i am back!

ok. exams are fine, considering the amt of study i did.. i think i'm gonna pass with God's mercy. seriously.
ok. i'm working darn hard for the next exams. mark my words

so so so much has happened.


mission trip was totally way way way too cool.
this yr, i've learnt alot alot alot. so much, i can't contain it. literally. (yea that song).

so blessed i can't contain it
so much i gotta give it away


thailand, herself has thought me so much. the sincere smiles of the villages and the hopeful laughter of the children is simple priceless. trust me. i want sara to come with us next year. really.
nonetheless, we grew alot spiritually, as well as in terms of unity.
when i got there, joel, emma and aunty elaine left. there was jsut jasper, me, andrew, gland, solo, ulrica, rach, kathy, georgamay and jasmine. just the few of us.
dances became really repeative and tiredness really got into us. just the few of us, we grew together.
although i went there so much abt half passed the trip, i could felt the battle.

seriously, many a times, i felt that i wasn't useful. was there to just, increase the manpower statistically, not even physically. constantlt, i knew that out faithful prayer partners back in sg were praying hard for us.

this yr, for me was very much different. i did lesser dances and medical work. i was taking photos for the team most of the time. chalked up 2275 photos in 8 days. this yr, i had to keep a look out of my surroundings and be watchful literally. really. i'm still always in awe of God' creation. always during the journeys in the van/pickup/car.. i'd never fail to take photos outside of the vehicle, and always find myself unable to sleep although v tired. i simply love the land- away from everything.

there, i didn't have to worry abt not having a hp with me. no emails. no meetings. with the exception of my textbooks. i knew that i had God, and i had my bros and sis in Christ.

i guess to cut it all short, God is faithful. we had a minor accident and left the convery in a panic state for a short moment. but, God was still faithful and kept the convey as one.
oh yes. travelling off the shores of sg, passing through countless security checks alone is an experience. i get the stares. i get the questions.
