simple joy and excitement.

I'm excited! I'm excited for the upcoming NE camp that will be held this weekend. A 3days 2nights camp at the far end of Changi Village. A time for the whole Northeast brothers and sisters to retreat together, for the hardwork done through the year and to recharge for the Christmas Harvest. :D I've never been so excited towards camp. Probably because for all the camps I've been to, it was more of old birds running the camp etc. But now, having our very own Northeast camp means something else. It means raising up people to take on roles; to train them and help them expose to areas so as to furthermore, extend the Kingdom of God. It means of helping the younger believers to grow even more, through all the teachings, P&Ws and even games.

In this camp, I'm proud to say that I'm part of the NE band. We have Ruichen as the keyboardist, Ian as the bassist, Walmond as the drummer, Kok Leng as the electric guitarist and me as the acoustic guitarist. (x This band forms from differnt background, personalities and attitude yet it is this passion within each individual that draws all of us together. Also, a common vision. :D Just one practice tells me so much of this newly formed band. During practices, we have to tolerate Walmond's loudness as he hit the drums; I used ear plug to help reduce the damage to my ear. And again, we have Walmond giving funny replies like "so that is the one" when we were rehearsing My Redeemer Lives. It is more than an individual, it is a teamwork. It is the tolerance among each other and the attitude of listening to one another's suggestion, to progress to a higher level. I can't wait to see people's lives being changed during P&W. I really can't wait. :D

Together with Yong Kang, we'll be leading Jubilant! It means of joy and triumphant. :D It's gonna be so exciting! Because I always have a fear of leading team but now, it is a time of moulding. A time for breakthrough. Today Yesterday, we had just settled our mascot and name for our team! Haha. So much later than other teams! We have Jovin to paint for us and I think that it should be ready by tomorrow. (: Can't wait to see! Oh yea, cheers! Sin hui's passing me that list of cheers on Saturday! WOO! I'm so geared up for games. For all the sabotages that we have been told and how disgusting it will be. Despite of tiredness that I foresee, I will learn to rise and shine with recharged energy to survive through the camp.

Whee! So cool, I'm put in charge for sound too! Haha. So that means I get to do set-up by myself; with the amplifers and mics. Haha. And it will be quite funny to do adjustment because there won't be mixer around. Just thinking the sound tracks for opening and closing have already caused me headache. Yea, Roy(!) I appreciate you for doing that everyweek. I pray that everything will go smoothly. :D Oh yea, sound tracks will be coming in slowly from different units I think. Haha. Sihan, help! (^^)"

Now for the unit presentation. I just been notified that I'm DANCING! Like Jiayi's dancing? Haha. Alright, people(!) encourage me! HAHA. Like what I told Wyn, I'm denying myself. ~o.O~ Cool though.


Tomorrow's Later's music practice for us all. It's gonna be so so cool. To jam together and to laugh together over each other's silliness. Friday's transportation day. I'll have to supervise. HAHA. And I will get to travel here and there! I really can't wait for everything to be played at its own timing.


PS:: For the past few mornings, I have fumbled upon my disc player to start playing Evermore and One Way. Just to catch a better strumming. And I really pray for God's anointing to be upon me as I play. Not me, but Him. It is by Him that people will be touched and changed. And that is the only way that people will be ministered.
