oh man I feel inspired to post cos of all the tags of the nice little tagboard ahahha.. anyways.. I realised I have not posted abt the youth retreat! ahha..
Youth Retreat 2006the youth retreat was great.. the activities on the first day started off after a nice duck rice lunch.. but u know.. this youth retreat felt different from the rest.. it actually felt like an orientation la! haah.. firstly all the cheering which I never tot we wld do ahha.. and 2ndly.. all the disgusting games!! I mean.. eating the watermelon with our barehands... the captains
ball fruit with a papaya/starfruti/orange.. but hey.. it was fun.. especially the capture the flag part though haha.. 2nd day had this mad treasure hunt thingy and we were awarded the most crazy grp cos we went ard looking for resuorces for like this game where we were suppose to make a long line of stuff going up steps ahha.. ok nvm I dun really know how to explain ahha..
the theme talks were really good too.. on Matthew 5:1-16.. abt the beatitudes and being a salt and light.. really love it haha.. I felt tat God really moved in the retreat.. can see tat God spoke to ppl.. lives were touched.. and once agan.. I praise God for that.. really hope and pray that there wld be revival in my youth fellowship and that we wld go and boldly proclaim God's word to the nations keeping our bound with each other in love..
anyways enough abt the youth retreat.. now abt ACJC haha.. well.. things are getting better.. getting to know alot more ppl.. especailly got to know my classmates better today... well... half of them at least.. it's like my class is split into two camps.. the not so loud ppl and the toruble making loud ppl.. haha.. but I'm not here to judge them.. in fact.. God asked me to show them love haha which I will try to do with God's help lol.. so anyways.. ya got to know the quieter half of my class today haha.. they're nice ppl.. but the thing is tat most of the time we are not with our class cos like some of us take different combis..
as for work.. I actually have omework now! ahha.. tats not too good.. got to do essays.. and lots of reaing... in fact.. it's like getting late and I think I shall go do it now.. haha.. so yup.. oh and pls pray for me.. tat I wld be able to perserve tru all the work and also tat I wld not conform to the ways of this world but in fact be an influencer of those ard me.

Paint The Town Red
You know I feel there's something 'bout to break now,
You know I feel there's a city here to take now.
And it's not so tough for these ordinary hands,
When we trust someone with extraordinary plans.
You know I feel this heart's about to break now,
Cos I can see what the devil's trying to take now.
We've got this leather backed book and a freedom cry,
And we're an army of God who are ready to die.
You give us hope where hope is gone,
You fill the streets with a holy song,
We're gonna paint this big old town red.
Oh, Here we come, here we come
Oh, Here we come, here we come
You know I feel this sky's about to break now.
You know I feel our city's gonna shake now.
And we hear you call every woman and man,
"Ring the mission bell" and storm the gates of hell.
Miracles run from street to street,
Rise up Church for a holy meet,
We're gonna paint this big old town red
We're gonna paint this big old town red
With the blood of Jesus!
