wow, it's been a long time since i blogged.. cos got YI camp, and then everyday so busy and rushed, so never blog... YI camp was... alrite lo... could be better? but the speaker was good, learnt alot... the activities on the 1st game day was rather bad... but the 2nd game day was great! planned by hanyang, big ben they all.. not bad not bad... commendable... noah didn't win anything (aww...) but it was great having acts 1, 2 and 4 together... justin fell sick again and 3mao didnt even go... haii... oh, and cheers to abi-joy for the cheer... it was great!

then, it was christmas bash!! 400+ people in service 2!! hope that they will be able to stay, those newcomers. i tell u something horrible! i pierced my ears to wear earrings to christmas bash cos i didnt have really retro clothes and so having retro accessories would help... but on that day, i found that my ear was infected!! and only my right ear... i was so upset, cos now i cant wear my earrings le... and i dun look retro.. so i decided to wear one earring... on my left ear only... and everyone had a good time laughing at my unbalanced ears... o well... i had fun... after service, we didn't feel like going home, still high u know... so the guys wanted to go play mahjong... but joel's house cannot, my house cannot, giana's house also cannot...

we were giving up hope and took 67, like on the way home le... then, we asked edward to call his mom and see if can... and we could!! but his house no mahjong table, so 3mao, weihao, yeehong, joel and me went to my place to get the table and set then walked over to edward's house.. LOL, it felt like an illegal gathering cos it was so late le and we were carrying a mahjong table around... so we went over to edward's place... giana dunno y moodswing? then she didnt go, so i was the only girl... there was samuel, 3mao, ming yang, chee wai, edward, yeehong, weihao and me... so many people with only one set, so 3mao, yh, wh and i went into the room to play guitar while the others play first... i learnt 4 chords! enough to play something in my heart... im gonna practice and be able to play it!! im not retarded!! ya, that's all i guess... im rotting at home now, on christmas eve cos no one ask me to go out... lol... so pathetic... but nvm, tml gonna have fun... all my cousins coming over and i can open my presents!! hohoho...

sarah pops sweet into her mouth in the MRT
sarah chews sweet happily
suddenly, odd looking woman stared at sarah and said, " excuse me!" then proceeds to point at the no eating and drinking sign.
sarah frowns and said, " im finishing it already."
odd looking woman burst out, " BUT YOU ARE STILL EATING IT RIGHT?! DO YOU THINK IT IS FAIR TO THE OTHER PEOPLE?!"
people on the train stares at us.
sarah looks at emeline(beside her) and sees emeline rolling her eyes.
sarah marched up to the odd looking woman and SLAPS her right in the face!!

okok, so the last sentence ain't true, but the rest of it were... gosh... wonder what's up with that crazy woman!! it was a freaking SWEET!! oh man... if she wanna say, fine, but she had to go all crazy and had to make a commotion out of it... the world is full of sad, lonely little people that HAVE to make trouble just to add a little colour into their dull dull lives...

but anyway, went out with emeline today... shopped and talked... and i got my ears pierced!! haha... cos i wanted to wear nice little retro earings for the christmas bash, and for that to happen, i'll need pierced ears... so THERE!! lalala, quite fun la today... (:

okok, lisa ask me to update, so i SHALL!!
DAY 1:
travelled travelled travelled... went to changi airport, flew to bangkok airport, took coach to khon kaen... didn't have lisa yet, i i should say i was a little bored... :( nothing much la day 1... lemme skip it.. *SKIP*

DAY 2:
1st day of ministry.. went to hospital in the morning and saw so many poor kids... like so many less than 1 yrs old but in ICU, then got one got water in the brain and the whole head was swollen... my heart really went out to them... cried many times while praying but hid it well.. heh heh... then it was off to the special school with many handicapped people... had to do skit (CHOICES) and i was to be the girlfriend!! yeehong was the guy!! I HAD TO SEDUCE HIM!! it was painful, the whole thing... gosh... before my turn i was still talking to myself (like u know, screaming softly and trying to calm myself down) though it's my second trip, last yr i didnt do much, slacked alot... but this yr they push all to me, say i old bird le then all i do... so i had to seduce yeehong lo... wanted to burst out laughing can?! felt like i did badly... o well... the wheelchair bound kids did stunts on their wheelchairs, that was quite cool...

after dinner and tracting, when for night rally... the rally was... SCARY!! first of all, there was this video there of the T.B Joshua (i think that's his name la) on the healings and miracles thing... and i was so badly affected by it because it was so disgusting! i think one guy dunno have some STD, his whole THAT THING was rotting?!?! T.B josh prayed for him and he got healed la... but the thing is... the video WAS NOT CENSORED!! they kept showing that part!! i wanted to cry le.. i was scared out of my wits... i like sat down and hugged my knees to chest and hid my eyes.. yeehong was laughing at me, but justin was nice... he was comforting me and like stroked my head, trying to calm me down... *i was shocked la cos i thought all justin was good at was to make fun of me* then when yeehong saw that i was really upset, he moved to sit in front of me so i would be shielded... yup... erm, then i had to do skit (RECONCILIATION)... yes, AGAIN!! guess what, YEEHONG WAS ADAM AND I WAS EVE!! darn... acted, hmm, did not bad i think.. heh heh...

now the scary part... when pastor daniel was preaching, an old woman died in the house opposite!! a group of people went off to go kay-po.. then, a 2 yr old kid flew out of his bike and all his little kiddy friends went to help him... literally the whole audience were leaving as pastor was preaching!! it was awful... pastor almost gave up, but we all remained prayerful... then pastor went to help the little boy too and he brought the kids back.. slowly, things picked up.. breakthrough came when one driver came up for healing for back ache and he got healed... then slowly more and more people came up for healing and stuff... by the end of the day, quite a few souls came to the LORD and i was very happy!! cos before that, while in the van, God told me that there would be miracles and salvations that day... but as i saw the people leave, my faith level just dropped and dropped... but by the end of the day, i saw God really move and i learnt that i should really hold unto His word and His promises and not to lose faith easily... (: oh ya, and PRAYER REALLY WORKS!!

shall continue the other days soon!.. stay tuned...

I'M BACK!! and over the next few days, i would blog about the entire mission trip and what i learnt and experienced... today's post shall not be about anything but my TEAM!! lemme do a short description about everyone of my team mates...

HANYANG- our dear leader... i honestly think he can be a great teacher next time... he's very funny and patient but yet get things done.. but then again, having this wonderful team, everything can be done well de la... hmm, a very nice guy la, what else can i say.. that he's balding?! nah, i shan't say that.. very bad... lol

LISA- assistant leader... did she assist much? not really... LOL!! jkjk... hmm... she tasted her own sock... but she's very caring and takes care of everyone in the group.. looks old but is really only 22, tsk tsk... it has been great getting to be with her and she is our food provider!! i only lost like 1 or 2 kgs cos of her, wanted to lose like 4kg!! ok nvm...

JUSTIN- funny guy... saw the real justin in this trip.. thought he was insensitive and an irritant... but in this trip, i saw the responsible, funny, protective yet vulnerable justin... when he fell sick i was like aww... so poor thing... yup, hmm, nice guy i guess?

YEEHONG- stupid torture chamber... lol... sometimes i really think we are siblings... we always say things in unison... it's uncanny.. likes to torture me, flick my poor swollen ear and stuff... but he's a nice guy la... has funny facial expressions... i always feel like pinching his nose when he laughs cos he scrunches it and it would look so pinchable...

SAMUEL- mr. fishball... erm, didn't really talk to him leh... lol, prefer the online him... funnier... but he is honestly so super cute... he even has a fanclub!! all his actions and stuff are so cute.. and his cheeks are so round, makes him absoloutely the cutest thing! looks so compatible with *cough cough* too.. lol

VARMA- our joke provider... like lisa said, he is a small boy trapped in a big boy's body... his actions are so... immature? and he whines alot... lol... but he was so cute and excited when lisa got him the doremon... gosh... he is seriously funny... got to know him a little better on this trip i guess... MI DE BAO MA!!

RYAN- i think he grew alot in this trip... although he sure is one distracted guy... can pray halfway and start looking around one... he is rather... disgusting... makes me go eww... like he... ok nvm, i shall not elaborate... but im grossed out... lol.. but im still glad to see him excited for GOD..

HUIFANG- her face very big... haha... but she is very funny... her favourite drink is yakult... and as a result, she shat so much during the trip... kept shitting when i was constipated.. i was so jealous of her shitting abilities, guess yakult helps... our dear QUEEN OF THE JUNGLE like red alot, enjoyed her company...

ALYSSA- small gurl with a LOUD VOICE... quite shrilling... but she is very cute.. had insect bites on both her hands and they were all swollen.. made her fist look like boxing gloves, or kong ba bao as justin said... tot she would be the kind to complain alot, like the da xiao jie sort, but she didn't!!

SHI TING- very aunty... seriously.. rather impatient at times and would complain la... but she still small, so i guess it's accepatable.. super shy, hates it when guys call her cute... especially hanyang!! lol... she very on fire for GOD lo, so that's a good thing...

MELVIN- don't really know him.. but he like very cute... talked to him a little in the last few days and he like a bit blur... but he is very alert when sergio goes clubbing, that seems to be what he likes to spot for... lol... but i think he opened up alot compared to the past and im glad for him...

SERGIO- the clubber... haii... couldn't believe he was a clubber until i saw it with my own two eyes... and of cos after melvin would get so excited everytime he goes clubbing, so i guess he really is a clubber... distracted guy, dun really know if he benefitted or got closer toGod in this trip.. really hope he did.. dun want him to go just for fun...

SHAUN- though he left halfway, i still regard him as part of the team... he was a good translater and helped out alot... could see he really wanted to stay, but it's okay, hope everything is cleared up now and wanna see him in the mission field NEXT YEAR!! jia you shaun...
