i know i haven't been blogging for quite a while due to my enriching holiday plans! (:

youth conference was a blast. literally.
and that was the first time i've sat through a consecration night, the first time i felt fear when i realized i couldn't stand up for the Lord, the first time i cried out to the Lord, the first time i heard my prayers answered through Psalm 62:8, and the first time i felt joy so indescribable.
thank you Pastor Charlie and my sunday school class, and everyone at Bethany that made me feel God's love so real ♥ 

and then there's ycamp. epic camp, quoting many.
to be honest, i really felt quite guilty at the start of it because i seemed to be contributing so little to the team, and the sole contribution that i had was pretty much screwed up (i.e. comm shirt color cui) and i had doubts on whether i can click well with my buddy, whether we can hype up the crowd and whether we can inspire the volunteers.
i wouldn't say that it was a perfect job done, nor was it the best that i could have given, but i really learnt a lot from this camp and i thank God for that. i can still vividly remember how the y-confidence boys teared when their buddies left, and how everyone just started crying and cheering for them during the prize presentation. thank you chimpanzee. and thank you buddy, i really enjoyed working with you (:

looking forth, china trip.
to be honest, it is a mixed feeling. on one hand, it is like an escapee from this sunny (more like rainy now though) island and to relax and camwhore (and shop maybe?). but on the other hand, i miss out on so much gathering and fellowship here in singapore. especially christmas. ):

so if there is one thing that i wish for this christmas,
this following song summarizes it really well (:



here's an early merry christmas to all! (:
(lest i can't get through china's firewall)
