haha. i'm back. bet u guys missed me =DDDDD (pls do not call me egoistic for i have been greatly influenced by none other than...SARAH CHAN WEI QI!)
nvm. camp, arc chalet, leaders retreat have all been a great experience for me. all in different ways of course.
let's start with camp!
camp was fun. it was just amazing how God has touched so many people in camp. i was watching from the back of the hall all the time. seeing how people get touched, get slained etc. it was real cool. but i felt envious of them at the same time. i wanted to get touched by the Holy Spirit and all. but God had another plan for me.
before camp ended God spoke to me in a very gentle and still quiet voice, explaining to me why i wasn't touched like the others. and i understood from there. it was just so amazing and i believe that it was the best way to get touched by God. i mean. for me it wouldn't be any different if i went through all the big bang woo lala and then walk out felling all airy fairy with WOW in my head but nothing else has changed.
somehow.. i have a feeling God wants me to do something for Him, but i'm really scared and i dun dare to listen. it's scary....
anyway...to summarise...CAMP WAS A BLAST!
next. arc chalet
sad to say..i missed all that beach photo taking on the first day cos i had camp. but i dun really regret not leaving camp early cos i got to see ivan make a fool out of himself. haha...it's ok ivan you know we still love u =)
we had a nice movie marathon. at least i watched everything this time. we watched chicken little, just like heaven, the eye 10, saw, i do i do and constantine i think. haha. can't remember anything else we watched. i was touched by my darling head. she remembered my birthday! haha. she bought me this nice chocolate cake. so shiok. i had 2 chocolate cakes for my birthday this time. i love them. at least they know i dun like fruit cakes. haha..they were so hmm....i thought they forgotten my birthday or smth. haha. but no la...that's why i was pleasantly surprised when they got me a cake halfway tru something. so touched =) and to think i opened the fridge and saw a cake box there but didn't think anything...then again..i was blur as well when my family organised a surprised birthday party for me. haha...conclusion?? i'm blur.
LEADERS RETREAT rocked the most of all though. haha. it was both FUN and spiritually FULFILLING! double the F!
we went to this damn uluated beach la. sembawang beach i think. barely anyone was there. we had a meaningful time of devotion which was really appropriate for me la - "rejecting the praises of men" and yea. we hada fun time of playing volleyball. which i had no balls or idea how to play. i think i was trying to get away from the ball. quite scary. anyway. halfway tru the game we spotted a school of fishie swimming and pastor dave suggested we go fishing. HAHAHAHA. that was HIGHLY amusing. seeing how ian and joash went into the sea with a VOLLEYBALL net as a fishing net. haha. well. God called us to be fishers of men. so...as u can guess we din catch any fishies =) but i had a fun time playing buaya ball with ian, grace teo, cheryl tan, sarah, deb, chia ying. haha. ian was the only guy. thus the name - buaya ball. it's something like touch rugby. except the ball flies really high and far and it's more fun =) we get to do a victory dance after each score. haha. anwyay...we headed down for paintball =)
i loveeee paintball. haha. i think it was WAY COOL! i think it's something i'll never forget! i was in team A. pastor dave's team. the team comprised of all IJ people haha. we had deb and sarah - st nicks girls. joash - innova jc (IJ), pastor dave...err..ok. non-ij person and ME! really cool. felt like darth vadar. you could hear yourself breathe. and shooting your target is something really fulfilling!!! haha. it was really scary to have to take over pastor dave's position on the bridge too! but i was too small to be seen la. haha. i was almost killed by the barrel there though. at least i can proudly declare that i wasn't shot =) ahhaa.. but that's also partly because i kept hiding. amy scared the hell outta me. she's one fierce cat. MEOW! haha. forgive me amy. but u really remind me of a cat. but cats are nice =) so there. u know i still love u loads =)
we had the usual stuff, worship, plans for 2006 etc. worship was damn nice. we were a smaller group, but somehow it seemed more family-ish. even if most of the people there weren't close to me and all. but still. it was a very nice cosy feeling =) I felt God telling me some stuff. i'm not sure if it's Him or me, but i dunno. it cleared some personal stuff for me and it was real good after that.
i dunno, but i feel that Leaders Retreat grew my faith more. i supposed it's cos we had to put it down in action since we're leaders if yf now. and well. praying out loud no longer makes my face hot anymore and i can pray better. i was afraid of praying with the other leaders before yf but i joined them anyway, and it was GREAT i tell you. even though i was tired and all i din feel a wee bit tired during worship after that and yea..it was GREAT! i could just worship =) long time since i last worshipped like that but i know it can still be better. God rocks!!!! aiya...God just did something that i don't know how to put in words la. haha. nvm. i know, God knows can already =D
so there you go. my life as it was during the past week =) all consecutively happening. love u loads!
hahaha. and as amy always go.
gotta go darlings. kiss kiss!
