hey guys! hope you all had a wonderful christmas! i think i cooked and ate too much! thank you nic for putting all the designs up on the blog! this sunday we will print them out and discuss how we want it to look like on the t-shirts! yay! so exciting!
we'll be doing something a little different this sunday. since it's the last small group of the year before we begin again in 2008, i hope to take the time for everyone to share about our personal resolutions and commitments for the next year. also, i'm gonna share with you guys what our vision for the small group will be next year (i.e. what we hope to achieve by the end of 2008). after that, we can play some games! i just borrowed taboo from my fren. it's very fun!
lets meet 10.30am (enough time for you to sleep abit later?) at commonwealth mrt station. this sunday is COMPULSORY for everyone k? I hope all of you will turn up because it is gonna be very important for the whole small group. every single one of you is significant and makes a contribution to our FANTASTIC small group. therefore, it's vital that all of us be there. anyone missing from the group will be like a jigsaw puzzle with a missing piece =) so PLEASE encourage each other to turn up this sunday! and don't be late!
however, if you do have valid reasons for not coming (i.e. yr parents have plans for you), do let me know too.
we will probably finish about 1pm. then we can go to the Long John Silvers near my house for lunch! those of you who need to go off can go off by then.
i love you guys! you all are very dear to me! see u all on Sunday!

Hi guys! Tmr is combine service. I might not make it cos I got a xmas party to prepare for... don't have enough time to finish everything.
Next sunday, there's no YM service, but there's fellowship Sunday. It will be the last Sunday of the year (30th Dec 2007). I suggest we should spend the last sunday of the year together as a small group and discuss what we hope to see in our small group next year. We can have it at my house! I will sms you all the details.
Merry Christmas!
love, Yas

ym camp 2007, christmas partyyy
warning: super long post! heylo! I just got back from the most indulgent afternoon ever. I woke up at 12pm, changed and stuff, went out for lunch at 1pm, at dempsey hill, this super classy place with nice food and all. We ate at harry's, and i had two mocktails, a shirley temple and a pussyfoot. Nice man. Then we drove to novena ville, so we could have our kampong fish therapy, where you submerge your body(or body parts) in to a tub full of warm water and hundreds of small kampong fish. And you guessed it, the fish would then swarm your skin, nibbling off your dead skin cells, leaving the skin smooth and rejuvenated! :) Warning though. Extremely ticklish(lyn and i couldnt stop squirming and screaming) and expensive. Its like 30, 40 bucks per person for half an hour. :S Next up, united square for a body and foot massage at Wanying. 40 bucks for the foot massage, lasting 40 minutes and 36 bucks for the body massage, lasting 20 minutes. So all in all, we spent an hour there, getting pressed and rubbed and massaged. Its a bit painful but very very shiok. Its amazing the things they can do with their hands. Anyway, this post shld be about what its title suggests, ym camp and the christmas party, so. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ym camp 2007, for me, was an awesome experience. The sermons and worships touched me and impacted me so much, i was often reduced to tears, as tzeyong and lyn would probably know. Pastor How preached about living your life not for yourself but for others, and also becoming a not only righteous christian, but a holy one as well. I made a strong conviction to live my life for god, to live him in my everyday life and actions. Its difficult i know, but i'm going to give it my best shot, because he deserves all that i am. Jesus Christ, a sinless man, died on the cross for us, a couple of sinful men. He sacrificed so much and went through so much pain, for people as undeserving as us. Think about it, would you do it? Let yourself be charged and despised for things you never did, and then sent to experience flesh tearing pain, to have nails hammered into your swollen hands and barbed wire jammed onto your bloody head and to be hung on a wooden cross for all to laugh and ridicule at? No. Which is why, i believe we all really owe alot to God, to repay him for all he's done for us, and to reach out to others, to let them know of God's great power and might. Personally, thats alot for me, because being in a non christian school, people around me come from all sorts of backgrounds and families, and i'm also pretty self consious, and i'm afraid they think i'm some sort of holy freak who goes everywhere preaching. Thats stupid, so i pray that one day, soon, i'll overcome that and set out to do what God has destined for me to do. Also, i would like to thank god for touching so many of my friends at this camp, esp tzeyong, this being his first camp and all, i really saw him being touched and experiencing god for the first time. And i can safely say, that that experience is life changing. After you feel god, you never forget it, and it spurs you on to want to be a better person, a person truly walking the path of christ. I pray that all of us in this cell group, would one day be able to feel god the way many of us have. Well, ym camp was as usual, really awesome, but god, my father, you're even awesome-er. :) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Christmas partyyyy yesterdayyyy was really greattttt. I love you guys alot, and i'm waiting for the photos to surface, so i can 'kope' them all and save the wonderful memories in my mind permanently. Here are little messages for all of you guys. Lyn: my dearest sister, having you around is truly wonderful, and i love the way you are crazy and bimbotic("I cant get sunburnt!"), because that reminds me that i'm not the only crazy bala. :) Yas: heyy cell leader! thank you for leading us to become such a bonded, close cell group under your great leadership, as well as teaching us about god, for us to know and love him so much more. Shaocai: I know you've been busy studying the past year, but just know that you're never forgotten, and we're all waiting, until you come back to lead our group with yas. Tzeyong: heylo best friend, thank you for your concern yesterday, after i got that depressing phone call, and i promise i told you everything there is to it, so dont worry. :) i like your house and pool, since i finally got to see it, after dunno how long. Nick(y): You are one emotional guy, esp when it comes to your girlfriend, who "means the world to you". i really got to know you better yesterday, whats with the 'talks' and stuff. :) i hope you know who's carolyn and who's lynette by now. Nat: hello you toughie. you're the only one who willingly goes chasing after the guys to smack their guts out. but sometimes they deserve it, so go GO nat, defend the girls! and forget the lousy shawn. like, seriously, you deserve better, because you rock. Jess: thanks for being the sensible one, and telling me all that stuff which i simply didnt notice before. i never really knew you before, but now that i know you better, you're really great! :) Lonhau: Skinny monkey! i am still laughing at you, mgs boy. :) you are the life of the party, with your jokes(which are not funny), retardism and outer space-ism. Sarah: heyyyy! i'm glad you came to camp and the party, because i got to know you better, beyond the quiet girl you normally are in church. you're actually quite fun and adventurous, which is mighty cool can. :) Dom: hello half a man! i believe you wont stay child-like all your life, so dont worry, very soon your mom would be telling you that you're a full man! Lihao: you're more of a quiet one in the cell group compared to the rest, but thats okay, because you're still an impt part of the cell group, the normal one amongst the crazy. everyone: i love you guys alot, and thank you for being such a great part of my life. i look forward to us being together for years to come! :)
love and XOs, carolynn

went to camp the last 4 days! and at first, i dint sign up for camp, but the day before camp, yasmine told me that theres space for camp, so i decided to go and ya, i think it is jus amazing, maybe God wanted me to go for this camp and im not jus lucky to go, maybe God jus planned it all. and i was suppose to go HK, but at the end, it was postpone to nxt year, so yeah, maybe GOd did all this jus for me t go camp, which i really thank him! I LOVE YOU JESUS! (: i remeber this sentence in the song we sang, "break my heart, for what breaks yours" and i think its jus so important for yus to be christ-like and know GOD. i think camp rocks. and everyday , there's altar-call but not everyone went and i dint go for everything. camp really just allow me to built up my spritual being with GOd, i think it jus rocks. it realy touches ppl around. i've learnt that being a christian is not only being jus a christian but i have to shine God's Glory to the ppl around me and have a Father heart of GOD and i promise to God that i'll try to be nice to amanda lin and treat everyone around me with kindness."others can; i cannot" is another very inportant phrase that i learnt, others can scold the f word, others can watch porn, others can bully, but i cant becox im a christian and i have to honour god with everything i do. yeah. i fell that i have like become very "holy" or just more "holy" after the camp. and i learnt that holiness is NOT equals to rightneouess and that is really something that is so important, becox i tot that once you are a christian, you are holy and rightenous.i've made a promise to GOD that i'll serve him in this ministry, but im in chapel band and God told me that it is not enuf, so i really dont know what to do. mayb ..i dont know. this is my first camp in YM, and yes, it is a very good exprience. i am going for other very camp in YM next time (: im afriad that after 1 month, i'll lose this close relationship wif GOD and its jus so scary to lose GOD. i think CAMP ROCKS! theres really too much to say and i cant say it out lrh.. too much.

Hello :)
Hey guys! i am the first person to blog after church camp :) once i came home from lunch, i just set myself on my bed and fell asleep until like 830 , tt happened to carolyn too then now we are ordering pizza in . But i felt that it was all worthwhile despite the severe lack of sleep i had to undergo.
The sermons really touched me, they were easy to understand and digest. Like what others can ,i cannot. For me personally, i convicted to spend time with god every single day whether or not i have exams or am busy. And i will not date anybody unless i have the intention of getting married to them or i can imagine living my life with them cus i think dating nowadays have been too casual for many people. everyone i am sure has this corner in them who wants to be loved by someone and this yearning usually causes us to seek for our better half but i think at my age, i am not mature enough . and i know god is there for me and he told me deep in my heart that when the time is right, the right person will appear and i will just know it. i shouldnt just plunge into any relationship. These are the two convictions i made to god duriing church camp.
However, to my dismay when the pastor how told us whether or not i could run up to protect the weak when i see them in trouble, i didnt think i could, i mean it depends on the circumstances. Like when i see a man being beaten up my gangsters, i dont think i actually have the courage to go up there and stop them , at most i will just call the police. Hopefully one day god will empower me with the courage to stop them.
Okay i will blog more on the camp next time, i think all of you must be getting bored after reading my lengthy post. Oh anyway, i want to thank our whole ysg3 group for helping me grow closer to god this past yr although sometimes some of you are so filled with rubbish sometimes. For instance, I saw lonhau go up for an altarcall and i dont know why but i was really happy for him that although he acts so crazy and sick in the mind, he still acutally has the heart to worship god :) i was really touched by what god can do for all of us. Oh yeah i am suppose to end now. God bless everyone pray tt it doesnt rain on wed k .
