woohoo!
it's a another year of camp, and it's so great (:
i'm proud to be a brown triber :DDDDDDDDD
but what's more? I'M PROUD TO BE A CHILD OF GOD!

this few days in RJC has been really great.
we've been cheering and doing our best to perform well in the games.
hah, thinking back ...
WAR GAME on the third day which took place at bishan park.
we had the best land, and it was really the best!
cos it was near the P.O.W (prisoners of wars),
and it was quite far from the other tribes.
P.O.W is a place where the people will torture you!!!
till the end of the time...
well, unless you have the resurrection coupon, ha.
and i remembered...
that we use to hide in the behind big rocks & tree trunks,
getting ready to capture every single one of them.
we had the team spirit within us and it was super duper fun :D
also got to thank the tribe leader for planning well in this war game.
YEAH! :D

anyway, i had to thank God for answering our prayers.
the weather had been rainy during these few days,
perhaps it's becos of the season?
i'm not really too sure.
but THANKS to God to clear the dark clouds for us :D
i was so glad over this matter. hahahah.

not just about games, God has been speaking to me during these few days too :D
which was something good, right? teehees.
i've really felt that i'm living in His presence during these days.
and it was awesome to hear Pastor Matt Fielder preach :D
he was indeed a humorous guy! preach it on!!!

i really felt that this camp was totally different than last year's.
i'm gonna be in that rescue team, the liberator, the one God is calling for.
i want to shine the light of salvation to lost souls!
come on, lets share God's love & the joy with them :D

oh.. ha. did i mention?
i had been washing my hair in the toilet basin.
FOR 3 DAYS STRAIGHT! YO!
woots! so fun... lol.

(:
x'mas bash this saturday.
i've invited some of my friends, but they didn't wanted to come...
oh well. but i won't get discouraged!
i'll always be reminded that God is still there for me.
as long as i've tried my very best (:

YES YOU! YOU GOT TO COME AND KNOW ABOUT THIS GOOD NEWS!

out to town during the afternoon today.

woke up late.
was late for 2 hours after meeting time.
weiqin left for work after i reached. (zzz)
was left with me and huiyi.
we shopped around at far east plaza, and i bought a red patent belt for x'mas :D
wanted to buy a turtleneck, but didn't had enough cash.
went to Tangs & Heeren after that, but there's nothing which interest us.
walked to Wisma Atria then, for my 'early dinner' at Food Republic :D

alright, a very simple day though.
hadn't met huiyi for almost a year, so we didn't had much to talk about.
but at least we don't see each other as strangers.
at first, i was really afraid that i kept praying to God that we can get along well today, ha.
--

my relationship with God has been growing during these few days.
i did my quiet time more seriously and learn a lot from Him too.
can't wait for Yi Camp next Monday, wheee!

2007-12-11T01:49:00.000+08:00

i've moved... again, to somewhere farfar away.
but no worries, i'll continue to update here (:
if i have the time...

2007-12-08T04:14:00.000+08:00

whooooo. it's 4:14am! just another few more mins to finish the mission trip video (: meanwhile, something to share. who is HUNGRY now and wants a plate of spaghetti?

thanks jielong!

2007-12-07T23:25:00.000+08:00

dined at cine's suki sushi for lunch with (too many to mention, photos will show ya). zzz. cck's one closed down and no ones knows about it, and we traveled all the way to cine's.

WHY? cos suki sushi is totally love and nobody wanted to go sakae -.-

uh yep, when we reached there, there was a long queue. but all of us prayed it will be our turn soon. and guess what, muhahaha. the big group of guys standing in front of us left after a while. we had buffet and we really ate a lot... a lot, our orders even got mixed up and i had a double of tamago handroll, 2 other handrolls which pop out from no where, extra bowl of miso soup, and a PLATE OF FRIED TOFU which the other table purposely ordered for us when we were already bloated! etc. overall, this buffet was really worthed it. nobody wants to talk about food after we left :D

2007-12-05T22:04:00.000+08:00

i just realised that i've been trying to be focusing on God too much during this mission trip, no wonder i didnt even missed anyone back in S'pore X: right, till today when i touched down, dharmen went, '' CHERYL, DID YOU MISS ME? '' hah (: i shall try to summarize what about the happenings during this mission trip. (:

thanks God for arranging a roommate for me, well, thanks for answering my small prayer request. tata, i had Wanyi as my roommate (: but i slept most of the nights with her and Rebecca. it turned out to be 3 people in a room, back in Nong Khai.

oh yeah, after we reached the Thailand airport, we traveled an approx 10-12 hrs of coach journey to Nong Khai, which was at the northern part ot Thailand. hah, it was coldddd, esp in the morning and night.

during the first few days, my team went to schools to reach out to all the '' nong nong-s. '' they were all lively and friendly. i had a great time to share with some of them, and what's the best was, we see salvations among them (:

street evangelism was something more new to me. perhaps i didnt really walked around at the streets to approach some strangers to share Christ with last year. but we did that this year, before every night rally. it started off to be a little scary at first, cos there wasn't much translators around us afterall. but we still continued to share using our limited Thai words which we know. and guess what? Holy Spirit guided us along as we speak to them in Thai, and when we asked them '' Kao Jai Mai (understand), '' they would normally reply '' Kao Jai (: '' YAY! i love to see people being able to understand me. else, i would be like a fool speaking rubbish. but thanks to God, for his help to break this communication barrier between us and the Thai people. and YES, people came to Christ cos we shared to them :D

i love night rally (: we would first break up into smaller teams to invite the villages to come to the night rally. this phrase shall not be forgotten:

Tee nee, mee gan sedang.
Tee sala klang ban, neng toom.

hah, it's means something like there would be a programme going on the the center of your village at 7pm. yeps. during night rally, the programmes are almost alike to what we planned for the schools which we go, but we did prayed for healings for those villagers who weren't feeling well.

i remembered that there was this lady who had headache or some other pain which needs her to eat 23 pills a day, and she has been eating for 2 years already. but after praying for her, she was healed (: praises goes to God!!! 23 pills a day is no joke alright. and there was this lady who has pain at the right side of her whole body, from the top to the bottom. so Ade reminded me to pray specifically to God, and i did. every single area of pain in her, i prayed one by one (: so after 1 prayer, she immediately got healed. at first, she couldn't raise up her right hand all the way, but after praying, she could do that! :D i could feel that she was amazed and overjoyed over the matter, hah. well, God receives all the thanks and glory. he's so amazing!

i seriously enjoyed every mission trip which i went. thanks Ade for the prayer. i realised that i've came out of my comfort zone, to step out and have the courage to share with strangers and also in another language which i learned within 2 weeks. well, also including the ones last year (?)

there are so many challenges in my life, and i've got to face it one by one, day by day. i'm so thankful to God for using me mightily during this trip, in every area, even in things which i'm weak in :D right now, i see that there are so limited of time to reach out to the whole world. come on...

i miss the weather in Nong Khai now, the cooling weather, hah. but now, i'm in s'poreeeee, hot weather uh. haha. (but it just rained, hah!) i love everyone in Godchasers and in the kingdom of God!

there's really a difference between last year and this year mission trip. hah. yay, i've been more prayerful now (: goodbye people. Phra Zhao rakoon mak mak!

2007-11-25T23:11:00.000+08:00

I MISS COOK!!!

booooooo. i miss everyone from Cook! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

OBS was great! you'll never imagine what i had for breakfast & lunch during this 5 days,
.
..
...
....
.....
BREADS & BISCUITS!
so sad. i was dreaming of all those nice and yummy food that you guys are enjoying while i was in pulau ubin. i wanted milk tea so much. well, dinner was cooked by us, and it was, a great experience though. and you know what? WE HAD SPAGHETTI!! but it didn't tasted nice. zzz.

sea expedition was the best outdoor activity :D went kayaking for 8 hours, approx 90km around the whole island. super tired. luckily there wasn't any rain. and now, i'm so tanned! like charcoal, but better than that. and i had 2 different and obvious tone of color from my shoulder to my arm. one part was fair, the other was... charcoal. teehees. and ya, i had so called sunburn on my head. the scalp has gone totally red, like blood like that. sigh. pain pain pain.

woke up at 5am almost every morning, you wont know how i really felt. we must pitch, and un-pitch the tents everyday. the trainers weren't like those in Camelot. they were much much more better!

during this camp, i learned to be dirty ): i didnt get to bathe for one whole day, cos there wasn't any shower in campsite 2 )': neither there was a toilet. and so, we had to like... do our business in the bushes. zzz. many terrible stuffs happened at campsite 2. my tent collapsed during the night and it was pouring too.. i had a terrible sleep that night.

overall, this camp was really very fun, indeed. shouldn't miss it out yeah. get to know new friends, gain more experience in the outdoor activities. hey! isn't that great!

would be leaving to Thailand this Tues for mission trip. woohoo! so fast i'm leaving again. please pray for me to have a good room mate. lol. cos... odd number for girls uh. pleaseeeeeeee.

0800am - mission fund raising.
0230pm - westmall.
0245pm - meetup with Jazreel to take backpack.
0315pm - meetup with Sinkuan to take book.
0345pm - meetup with Yizhen to take track pants.

later. write testimony, make dots and stars for skits, pack bag for OBS (tomorrow), sleep.

tedious tasks, though it doesn't seemed to. i traveled many places just to get something from each individual. as i'm going to OBS tomorrow, i want to get everything done by today. firstly, thank God for the amount of money he provided for our mission fund raising! without Him, we wont be able to raise up so much, especially in a day. not $500, not $1000, but around $11,000 today!!! thanks God!!!

next...
alright, i love it. it's not drawn by me anyway, and it's a book cover which come along with a notebook (: what i'm showing you is the front cover. whee. time to continue on with my task already. if not i'll have no time ):

2007-11-17T00:08:00.000+08:00

dinner with 15 CRAZY PEOPLE yesterday at marina south! ate quite a lot and played number games.

our dress code for girls was little miss series!! and we all wore little miss tees! everyone's eyes was like on us wherever we went. yay, cos we're all sisters :D

mission training today. new skits, and sang the same song. i'll do my best to master the thai songs, practice the skits and brush up on my thai. cos i'll be away to OBS, hence i'll miss a lot of mission trainings. thanks ade and sis wanping for allowing me to go! san sern Pra Zhao!!

2007-11-05T15:56:00.000+08:00

:D

haha, i had this for lunch at Sushi Tei @ Holland V. japanese food are really nice, but i prefer Italian much more (: i want to try out chocolate fondue at Swensens or Haagen Daaz (!!!) but it's quite expensive.

went to east coast for a cycle. it was quite tiring, dinner at KFC which we stop by while on the bus. tsk, i've spend almost 20 bucks today :/

1 question i would probably ask when i meet God face to face. it should be, 'why do you think all girls love shopping, but not the guys?' does it every came across your mind? hmm, i dont understand why guys dont like shopping. there must be a reason behind it i guess. what do you think? haha, i just received my orders from hong kong today, fast!

i will be going for the encounter retreat tomorrow, and staying overnight at church (: whee. going to sleep on airbed again! got to prepare my bedsheet and pack my bag later. nites people.

2007-11-04T13:51:00.000+08:00

will i still love God if?

this question can actually make me tear. cos it reminds me of this movie i watched during sermon today, 'Facing The Giants', and it's a great movie! when it comes to this question where Coach Grant asked his wife, 'will you still love God even if you can't have any children?' well, it goes the same to me (not about having children of cos), but in any circumstances. what a question, and i always thought whether is it God who is testing us.

if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. if. how would i hope that this word would never exist.

i would definitely want to honor God and love Him forever as i even see Him face to face. God is an awesome God and nothing is impossible for Him. I'm serving such a great Father! :D and it's time for some reflections and confession.

2007-11-01T15:57:00.000+08:00

i love the sea, i love the breeze.

if you're wondering whether it a view from my room, nope you're wrong. but i would definitely love it if i could see the sea every minute even when i'm sleeping. i took those when i'm having early breakfast with the other 2. beautiful right? and now, i'll show you my tiny room.

11069. it's really tiny, but just nice for us i suppose. the opposite room was the one with balcony and it was a Japanese family staying, cool.

and yes, i love all the food. spend 80% of my time eating and eating. it's simply too delicious and i love the way the garnish the food, very attractive (: i want to learn from the chef!!!

at Penang

is Penang known for their good food? i'm not really sure. but this is a very funny way of their steamboat which i call. but they call this Lok Lok. and see, we really ate a lot in Penang!

no much pictures taken in Puhket. but basically, i went for THAI MASSAGE!!! for 500 baht (: no shopping, good heh. p/s: i really saved a lot of money during this trip.

weiting took it. whatever it is, it looks a little scary to me. and yeah, it comes from the sea, so i didn't ate it. and what's the name of this creature. i thought it was a stingray at first, hah.

yay, i love cruise. i want to work there, and i'll be the food manager of the buffet. spaghetti is a must. lastly, i got to thank God for all these (: more events coming up! toodles.
