Wednesday, December 28, 2005Patience to take it slow... Song of the moment: Gackt - Metamorphoze (Mobile Suit Z Gundam: A New Translation Movie Theme) yureru kodou ga boku wo shibaritsukeru kimi no kakera ga fukai yami ni ochita nigeru koto sae yurusarenai sekai de kimi no koto dake ha mamoritakatta no ni ima mo...ima demo dareka no yasashii kotoba yori kimi no, kimi dake no kuchibiru ni sotto furetai (The wavering vibrations tied me down As the fragments of you fell into the deep darkness In a world where not even running is allowed I only wanted to protect you And now...Even now, more than anyone else's kind words I want to softly touch your lips, only yours) Metamorphoze by Gackt Sorry for missing last week's update. I've been busy...again. Mainly with my Unified Messaging System project which I, despite all the odds, actually managed to complete it. Was also out doing Christmas shopping on Thursday and Friday, which really left me little time to do anything else. Such is the life of a 3rd year MIT student in NYP. Anyways, starting with the Christmas Eve celebrations in SKMC. Started with the dinner in church and carolling around Sengkang. The adult cell we were attached to didn't inform us that they were leaving and left us waiting in Church until Reverend Lek came and asked us what we were doing in church. Despite the initial hiccup, the carolling went rather well and I thankfully didn't lose my voice. Then came TimeOut with the rest of the youth at Fort Canning Park. It was rather tiring (no sleep at all from Christmas Eve to Christmas Day) and maybe a little chaotic, but it was fun nonetheless. Started out with the Countdown and randomly spraying people with...erm...spray stuff. Then the usual games, impromptu skit, sharing by Jia Zhi and the discussion session where I was discussion leader assigned to Ming Kiat and Zhiliang. Ming Kiat was...Ming Kiat while Zhiliang, being the first time for me actually talking to him, seemed very cynical of things. If NS really makes people cynical, then I'll really dread it. I am hoping and praying that I'll be able to grow in character and at the same time, 'stay myself' during NS. Finally the Christmas Day celebrations back in church. As I mentioned earlier, I didn't get any sleep at all but I somehow survived, the Confirmation, Christmas Service etc. Ah yes, I was confirmed and received into membership on Christmas at SKMC (This you'll know if you read my last post). It was rather...fun, in a way. There was an incident which as Daniel calls it, made us 'the center of attention'. Of course those who attended the Christmas service (which included Yap Xiong and I would like to thank him for coming. I really appreciated his presence there...Sorry for not having time to show you around the place and to intro you to some people) would know and since Daniel didn't elaborate on it in his blog, neither will I. Went to Daniel's house later for a Christmas lunch with Seb, Wan Zhen, Sheryl, Joe and Ming Kiat. Initially, I was wondering why I should go, especially since I REALLY wanted to catch up on my sleep but it was worth it. Exchanging sleep for Oat Prawns(I think...) is worth it. (PS to Daniel Tay: Please talk to you-know-who about you-know-what during you-know-when (lol)...I am very sure you would not allow yourself and the rest of our cell to be subject to such atrocities on such a day) This week happens to be holiday week for us NYP students. This allows us to catch up on some much needed rest and recreation, a little bit of homework and start planning for our to-be-submitted-on-Week 14 projects. I really thank God for this break, which just nicely, came at the end of a very eventful week. Played a little of Radiata Stories. I had no idea the game was this addictive (actually I only play the game in the afternoons). I've also started planning for this coming January's Bible Quiz-thingy. I've got the flow more or less done (subject to approval, of course) but still got the trivia questions to come up with. Pray for me, yeah? Although somethings didn't go as planned and for others there simply wasn't even an opportunity, I am happy with the status-quo. I think God is telling me to be patient about it. We've still got a long way to go after all. Let's pray for the patience to take it slow...for now anyway. |
