youth camp

HELLO!!! we are back from youth camp!!

i shall write a write-up of the camp so i can come back and read it and remember the times hahah.

okay firstly, i was already veri tired to begin with. cudnt sleep the nite b4 the first day of the camp and reached there veri tired after lugging my stuff along with the song books into sentosa. the pre-camp briefing by irvin said that we shud not complain!!! hahah and i was really scared i might.

first, there was welcoming the campers. they came in 3 grps.. 1st grp the biggest and 2 more smaller groups. and we started with camp briefing and angel mortal picking. muhahahah i got candice as my mortal. and i failed to disguise my identity hahahah. so it was obvious to her by the first letter it was me. and also my angel was my june camp mortal. hahah. and i made the big mistake again of writing to my angel not as the mortal hahah.. so in june camp charmaine wrote 5 letters to me in total haha. yeaps. then had ice breakers and checking into our rooms.

the place isnt of tip top conditions.. here are some pics to show u why: ooh this door handle is cool.

check out this piano too.. look at the keys on the extreme right and compare it with a normal piano u have at home. spooky eh? hahah and the whole piano is out of tune by a semitone.

yeap but anyway cannot complain rite? so smile!! lolz. games that afternoon.. was quite okay.. first game was making the disgusting sandwich out of a mass of seasonings and spicy stuff and dunnowat lolol and we had to eat it, and second was transferring water where every group cheated. the lesson on the first nite was an intro by kelvin and goal setting. i must remember to carry out my goals that i set!! hahah. but will need God's help.. my goals i've found are as not as straightforward as they look.

second day we woke up at 530am for prayer walk.

hahah i dint really plan the route that well so i was making it up as we went along, but i think it was quite okay, nice scenery and atmosphere to talk to God. following prayer walk were lessons on character and relationships. highlights: irvin's 'uncle adrian-ishque' diagram and Jesus' great love for His disciples.

that afternoon was dirty games @ the beach. the game that intrigued me the most was the game where we were supposed to peel the oranges and transfer them from one end to the other using only our feet. like totally gross and retarded. i like. the other game was where we all got flour caked to our clothes. hahah.

that night's lesson was on crisis, and i was really touched by the story of Horatio and the hymn 'it is well with my soul'.

day 3 morning was uncle lee hock's lesson on career, and it was realli interesting. my personality type is ISTJ!! hahah. very very interesting. and now i am starting to see the purpose for me playing guitar.. to have time to myself to recharge my energy. also requires a great deal of T(hinker) and J(udger) (the elements of gniao-ness lol how u spell it) to increase in technical ability. so guitar will be a big part of my life even tho i might not teach guitar!! yay.

day 3 afternoon saw the replay of my game invention (well maybe i dint invent it, but i found it on the net) of body parts musical chairs!! hahah my favourite body part for that game was 'someone elses brown hair' hahah. dint noe there were so many pple in the youth hu went to dye hair. then was the presentation of mtv parody!! lolol. quite glad my group managed to work together despite our large age differences to make a realli spastic dance. heres a picture of charmaine's group looking confused.. and where later irvin started making up indian dance moves on the spot lol.

later that night was the lesson summary then the skits!! hahah i think my group's skit was great!! hahah it was nice pure innocent content made funny ^^ 'yoyo farmer in the dell!!'

night tour!! hahah that alley 'feng shui' quite good.. managed to score 111 and 127!! yay!! but of cos due to some faults in the computing system lah. after that we went to lau pa sat to eat stuff and listen to pirated music lolol. returned back to hostel and tried to stay up by writing letters

but failed at the 5am mark. lol. i was afraid i wudnt make it out of the island alive if i dint sleep.

woke up at 830 due to a stomachache. lol. nasty. clean up, and we were off for home!!

okay i shall update this when i have more jing shen.. i am trying to stay up until at least 630 or 7pm tonite.

thank God for a gd youth camp!! youth camps rock!! :)
