Losing it?

To my astonishment I just realised that its going to be Friday tomorrow! 

Far out! I don't even remember what I did on Monday... 

This is bad, I think I'm losing it. Brain Deteriorating.. Brain Malfunction? Brain Lag? Brain Dead... 

I've been working at my dad's childcare this past week.

It takes me about an hour to make ONE fly screen... 

About 45 minutes to install an auto door closer..

I think my whole body is lagging. 

My new phone which I'll be getting when I start Army 

=)

Nokia E51 (non-Camera)

Which Colour should I pick? Black Silver Brown? 

=.= I've got to get the non-camera model because I'm going to be taking it into Camp. 

Coolest thing about getting this phone is the plan that comes along with it.

$25.60 SGD

100mins free outgoing

FREE UNLIMITED SMS to anyone

FREE camp calls (for NSF) ie, calling out from army base areas. 

How awesome is that?!

In addition its $0 for the phone too!

Eddy, Bryan and Guo Hao are making their way to Melbourne on Tuesday. I've got to get their itinerary completed ASAP! 

Excitement Or Fear?

Was just looking at flight tickets to Singapore. 

Instead of clicking on a Return ticket, this time I'm requesting for a One way ticket.

I have no clue what lies ahead of me in the next few months. 

Having always to enjoy the ability to find out about what I'm getting myself into, 

I'm having difficulty get information about National Service.. 

What Platoon am I going to be in? 

What is it going to be like not knowing anyone in camp?

Where are the facilities? 

Who are going to be my new friends? 

Am I going to be able to cope in camp?

Im dreading the feeling of leaving Melbourne and my Family for 2 years.. I truly am. 

I feel like a small boy who is signing up for military service....

Its been too fast

Its been a hectic two and a half months away from home.
But being back again still feels great!


Student Life Camp
Jon, Jerusha and myself took a day trip to Anglesea to check out the combined student life camp.
The trip to the camp site was pretty tiring as all of us probably only had about four hours of sleep the night before.
I even attempted to wake up at 5 am so that I can walk to Boxhill from Doncaster and had breakfast before meeting Jon and jerusha at 8. But that didn't happen as it was pouring when I woke up. So instead I got out of bed at 6 and caught buses to meet the rest. Poor Jon who had to drive all the way there and back to Melbourne. Thanks Jon, appreciate it mate.

The camp kinda made me realise that God is truly moving amongst all of us regardless if we're part of his plan. I've understood that God has given us the opportunities to be part of his movement here on Earth, but it is out decision to take up the many opportunities that we may encounter.
I've yet to learn to seize every opportunity that God has allowed me to have and make the most out of it.

Nat
I came home after the day trip and I decided to jump on Isaac's blog to have a read. And to my amazement he has finally uploaded pictures and created a special post for the mission trip to Thailand we had early on this year.
As I read his post, he reminds us all about the sponsored child that Grace, Haney, Isaac and myself share a month to cover her daily expenses merely with $44AUD.
It came to my mind that the night when we said goodbye to her, she did not realise that she wasn't going to see us again after having to get to know us better almost every single day for 3-4 days.
Imagine how a six year old would've felt when she finds out that the people (us) that has brought her so many presents and poured out so much love on her within a short period were not going to be there anymore the next day...
I really felt her pain when I thought about it... that made me tear alittle.

I really want to go back and visit her again.
Just look at her in the back with her palms on the window... it seems like she is reaching out towards us...
We love her.

Unfit much?

Monday, 23 February

After church today, the guys and myself went for a 2.7km run around Ruffy Lake. The run was initially easier than I thought it would be, but as I came around the lake, I attempted to increase my speed and maintain it in-front of the pack. However I experienced a stitch and felt excruciating pain in my abdominal muscle, since then my pace decreased dramatically.
Sighs, I really need to get fitter before National Service..

In addition, my 11 months mobile decided to stop working today! And I discovered that it was the connection behind the phone between the screen and the motherboard that had failed. I'm just ordering the extra part online at the moment and hopefully I can get it fixed, or I'll be contact-LESS... sighs!
