I finally decided that i'm going to bring this place back to life (though I doubt if anyone actually reads it now). Much has happened since I last posted, the most significant of which being that I'm now 1 month+ away from freedom.
As I recount God's faithfulness over the past year, I'm also excited about what's going to happen in the coming year. In addition to uni term starting soon, my ministry areas for 2008 include youth ministry & worship at church, and I got the Year 1 OIC post at BB(i know, you aren't the first to be shocked at the news) My schedule is going to be really packed, so I decided that I won't stay in a hall in uni, because I know that I can't study when others are having fun (who can?).
I'm also slowly learning how to improve on handling relationships with people (i used to be apprehensive about making phone calls and talking to people whom I didn't know that well, but ever since I joined BB, i have made up to 40 within the span of a couple of days) In Army, I learnt to accept the fact that I can't please everyone in the world, and I'm willing to let people who simply want to be angry for no reason be.
I just finished a really long and tiring weekend (only saturday, actually.) Firstly, had BB on saturday morning. It was the Year 1s' first parade, and I was doing worship with Nic Chen & Ben Sim. The Year 1s are quite a bubbly lot this year, and I hope that I'll get to know all of them better soon:) Followed by that, rushed down to church to rehearse for MTM worship with Bennett, then there was pre-MTM prayer time (before which I realised I forgot to type the slides for worship. horrors. thankfully, Celine came to my rescue) I felt MTM didn't go too badly (in my opinion at least) It was my first time doing worship team equipping, and the topic we chose was on helping worship leaders to prepare and lead worship. There was much laughter all round:) I only realised how tired I was when I went hope, and I collapsed straight onto the bed and almost didn't hear my phone ringing even though it was right next to me.
Another week is here. To work (again)
