COFFEE is the only reason i have survived the past 4 days.xDjust came back from vbc'06 (=
i don't think that my time in vbc can really be done justice in words. i came into the camp with not much expectations, but God really shattered my preconceptions. i forgot just how fun it was to just sit and play with the kids, be totally uninhibited during worship sessions, as well as bonding together.
(well for the uninitiated vbc is vacationbiblecamp for the p2-p6 kids. as an fler (frontliner which means sec1 onwards) i went there as a helper..)
despite not being a camper itself, i guess even though the activities are generally directed towards the little kids it was really enjoyable nonetheless. especially activities like the water bomb one haha. after getting wet from waist down i just thought what the heck la just get totally drenched =D which i did.
yeah and i got to know alot of ppl better! like jansen, joshua, deb ng and amanda bennett (is tt how u spell it?) who previously i didn't talk to that much. oh and i realize that ryan and i are really alike (= i know u probably won't read this but man i'm glad u're my friend.
i guess why camps are so effective is because they provide an enclosed environment, sealed off from the rest of the world, giving the peace needed to really focus on God. I always feel refreshed, recharged and revived after a camp. its really revival, baby. i needed it alot more than i knew. words really can't do justice to the way i'm feeling now. i'm
alive again.
maybe i should have scrapped my other commitments and gone for jyc. i guess i'm kinda regretting it now. sigh. nvm whats over is over. i did what i thought was right at the time, and i hafta live with the decision anyway. (=
OH AND JOANNA U CAME :D haha great to see u after such a long time! the centre of our extended family finally came back!
hoho maybe i'll post abit more about specific stuff in the camp while its still fresh in my mind. post tmr! and sadly my phone still remains camera-less so no photos T_T maybe i can scrounge up some from other ppl lols.
