Never gonna be the same again 11:48 PM

Church Camp (life changing)
1st day
We met in Riverlife and boy oh boy, its packed with people. No, at first, we just to fetch Jianmin and her bro to church but she was real late which angered my dad. We got to church and great… zack and I were kinda lost. Not becos we don’t know where to go but we don’t know what to do. But cut it short, we found our way to our group. We went to Malaysia and gotta pass 2 customs. Man, so sian. Cant even sleep properly. We got a hotel to stay in. so we checked in unpacked our stuff. We went for Worship and next was Workshop, means different people of age go to this place where different speakers will talk to us. Mine was how to maximize God-given potential. Says that we should do things in God name and all glory goes to him. God gets the glory, we get the story. Fair enough!

Then wash up and dinner with my group. I should interact more. We went for Service and Worship and yeah, the speaker talked about how we are born to win. We are born with a seed of greatness. And yes, people tend to look on their bad points than good ones. But that’s not what God want. We shouldn’t discourage ourselves just becos we have many bad points. Everyone is good in something, it’s a fact.

Then it was cell time. I don’t know about others but many people seem to be their cell very much. For me, well I didn’t have cell. So the admin people placed me in a cell. At first I don’t wanna be the same cell with my bro, then I was placed in Tampines 2 cell. But I got there. The people are indeed very active but I somehow don’t feel I was meant to be there. I don’t know, I can just feel it. I told God, this is not the cell for me, pls lead me to another one. Then suddenly, the leader of the cell asked me where my sch was. I said Pind Yi, near Bedok MRT. Then he said, huh, why u didn’t go to a Bedok cell, there is one. Come I bring u there…


Omg!! I thanked God man. He did hear my wish. It was not even a prayer but God still ans it. Oh I love him so much. He knows me full well. So I met Vanessa, she supposed to be the cell leader. I ask her some Qns about how I meet the people and how I can get to know them better. She told me not to worry and I was suppose come to her and she will lead me to the cell. So I went back to my room. There were 3 people counting my bro too. And im the room IC. Funny it sounds that when I bathe, I then talk to God… well… that’s me.

in the hall


2nd day

We woke up early at 6am and we got dressed and went for breakfast at 7.30. my group also went for breakfast. We were suppose to have Devotion time then breakfast but we have breakfast first since there was less people. So we went for Devotion and our leaders shared what our dreams are and what challenges we met. Then we got Worship and Workshop.


This time, in this workship, my cousin was speaking. He was talking about from we can be from average to great. In my opinion, he is a good speaker but he needs to earn the crowd attention more cos after a while, I could some people sleeping or talking to one another. But for me, I did my best to hear to every word. The thing I liked most was the short video about priorities. That.. was very inspiring. So inspiring it made me wanna create a new movie. This time, its gonna be simple. So err, Winston, boon, shaun, DY and some friends, if u read this. Be prepared cos im gonna call u soon. But my cousin gave a good point that we should put God first in our lives. U’ll never know that u can do all your other things too and u will succeed. And yay!! I can have the priorities video that my cousin have.


Then we went for the Ultimate Showdown. Its super cool. We played like many weird games. Like floorball but using sticks, soccer but we have to go all four, captain ball but using papaya and so on. We played a balloon game too but we must carried it with our legs. Its super scary and I was indeed scared cos someone will come running to me while running with a balloon on my leg. And that person will try to pop the balloon by stepping or attacking u. yeah, its quite scary. Im so sry, I couldn’t take any pic or video cos I didnt have my hp with me. Then we have a entire group pic. Its like 500 plus people in one pic so we gotta squeeze, haha. Then we tidy up and head back. Wash up and have dinner with my group. Then had Service and Worship. This is I was singing… haha. No la, I didn’t sing but a guy named Samuel was singing. His singing rockz man, I love him… love his singing I mean.


There was that time when we were praying then all the sudden, about 80% of the people spoke in tongues( spoke in a different language). Its like almost of the hall of people spoke like that and there was I saying… dear god… So yeah, is was kinda weird sight, to me. So I prayed that I could be touch by the Holy spirit and at least be heard by God. I went to my knees and raised my hands but a real longgg time. So long I got cramps and I could not stand up. It was way beyond my comfort zone. And u know what God said, he said NOTHING. Nothing at all.


I hear nothing but the cries of the people. I was like greatly disappointed. I went to Bedok cell and they were… real funny. I end up laughing and I think I really like the cell. So I thanked God cos he ans my prayer again and I think the cell was close to what I expect, which was good. So I told my cell about my counter with God which was nothing. They told me not to give up and not lose hope for God will speak to me. Just not at that time. So I went back to my room and pray for me, my bro, my friends, my room-mates and yeah, my wishes. Sleep again at 12 plus.

i was sleeping on the floor so u wont see me


3rd day

We woke up late. Quite late, really. Wooo, last night of the camp but I somehow didn’t wish it to end despite we got 2 Worship and my throat starts to hurt from all the singing. So we had breakfast… no I had breakfast. The others went for Devotion first. So when I got to them, it was time for breakfast so they left. I was with 2 girls in one entire room, it’s a big room. Don’t anyhow think. So I did my devotion. Im quite glad that almost everyone left, so the place is quiet. Man, God knows me dam well.


So we had Worship until 9.45 and it was time for the next workship. This time… God really spoke to me. Not that, he came down to speak with me. But he spoke through the speaker who was talking to us. He indirectly ans my Qns and my prayer. He talk about Re-thinking our values. Basically, its like thinking about your thinking. Don’t get it? Don’t worry about it. So anyway, he tell us not to focus plainly on people differences but slightly more on the similarities. So then we went for lunch there’s another workship but this is a gender workship. Means guys and girls are separated. Girls in hall, guys another hall, and a couple is speaking to us. The wife speaks to the girls and the husband speaks to us. He talked about sexuality and BGR( relationships). Don’t laugh! What he said was very true. Even though it was quite embarrassing but I believe many of us guys also face with problems with this. He also told us not to anyhow date girls just becos she’s nice or pretty. He said, the first girl u date should be a high chance u will marry her. That’s why its important to know her first and know her well, which I believe so.


then I was with Moses, he’s my pri sch friend. Soon, I must do this Thanking leader thingy. Means, my group write or sign on a hat and then give our leaders but we cannot let the leaders. So I was like rushing here and there, trying to get people to write on the hat but I cant let the leaders. And things don’t go according to plan cos we don’t have free time. So I rush and rush until I lost my bible, omg. How could I man!!!!! So we had Service and Worship and this time, we sang for like 3,5 hrs. hahah!! Cool eh? We sang we lose our voice. Then there was one song. Man, I really love it, I went to the front and starting jumping and singing. Omg, I really like the song. So we went for cell, we were playing some stupid game on who gets to share first. And we had burgers for lunch! Cool man.


But not everyone did shared so tmr in devotion we have to come together again to share. Yeah, the leader said so. but before, I got a video while the people are sharing. I did my best to take without them noticing, and err, sry I screw up a bit. Cos I didn’t exactly film their face. So anyway, I went to my room and starting writing letters to people. And yeah, I still couldn’t find my bible. I prayed someone could find it tmr and return it. And yeah, I slept like 2 plus, omg.

Moses and me, sry for the blur

charlene, my group leader

sry, ni forgotten their names

brown water, its disgusting


4th day

The last day of the camp. I’ll say im really gonna miss the camp. I went for devotion with my cell. I still have no bible. But I get to share my exp with my cell and how my prayer got answered. They were quite attentive, haha. We went for the last Service before we depart. This time, we were suppose to let our leaders pray for us. Whoever was prayed for, sit down so the leaders will know those who have been prayed yet. I sat down ask God what he really wanted to say. I continuously ask and prayed, cos throughout the whole camp, I didn’t have a counter with God. I ask for quite some time then I hear something…


what do u see? Those were the words. So I looked around. Then I know… I saw how the Holy Spirit really move through the people. Many were crying, some fell on the ground and others got to support them. Some fell and cried, just cried. Many spoke in tongues. And there I was… looking at everyone. At that time, I could have guaranteed I did felt something. Then we prayed for the P6 and others whoever wants to speak in tongues. I was unwilling but then I decided to go to the front. Then the pastor pray and really prayed that the Holy Spirit would come and touch us. Guess what? The next moment the people started speaking in tongues. I saw 6-7 P6 received the gift of speaking in tongues. I was so filled with awe. I didn’t feel jealour of why they could speak but I cant. I didn’t feel freaked out. I just feel happy for them. It was a rare feeling towards me.


I clapped along with them… so anyway, after that, we went for lunch. I talk to some people and we went for our luggage. There always come a time to say good bye. We got ready to go. And lastly, back at SG, we waited for our sis for an hour. Don’t ask me why. Maybe the bus just got delayed… by a lot.

packing up








Movie Review- Avatar

Rating- 9.8/10_5 stars

I have high expectation for this movie. I always thought a futuristic world in CG would be real real hard or a fail. But this movie indeed took me by surprise. Its soo good. I thought getting 5 stars twice was impossible but this movie got 5 stars 4 timesss and still counting. Omg. James Cameron is not self-proclaimed the King of the World, he IS the King of the World. The story maybe cliché to some but the way it is being explained, thats what makes it so realistic. I at first thought James C could create Warcraft. CGI effects are crazily awesome. Action is not too shaky or unclear. Romance building is quite nicely done. Ideas of a new World are unbelievable. I never seen such a hard working film since Lord of the Rings. This movie really deserves 5 stars, no doubt. I bet Sam Worthington work ultra hard on this movie knowing that this is his first time doing a main actor role. U cant helped it but enjoyed the movie even if u plan to hate it. It will definitely be recommended by everyone. I really give credit to the amount of effort put it. James C has truly outdone himself. It could be his best piece of work ever! It beats every movie made in 2009 by a mile. Three times three cheers to James Cameron.
