400th post!
11 months to ORDDDDD! (Congrats to aniki who just ORDed =))
The previous week's been difficult... Into my first official week of driving course, and as predicted, the only tough part about it is the instructors scolding you all the time, and thats the part where the day seems especially long. Theory, parking and simulator lessons are pretty easy.
So far I've passed my highway code and landrover assessments, which certify me to drive on public roads... Next tuesday you may see me around the east of Singapore driving lol.
Accomodation, food and the quality of facilities here seem pretty poor in comparison to Stagmont camp... To think that so many people in Stagmont are complaining about the food. From now on I'll select very good everytime a food survey turns up back at Stagmont camp.

YM Camp...
Well, initially because of driving course I didn't want to go at all. Cos it would mean instantly coming for camp after book out, as well as booking in later in the day after camp ended. Which equals to no time to do much.
But of course, God was gracious... He helped me complete my "homework" during the duration of the camp. It was great that my group members didn't complain when I didn't help them out during bidding sessions, cos I was doing my "homework" during that time.
Overall, had a lot of fun. For pics... Go ahead to my facebook account if you have one, look for either Mel Goh or Sarah Teo under my friends. You'll probably see lots of pics. I didn't learn too much during the camp to tell the truth, but it was a real great refresher, as well as a source of confirmation that I belonged to YM as a leader.
Every single day I praised the Lord, because I knew every single moment in the camp that He was telling me that this was where my service would lie for a long time to come. Seeing all the young uns grow up is pretty wonderful, rewarding, and inspiring. When each of them realise that God is sovereign... Those are the best moments.

Japan Japan Japan Japan
Japan is very good.
(sung to the tune of Dango Daikazoku)
Pardon the randomness. Here are the pics for Japan. (Though I only got a couple of days worth after my phone ran out of batt a few times.)

Our destination: Sapporo!
One of the reasons I love winter: the whiteness, the purity, the beauty. Daisuki!
A random map of a park... It looks like chinese but don't be fooled! Its jap. Or is it? Heh.
Another point in the case of winter being an awesome season. Kirei! In both senses of the word.
Beer, made fresh. Not my cup of tea. Of course, it all makes sense because its beer, not tea. (Pardon the random random.)
Not having too much fun cos of the cold right, monkeys? Just like my bros lol.
My mom the crab killa. Ok time for a jap lesson! Crab in jap = kani. Hotpot in jap = nabe. So what did I eat all day in Japan? Put the words together yourself.
Bear, oooh scary! And no Aniki and Alvin, its not the bear you think it is, although I was in Japan. (Anime joke, apologies if you don't understand)
What good is an auto door if you have to push it? Nonononono. All you have to do is push the rectangular button you see before you an the door will slide to the left. Neat, huh? The only thing you wish is that jap signs/instructions could be more clearer.
I should've known I'd find this, right Richmond? How many branches do you own? Lol.
