:: Children's Camp 2006 ::

lemme start with sun, 19th nov, my sis came back for a short break. i was asleep when she reached home. next morning i had to wake up early for church so i missed her too. we shifted location for service, so i was quite worried she could not find her way. i forgot to bring my hps also. haiyo. after service rushed off for a quick lunch with my family n rushed back to DCB for children's camp meeting. my mom was quite pissed with me for that.

there were foreign speakers (dunno y i didn't c them at the camp at all) and Auntie Daphne shared abt passing the gospel down the generation. she mentioned that word so many times i couldn't count. after that had a quick briefing of what was to take place when the camp starts. then i went home.

mon
chihiro came to my hse to send her resume n to chat on msn n go on friendster. haiz. thought she would zi dong when i'm abt to sleep, but nv leh. i wonder if she earns her income by.... (shhh...)

tue
after work went to changi airport to send my sis off. i reach first, then waited for my mom, then waited for my dad n sis to come from home. i knew they were going to be late. (zai zai la) had dinner at the Soup Restaurant.



it was a rushed dinner. didn't digest the food and we have to run for the shuttle bus to get to the budget terminal.

thur
Children's camp! brought a big bag to work. after work went to HBF to take bus to sentosa. =) applied for Islander card. wanted to renew, but i didn't realise that their idea of renewal is continue from when my card expired. so rugi! so it's a new application. $19.50 leh. haiz. have to go in 7 times to make the card worth. =P

was quite blur on the first day, panic cuz i lost my way n it was dark n there was construction going around the campsite. dangerous leh. any worker can jump out on me n drag me into the contruction site n *eeeek!!* =S went up to my room to put down my stuff, then had my da-bao-ed dinner. went up for session. i didn't get to know my group yet. wah i didn't expect to learn something new. Nicodemus was mentioned 3 times in John n the speaker drew a link to his progress. the message is: Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

Supper time. my group dispersed. =( they washed up n went to bed. camp parents got debriefing. slept around 12am. didn't really sleep well, i rem waking up at 3+am cuz i heard sounds. the kids sleeptalk man.

fri
woke up around 7am.. went to work at 7.30am.. still very early. good. =) went to harbourfront to eat roti prata n teh tarik =P took my time to go to office.

after work same thing, went to sentosa. but this time a bit faster cuz i didn't have to apply for the sentosa card. the kids r very friendly.. they would come n talk to me when they see me eating alone. so nice of them!

had night walk after praise n worship n dance prac. wah i was wearing killer heels man. killed my feet. but i had to bear with it lor, i nv bring other shoes.

sat
yay dun need to go to work. joined the kids in morning PT. i met a few girls who remind me of myself when i were their age. =X

oh forgot to mention, my group is Transformers! it was the first thing that came to my mind when uncle John asked the camp parents to come up with a name for our groups. my group name had to start with T.

we had Quiet Time together. went through a chapter from the book of Esther. so cute, there was a question in the activity book that ask for Queen Esther's age. we couldn't find the answer.

then we had afternoon session (Naaman who had leprosy) n lunch. took a short nap during rest time. made kites for art & crafts but the weather didn't permit us to go fly kite.

then we gathered in groups to discuss the skit for the night. i went off around 5.30pm to go church to help set up for PRC n for MCG meeting for plans for Tanjung Balai 2007. wah i think i went back at the right time. after setting up the booth for PRC we went in for prayer n prep, Dallas shared abt remembering our calling, even though we dun seem to be doing anything related to our calling right now, but don't be discouraged. felt like the message is for me.

went to DCB to meet hannah n persis. outside the DCB there was a cat who affectionately rubbed against me.. i felt so happy.. until persis told me that the cat is just due for the mating season. if not for the season she wouldn't be so affectionate to me. =(

went to mac to meet Gail n to start our discussion. manage to come up with a plan. tired. sigh. went back to camp. i was just in time to catch the performances! my grp did well! Calvin was very funny when acting God the judge. "i'm sorry.... no wait why should i be sorry?" "a few years ago u sang in the church choir.. i can't remember when.. no wait, of cuz i can remember." hahahaha. then another grp acted well too! esp Joshua.. he's wonderful, man! in the end his grp won, but my grp came in 2nd! =)

Been reading a book i bought from Doulos. it's very good. =) stayed up to write finale notes to my kids n chat with baoying n kelvin n nic. i guess "last nights" of camps help to build friendships. =) slept at 4am. woke up at 7+am. late for breakfast. =X packed up n took grp photos n went back to church for service. performed the dance at the end of the service. i thought we would perform early then i can sneak back to youth service for a while. then there was reception after service. =) n prize presentation. TRANSFORMERS WON!!!!!!!~!!!! seriously i nv had the experience of my group winning. i was overjoyed. =D took a last grp photo, without me inside, but it's ok. i'm the photographer. =)

:: spiritual attack ::

i'm down with cold, just seen a doc today, for my insect bites too.. Persis n Suzanne also caught the bites..

been feeling really down for the past 2 weeks.. i really shouldn't let the devil put me down n making me feel so terrible. been feeling breathless due to stress at work.. it only happens once in a while.. sometimes i dun even much work to do.

i ought to rejoice n praise God n let Him make miracles happen, but i guess i was too stressed over the tj balai trip, depended too much on human strength n wisdom to get things done. they usually dun happen the way i wanted, n so frustrations kick in.

think i struggle too hard. very little faith.

actually i am very blessed during the trip, but i let my mood get the better of me that i overlooked the blessings.. so i hope it won't happen again.

:: jai yen yen part 2 ::

actually today wanted to complain more.. cuz yesterday had a bad day at work. but some things happened that cheered me up, so i shall describe the happy things.

i also cheered up when i met m'kk to plan the coming tj balai trip.

was craving for dairy food while at work. then when i met my mom for dinner she suggested getting bubble tea. She seldom buys that lor! i ordered strawberry pudding milk bubble tea with pearl. =)

decided to go to the basement of Punggol Plaza to see what happened to the shop space since the budget shop moved up to replace Hang Ten (i was wondering how long Hang Ten can last here *evil grinz*) And GUESS WAD! to my pleasant surprise (i wasn't just pleasantly surprised la, i was jumping for joy) Cash Converter!! Thank God i dun need to travel all the way to Tampines to sell my printer! it's not open yet though. hope my mom can be 'auntie' enough to find out when it opens.

thank God also for helping me shit. me no-butt!

:: jai yen yen ::

i am having PMS. need to jai yen yen.

quite pissed these few days.

quite a large part is my fault.

i was supposed to email the ferry services company to reserve 10 seats, but i was unable to confirm because i didn't ask for the number of pple confirm going.
because of that some pple didn't know that i was asking for passport details. n so when he found out that his passport expired it was rather last min already. i dunno when it can get done.

my fault for not reminding her to send email to my other email address that i can access at work. from after prayer meeting till i got home i was super anxious la.

got her email. i finally just emailed Penguin. without his passport expiry date. praying hard.

really angry with myself for not doing this job well. if we can't all get on the same ferry i'm going to scream at myself.

i'm sorry but i just habitually think of the worst case scenario - so little faith!

:: new camera ::

wed bought a new Canon camera! it's the first Canon product i've ever owned! *looks around, confirms what is typed* it was a swift purchase, cuz last week i went to Funan to rekke already n found a shop that i wan to buy from. managed to get the complimentary gifts from the shop itself so that i dun need to go down to Canon to redeem them. they include 4 GP-2100 batteries + charger and a 1.0GB SD card! (if not 1.0 SD card it would be 512mb sd card + Canon camera case. i'd rather go for the bigger capacity card.)

thur brought my cam to work n took photos around my office area during lunch. fun =D

fri my dad came to pearl centre to pick me up. had dinner with my parents at Citylink mall The Asian Kitchen. ooh the Mushroom minced chicken noodles VERY NICE!!! the xiao long bao is ok la, but ex leh. walked to Marina Sq. my mom subscribes to Simply Her, so she got some redemption thing at the Women's Fair there. she got a perfume from the lucky dip n a spa voucher.
