordering and canceling my order. I understand ya frustration. Was really hoping I could be there for your very very first performance. will TRY MY VERY BEST to be there for the next one yeah? miss u!

alright, I will just end here. next update.. hmm.. I dont know when.. soon I hope.. hols are coming!! Tmr there's SFC camp. I dunno if I'm looking forward to it. hmm.. but if we can survive AJTC, what could SFC camp do to us rite? haha.. me rather.. ok, lets see.. at least I dont think we have to do outdoor cooking.. yay! haha.. no dutch oven.. although, it was quite fun.. hee =D

okie.. take care! bye..

mr z: your pm coming NOW! haha..

weary...

Hey all.. I am sorry.. I know it's been a million years since my last post. ha.. well, this week has not exactly been the best of weeks. but what can I expect rite? It's gonna be like that for the next 2 years unless something happens.. nvm.. dont wanna dwell.. lemme just say these past few days were full of tiredness, irritation, tears, anger, etc etc.. yet, I thank God. There are other things that have been so wonderful for this week.

1) We won Rugby champ!

He gives trials, yet he blesses with so much more so you dont get tooooo overwhelmed.. =) It was overwhelming at the moment, we are in the process of trying to do smth.. or so I hope.. let's just pray and see how things go.. I am so looking fwd to the weekend =)

btw: please keep me in prayer ok? thanks dearies.. =) later~ see u all in the next million years.. haha..

Project work

yeah! yesterday we had our very first pw meeting at my place. PTL! it was good! we did not really progress in terms of our GPP. but we had time to help each other with our idividual PIs and to refine to one that we chose to do as our group PI. I think it is really cool that our group could jus click like that. haha.. looks like all our fears, or rather, all their fears are unheard of now. hahaha.. =) thank God.

Hamidah: now u have a new found friend! haha.. :D
YiJie: haha.. so so so so sorry I got you so lost.. :D
Nicole and charlene: glade to have u gals over. :D

yupps... and PTL for the 3 nights of Bible emphasis last week. although it affected my study time a lil, I dont regret it at all.. they were 3 refreshing and interesting nights, looking at the word. wonderful..

yupps.. that's about all I wanna say.. will update again another time.. :) happy labour day everyone! now I've gotta eat and start labouring academically. lol..

AJTC get2gether, sports day, blah blah blah..

ok, upon request.. haha.. no la, I wanted to blog about it also, just too lazy.. AJTC get2gether was wonderful! haha.. ok, I dont know if everyone felt the same way. but I know I enjoyed it. haha.. we had food and chat. most of the time it was only one person talking. haha.. but it was hilarious. all the funny school jokes and camp jokes were coming free flow. haha.. super fun! thanks to my maid and mummy who cooked. simple dishes to eat. well, over all, totally enjoyed having that group over at my place. nice to meet all of u guys agaiN! =)

ok, today was sports day! we won the champion house!!! yeah!! yeah!! yeah!! haha.. ok.. this is like after how many years? =) yeah! great job to allthe pple who ran, jumped, throwed, etc etc! =) haha.. after that went with worm and chicken to PS. we ate and I watch a movie with chicken. we watched take the lead. it was soooo nice! personally, I loved it. =) so so so so so so love it. haha.. went to watch movie although I was broke because got this movie voucher thing to use. haha.. I know, sounds dumb to some pple.. but it is gonna expire, so quickly use lor. haha.. I mean, how often do u get to pay 4.50 for a tix? hee.. =D

and today, I found out my econs teach is an ex ex senior! haha.. yeah! Cedarians unite! it was such a wonderful suprise. I hope she gets posted back to SA and teaches us again. haha.. we have so much fun learning from her. haha.. =) unfortunately, I found out that I failed my econs test. =( it is so so saddening. well, tmr will get the paper back. so, gonna see where my mistakes or lack of knowledge were. oh wells, very sad la..

alrightey, going off now.. see u all! =)

Overnite cyling...Yeah!!

YEAH! We did it pple! 50km! haha.. It was indeed a brand new experience. have never gone without sleep to cycle such a distance before. also, this is my first time cycling on the road as well.. initially it was a lil scary. but after that got use to it and futhurmore, the roads were so empty. It was also a wonderful feeling when we cycled back to east coast park and it was so empty and serene. We just cycled on whichever lane we wanted. haha.. felt like, so much freedom and space. I also had time to think things over and resolved what was bothering me that day. wont mention about that la. Cuz I thought it over le.

Ruying: not all the time shoving things on the shelf will resolve it. That's y I decided to spend time to think about it. =) thanks for being there though. thanks..

ok, we started cycling at 11.55pm and we finished at 6am? about there la.,.haha.. we had supper at changi village. thank God for giving us good weather. know what? when we stopped to eat, it rained, then when we finished eating, the rain stopped. isnt god amazing? haha..

alright, I have loads of homework to catch up with.. gtg le.. later! =)

These days..

Have been blogging less and less yeah? yups. school work is really piling up. ans as my teach said, it's not just about completing the work now. it's about keeping the pile at a relatively low level. So true. Yet I know I am not working hard enough. Tiredness is my bad excuse. I always tell myself to work hard during the weekends, then something comes up. I just finish what is due the next day and leave the rest to accumulate. not that I am very free and procrestinate like in sec school as much. It's just that, school hours are sooo long and on top of that have piano and SFC.

Dont get me wrong, I am definitely NOT complaining cuz these are kind of my outlets for stress. (whatever little of that that I should be having now) haha.. yup! I am not exactly breaking down. in fact, I am pretty fine actually. my laziness adds to my well-being. if you know what I mean. I am now waiting to have geog bridging lecture. school ended at 1.15pm for me. but it only starts at 5.30pm. SO LATE! haha.. but nah, I dont exactly mind. It kinda forces me to do certain things that I have to do. (this not being an essential one la. haha)

ok, so yeaterday we got into our project work groups. haha.. I am in the same group as my nephew! lol.. PW doesnt seem to be going well at all. so many drafts have been rejected and now I realise how lousy my first draft was. now I realise my second one was not much better. It's like, I think I have put in enough thought, yet after being reprimanded as a class then I realise what I left out.

today, had econs test. I did not finish studying! ahhh!! well, studied most of it la. but not thoroughly. I so hope I dont get a C or worse still fail. but I know what is done has been done and I cant do nething about it. so, no point brooding rite? but I cant help stealing a thought or two for it. haiz~ nvm.

on the bright side, I got back my math quiz, earlier this week I think. and I think I was 2nd in class. yay! together with my nephew I think. haha.. lol.. I thought I was going to fail! lol. in the end, it was ok la. it was an A. yes. but the teach already told us it was an easy quiz. so, no bonus there. it waqs simply expected. haha.. oh well.. my folks were glad! :)

ok, going to have overnite cycling on fri and AJTC get-together this sat. I hope and pray that everything turns out fine. overnite cycling attendance may not be too good. especially for the O'level pple. dont worry guys! you all can do it de! Elhannah! esp u yeah! =) love yous and see you on sat. =) I wonder what we will do for the get-together. it;s at my place. but only having some food. activities? nil. hahaha.. we'll see how things go and see when I can blog again. later!

small world!

haha.. I find this super amusing and surprising! haha.. to think my distant nephew is my classmate! I only found out on saturday. I was like, amazed. haha.. couldnt wait to tell him on monday. lol. so I told him this morning. saw an expression on his face I've never seen b4. dunno how to describe also la.

haha.. then so cute. borrow things from me say thank you aunty. haha.. now almost the whole class knows, and some are saying how I should step over him. so mean rite! haha.. it's just such a small world! haha..

anyways, it's been a nice day, thank God for the wonderful showers of rain. well, I was kinda looking fwd to ME, but the teach didnt show. dunno y also. so, ok lor. haha.. was in some sort of a dilemma today, told lio. but ok la. told daddy also, and I've decided not to brood over it since I do not have a serious conviction over this matter. like what my distant nephew said, (haha.. sounds funny) gotta think if it's worth it. and perhaps it was.

Good friday..

last nite went to trinity to watch their good fri drama. it was really good and I enjoyed myself. PTL!! so many rededications and salvations. It's amazing what Jesus did for us on the cross isnt it? well, by the time I reached aljunied. it was already 11pm. haha.. then went to meet mum, dad, conrad, elliot, weili, lio, uncle chong po, uncle jason, aunty irene, luana, and their cousins. haha.. ok la, didnt know they were there, but we went to eat. it was their supper, my dinner. lol. I was ilegally eating twisties on the bus on the way to trinity. lol. =)

ok, the drama was great! great voices, and smart way of infusing the sermon into the drama. PTL! it was a good time. thank you antoinette. I really liked it. =)

ok, yester afternoon, I went out with JM. too bad we were not able to catch a movie. JM! yes, next week must go! haha.. or else our vouchers will go to waste. haha.. we plan which day ok? but my nxt week very busy. see how ba.

yesterday it was pouring like mad and JM, being the stupid girl she is, never bring her brolly AGAIN. haha.. then bring guitar summore. SMART la! haha.. (yes JM, I just insulted u) =D hahaha..

okie.I'm off now.. gtg do PI. haha..

Live concert!

yeah! praise the Lord! Live concert was a success. Praise the Lord for the many salvations and rededications. =) It was good and the think the band did a great job too! great!

I never knew u were from SA! haha.. it's nice to meet familiar faces. It was a nice time talking to you too. =) see u around.

yesterday, played my new guit until my left index finger is sore. One whole night already and it's still sore. *ouch* but yeah, I am happy with it. as zelig said, it's nice to owna new instrument. especially now that it is MINE. hahahahhaa..

later going for outpost outing. yay! hopefulling ruying can join us even though she'll be late. that girl went for live concert too! yeah!! Ruying, was so happy to find out that u were coming. hope u had a good time, and I pray that God touched you. did He? =)

short post. a lot of homework waiting for me. update again next time. =)

My very own accoustic guitar!! =D =) =P :) :D :P

haha.. yes. as some of you may know, my dad promised to get me my very own accoustic to celebrate the fact that I got into SAJC. today, daddy picked me up from school after SFC briefing for live concert. then he ask if I wanna go to the swee lee at sims drive there. I said ok. then this dude came to assist us. so, I chose this guit that I liked. well, firstly, i love the colour. just as I wanted, the colours are not sooo common. yups.. =) then it's an accoustic with plug ins and in-built tuner. how cool is that?! haha..

now, it's just too precious. must ask permission before using ok? and dont bang it yeah? haha.. and for the first time in my life, I actually owna bottle of guit polish and fret conditioner. lol. oh yes, and my very own guit strap of course. thank you so much daddy!!

well, initiall the guit was 600++ bucks. then dunno why got 50% discount. so,it became 538+ I think. then my dad ask, can disc summore or not? so, the nice dude took away the GST. in the end he only charged us $520. well, to me, it's still very ex, especially when I am not a pro at guit at all. but compared with 600++, it's really a good deal. haha..

the dude was so nice. PTL for that. =) as I was waiting to pay up and my dad went to browse around, he was asking if I was getting a guit cuz I did well in an exam or it was my birthday. haha.. I was like, 'nah.. cuz I appealed into a school and got in.' wouldnt wanna bore a stranger with the full story yeah.. so, he was nice and said smth like 'good. must rmbr to study and not just play guit all the time yeah?' so nice rite. haha.. then when my dad came back to pay up, he was like 'rmbr what I told u yeah? and take care'

Thank God. dont these kind of pple just make your day? haha.. not only did I get my very own accoustic. I got to meet such a nice person. Praise the Lord.

Pray for Live concert. praying that many lives will be saved. good nite guys! =)

cycling, cycling and more cycling.

haha.. Yes! we went cycling today. We as in rangers. haha.. it was fun, but I am super tired, and my back is sching from all that hunching. haha.. 25km. very far lehs. haha.. but it was enjoyable la. sweating it out and fellowshipping a lil here and there. It was fun. Thank God for holding the rain for us, and giving us safety. although, delson did cut his hand, and there were some mini 'accidents' along the way, we are all still safe and alive! haha.. PTL! so, that's once step closer to out cycling merit. yay! but will have to find some time to write the reports. that is always the problem with us. haha..do the pract and then too lazy to do the theory. hee.. =D bad bad habit.

yesterday, for cell, gave my testimony about me getting into SA. so many pple are happy for me. it is such a wonderful feeling to know that pple are happy for you and rejoicing with u in your joys. and also knowing that there are always pple praying for you.

JM is facing some horrific moments in her life.haha.. actually, it's not la. but for the person gg thru it, mayb it is. I dont know, I've never been thru it. =D hee.. JM, dont worry, I will always be here if u need someone. we are JMs rmbr? haha.. I know I've been busy and cant talk to u as often as b4. but I will try to make it a point to meet u every week ok? if not, at least once a fortnite? haha.. miss u!

alrightey, I will not talk about the bad part of yesterday. if u wanna know, jus ask me la. haha.. I am too lazy to type, and I just wanna put it away for now. at least for the weakends. haha.. tmr got church! yay! cant wait.

things are getting better!!

Had class outing to plaza sing today. Hamidah's first visit! wow! haha.. only 2 pple couldnt make it. it was great! haha.. I think I am beginning to love my class and love SA. haha..Praise the Lord. I am adjusting much faster as compared to sec1. PTL for that. and today was a goooood day. haha..

It's so wonderful starting everyday with Praise and Worship. It makes so much difference. =) It is just so wonderful to feel that things are getting better and feel so blessed. I dont know how to describe everything, but I just feel so blessed. of course still gotta adjust a bit, but I think things are getting much better. Thank God! =)

and know what? I met 2 other pple today who were from my pri sch! there was this warm feeling inside to see pple whom I have not interacted with for soo long! haha.. these 2 guys were like, my pri 3 friends I think. haha.. how cool is that?! lol..

some shout outs!:

zelig: thank you so much for your pm. It made my day. =)

wz: thanks for everything. take care yeah..

jm: I miss you!! see u tmr! haha.. then I can see u in that camouflage suit. hee =D

official 1st day at SA

well, I must say I made some friends, got around a lil more, and got to buy the uniform. It was a rush to meet the supplier jus b4 flag raising, but thank God for daddy. He drove me to school, picked up the supplier who lives nearby, and dropped me off at school.

The skirt was too long, so I had to fold it. felt so weird. but no choice mah. at least I didnt stand out in my blue cedar uniform. haha.. honestly, I was quite offended when someone asked me if I was from commonwealth. but oh wells, these kind of mistakes do happen. As long as I am a cedarian at heart, that's all that matters yeah?

My goodness. SO MANY familiar faces in SA. From pri sch, from sec sch, friend's friends, etc. thank God for EVERYTHING. well, my day, all in all was pretty alright. But I dont know why I felt like crying when I was making my way home. same old adapting syndrome? I dont know. but one thing i know for sure, i am not looking fwd to pe and taf. haha! But if I dont die, ok lor.. lol. The stress seems to be getting back to me already. like, so many things la. I dont know how to verbalise it. nvm. I know I am in God's plan.

I dont wanna go on. i think I should just stop thinking, and just do the things I have to do. JC career is too short for me to think too much yeah? Well, thank God I have my daddy, mummy, kor, wz korkor, zelig, JM ruying, lio, etc etc..

JM: I am missing u so much already. I cant exactly be myself when I am there without u. haha.. pple are jus so different. but we will all survive somehow rite? ok. till next time, later~

SAJC.. God's promise, fufilled.

yes. As almost the whole world knows cuz I told them, I have been accepted into SA! what are my emotions now? well, to sum it all up, REAAAAAALLYY blessed and nervous. ha! well, I feel super lost at the moment. I am sure things will settle down and I will grow to love the school. I am so so so so so sure that this is God's plan. not only was He stretching my faith, He had it all planned such that everything was JUST NICE. just b4 I bought my uniform, SA called. Just when I was feeling that TP was still not the place for me, SA called. just when I decided to leave it ALL in HIS hands, SA called. isnt our God just so amazing? this time, my faith has been stretched a great deal. and I have learnt that with God, all things ARE possible. =D Praise be to God.

Ruying: camp is never easy, but it's the bond with the pple that makes the camp rock so much. and personally, it was the encounter with God nightly as well.

Elhannah: oh ya. thanks for the reminder dear! know what? during the camp, we built a bridge and tower out of mere wood and ropes. pple climbed on it ok! dont play play. haha.. I must say, we did even better then the guys. ok la, not we say one la. but the guys did an awesome job too! =D AJs rock! rock on man!

alritey, I feel so bad that I made my dad run around just now going all over sg to buy the SA uniform when he is already so busy. Thank God for my daddy. without him, I wouldnt have learnt so much. learnt about what? everything in general la. =) tmr gotta rush to meet the supplier to get the uniform jus b4 school so I wont stand out in my blue uniform (no matter how cool) in a sea of whites. hahaha.. I am praying for courage to make new friends, keep a positive attitude towards my 'loss-ness' and to quickly settle down so I can start with CCA and studying. haha.. It's not that I am eager to study. but I am eager to get my JC career started and ending. haha!

please keep me in ya prayers yeah? love u guys. thanks and take care!

oh ya. btw: SO MANY PPLE FROM CEDAR IN SA. goodness! and yes, thank God for ken also. it's so nice to see familiar faces. although saw one face that I didnt wanna. it's ok la. not same class neways. lol. later guys~

Advanced Junior Training Camp (AJTC), yeah!

ok, I think I only told JM that I will be going to camp. yup. another training camp. In my opinion, it was tough at times but on the whole it was SPLENDID! haha.. fun too. The prescence of God could be felt during the council fires at night. and God used the pastor to speak into my heart. at that point of time when the pastor told me what God wanted me to know, i couldnt help but weep. It was something like, i know it was a problem yet I never really saw it as a problem? ok, I bet no one knows what I am saying now. nvm.

I just broke camp at about 2.30pm. haha.. graduation was so cool! haha.. AJTC really showed what we are made of. well, ok, our presentation was very screwed up. BUT, that was only one screw up out of the millions of other skits, cheers, yells, song, etc etc.. haha.. COOL! great job AJs! I really pray that our friendship will last. In fact, this time, there was already a bond there cuz many pple in AJTC were the same as the pple who went to last years JTC.

just came back from fetching elliot from RR in church. saw many pple. serene is growing prettier and prettier! my goodness.. life's jus not fair. haha! oh wells, and during RR fall out parade, Rayvin was like watching and the expression on his face was like 'I rmbr doing this once' haha... it was cool. then saw bryan. He spoke to me as if he were so much older then me. haha.. asking me to study hard, which sch I am in, etc etc. well, it was cool. have not really spoken to him like, SPOKEN to him for some time.

Well, I really thank God for the many friends He has put in the path of my life. although some of these friends we seldom see, or we are just 'hi-bye' friends, they are still crucial to some point in our lives. haha..

oh ya! last night, during camp, out dutch oven choc cake and lasagnia ROCKED! haha.. like TOTALLY ROCKED!!! lol.. uncle sandy said our cake was 'the best cake in the world' yeah!! my dear falcons, dont give excuses ok. it's not jus bout the choco. haha.. =D Bobcats, well done! we got our Gold medal once again! indeed we have reached our goal! haha.. yeah!

may our friendships last forever and may we remember all that we have learnt in the camp. see u all next year! haha! love ya all.. It's been a great time.

a visit from kor..

yupps.. my kor came to visit last nite. kor, xing ku ni le. haha.. he came to visit and in the end he had to give conrad 'tuition' haha.. Thank God for that tho. but he was already so tired then still stayed up with us till 1+am before he went to meet lio. we went for supper mah. then this morning I almost coma. haha..

well, it was definitely a good time spending time with kor. It has been such a long time since the last time we ate together. (as i recall) we didnt eat dinner together, but had supper.

haha.. I wonder how daddy's doing. He has sch till 10pm this evening. then for the past few weeks he sleep very lil also. really worry for his health and feel like forcing him to go and sleep. but there's no way I can do that is there? haiz~ what to do?

today was another boring day. oh wells, just one more dead boring day to go. haha.. seriously, I'd rather be having a full timetable. lol. went with Jm to TM just now. we were so down after chinese. like depression man. haha.. kidding la. but, we were feeling so down and tired. but an ice cream healed all that! =D it's so nice to be able to see JM 5 days a week again. haha..

yesterday, had guitar pratice. I think I was the only one from the 2nd intake who went. then others just join yester. but cuz of JM I went. one word, FUN! haha! It was quite stressful to play during ensemble to think these pple I am playing with have been practicing for at least 2 months and I, a newb was playing with them. haha.. but it was so totally fun. =) JOIN GUITAR! next mon, going with them for the guitar exchange prog. cant wait! haha.. I join them for one day and now I am going on an outing?! haha.. how cool's that? lol. thank God la. if not for JM I think I will just be bumming around with nothing to do.

now, the dilema. to desire SA still or to remain content with Tp. cuz frankly, I am content. but I dont know if this is what God really wants for me. I guess I will know by the end of this week. have been praying. pray along! =)

TAKE CARE YOU ALL!!

Cycling and Orientation 2

ok, cycling. It was SUPER tiring. haha.. when we made the wrong turn I couldnt take it le. the terrain was just too tough for unfit me. haha.. I almost fainted. <- THIS IS NOT AN EXPRESSION! yes! I nearly fainted as in u know, vision blurred, heat rate speeded up loads and I find it hard to breathe etc etc? yeah. but thank God, after taking a sweet and drinking so much water, felt much better. thank God for aunty julie and kor.if not, I dunno what happen liaos. haha..
