Hey guys! Hmmm... Sorry to disappoint you guys, but I don't think I'll be writing my 200th post after all. Well, the decision to make it a class project was approved, and I'll be doing it with my class. I think we'll come up with something at the end of the 2 years at RJ. And well, I'll try to tell you guys more about my classmates on the way instead ok?
Friday was a really really fun day. PE was awesome, cos I was very very on form during soccer. I played on the right flank, with my classmates Jheeva on the left attacking flank and Mam in the centre. We were a good team, created lots of chances but didn't really get to score. Sounds like Liverpool right? Coincidentally, Mam is a huge huge Liverpool fan. Haha. My best run was from midfield down the right flank, during which I wrong-footed 2 defenders. At the corner flag, I managed to get loose from the marking defender and cut into the penalty box. It was 1 opponent vs us 3 then, and I crossed, but Mam couldn't score. Shane did quite well at defending that ball. Yup. Really cool.
After school was the Raffles Rock Concert Auds, and my band played the three songs that we'd prepared for the O2 concert on the following Monday. We did really well I think. It was so so fun and the music was very powerful. And we got past the auditions, and we'll be in the Raffles Rock concert!!! All glory to God. Then it was Band Age's turn and they did well too.
After that me and Rach made our way to my house where we were holding bass and guitar classes for the junior band people. It was fun too. But I had no idea how to teach the bassists about rhythm. So it was up to Tim. The best part of it was when we played Magnificent with only the bass and guitar and Rachel singing. It sounded so awesome. You guys can go check out Rach's BLOG for something funny from Tim. Yup.
Sunday was great. Had an awesome time of worship. Felt really bad when Yan Leen started to tear though. Just like when Rach and Char teared before/after the previous two main services. The stress level is so high, but dunno how to ease it. Just wishing I could've done something. Other than that the playing was solid, and I could feel his presence.
Monday... First day of O2. Met two new people from my OG, Yong Chun from Andersen and Michelle from Chung Cheng. I really clicked with Yong Chun really fast. He's a real nice guy, really sporting. We had OG breakfast, then played UNO and Bridge, then it was free time. Me and Guoren had to prepare for the O2 concert...
O2 concert was a blast. Narpal's band is really solid... Karthik was playing bass for them, Hans was on drums, Boyle was on the guitar. I don't know the name of the other guitarist though. I think they were the best band that day. My band did ok I guess, kept it simple. While we were playing the song Guoren composed, I could see some eyes closed in worship. (Hopefully its not cause they were sleeping) I believe that they were touched by the lyrics and were worshipping inside. Kenny's band wasn't as good as during talentime and I think they were the worst on that day, cos they decided to play Stand By Me, which is totally not their style, although it was their best song.
Well, Tuesday was batch give, and it was tiring and I didn't have much to do cos the house I was assigned to didn't have anybody in. So spent the time sending the supplies to the Family Service Centre in Bukit Ho Swee. Went with Narpal and Heex in a taxi, then walked back to Tiong Bahru Plaza McDonalds.
Well, Chelsea drew 1-1, and they got kicked out of the Champions League. Haha. Too bad for Chelsea fans. Juventus and Villarreal are through. Good for them. I'm waiting to see whether Benfica or Liverpool make it through tonight...
God taught me something that day. I'm glad about that. He showed me the fatal flaw in my faith... I'm not vocal enough. When Dali saw the cross around my neck, he told me he never knew I was christian though we had been in the same class for 2 years. I need to do something about that... Please help me pray about it. I always thought people could see Christ through you as long as you embodied the values of Christianity, but anybody in any other religion can do that. Another thing you have to do is declare your love for God out loud to others, which I'm guilty of not doing. I'm trying my best... I believe I can do it.
Ever since I've started doing Masterlife, I've seen lots of flaws in the relationship between me and God that I've never seen before. I always thought I was on the right track, but I realise I have to change some things. And I'm thankful for that.
Well, hope those doing Masterlife also get to realise some things. That includes all you YE people 17 years and above. Yup. Haha. Well. All the best for the rest of the week!
