i'll be a fool to give up cause the goal is near br>
yupp... been having some diff periods.. and am still having.. mostly gta do with family and school... oh well..
on to happier topics! yep just went to aloha chalet to do cip with mostly my class peeps~ 9 of us sb2-ers and sk, cat, grace and jess, and 4 really nice arts girls, and 2 other guys, cal and joel~ yup!
it's for the salvation army, social work yahs~ yupp heard of yellow ribbon project? yup these women and their children who went are separated from the man of the fams, locked behind bars =(
so anyways the main purpose is to teach them values they need to pull thru these hard periods , and to allow the mums and their children to bond beta thru playing games tgt...
so last night after sch we all rushed off to pasir ris.. huimin chun, randy and i went to century square to collect the cake from coffee bean~ and suprise! i met didi! hahaz~
oh we bought the chesse sampler~ so it's like 4 slices of 5 diff flacours of cheesecake. cofee, norm, oreo, fruit and nuts, and choc chip i think~ lol~ yea really nice! over the night someone hungry 'stole' 3 slices~ lol~yahs...
when we reached, we started drawing name tags for ourselves~ and 'decorating' our hands with the great variety of markers~ yupp~ then we had telematch, where we were spilt into groups, to play 6 diff games at 6 stations.. the purpose was to help this 'Mr. Lucky' get back his family, who left him cause of his gambling habits.
yeas.. so 6 stations, fulfilling 6 values: acceptance -where we befriend a beggar, self-worth - where i got jailed by a ghost and she would only release me if my group came up with 10 good points abt me, forgiveness - where i starred mr lucky's daughter lulu~, 2nd chance - where we had this trolley and we had to tow pple in (childhood!), encouragement-where we cheered on our group while passing a hula hoop thru while holding hands, and patience!- where i got blindfolded and was guided around by pple~ yupp~ these values wre supposed to help the families deal with their dads and husbands in prison~
after that, we bbqed marshmellows! yeahs and chilled by the pool, and sang birthday songs to jieying and christie~ yeahs.. after showering we went to our rooms~ sb2 girls shared a room! yahs chun, me, sarah and christie chared the beds, while huimins and yiling slept on 3 sleeping bags thick sleeping bags!
hahaz~ so we just crapped thru the night, eating cheesecake, chips and marshmellows~ hahaz! chun actually ate cheesecake! achievement! yeahs! hahaz` yeah den we just went on like that for 2 hours~ hahaz~ ended up laughing so badly even though we turned off the lights and settled to sleep~ chun wwas over hyper, think it must be the sudden calorie rush` lol...
morn, we all woke up quite grouchily~ haah who wouldn't? yeap finished up the cheesecake too~ and discovered that 2 slices were missing.. were supposed to be for sk, cat and jie.. and so we started getting ready our games. there were 5 stations, mine was dog-and-bone, with waterbombs! how cool! lol~ yupp and there was blow wind blow, spider web, drawing session, and some obstacle course where we had to throw balls at cans~ yeap... had alot alot of fun~ yahs~ and i got really really wet!
hahaz yupp it all ended too soon... we had debriefing, then headed off to the playground which is damn cool kayys! super colourful, all the colouful balls, lol~ relieve our childhood~
yeap... went to deli to have lunch and slept the entire one hour journey home~ hahaz yayys finally!

Oh last day of the long hols alr! Time flies huh? Yah.. This morn, went to some function room at Bukit Timah plaza.. We had zone prayer meeting.. One word to describe it: amazing!!
Like totally! The presence of God was so so tangible.. we all fell to our knees, weeping, crying out loud in tongues... when the pastor laid hands on us we all fell... it was supernatural! I was thinking' what power is this ?' it's beyond words... I couldn't stop crying, the presence of God just touched me so deeply...
This meeting was meant to renew the fire in us to bring revival to our schools and campuses... and the fire did come.. We prayed hard for revival in our various schools, and for God to send us, to use us to bring forth this revival...
And God's presence swept through the entire room like a big gust of wind!
The song we sang today really described it all!!
The lyrics:
I came to the gathering of the people of the Lord And found my way among them to His throne I needed to return to the altar of my God To renew again my covenant with Him
And there I build an altar to His name And realized my life Could never be the same And then the fire of revival came sweeping through my Soul And I touched the holy presence of my God
Come build an altar Unto the Lord Return to worship and hear His word And then the fire of revival came sweeping through my soul And I touched the holy presence of my God...
After the prayer meeting, I went to cb to meet qiu and jc AGAIN. Hahaz~ HAPPY SEVENTEEN AH QIU!! Yahs.. met a lot of pple.. ian, wee leong, weijie, kathereen, junming.. yahs... best of all.. I had surveys to be done and I actually forgot all abt it!! Grrr.. hahaz~ yahs I did have some productive time ~ =)
