Hey guys... Hmm... Its been like more than a week since I've updated? Sorry bout that. I've been at camp to prepare myself physically, mentally and spiritually for the performance at Paragon. K. More about the camp...
Pre-Camp
Tuesday and Wednesday were insanely hectic days, especially Wednesday, the day of the camp. I thank God for hvaing brought me through those days.
Stuff I did:
1. Complete Storyline for FFX until before final battle with Sin
2. Go Bowling
3. Go to collect $50 from school
4. Go Jamming for the gig on 27th
5. Pack my bags
6. Go for Piano
Hmmm... Thats all I guess. It was kinda like a mad rush for me on Wednesday, when the collection in school was at 10am, piano was at 11am, and jamming was at 1:30pm.
Bowling scores:
108, 86, 71, 92, 89, 132
Underneath the Son
Composed by Teo Guo Ren
Verse 1
All is broken, humbleness is all that's been left
Liberty for all is free
In the darkness, we used to be locked in within
But now it’s all in history
Verse 2
This is victory, He did all these things to make free
So that all could come clean
If every knee, underneath the sun would bend in
This would mean everything
Chorus
If every eye and heart be opened
Underneath the Son, would all nations triumph
Do you hear the angels singing?
Underneath the Son, beckoning you to come
Verse 3
Look at the world, caught up with the works of its own
Refuse to live and forgive
There is one thing, caught between just you and Him
This lonely thing called sin
Bridge
It's only You oh Father, who can make these things all right again
Bring Your people to this land that you’ve prepared
Camp
Well... So much has happened during the camp, including all those little things and fun stuff. I feel the Sec 1 bunch is real fun to hang out with, especially with my bros, Shaunald, Nat and Marcus providing all the entertainment. Plus JS whos a bit blur, it was real fun. Haha. Well, AMEN! The Sycamore Tree Roxs.
Practicing for all the dances has taught me one simple thing. Focus. Not only on what you do, but on the one you love as well, God. Not getting caught up in your own sense of pride and achievement, but giving everything else back to him, as the glory recieved its not yours, its Gods. And lastly not to get "distracted by the other pretty dancers on stage". (Quoted from Tim)
Some notes of encouragement to those I know in no particular order...
David & Dan
Hey man! You've been a real inspiration throughout the camp, and you've thought us a lot and given us lots of good laughs as well. Must be tough dancing in the costume (I think you know which one). Haha. Thanks for everything. Wow, Dan you're totally awesome. You're so enthusisatic about all that you do, and you're real fun as well. All the best for the performance!
Charissa
Hey!! Liverpool rocks. I think you know already, but just in case, Liverpool beat Deportivo Saprissa 3-0 and lost 1-0 to Sao Paulo in the final to claim second place. I think they did ok... But it would have been awesome if they won yeah? Wish both you and Liverpool all the best in your future endeavours. Don't worry about the acting, I think you'll do great!
Melvin
Hey man, its been fun talking to you, well, for both us quiet and cool guys, I guess its been an awesome time. Lets continue to learn how to talk more. Thanks for the hard work you've put into helping out!!!
Amanda C.
Hmm... Heard about your appeal, and hope thats going well. May God show us his work in your life and provide you with the school you desire, but at the same time, may he let his will for you be done. You're an awesome dancer, nobody can disagree with that and may the school you're appealing for see that. All the best for the 23rd and 25th!
Sarah
Hey! You've been a real fun assistant leader and a great dance partner. Hear how you protected Juan from Tim, and you asked the Sec 1 guys for help. What an awesome sense of righteousness. Lets continue to focus on God as well as pray for everyone! I'll be praying for your results...
Mel
Hey!!! Thanks for always talking to me through MSN as well as messages... Each message you send me makes me real glad that I have such an awesome friend who cares so much about me. Well, thanks for being my closest childhood friend! Really appreciate it! =) I'm real touched be everything you've done for me.
Shu
Well... Congrats for getting what school you wanted! Hmm... Saw the post on your BLOG, and I think that all that you've said makes an awesome lot of sense. That post was a huge inspiration to me and I believe to those who read it as well. Lets continue to talk about God's awesome power! Amen.
Juan
Happy birthday! Wow. Finally 18 eh? Wonder what I'll be like when I'm 18... Anyways, you're doing an awesome job in the skit. The newscaster role is seriously not easy. And thanks for serving in the cworship ministry if all your heart, all your mind, and all your soul. Thanks!
Rach
Hey hey!! Saw the message you wrote on my paper. Thanks for that! Well, I can definitely say you're an awesome awesome dancer and an inspiration to everyone. Well... Looking forward to seeing you in RJ, and I believe the Lord will continue to provide for you through your studies and school life! I'll be praying for your aunt too! Yups!
Jon & Paul
This is a Rastafarious Amorphilus Nostradamic Delentatious Ostentatious Moo message. Otherwise know as a RANDOM message. Haha. Seriously, your script rocks! Good job! You both have been working so hard on everything, and being directors is not easy... You guys rock!
Ernest
Good acting! Your lines were awesome. Your memory must be real real real good. Thanks for talking to me and telling me about your skit training. You'll be in Malaysia on the 25th right? We'll miss you and your acting! You rock!
Not forgetting all the leaders! You guys are the ones that have been pulling us through this entire experience, and I guess you guys must be really tired after all that. Well, have a good rest and with your leadership, bring us to the promised land!
I've learnt to encourage and give thanks for my friends, no matter what circumstances I'm in, or they're in. I wanna help them with their spiritual journeys and I wanna be there for them no matter what happens. Cos they're such awesome people, and although we might be smaller than any other church, our trust, faith and perseverence in the spirit is not any less. Lets go guys! Rock on for God! Amen.
