Random Shot
The rest of the photos will be uploaded to facebook as soon as I get my hands on them!
Probably next week. 😉
Pretty spaced out right now, you know how sleep-deprived people are.
Updates tomorrow!
My brother is getting married tomorrow, and I am somewhat sunburnt.
No, ‘sun-kissed’ is the word. Hur.
Anyways… Sentosa with envoys yesterday was great!
So much for wet-weather plans… The weather was incredible. Didn’t rain, skies were clear, sun was shining brightly, and later on it even got cooler without (yes, you guessed it) the rain.
There was volleyball, soccer, frisbee, walking and jumping about in the sun-schorched sand, food, more food, a HAMMOCK(GONNA GET ME ONE OF THOSE SOMETIME! FRIGGIN AWESOME!), new friends, captain’s ball,et cetera. Everything except touch rugby, and I wonder why we even brought the ball.
Then it was dinner @ the rooftop balcony of vivocity.
I chose long john silver’s over carl’s junior because… You know… It would take me an eternity plus five decades to finish burgers. Especially if it’s from carl’s junior, and ‘junior’ in this context, I assure you, is an understatement. At least for me.
Oh… and guess who takes a longer time than me,to finish his food? 😉
Once dinner was done, we played drinking games. The usual, and as usual- it was fun. Never gets old, those two games! Haha. Yeah… It was an awesome finish to an awesome day, until I had to pee. Couldn’t hold it in any longer by the time the train pulled into serangoon so I rushed, almost as if my life was on the line, to the nearest loo. The world was a much better place to live in after that!
The last I checked, 591 shots in my camera from yesterday.
Gonna need to do QC, and process them before uploading on fb.
So give me til’ Monday or Tuesday and it should all be up by then!
Busy weekend.
Bro’s getting married tomorrow.
BBQ on Sunday.
Preparation work for the party on 17th april on Monday(calling up guests).
Consolidating 20 best photos to burn into a cd for a photography exhibition in May, to be done and submitted by the end of the week.
That’s about all I can think of without looking at my ipod calender!
lovin’ my new guitar 😀
It was always at the back of my head, but when art pointed out that we, the current exco, will soon join the ranks of SEXCO, it does seem like just yesterday that we were, although in a different form, once here.
the good ol’ days, indeed.
so for those of you who don’t already know, or rather, I have yet to share with…
I flagged a cab one bus stop after KAP(King Albert’s Park) and this uncle, he was awesome!
He’s about my dad’s age, I think. But the point is… We struck up a conversation, and the ride home concluded with him giving his packet of coffee(yet to be consumed) to me! He insisted, and told me he already had one just before he’d started his shift.
It was almost midnight and his shift had just begun, and by the time I got home the fare had already taken the midnight surcharge hike, but he charged me only $12 instead of the actual $13.20.
to you that probably isn’t that big a deal, and really, it isn’t.
but the point is, the whole time I felt like as we conversed I was, in some way, being a blessing to him- and I pray that I was, and that God’s joy will see him through his shift!
The week has been, for lack of a better word- WOOOOOH!
seriously,though- I’ve learnt a lot, and that’s not even doing justice to what I’m really trying to say but all you who know me better should understand! Yesterday’s word from Pastor Kong @ CHC was a superb touch-down at the try-line(touch rugby lingo) and Esther’s 21 st birthday @ NTU’s Media, Design & Arts School… that was good,too!
Great architecture, btw!
God has been giving me some really,really cool revelations- continue to pray with me that as I pray about them, my heart will be sensitive to His direction and my spirit will be obedient to His calling!
I’m hoping to finish 2 books in the next 2 weeks!
1. A Heart Ablaze – John Bevere
2. Leadership Excellence – Phil Pringle
Powerful men of God, these two!
I trust that both books will prove to be great reads.
Checkin’ out!

This concept is actually adapted from someone else’s blog- I found it interesting (gifford, O’ gifford- seriously? Enough with ‘Interesting’ already, that’s only when you’re lazy to find something more apt to describe what you really think).

Thus endeth this…entry?
This video is proudly brought to you by ong chuan lian! 😀
Something she mentioned in her description of the video on the youtube page set me thinking:
It’s not about “Where is God?”, but “Where is God’s people?”
It has been an interesting week, but more about that tomorrow.
I want this! 😀
I like how one of them mentioned that it is impossible, and just doesn’t seem right for us to call ourselves Christians and yet not be moved in the area of justice.
If you search for the deffinition of the word ‘justice’, you’d find something like this:
-noun1.The quality of being just; righteousness, or moral rightness: to uphold the justice of a cause.
Apply it in the context of what God has called us to do, and there you have it.
Camp tomorrow, I ought to call it a day.

“…Because you know the testing of your faith develops perserverance. Perserverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete- not lacking anything” James 1:3-4
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight” Proverbs 3:5
These 2 verses, as I read them this evening- fused into an insightful revelation from God about what I have been going through in my walk recently. We all come to a point in life where God would shake us out of complacency and the walls of comfort we have built up around ourselves would come crashing down. If you read on from James 2, in verse 17 he(James) goes on to explain how faith, not accomapnied by action- is dead.
What does faith have to do with God shaking us up?
You see, faith, untill applied- remains in the form of the words we speak and the thoughts we think.As the saying goes, an idle mind is the devil’s playground- and sooner than we would imagine, our souls are diluted by the devil’s distortion of the truth- and God’s character in us loses its form.
We are called to actively choose to pursue the truth and uphold God’s standards- because for one, that develops a faith in us that is peservering, and two- because of how tough that is sometimes, it pushes us to a point of surrender.
That explains the second verse.
This season in my walk is one of constantly having to choose against my own understanding and perceptions of everything around and inside of me as they unfold- because I think too much for my own good.
When Chenglong came by my place just before I headed out for G12, we decided we both had some time to spare and so we decided to do a lil’ catching up… The gist of it is this: what he shared, what I received during the conference, and what I read this evening- are all centred around the fact that there is a need for me to tune in to the holy spirit and ask for a greater sensitivity to it speaking to me- the distractions thrown at me have derailed my train of thoughts and I have come under greater attack than I thought i was ready to deal with- but the fact is, I was.
All I needed to do, was surrender.Contrary to popular belief, choosing to surrender(to God) wholeheartedly is choosing freedom- because He has come to seek and save the lost(us)- where we once were bound by the chains of injustice, our souls can now find their voices to sing again.
Has your soul found its voice?
It has been a while since i’ve had the opporunity to wake up at 2 in the afternoon, heh :DI’d probably get an ass-kickin’ from my superiors if i were to be doing my internship this term break,the way i’m going with my sleep patterns!
All this aside,though- I’m all prepped up for a long weekend.G12 Conferenece tomorrow evening and the whole of saturday, and perhaps packing in some hours at the IT fair just for kicks. Boon’s gonna get his Ipod touch,and Elena… I don’t know what she’s gonna get.
We’ll see!
On a random note…Did I mention how my new pair of leather shoes from Black Hammer tend to make me tap-dance whenever I’m wearing them?
Also… Party on the 17th april! Whoohoo!
Time Check: 4 am.That is all- words are escaping me, wide awake though I may be.see y’all on the other side!
