Hope Retreat....
Back to Singapore, finally... but with a little bit "yiyi bushe"... Maybe our retreat used to be 4 days, with this time round 3D2N... But not bad though, with pockets of R&R... some of us went for spa, while the rest, hanged around... catching up... For me and my rm-mate, AH... we slept almost of the free pockets... which means almost the whole day... she's recovering from cough and i got headache, after taking the muscle-relax medicine, i also went to Zzzzzz.... it will cause certain degree of drowziness.... Then i had a really heavy BBQ dinner, catching up with pp at my table, listening... also shared with one of the leaders... and listening to live band... Can u imgaine I. pp singing chinese songs, like T.T, etc??? Think those who stayed back to listen, enjoyed ourselves very much... only 2 tables stayed back to listen to the live music.
This time round, we had a suite... sharing with R&I,P... Quite a experience lor since my first time bunking with kids around... quite fun though, playing with him in our suite... Den walked Jo Jo 2 times, with A & BS allowed... After playing and hanging with kids, i found out i also loved kids, just that i didnt wanted to get closed with them... Enjoyed my time spent with the kids... esp P. =) hmmm, at our room where the children programme will be held... after 1 session, we left for our room early while the leaders were having their meetings... Vic, A, P still at R&I's room, so at first, we wanted to play bridge but lack of 1 more players... and B wanted to zzzzZzZ.. and Both J and J's roommates have to go meetings so end up at my room...and end up we played with the kids....
Oh ya, i enjoyed the silent retreat very much... it's been a long time hearing and getting assurance from God. Was indeed very rested and refreshed in God. Though that i'm might fall asleep as we wasnt allowed to talk to one another... but as i was walking with God admiring His creation... am very well assured that in my rest of the journey, God will still faithfully walking with me to heaven... hehe... Just today was doing on my daily devotions which HZ has prepared in our camp file... In Exodus 33... God's presence will we find rest... something like that... Rest... i would really love to have beside the physical rest during the camp but also spiritual rest which i'm continue to seek to rest in God. And knowing the riches we have in Jesus... reminds me of the story that P. KL shared with us... knowing the our postitions in Christ... so something i'm looking forward to... That's to enjoy the richness in Christ and what i strived to gain.. not things that's temporary but can last eternal...
Playing bridge is something we have been doing in every hope camp... this year also the same... On the last night, which is yesterday... We holed up in KJDM's room to played bridge until midnight.... Quite tiring esp this morning which i have to force myself to wake up early for our 1st morning session as well as breakfast.... Played bridge again while waiting for our ferry time... and played table tennis with Ed and P... wow, both of them were really good... end up me and P. KL genna "trashed"... not too bad we hit few points against them.
Hmmmm, the rest i will shared more in future...... fingers too tired!!! hehe...

Raining Sat Afternoon...
Had a really long day....
Starting with my company's in-house seminar @ 1 of the hotels near city hall stretching from morning 9.30am to 1.00pm... It's the last seminar and it's 3 CPD points for attending so it will helps me to get professional membership w SISV in the future... Was comtepleting whether should i join or not since i have w this firm for 2 years and i can back-dated my log stuffs.. hehe... my e.d have been rather enocuraging, urging our staffs to get.
Actually, wont be here blogging cause i have brought home work and still not even half way through but i have to print out the camp application and waiting incoming email since my other pc do not have printer...so have to send to my yahoo email, thus have to wait for the email to reach... quite slow for internet email...aiyah!!! a bit slow leh...
Am a bit tired... reached home quite late at night... Sat on the last train and quickly hop off at TPY to catch my last bus as well... heng, i managed to catch the bus... Was a bit worried when the bus-stop was almost emptied when i reach the bus-stop... After washing my clothes, it's well past 1am liao...
Today... after the seminar, went with a ex-colek to Nav annual sale at our HQ... By the time, i reach there, it was pouring really heavily... me and my fren, RG was quite drenched... Think must be the heavy rain that kept people from going... happens that this year, there's no free transport to n fro to our HQ from the MRT stn.. and unfortunately our Nav HQ is inside a pte residence area so meaning walking under such a heavy rain will get u drenched from head to toe. haha.... and it's not a short walk from the MRT stn... walking will take around 20mins to reach... =( Hmmm, brought myself 2 books while my fren brought none... okay, guess reading english books wasnt too attractive to my fren... cos my fren from the chinese service. okay... guess got car does help during raining days.... if not i wont be able to make it this year again... since i missed it last year... Actually, i quite missed walking from K. MRT to our HQ though it's quite far but the scenery is really beautiful, when the flowers blooms and the sound of the birds chipping away does help me to focus on God and His creation. I missed the camps there when i was still a student, bunking with the rest inside a 20plus dorm... at night got orchestra some more... =P
After which i went with my fren's church, ORPC... which they also have a fund-raising... by the time we reached there, they almost done for the day... and we walked around and since it's still raining quite a fair bit, i decided to go home while my fren had another appt... and Zzzzzz... hehe.. wake up just now for dinner and started on my work... =(
Okay, have signed up for our hope camp and taken 2 days leave so that i can rest... after the camp...quite tiring if i have to rush back to work on Monday... Shall make full use of the 1 day break. Have to rush back to my work after printing out the application form... The email still on the way!!!

Cold, raining Thursday...
Oh... so cold and wet day!!!
I'm on half day leave today... went alone to the branch tat my sis n S.C. went for their monthly girl stuffs... and it's at Raffles Place. and after that i went walking around at Vivocity... quite big area... didnt went into every single shops... This's how i spent my 1/2 day leave... instead of what i planned orginally... but it's okay since though the methods used is diff, but end results i achieved... hehe... REST...
Just wanna blog this song... so amazing has touched me.... It's still/Be still my soul by Don Moen
esp the chorus:
When the ocean rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm
Father You are King over the flood
And i will be still and know you are God
Taken from Isaiah 43... indeed i was encouraged by this song... Not just words from song lyrics alone but from the promises from God... Was been reminded the BSF lesson on Noah's time when God sent heavy rain and flood all over the highest mountain and no one that's has breathe lived to see the flood... Just amazed of how big our God is... Sometimes i cannot see God that big, but maybe visual helps a bit to help me understand God... well, i'm just but a mist that will disappear quite fast and how could i ever understand/grasp the plans God had in place for us... Have to live by faith everyday... Though i may not understand now... i have to believe.
Going to Zzzzz soon... preparing for the days ahead.... to complete new work task on my desk.
