well well. I'll just begin with Friday. I started packing my stuff for the camp at like 4? when I'm supposed to meet Wynee for lunch at ljs and meet at the shrine at 6pm. haha, so toppled things over, knocked stuff down and finally got the bag done. Met Miss Australia who is of course the one and only sebby, clare and ben. We walked to church after they're done with their fastfood. The topic was something like the teletubies trend years back and how they could talk at night and talismans were found in them. The moment I saw St Theresa's, I went WOW.It was so beautiful. All of us went to the guy's dorm, or rather the guy's hall first cause the girl's were used for another session. Ice breakers first and the night session where we were shown on powerpoint, Pope John Paul II holding on to the cross with the most tender expression. "CLING TO JESUS". You know, seeing the pope, how frail he was, but how strong, how strong a believer he was touched me deeply. I AM GOING FOR THE WORLD YOUTH DAY '08 sydney, period! First night, we sat on the canteen's tables and talked. Isis came back after her A's. Slept at around 2. I was so bored, tired but not sleepy. I tried yoga-ing in the dark and was stared by Jasmine, Germaine, Trudy and Isabelle. Okay, so I landed on their matresses and let Trudy braid my hair. I woke up at 6.10am the next day and went out at 6.35. Sorry cornelius, haha. It was way tiring. Imagine some weirdo with a huge bag taking the bus at like a quarter to 7 on a Saturday morning to harbourfront centre and taking NEL to hougang. Went to my Dad's reopening. It was fun cause maode ok, not maode, Gerald, Cher, Jer and I were always around the reception. We had to say "Hi, would you like to sign in?" When they're leaving, "Here's your doorgift and we're actually having this facial- skin brightening treatment for $30 with the usual price at $98, you'll also get a cream hand cream worth $16 and a trio kit if you get this $30 voucher" Gosh, imagine repeating that to nearly all my dad's customers. Good thing Wel went. LOLTook the taxi back with Aunty Anne, Jer and maode, Gerald. Ate some vege pizza and Dad fetched me back. The church though beautiful was quite ooh-lu. They were having some session then and I waited for around 25 minutes. 2 columboriums, I walked around each of them. Yes, I must have been out of my mind. I circled around St Theresa's statue at least 5 times before I met Manuel. He cycled all the way from Hougang. Do you know wth is the church? Near habourfront! He said he went up Mt Faber too. Waited, finally con opened the door. Sorry, again. hahaha. That night was way fun. Okay, except maybe Fr Fred was too generous with the oil during the anoiting. hahaha. Eyes, forehead, ears, mouth, chin, heart o.O, hands were all slapped with oil. Yes, yes. Amanda, Charmaine's cousin, which makes her my cousin cousin (We'll do without the 's) and I had one moronic night. We were behaving so retardedly. Laughing so hysterically and Clre walked in just when I was laughing to hard and ended up looking like I'm hyper-ventilating. We made my the conducting joke about the xmas kiss (: LOL Super funny. As well as my star pillow. Sorry Vivienne, rmbr the star you gave me last christmas? I brought it to camp and used it as a pillow and heh, the girls used it as a ball and played captain's ball in the hall while I was afk, eh, wrong while I was not in camp. I was like, throwing the star up cause the ceiling's high. "Catch a falling start and put it in my pocket." I literally stuffedthe star into my pocket. The star's so huge and my pocket's like eh. LOL Amanda went into fits, opps, laughing fits I mean. HAHAHA.okay la, I gotta stop typing now. The service learning people are coming and everything's a mess. So I'll continue tonight. (:
Granted at 2:47 PM
The Water Underneath
Tomorrow is not a promise; but a chance.
Psalm 105:4-5 (NIV)
"Look To The Lord And His Strength;
Seek His Face Always.
Remember The Wonders He Has Done."
1 Samuel 16:7 (NIV)
"The Lord does not look at the things man looks at.
Man looks at the outward apperance, but the Lord looks
at the heart."
1 Corinthians 15:19 (NIV)
"If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are
to be pitied more than all men."
1 Corinthians 13:4-7,13
"Love is patient and kind;
it is not jealous or conceited or proud;
love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritatable;
love does not keep a record of wrongs
love is not happy with evil,
but is happy with the truth.
Love never gives up;
and its faith, hope and patience never fail."
"Meanwhile these three remain:
faith, hope and love;
and the greatest of these is love."
