Today is really a tiring day for many of us who went to help out for the fund raising event. Woke up at 0745 to wash up and head down to Heeren to meet Tai Meng and volunteers to set up the booth for the event. After setting up and went thru some briefings, we starts to make the balloons and take them out to sell. However after a while, the weather started to turn bad, it began with drizzling and then heavy rain. We are being restricted to the shelters to sell the balloons. Thankfully, after a few hours, the rain began to turn small and eventually stops. After that, we began to sell the balloons at a lower price to try to clear stock .

Thank God that the participating teams are able to sell off quite a lot of balloons, thus eventually help us to achieve our target. I actually quite like to be involved in this kind of events, think i will definitely help out if there is any opportunity in the future. Cos it help me to build up contacts, and at the same time interact with people :) Alright got to go and rest if not cannot wake up for tomorrow service.

Today is yet another fruitful day for me.. Woke up early in the morning, get change and took a bus down to Arthur's house for the weekend jogging. Reached his place, was surprise that I'm the first one to reach. Waited for a while, timothy came. Then waited for a while more, still no one came. In the end, called them up and realised that all of them had overslept... haha... In the end, the 3 of us
went downstairs to do our warm-up and began our jog. Today we took a new route, running from Avenue 12 to Gambas Ave then reach back to Arthur's condominium entrance. However, I ran till near the end of Ave 12, already shack out ler.. so took a shorter route with Arthur while Timothy continued on. In the end clock about 5 km on timing, 29:30.

After that, went to Zai Lai for coffee and happen to meet ken they all. So sat there for a while, after that went to Church for Service. Today worship and sermon really minister to me alot. The sermon touch on the Book of Romans Chapter 10. The following verses really struck me alot:

14How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"

As I ponder upon the word and reflects on my life, I've realised that throughout my walk with Christ, I've been overcome by my own personal problems that I forgot what my purpose in this world is. I've never really took the initiative to reach out to people, to share the good news with them. Its always when I'm task to do it , then I do it. I just thank God that through the worship and sermon, He helps me to realise my problem. I just pray that, with the aid of the Holy Spirit, I will always remind myself to commit to God fully as a instrument to further thy Kingdom.

P.S. S'pore lost to China during the table-tennis final... but I'm still glad that we got Silver!! Go Singapore!

Today has been a great and fruitful day for me! Went to meet Hwee Chee and click at Sembawang Mrt Station before heading down to 589A for our Balloon Sculpture training. Manage to get Anthony to come and teach us (Thanks alot, Bro! :)) . Learn to make a lot of stuff, from the simple one like sword, dog, flower, to sophisticated one like bear (My favorite!!), elephant, snail.. in total we spent about 4 hours just to practice and master the skill.. after the session really shack out sia..
Wanna thank Uncle Paul too for liaising the using of the venue for us, if not we will not have a place to practice ler...

Currently, we are still in need of volunteers for the fundraising event. WE NEED VOLUNTEERS!! If you are INTERESTED in Balloon Sculpture and is available this SATURDAY, please do let me know. Trainings will be provided for those who are interested.

After the training session, went to Mr. Richard's place for prayer meeting. Spilt into two groups and did some sharings on our personal issues. Also, pray for the search for Adult Pastor and the Church rebuilding project.

Shall go and rest soon, going for the run tomorrow :)

Well, today went to school for my Econs paper. Forgotten a few of the models, a bit screwed up I would say. Anyway, what done is done, no point crying over spilled milk... all I can do now is to leave it to Him.....

Kang wei flew off early this morning, taking a mid night flight. Didn't went to send him off, cos need to revise for today's paper. Do keep him in your prayer, cos believe me, it will be rather tough to be away from home for a year. Got a lot of things to settle for the fund raising project, getting the venue for training, liaising with the people, discussions... everything... just pray that all will turn out well on the actual day.

Went for a job interview to work as Assistant Facilities Officer in school. Don't know whether will get the job or not... just commit everything to Him ba...

It is now 05:47 am.. I've just slept for only 3 hours.. and some more only fell asleep at around 1am plus... cos when I close my eyes, the formulas and equations everything will start to appear here and there.. now I couldn't make myself to go to sleep... can't believe that I'm actually having insomnia because of the bridging math exam which I'm actually quite confident to pass... This is really so not me... may be is because its been a while since I really went into a hall for written exam... just pray for me ba... since I'm awake now, I shall spend the time effectively by revising on the formulas...

Now slacking at home... will be going to SIM for lecture later.. from 1530 to 1830.. a bit regret for selecting the slot that is so late... after that will be heading down to Sembawang to meet up with Hwee Chee for the discussion on the fund raising project. Please pray for smooth planning and execution of the project, cos right now we have not done much yet and the event is happening in just two weeks time...

Anyway, last Sunday, went for a run early in the morning with my church mates. We ran from one end of Ave 9 to Republic Poly then run back to Arthur's place. Think the distance is about 5km, and glad that I'm managed to complete the run without stopping, though got slow down a bit :) Its been a while since the last time I ran so now my thighs still aching... After the run, wash up, have breakfast and head down to church for service. After that, had our lunch at Sembawang, Mac. Dunno why, kinda dislike fast food ler... think old liao la hahaha... after that head to gliderz to slack and wait for the rest to finish their makeover. Head to AMK Hub to have our dinner, after which went to Star bucks @ Thomson Plaza to slack. On the way there, Ken share with me about the situation in BB. Actually was asking myself, what really stop me from serving BB as officer? Its seems that there isn't one currently..... must really make up my mind and settle it once and for all...

Will be having exams tomorrow and Friday... please keep me in your prayer... by the way, kang wei will be leaving to Brunei for a year. He will be taking a mid-night flight on Friday. Please keep him in your prayer too.

Just came back from Service. This week is the start of our church mission month. Today Sermon is on the history of mission from the early times till now. Its rather dried I would say, but I quite like it cos its touch more on the history side.. hahaa.. anyway, Rev Lai spoke about us being the 4th wave of mission, that is to spread and share the gospel with every individual around us. Think for me I really need to work on this area, cos I've not really been sharing the gospel with others. Pray for me that I will be brave enough to share the gospel with others when opportunity arises.

Anyway, headed to Sun plaza for lunch after service. Saw Trina at the bus interchange, and guess what? She got bring the book!! Thank God that Trina happens to buy the book: Ugly by Constance Briscoe so can borrow from her to read. Thanks, trina :) Think not going out ler ba... unless they later got meet for dinner. Thats it for now. :)
