Away From Home - Back For Holidays

Over the past week or so, a few of our senior youths are back home for their summer holidays. I shouldn't call them senior youths, should I? Maybe call them ... young men. Haha.. Doug, Thomson, Melvyn, Ronny and Leon came back and last night we went out for CB with Jenny, the SS and Hannah T. It was really nice to see them again and I can't remember the last time so many of them came back at the same time. Mostly it was one here or two there. It was good that we sat outside CB cos we really laughed a lot over jokes served mainly cold and good natured ribbing.

It's truly nice to see them all growing up and doing well in their studies and work and also that we can still get along. Perhaps we might not click as close as before but that's a fact of life. There's always the future for us to click, isn't it? Great to see you all back!

Amazing Time

We had a great weekend oh, didn't we? It all started on Sat morning, when a few of us met up in church to load up Jenny's tank, aka her dad's hilux with the props. So we had Edwin up on the hilux trying to organise the props, with all the odd angles and design which included 3 door frames, 2 signboards: one big and one small and an altar, side rails. So there we were, all sweating in the sun while Edwin tried to sort out this jigsaw puzzle. Ok ok, so only Edwin was out in the sun while we stood in the shade waiting for him (besides, doesn't he need to be out in the sun doing something about his skin?). Then Adriel couldn't resist sun-tanning as well and got up on the car to help Edwin (well, we might have forced Adriel a bit.. it's ok lah.. u don't need to know that.. hehehehe). Meanwhile, Luiz had called up everyone and said don't leave without him while he was at tuition. Then Adriel, Jacqueline and I left in my car to tapau some food and drinks while we left the Siehs to seek professional help (ooo.. that kinda came out wrong.. I meant we had professional help loading the hilux, hehe) and pick up Luiz on the way. While we tapau, I of course nicely remembered Luiz (ahem!) still stuck at his tuition centre, and called Jenny to remind her about him. Jenny by that time had gone halfway to the hotel and forgotten about waiting for Luiz! Urgh.. luckily we were still at the Likas shops.. hmmmm... so we waited for this one lost sheep then we were off.

By the time we got to the hotel, it was 12 and we only managed to start rehearsal about 12.45pm. Jenny had to make some adjustments to the formation because the space was really tight. The ballroom had 52 tables so Jenny decided that the marchers had to take small petite steps now. A round of applause for Jenny for adapting the formation, and also for the marchers who took everything in their strides. We managed to finish rehearsal at 2pm and then it was off to a late lunch. Adriel had to go tuition (sob sob) and while Jenny, Edwin, Luiz and I were at yoyo, he sent a sms to Luiz saying he misses us so the 4 of us decided to all send him sms telling him we were in yoyo while he's in tuition, and not to miss us so much, it was worth every 3 sen it cost us to send him the sms.. lol! Yoyo.. NICE..

Jenny, Edwin and I got to the hotel by 6pm. Jenny and I were dressed nicely while Edwin came in his school uniform.. awww.. Edwin could still pass for secondary school student ba, aiseh.. The marchers were all in school uniforms and some were borrowed since a few of our youths are drop outs.. oh sorry, I meant, graduates from secondary schools, hehe. You know, that night we saw a lot of clones walking around.Let's see, we had 2 Luizs, 2 Aldens, 2 Jacquelines (those 2 scary oh, even hairstyles also similar ooo), 1 Hannah (but the real Hannah was walking around wearing normal clothes while the Hannah clone wore uniform ~ isn't that a great reason to have a clone?), 2 Adriels (scariest.. as if this world needs 2 of them) Hahaha.. sorry guys and girls, I can't resist pulling your legs. One auntie actually told one parent, "kesian your girl still wear school uniform come to the dinner." But you all were amazing! I had so many good reviews of your performance. Your entrance was really spectacular and suited the occasion oh. You all look great and did great too. Luiz kept good control of the flag while going past the VVIP table so he didn't wipe their faces and hair with it nor did he poke anyone in the stomach with the flag pole (Am sure Puan Lorna was relieved too!)

After their performance, everyone changed to their dinner dress/shirts. Wah.. I didn't know you can look so good one.. lol! (Aiyo, I should stop writing liao, but I know those away from home are all reading this and laughing hard) But Jenny and my work were not done yet. We still had to make sure the rest of the scenes went well and they did, praise the Lord. Everyone had fun and laughed a lot. And I noticed everyone took a lot of photos. Check out fb and picasa for these photos ok? I'll try load up the photos from the official photographers when I get them.

After the dinner, we waited for most people to leave before we loaded up the props back to the Hilux to ferry them back to the church. Halfway through the journey, I saw the big signboard had flipped backwards and hung out the back! We had to stop halfway while the guys fixed that. Whew.. luckily there weren't any incident. We got back and unloaded everything, then it was off to McD for a drink. Poor Clement, he wanted to come along but he's a church staff now working during his month long school break and he had duties hanging balloons at the front porch so he couldn't join us. Don't worry la Clement, there will be other times!

What a great way to end the night, drinks with good friends! Praise the Lord for His goodness, our celebration went well, everyone was happy and I'm sure our Lord was happy too! Glory to His Name!

40th Anniversary Dinner

So.. after all the preparation and practices, tomorrow we will be having Christ Church's 40th Anniversary Dinner. We youths will be the opening scene of the drama so make sure all your uniforms are washed, ironed and all clean ok? It will be a blast, I'm sure of it.

I take this opportunity to thank all the youths who are involved in this drama, from being marchers who look real good in formation, to those who're helping out in the backdrop and scene change. A special mention goes to Jenny, who have tirelessly shouted and drilled you all in your formation. I'm sure the guys give her a headache with their clowning around.. and going to toilet at the least convenient moment of rehearsal! Thank you Jen for your energy, drive and your support! You're the best!

Lastly, don't forget to bring your dinner tickets tomorrow night, because tickets are needed for admission! Someone gave me a scare this afternoon... o_o sms me say he lost his ticket! Urgh... he found it finally under the PSP.. the rest of you.. please make sure you have your tickets ah! See you all tomorrow rehearsal at 12pm in the hotel!

Healing Night

Tonight was the 2nd programme for our anniversary month, yes, in case some of you don't know, Christ Church is celebrating our 40th Anniversary this month and Chillin was the first programme, Healing Night was second. We had songs and testimony tonight and of course a time of healing and prayers. It was a really great evening.

We have a group from USA joining us in our celebration, Chozen. They are a talented group and man.. we were treated to great music tonight. If you like jazz/blues, then this is the group for you. I truly enjoyed their singing.. it ministered to me, and I believe to many, if not all that were there tonight. The testimony was also touching, one sister shared how God healed her of cancer.

Wednesday there's a Worship Night at 8pm in church, so please.. you all gotta come. It's really great to be ministered to so cancel all your other plans and come!
