Well..i'm back from Church Camp 2006..as i usually say..time flies..so fast and church camp 2006 is over. It's my 3rd church camp in Hope. As i told Andrew, it's a miracle that you still see me @ this camp.despite the many difficulties that i've faced the past year..ups & downs..life like a roller coaster.or should i say: "Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you gonna get." anyway.. i think i thank God, my Lord, King, Saviour & Best Friend for the patience & love towards me that make me last so long & endured through all the troubled times. =). enough of all these...k church camp 2006 theme was.."Kawan Go Melaka". Besides making new friends there are many things installed. should i say the objectives i set for this camp is met? Yeap.. okie..church camp never fails to prove something..it isn't easy to live under the same roof together.. this time my room mate was--> Miss Yeo Keng Suan. Now i know her secrets..nothing weird about her. In fact, glad that Mr James Ng made me shared a room with her. Miss Yeo is someone whom i never really know despite her being in the same unit as me. But through this camp, i actually hug her when i wake up in the morning.haha!!!

Last night of the church camp, slept with my dearest shepherd..Shireen..finally she saw the true me..in fact she said i was "sleep talking". she never understood what i was mumbling about. but just mentioned that i let out a big yell and scream "very heavy!! very heavy!!" haha..

Besides all the sleeping part..we had our interesting moments..of coz the unit had a mascot..and that's our "Flying Turtle" which we say represents our UL--> Teck Keong.. On top of that, we won the 2nd runner up for the Kawan ShowCase,presenting-----> "Bubblegum" whereby William, Caleb acted.

Next thing was the "Find our Kawan" part. All of us were given a Kawan to buy a gift. My Kawan is a girl from NG14 called Pei Fun..=) Glad that i've finally known who she is..and she's not another face in church =)..in fact i had a photo with her..Next up, i was complaining why my Kawan never come and find me!!!! =( until the Aloha Nite then i knew..and guess what..my Kawan is someone whom i serve together before in the ushering team, Han Yew from NG14.

Besides the usual teachings,P & W that we had, there was also alot of games involved.. enjoyed the "speed frienship" thingy. Met alot of people from other units. Sherena from NG10B1, Wei Wei from NG14A4, Grace from Ng2B2..and many more..many friendships were made and i'm so glad that the church isn't just a place where everyone are just faces and the friendship is those which touch surface only.

One of the most embarassed moments during this church camp is that i was made the "ding ding" girl..thanks to Dennis..actually it was more of a punishment for me being itchy handed.. haiz.i went to play with the untouchable monkeys on display..and he saw it..so as a punishment, he made me go "ding ding" people 15 mins before lesson time to remind people to go for teachings.now people see me, they all say "You are the Ding Ding girl!!!" =(. Other stuff was that my photogenic face which i took with Angela appeared on the super big screen during Angela unit presentation...was called a "traitor" jokingly by Andrew. now i shot to fame with that photo.

During our unit chill out, we tried practising a song together. but with the short practice, one word to say BAD! everybody was out of tune and of coz i was super out.Imagine asking me to sing bass! how can that be!!! i am a super soprano loh!! On our way back, there was again alot of singing.i was super tired by then so didn't join them. but pity the other unit people who were on the same bus as us. and kena tortured by all of us. our singing, laughing..I think if our unit continue to be like that no unit dare to kawan us anymore.

To sum it all up, we watch World Cup as a Unit together also (some of the people zzz). Shireen, Jarain & Me were all in our various jacket (see photo below)..and Heng Heng.Germany won the opening match. Else Nic says i either have to stop wearing it or turn it over to wear. phew...

Finally, finally..it was an encounter with God..Personally i came to this church camp with a heavy heart. But really thank God that this church camp, besides releasing unforgiveness, i also learn that for the life we always wanted, lots of planning is involved. =) Lastly, true joy has to come from God. =)
