- GRC Student Leadership Camp 2007 -

Broga Camp, Semenyih..my destination, my campsite. it was all the events that took place in this campsite. before going for the camp, i had different feelings about it..sometimes i felt so happy that i was going, and other times, i was like.."must go for the camp meh??" but in the end, i finally went for the camp!! and i can testify to this, "I DO NOT REGRET GOING FOR IT!!" =)

- My Wonderful Teamates -

before starting on the events that was held, i would just name to you the names of my group members...my group was called "Alpha", a really cool name, and it was consisted of 9 people, and they are:

Lydia, Ian Fan, Jaclyn, Grace, Joel, Jernlyn, Sayfyril, Crystal, Sher Wyn, and myself.

I really enjoyed working with all of them..especially when we had to make the raft for the pond rafting, also when we were doing the obstacle course!! and i got to know Ian Fan better, because we were in the same dormitory..=)

- Events and Agenda -

if i were to write about the camp, it would be very long..so to make things easier..i am just going to write the main events and activities that took place in the camp..starting from..Day 1

Day 1 : when we got at the campsite, we were told by uncle Fan that there was no electricity..and that when there is no electricity..there is no WATER!!! wow..how great was that?!! no electricity and water...time flew by..at 4 something..we the Alpha Group had to prepare dinner, so we did all the washing, cutting, carrying, peeling, slicing, soaking and cleaning!! i really had a good time...at 6 dinner was served!! at 8 we had our praise and worship..and while we were praying, worshipping, and praising...the lights came on...it was my first time worshipping God in the dark...it was pitch black..and the only light that could be seen..was the flashing of the lightnings across the night sky...at 12..an old day had passed and a new day arose...

Day 2 : it was all the planned activities that were held on the second day...we had the obstacle course, the flying fox and the pond rafting!! the only part of the second day i love most was when we made the raft and of course the pond rafting!! we really worked together to produce such a strong raft!! and we won 1st!!

Day 3 : it was the last day of the camp!! and so we had futsal, cheer presentation and prize giving!! and Alpha won champions!!

i did not regret going for this Leadership Camp!! because i ave learned much throught it...i have learned that we need to have unity and we need to work as a team...there is no such thing as one man show..we all need to depend on one another..and..i also learned that..we (man) can plan and decide..but it always God that will direct the path..i learned that dependance upon God is important. so i am really glad i went for it..and oh ya..i learned how to apply what i have learned in Royal Rangers!!

that is all about the camp!! i will try to get the pics as soon as possible!! good bye for now!!

God bless!!

Have a great day!! =)

SUNDAY + MONDAY = COZY AND LOVELY

it rained real heavily yesterday!! the church porch was flooded..everywhere I turned I saw pools of water..the worst thing was, I could not even get to go inside Kin Sun Restaurant because it was like a castle with a moat around it. after the rain, I could feel the coldness and cleanness of the air!! In addition to that, on Sunday, it was my first time stepping into a police station. We want to take picture but the girl's mother was scolding!! hehe..=)

today..being Monday..was even colder than yesterday..when Itook my bath today, the water was icy cold..it was like my parents placed ice cubes into the water, and as Iwas brushing my teeth..my knees were shaking. I was so cold.. i would never forget this experience! and will miss this kind of days..=)

- ALWAYS REMEMBER -

never look at what you've LOST
always look at what you've GOT
*give thanks in all circumstances* God bless! =)

L-O-V-E??!!

What is LOVE? Is it just a four letter word? or is it just puppy love?? something that we use it for everything?? the real meaning is this:

LOVE is actually an act of waiting instead of demanding

LOVE keeps on being friendly to people who aren't really friendly back

LOVE doesn't insist on becoming one of the popular crowds

LOVE doesn't lose its temper when a brother or sister spends too much time in the bathroom

LOVE doesn't hold grudges

LOVE doesn't think you are better than others

LOVE doesn't brag

LOVE keeps on expecting the best

LOVE loves at all TIMES!!

i have loved you with an everlasting LOVE!!

from today onwards...let is show LOVE!! =)

WONDERFUL FRIDAY!

PROTECT DESTROY

the worship was great, it was done very well, the sharing was wonderful and we had two speakers...and both shared about the same thing...how great our God is..

after chapel..someone drew and gave me a picture of a "UNICORN." it was very well done...and can't tell you guys who that someone is...

And the day ended with TRANSFORMERS!! i was suppose to watch transformers on Monday...but unfortunately..my commander could not get the tickets so we had to delay until..FRIDAY!!

And so yesterday he called up and told be he bought the tickets...at 8:40 he came to pick me up...and 9:00 was the movie..we had to get there in time!! how? yesterday my commander drove like Initial D...

and thank God we got there in time..he went in and we sat right in the middle of the screen...i was in the centre!! had such a wonderful view...

the show was really really good...and the sound system was so loud...that the floor was shaking...each time the robots fought..or walked...i could feel the floor move..

overall everything went well...and THANK YOU SO MUCH commander DESMOND!

God bless

HOW LONG IS "ETERNITY?"

Have you ever sat down one day..and thought about how long eternity is? What is eternity

like?

I will show you a simple illustration on what eternity is like..and how LONG it is...

Imagine there is a mountain, a mountain that is as high as Mount Everest...and you climb to the top of that mountain, and with a piece of tissue paper in your hand, you move the tissue across the mountain top once, causing tiny sand, gravel, and pebbles to fall off the mountain side...and you do that every year once...

you continue to do that every year once, sweeping off gravel, sands, and pebbles the mountain until the mountain is flattened like a plain...

eternity is still even longer than that...

that is a simple illustration of how long eternity is...and remember we are going to spend eternity with our Heavenly Father! Forever and ever!

God bless!

TIRING DAY!!

today...was one of my bad days...why? well, firstly..i had to wake up early..and i was so super tired..and the best thing was that the weather was so nice...it was cozy, the winds were howling left and right, and the sky was cloudy...i could not get up my bed..i went from one bed to another, until my mum scold me..=( anyway..i tored myself of the bed, and headed into the toilet...did everything that was needed and packed my stuffs. And the worst thing was that today was P.E (physical exercise)..i was tired and there was P.E...haihz...so went down, drank my milk, got into the car and headed to school! At 9, we went to the field and started our Football Training...before stretching..we had a match..so the idea of the game was, we had to run pass a few defenders, and get one of the cones at the opponents side. That game itself, took so much energy...but it was all worth while because we won by 5-4..haha..XD..as soon as the match was over, we went for our real training exercises...this training involved a lot of running..when training was over, we had our last match of the day...we had to play against one another..the sad news was we lost 4-2..haihz..and after 5 minutes of warm-down we went back to the class..

When i went back to class, my leg was so super pain especially at the shin, i could hardly walk, i was limping up and down. It was so painful that i had to use the deep heat rub to relieve the pain..but it was still painful...=(

After school, my leg was much better..there was still the pain...

Anyways that is all for today's painful and tiring day..haha

God bless!

DADDY'S DAY OUT!!

Hmm...today was a great day!! It was Father's Day today! Happy Father's Day to all the dad's out there..haha...XD

Ok..I went to church today...because the Royal Rangers was presenting something...after the presentation..we were given the oppoturnity to give out a special gift to all the fathers..it was fun...but some were like so eager to get the gift...their hands were everywhere..until i dropped the gifts..haihz..

When the presentation was over, I went for Sunday School...Teacher Edwin was the speaker and he spoke on friends and friendships...it was really good..enjoyed the msg..

When sunday school and service was over...I went for a meeting..and we took my dad out!! We went to SUBANG PARADE!!! haha...we wanted to eat in Delifrance!!! It has been a while since I ate in Delifrance and i missed the taste of the food!

We got there and we quickly headed into the Delifrance Shop because we were all so hungry, especially me..as usual..haha..we got our seats and sat down...called the waiter and we started ordering our food...I was busing watching the tv..and my mum order for me this dish and this dish was called......."DEVIL CHICKEN"..haha..it is actually de-vil chicken...but they forgot to put the hyphen...and so it was called devil chicken...XD

When the food arrived...I immediately took the fork and knife and started slicing the chicken...it was my first time trying a devil...chicken and it was a kinda new recipe...sorry, I did not take a pic of it..forgot to take my camera...it looked good..the dished was a combination of a big drumstick, curry sauce, and salad...

And after trying it...I have to say that the devil chicken rocked...especially the curry sauce..it was very different from out Malaysian curry sauce it, it was not made of santan instead it they used milk, so it was very different...after eating...we had deserts...and the desert was an ice cream.... it was purple in color...with chocolate on it...loved it...

after eating..btw my sister belanja my dad and also us too.. haha..thanks so much jie jie =) As soon as we had eaten our lunch..we went SHOPPING!! we went in and out of almost every shop..me and my dad was so tired..we had to sit on the bench...while my mum, and two sisters were walking up and down...looking for things to buy...haha..

Finally, after shopping for 3 hours..HOME SWEET HOME!!! XD

It was a indeed a yummy, tiring, happy day!

God bless,

MEETING THE PIPERS!

Hey guys! today was a wonderful day. A little bit of what happened today...hmm..today we went down to PJ because there were two very special speakers all the way from Brisbane, Australia..they were Tony and Aureole Piper. So at 12 noon, we left the centre and headed down to PJ..when we reached there...we got off the van and went to meet Aunty Catherine because we were to meet her at about 1. After the meeting..we went for chapel..it was the first time Klang joined PJ for their chapel...and it was good. I love the way the small children jumped and danced, and screamed, and sang! it just put a smile on my face to see what the children were doing...= ) When the praise and worship was over...it was a time of sharing..and the speakers, as mentioned before was Tony and Aureole Piper. It was my second time meeting them. I love the way Pastor Auroele Piper preached. I really had a wonderful time learning about how we should live our life...the Bible Scripture was (1 Timothy 4:12). and finally we had alter call...left PJ at around 4 and got back to the centre at 5! that is all...the end! haha..=D
