Hello (: Haven't bogged for AGES. Been extremely busy... But school's been great so far! :D Anyway, I suppose I should update.

Well, joined Board Games Club for a new CCA on mondays. (: Well, I'm pretty sad this term in the sense that I don't get to continue Spanish 102 'cause of clash in timing with fencing, and neither did I get to learn Japanese 101 since there wasn't space on the Wed classes ):

Anyway, been pretty pissed with the BGC recently. Lazy to type the details lah, but ask me and I'll let you hear my rants and complains (:

Haha, so much for updating. I've summarized the past 2 weeks of school! :D

Ooh! And I signed up for March YEP! :D Hope I'll get it, I can't wait! :D

Think I'm gonna quit YA after end of this year. No point lah, all my classes and CCAs timings clash with the guides activities and the holidays too. SIANZ. I miss the guiding activities! ):

Well, was lazy to blog. But I'll post up my conver with shurong (: It's basically the complaints of BGC.


cass. I have a dream, a song to sing. says:
haha anyway. about bgc
shurong says:
yeah

cass. I have a dream, a song to sing. says:
you know the np 45 event thingy?
then bgc's in it, then on friday, they told me im in the publicity committee
shurong says:
oh wow

cass. I have a dream, a song to sing. says:
i was like okay... then i was quite pissed with calvin cuz i brought my friends to the board games day thingy and he told me to throw my friends to someone else cuz they want to have a meeting
then i was like what??? then fine, i was a bit irritated lah, like my friends are not objects to be thrown around lah but fineee, i went for the meeting
then they decide to paint banner and the stupid game booth on sat afternoon at 2.30 in school
i pushed away my originally planned activities just so i can come for the painting session and guess what! oic - yingwen came at 3 plus, then we drove to fetch grace, the other girl cuz she had some bgc stuff in the morning then we drove round bugis area for an hour plus just trying to avoid the erp thing stupid calvin's idea. i was quite irritated lah, like 2 bucks only yingwen cannot afford meh?!?!
yeah yingwen was driving lah cuz he got family car and license already mah
then ah. things were done so inefficiently, we merely cut up boards and ended at around 9 plus lah
its like yingwen the oic and calvin the ic never do anything??? only grace and i and another girl queency who came to help did all the cutting, planning etc
then ah never mind, i still not so angry.
TODAY.
we agreed on sat night to meet at 8.30
i specifically woke up super early to come to school on time and guess what, only the three girls and this other guy who came to help arrived at 8 plus
8am yingwen msged me - oh shit i just woke up. I WAS LIKE WHAT!??!?!
shurong says:
omgoodness
cass. I have a dream, a song to sing. says:
somemore i was super tired lah, was staying over at my friend's house having fun i had to leave early to come and help out
then best ah. everything was with yingwen cuz he got car and we did at his house on sat night so we just left it there
he came at 9.30
WELL DONE LAH
we purposely wanted to meet earlier cuz grace and i had to leave early
and then the calvin IS THE BEST
HE CAME AT... 10:51
I ALMOST FELT LIKE BOXING HIS FACE ALREADY
then yingwen best. he was supposed to get white paint so we can paint today, HE DIDN'T. so he and calvin drove out to buy white paint and chalk ( so we can draw on the black banner ) and we made them buy breakfast for us
so while waiting the 3 girls played com for awhile etc, then we ate as we played
so we were playing when yw prodded us and nagged at us to start drawing
we were quite reluctunt but fineee we went to draw eventually
THE TWO GUYS HAD THE CHEEK TO TALK AND TALK AND TALK ABOUT PLAYING MAHJONG TO THE REST OF THE BGC PEOPLE AND TAKE THEIR OWN SWEET TIME TO CHEW THEIR FOOD LIKE COWS
then fineee, i still tolerate okay. then the stupid calvin came and sit next to the banner and posed in a buddha pose and thought he was very funny. the 3 of us were super pissed by then lah, we've been doing every single thing and the both of them never do anything lah somemore friday then come and tell us we're in the committee. okay then ah. i was quite pissed already. and the yw still can come
chewing and chewing on his stupid fillet as though he'll never finish it
then they sit there and use eye power and comment
shurong says:
i should scold calvin for you next time

i was so pissed i just said straight to calvin's face, if you're not going to help then go away
then calvin still can play and turn to yw and say eh you leh. i was so pissed lah. i just turned back to both of them and said. BOTH. they shut up and went away
wah lao, the 3 of us want to totally kill them already lah
then stupid calvin thinks his design for poster super beautiful we need to follow everything. but it made no sense to write ngee ann poly board games club when the event is in ngee ann poly! so we just shouted at them at i think they were quite shocked and had to give in
then we finish drawing we just left, didn't bother painting. so angry already lah
shurong says:
so did like calvin and yw apologise anytime after that?
cass. I have a dream, a song to sing. says:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I AM STILL PISSED ABOUT THAT
AND TO THINK THEY'RE THE OVERALL IN CHARGE AND THE IN CHARGE. FINE EXAMPLE THEY LED BY!

Hello (: Haha I figured I should blog since I haven't in like, ten thousand years or something already. Anyway, my holidays' been real fruitful! Just came back from HMS Leadership Training Camp! :D And! I realise I didn't blog about ODD Camp! Hmm maybe I'll do it later.

HMS Leadership Training Camp mon to wed!

IT WAS A BLAST! It was totally cool and fun! Haha not because the camp's good, but because God's been so so so good to me during the camp. He's brought in so many yfc people like Sheena Sheryl Esther Germaise Chantel and Shurong (at the last min!) and Ken as well! It's been so wonderful seeing Him in everything and everywhere! Firstly, there were the morning QTs together, although I didn't turn up on Wed morn 'cause woke up late :X

Monday.

I'm so amazed and so encouraged by how He just brought Christians in to pray together. Initially I thought there were just gonna be like 4 or 5 of us, then I brought Chantel 'cause she was in my group and she's in yfc too, then Sarah was brought in by who I don't know and Tong Xin by Esther. I was so shocked when I entered the room and there were about 10 of us who gathered in the tiny little master bedroom just to pray and share. It was so wonderful on Tues morning when Mon morning only had me and Sheryl and Esther and Sheena came later. Praise the Lord! :D Not only that, in this camp, I know I can answer to God that I've stand firm for Him. On Monday night there was this Confidence walk activity, and I went with Lyana. Haha that silly girl! A frog touched her hand in one of the stations and she practically shrieked so loudly the entire building could hear her! Haha but I think I might have shriek like that or even louder! So anyway at one of the stations we were supposed to do pole dancing. -.- Thank God so much for giving me the courage to stand up and say I can't and won't do things like this - pole dance. It wasn't whether I was the dancer or the pole that mattered, it was the fact that such an immoral dance was not glorifying to God's name that mattered that most. I had to keep refusing, honestly, I was a little afraid, but God constantly reminded me that I'm a Christian who's not living for herself but for the Almighty One.Thank You Father, for the courage!

Tuesday.

Well, on Tuesday night, I was so embarrassed! Haha backtrack a little, the camp's theme was Superheroes and for my group, we were the Powerpuff! :D Okay anyway, I was embarrassed because each group apparently was supposed to have a mascot. Guess who in my group became it? Yup, me. AND, I BECAME BUBBLES! It wasn't so bad at first. But when I went down, only my group remembered to have a mascot?! So like, I was totally shy and embarrassed and I've got serious stage fright problems and I just cried when Esther came round to say I was so cute with my two ponytails and my cape. Okay not really cry cry, I guess I was trying to keep the fear in too much, till the tears just flowed out 'cause I was really just too scared. After that, I hid in a corner till everyone came down and guessed what. When it came round to the groups doing the cheers, Jiafeng and Yiwen I think pushed me out of my corner and insisted me to lead! I was so scared please!!! Then people started to clap?! I was like, oh my goodness, what am I supposed to do?! And since everyone already started clapping and got people like Germaise go and cheer I just had to lead, didn't I? Yeah so I just tried to lead, all the while trying to ignore others' presence though it was extremely hard. Well, then Jiafeng insisted that I say a few words before we started our performance during the campfire. I was so scared again! STAGE FRIGHT. Honestly, I don't think our group performance was really good, but at least we tried to do something different from the usual skits (: I'M PROUD OF THE POWERPUFF PERFORMANCE! Haha especially since it brought much joy to us - the 12 people doing the stupid hearts thingy on stage! Haha just the thought of it is funny enough, thank God we didn't do that eventually, I might have died laughing! Anyway I was so afraid that the fencers will spot me at the camp in the Bubbles costume! I hope they didn't! Haha in the day we had amazing food race! Quite fun (: Haha the Maxwell Food Centre station was the most memorable. 'Cause I saw the guy station master (don't know what's his name) reading a magazine and he left the page open to the Wu Zun article. So naturally I signalled for Lyana to come over. But he caught us peeping and closed the magazine. Haha but the funniest thing was when he flipped to the cover, Wu Zun was on the cover page!!! Hahahahaha! Haha okay the story doesn't end here. When we were on our way back to NP, we were on the same train and bus back. So after a while, there was an empty seat on the bus, and he offered it to me. I declined 'cause I thought we were going down already. Then he kept tempting me by saying things like, "Really ah, really ah? You don't want I sit already okay." Finally I spotted the magazine in his hand. So I suggested that he let me read the magazine and I'll let him sit on the seat. Then he revealed to me that he shared the magazine with another station master. The stupidest thing was his suggestion!!! He said he'll let me read, but can only read half because he bought half of the magazine. And he said... He bought the bottom half of the magazine?! He'll let me see the bottom half where it's Wu Zun's body... But not his face! Hahaha so stupid right!!! I laughed like mad lah, So stupid please!!! Then Yong Sheng was worst. He asked me if I was crazy over Wu Zun, so I said no, just see good-looking so want to see what's the article about. Then they say I see Wu Zun good-looking like looking at object like that! And they say Wu Zun's a 2 bucks object ): But it was still so stupid and I just kept laughing with Chantel for at least 10 bus stops I think! Haha, they were pretty amazed at my non-stop laughing skills! Like I hyperventilate and then paused for a few seconds, then they just had to say something to make me laugh like how I'll confirm laugh again after I rest for a few seconds etc! Terrible leh, the both of them!!! Haha okay lah.Then after the campfire, there was the usual disco/clubbing/partying thingy again. I am so glad and thankful that God placed 4 other loving and strong Christians, Sheryl, Sheena, Esther and Shurong with me! Thank You Father (: It was so encouraging when songs with bad lyrics came on and Esther and Sheena covered my ears and told me, "No, wrong, cannot hear." It was so sweet of them! :D Thank you loves! And I was so disgusted when Sheena pointed out to me that when the one of the girls danced alone on the table (it was the stage for the night) that the circle surrounding her were all guys. Indeed, immorality is seeping faster and deeper into this world. I'm so glad the 5 of us stood together in one corner of our own. But the GLs and Wayne tried to grab Esther and forced her on stage. Sheena and I pulled her back like crazy, it felt, for a moment as though it was a battle between the devil and us Christians and God. It was so scary. I almost died when Wayne carried Esther up on stage by force! Poor Esther. Some other GL tried to persuade Sheena and I to go up and accompany Esther, and for a moment, I was tempted. Tempted to go up there to 'help' Esther. But thank God Sheena refused! And I realised that that wasn't the way to help Esther. After a while the song ended and we pulled Esther back down. She cried and hugged us like mad. We held hands and ran out of the place for a little breathing space. I was so sorry, but I realised that if I've gone up there, I might have gotten into the influence and that'll be VERY VERY VERY BAD.I really really thank God for placing the other 4 of them in the camp too and that made us a lot a lot a lot stronger. Well, after the 'Esther episode', other GLs still came along and tried to pull us up. But we just kept pulling back whoever who was pulled. And it felt like a real battle, fighting for God or losing and giving in to the enemy - satan disguised in so many different forms. But it was such an amazing night, seeing the unity of Christ and His love so strongly binding us together. When one of the GLs finally came over and said forget it, she won't touch us anymore, in that instant I knew Satan was once again defeated by Christ. Christ has, afterall, won the victory for us on the Cross. And it was only a matter of time before Satan meets his ultimate doom. :D

Wednesday.

Last day of camp. Looking back, camp wasn't as exhaustive as I thought it would have been. Haha and our group has a favourite game! Mi mi mi mi re mi fa soh mi, fa fa fa soh fa mi re soh, mi mi mi re mi fa soh mi, re mi fa mi re doe doe doe! Haha! Oh mann, I love it so much. Must play with church people one day xD I took the whole of the amazing food trail on Tuesday to learn lah! Shows how musically inclined I am. Played a slightly different and more challenging and dangerous version of candle fight in the morning. :D It was fun, nonetheless. Due to my height, I was naturally chosen to hold the candles for my group. -.- Along with all other vertically challenged people. Well, in the process, I lost my right contact lens. Lovely. Haha so ended up playing as a one-eye blind bat. Wore my specs after that. After the entire camp, Lyana and I went to Island Creamery for ice cream. IT WAS SO GOOD! I miss the ice crem there lah! Haven't eaten there for ages. Well, we bus-ed all the way to Causeway Point in the hopes of catching Closing the ring, but alas! It wasn't being screened there. So I ended up watching Mamma Mia again with her, and we took the couple seat. Felt awkward after that, 'cause there was a real couple next to us. Haha but ah wells. It was fun, singing along.

Thursday.

Went for Emphasis Meeting. It was good. Before that I met up with Sheena and we scoured the whole of Holland V for Subway. Sheryl came later 'cause she woke up late and we then ate Coldrock ice cream after that! SO YUMMY! Oh no. I just realised I had ice cream two days in a row!!! No wonder I'm getting so fat!!! ))): Went for CE at SP after that. Sheryl and I paired up and at first we were really lost and discouraged. We decided to pray as we walked and just after we finished, God sent three girls to us! One was a Christian and Sheryl introduced PEP to her. I almost shared the full Gospel to the other two girls, if not for one of them who was looking real bored. I was super nervous, but I just thank God for the seeds sown in their hearts. May God continue to work in them!

Friday.

Charmaine's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL, MAY YOU CONTINUE TO GROW! :D
Isaac's birthday too. HAPPY BIRTHDAT EX-PEP I/C! CONTINUE TO GROW AND GET WELL SOON AND COME BACK FOR FENCING SOON! :D

Saturday.

Went for prayer and then lunch at Golden Rooster. Oh mann, how I miss Golden Rooster! Went out with Crescent people :D Came just in time to see Germaise off. Sat at macs to chat with Peiyi and Qiaoyi and Yvette. Missed them so much (: Haha Qiaoyi and Yvette went to the library while Peiyi and I went to Popular. Bought new files and pens for new school semester! Oh man! I feel so ready for school now! :D Haha rented a couple of movies to watch with Peiyi and Qiaoyi at my house. Heh. Still as messy as ever. My house, that is. Peiyi and I ended up chatting after dinner, didn't feel like watching the Korean show we rented. Walked her to the bus stop at about 10 plus. (: Ah, I miss Crescent.

Today.

Went for church in the morning, went to buy more stuff at Popular after that. (: That's about all. Lazy to further update. This has been one long post!

New song (:

Jesus Doesn't Care - Point Of Grace
You tell me no one would love you
If they could see deep inside
You say your friends might desert you
If they knew the truth you hide, well
There's one who knows you better than
You know yourself
And he still loves you more than anyone else

(Chorus)
Jesus doesn't care what you've done before
How you've rebelled or slammed the door
No matter how far you've run or how long you've been untrue
Jesus doesn't care
He still offers forgiveness to you

For so long you've run from the Father
Into a life of sin
And each time He lovingly called you
You turned your back on Him
No matter if your failures are great or small
There's no way to hide them
He already know them all

(Repeat Chorus)

How many tears will you cry
Till you cry out to the Father
An honest plea for mercy He will not deny
Trust Him and you're gonna find

(Repeat Chorus)

love it loads. Thanks Sheena! It brought me much comfort and many names surfaced in my mind. Kaiqi, Ziying, Grace, Wheekok, people whom I've not seend for a long long long time. Father, draw them back to Yourself.
