Get real

as the title tells.. IM BACK FROM CAMP!!! WOOOOO!

ok nt so much of a "woo" cuz no more crazy-walking-ard-the-room-half-dressed or porking-on-tuna-sandwich-and-chips sessions with janice, shirlyn and jill. BOOO. n of cuz those awesome fantastic worship and services. the funny little pastor julie. i will miss the camp for sure. and shu ai will miss pastor danny. HAHA. he's cute for a 33 year old.

Highlights of camp:

1. bus ride - bumpy ride and sleepy me. flies and smashed flies on windows. HAHA. chips. ok basically all i can rmb was me sleeping and waking up during stops. oops=x. lunch was quite good. i LOVE the coconut pudding. its great=D.

NOT TO FORGET THE SLEEPOVER THE NIGHT BEFORE.

let's just pause for a second for the trip to port dickson mlysia and back to the day b4 we set out. went to watch Narnia with 16 other peeps from youth at cine. Prince Caspian is SO CUTEEe=) edmund n peter both hv their fan base tho. the plot is good. the action was fabulous. haha. head back to church to sleepover at the youth room.

sashi sleep talking became the "in" thing to talk about thru out camp. haha. He left us all laughing our ass off and shake off our sleepiness jus by observing him. LOL. u shld hear it.. u shld.

[back to main topic]

2. roomies! - janice with the weird belly button, shirlyn and her cute blurr-ness, jill the crazy eating machine and me the girl who stops jill from over eating. LOL. we had so much fun. the 'apartment' was.. to me not as impressive as the one last year but still thankful la :). our great idea of bonding by sleeping all 4 tgt in the master room. 4 girls lugging the bed frm the other room all e way into it. it fit nicelY! hooray. sea view and heater within arm's length.

jill's food buying thing syndrome did scare me alil bt oh well came in handy during hungry nights after sucky dinners. 2 loaves of bread, 2 cans of tuna, 3 huge packets of chips, many ice creams and drinks.

we took nice pics of sunset. it was the first time i can actually see rays from the sun, piercing thru the layers of clouds and as if they can extend all the way into the heavens. SO NICE. tt's lik e only ting tt fits into the description on the banner outside the resort as a "romantic getaway". LOL.

3. Games - Coolios! i like e first game we played. memory verse. spinning in circles on hot sand. digging amongst the wordcards n dashing back to starting line. altho we didnt win bt it was fun=)

pictionary was cool. leading the blind folded game was nice. night walk was alot of waiting time. 'moses' aka derek on leading the 'israelites' across e red sea was full of burning sensation on my foot frm the scorched cement floor. not bad either.

4. food - do i hv to get into tt part? haha. food kinda... ahemm.. i tink u shld noe wad follows behind my sentence. flies.. FLIEsss. big spoliers tt swam near ur plate and feed on ur food. eeeks. army food perhaps really taste better my dear.

5. services and worship - pastor julie! she can be described as humourous(very), emotional, inspirational, creative in delivering the message, spastic and jumpy, powerful lady. it was very different frm last yr! i admit tt i did reserve alil bout those comments tt she's a v good speaker. but she proved me wrong.

we had sessions from sitting on chairs and lookin at powerpoint slides to sitting cross legged on the floor and watching re-enactment of bible stories. nt to forget the exciting 'interaction' btwn the guys n girls n 'fiery' rounds of rebuttals and arguments. LOL. sure it was hella fun and enriching! we learnt smth bout gettin real at e end of it. she can jump ard one min and dance abt and the next u see her in tears sharing experience frm her heart. pulling ppl out to sit at the front( e young ones) n dragging ppl out to act as bible characters. marcus as david and ruben as Goliath. HAHA. ppl standin up reading bible scriptures n every1 joining in chorus. FUN. interactive.

worship was good. esp rmb derek's session. wahh. we were all jumpin, praising the Lord and singing with all our lungs and hearts out. altho i was hving a sorethroat bt tt didnt stop me at all! ok bt my aching legs n old-ness did. LOL. gasping for breath. Forevermore was the camp song n it got stuck in my head lik till.. now. hahaha. 'One way! Jesus!' n our squatt-down-ready-to-jump thingo was coolios.

altar call was AWESOMEE! good good good. dealt with issues. got more connected in the Spirit. learnt many things. aiyahh.. i really dk hw to describe in words n i guess it's hard for ppl to b in my shoes to noe hw happy n glad i feel to have gone for the camp. tks be to God=) i really got real. i want to b myselff!

6. the resort - ehhh.. nuff said.

7. the friends - cool! noe sme new peeps n got to noe more bout some. yayness.

8. SUNTANNING! - goshh.. 1st time in my life i actually deliberately went for a tan. with shu ai n jill. on the nt so nice beach bt v good sun. heh heh. we gt quite freaked out by malay stalkers n our guys walking to our direction. bt who cares when the sun is shining n our tan is more impt. LOL. haha. i got tanned! a little. nt bad good start. swam abit l8r n jill was as oily as a roast pig. HAHAHA.

am talkin to shu ai now! i miss tt girl. webcam-ing. hohoho.

9. BACK to church - i looked out the bus window n the 1st person i saw waving back at me n smiling his best was my army boy tt came down to church for me=) hehehe. simple gesture bt it was the sweetest. gah reminds me of the times i gt teased at by ps wil during camp. red face. haha. loveddd. 3 nights without his calls was suprisingly alright n i didnt die frm missing him. but i did miss him alot ! =) as usual. it was tt smile i needed to see=) LOVEEss.
