when there is mess there is life
my house is very messy now, so it means that it have life! and it had so much life that the ants empire decide to move in and add more life to my home.
I AM FINALLY BACK FROM MY TRIBE CAMP!
i love church camp. it helps me to be set apart from the earthly place to a Holy ground. it always renew my mind, drawing me back to the cross.
but just now as i alighted from the bus, everything back to square. the people....those who yet to know Christ.ermmmm.
CHRISTIAN without C-H-R-I-S-T will left only I-A-N
and it stands for I AM NOTHING
quoted from PS. SL
we were put in groups consisting of people from the other cell. the first group time was awkward. everyone was so silent, and i couldn't stop laughing. reason because i felt awkward too...and i just felt like laughing.... i do felt stupid. but laughter is Happy, and so.......... it just happen :) muahaha.
the camp was held in Northbrook secondary school. the school was located in a very deserted place. like a school just pop out in the middle of desert. But the school is so cOOL. it have this art corner, very well decorated with many art pieces, even the floor was decorated with coloured tiles.
RED ALERT made me feel as if i was in army. we were fast walking around the school in two. carrying the casualties was the toughest. the marching. the egg race. the NG600 relay, at first we just plan to take it slow. it doesn't matter if we win or not,because ITS ONLY A GAME. WE WON IN THE END. :) we played the crawling on green beans with blindfold on, and the chair lifting with blindfold for 3min. at the first few 10 sec i already cannot make it. it was strenuous! we were to carry the chair in our out stretched arm, maintaining our straight arm THROUGHOUT! till now, my arm muscles is still aching.
the game i like most was the game where we tied our feet together in a circular formation. the task is to cross half of the field.i almost twist my ankle. all this activities require us to wear shoe. but i didn't brought mine so i wear flops throughout. my feet was kana step many times. BUT i still enjoy throughout!!!
ELIJATH WOOSH~
i got a new nick OLIHUA/ OLIWA
my name was miss pronounce over the mic. i think it was because i wrote my name like this
so that's how OLIWA/ OLIHUA comes about. i was known as OLIWA/OLIHUA throughout the camp. during the campfire, my group and one more other group merge as one to put up a skit. the new group name is OLIHUA/OLIWA. i didn't suggested it. someone did,and everyone agreed to it. haha.
from then on, every time i was require to write my name. i make sure the letters are evenly spread out. O L I V I A. back to the very basic. haha.
we celebrated Ps. SL's birthday on day 2 and today we celebrate Fathers' day as a Tribe. Guest of honour, Ps. JO's parents. it was a Father's day cum Ps. JO's father birthday celebration. this ends the whole 3 day 2 night camp.
I have learn that i had to let go of my past hurts and allow God to heal them, and He did. :)
WOAHOOOO~!!!
PRAISE THE LORD!!!
last night Northbrook got a power short circuit AGAIN! last night around 11 like that, i was bathing in the toilet when the power goes OFF! Thank God i was not alone. i was still soaping my body, all the girls in the toilet almost scream. we manage to calm down. we talk, we sing. i entertain them with a short my version of OLIHUA song. CHIN YEE and friend came to our rescue. they brought in torch light and broke the darkness. THREE CHEERS FOR CHIN YEE AND PALS!!! though it was not very bright, but it brought comfort to us who are still bathing.
IT ONLY TAKES A SPARK
TO KEEP THE FIRE GOING

we sang this song as lighted up the candle. the glow of the flame was awesome. the light brought me comfort. i feel peace. the sight of everyone lighting it up was FANTASTICALLY NICE.
WE ARE FAMILY~ :)
