christmas outing & orientation 2009

busy busy busy with orientation, went back to school for dry run on 29 and 30. and we had much more fun on the second day, because everyone participated and bonded more with each other. with seniors like joy and joy helping us, it moved on smoothly :)

and i hope that orientation will go on really smoothly and that we won't be too pressured.

but christmas outing to bg really worked out and i had much fun. captain's ball after frisbee, game after game, and i got really burnt. i went suntanning with alicia, joh and sammie, just sitting in the middle of the field watching people playing games and slacking. :) my clique and i went climbing up the tembusu tree and sarah had much difficulty making her way down again. lol.. :D

and claire and i swapped our converse shoes and i'll update our picture when i have more time.
pretty purple shoes..

dear God, please bless orientation 2009.

christmas:)

i enjoyed christmas this year, really much. i got to attend both services for christmas 2008, candlelit on 24 and the actual one on 25. and candlelit service was really nice cos we could hold our lighted candles and sing carols through the service, not the usual type of service on sundays.

i got much more christmas messages this year and in the morning it was one after another, and they would just keep coming in. merry christmas to everyone!

sarah and i were busy preparing our christmas presents last week and she said that she would give them out this sun but i gave most of mine on the 21. and i'm super excited about the christmas outing the leaders are holding for us this sunday, and most people are turning up! yayss. :)

and pastor gave the sermon yesterday about the darkness, desert and storm in our lives and Jesus is the answer to all our problems. Thank you God! :)

christmas isn't christmas

till it happens in your heart

christmas outing! :)

i went to church and small group yesterday though i was not really feeling well. so i didn't really absorb much during sermon. :(

we learnt about meekness during small group and it was quite a good lesson and i learnt that gentleness means humble, submissive. and i gave out most of my christmas presents except for those who didn't come yesterday and those i could not have time to give to. and alicia is back, and claire will come this coming sun. yays :)

we're having christmas outing this sunday, 11 to 7 at bg! :) and i'm finally able to make it for our small group gathering cos i'm always missing camps and outings because i'm on hols. and what we're having is probably sports and games! there's christmas service on christmas day i'll try to give my presents out to those i didn't see yesterday.

so from me, a very merry christmas 2008 to all my friends and family! :) God bless!!

SiCk.. :(

miserable...i fell ill since yesterday, and i have terrible sore throat and blocked nose. so i've decided to skip this evening's christmas party lest i become worse and would be unable to attend church tomorrow. :(

and i've been very lethargic the whole day but i went swimming this morning cos i know that if i don't get back to swimming i would never step into a pool again. so i made myself forget all the excuses about being tired and swam for one and a half hours. and here i am blogging and i hope that i will not feel too miserable the next day.

we planned a whole lot of fancy drill steps on thurs and i went back for council duty for registration yesterday and what i saw was a whole lot of fairsians and minority of people from other schools. :)

and so we're near to completing our fancy drill planning and pracs start again next year between week 3 and 4. i hope that we win the comp this year again, like we won best company in 2007's drill comp. :)

Dear God, please make me well again

back from ipoh

i'm back from ipoh and finally back to drill pracs again! :) and we are planning the final bit of fancy drill now, using the song Not Ashamed by planetshakers.

and God has been good to us, not letting us quarrel over what to put in and what not to. and so we have polished up our static drill and now most of our time we use it for fancy. and today we practised a bit of drill with our senior girls and i have to say there is much much room for improvement! so we're trying our best to correct them though sometimes we get ignored :(

our fancy drill is really coming up nicely and it fits into the song, with many steps that we really enjoy planning and trying out. i'm looking forward to trying the whole thing out when the rest of the contingent come back for the last prac :)

and back to church again, with alicia coming back on the 17th. :) and christmas round the corner, what sarah is looking forward to a lot.

and so i'm really happy with life now and i have registration duty for sec 1s 2009, and orientation trial run soon, with seniors coming back to supervise! :)

thank God for people in drill comp! it really bonds you with the rest of the company! :)

i've got to let it show

let the whole world know

what You've done in me

cos i'm not ashamed

i'll be a light

in the darkest night

everyone will see

that i'm not ashamed

IpOh :)

i'm back in ipoh visiting relatives and i've been trying to complete my holiday homework everyday so i wouldn't start to slack. :) i've just found time to write here in my blog. holiday for now, but i'll be having 3 extra pracs for drill 2 weeks later-doing fancy drill :)

and next week i'll be heading to penang and staying one night there. yay!

so i've gone to church here in ipoh and there's actually much difference between tacklebox and the service here. i mean.. they usually sing hymns here from the hymnal and we have all our songs on powerpoints and most of the songs we have are fast and quick. but not that i'm grumbling, it's good to have hymns once in a while!! :)

and we'll be staying here for quite sometime, around 2 weeks and will be going back to singapore on a sunday and back to mass dance and drill the next morn. and i'll be catching up on my reading the next few days and on TYS...:)

that's about it for now..will blog again when i come back from penang.

toodles :)

what can wash away my sin?

nothing but the blood of Jesus...
