Under The Water, Into The Waves

And the camp was great. Had a great group of Kyser, Reuben, Kar Seng, Pei Shi, Zachary, Louisa, Yvonne, Amanda, Nathaniel, James, Bella, Alvin and Pamela. Even though we were operating at 50% manpower most of the time, we still did our best. Enjoyed those 3 days with you people.

First day just checked in with a heavy bag, a heavy soul, a broken heart and a exhausted spirit. And for some reason i was the group leader. Felt incompetant, cause i was probably the one of those people who came into the camp broken and hopeing to be healed. Had a small session of worship followed by briefing before heading to Sentosa for beach games.

A fact i discovered while playing beach games: Sand is tasteless and crunchy. And too much can choke too. Got sunburnt then, but couldn't really care about it for some reason. Didn't feel particularly painful that i had to hide under a shower. After a quick wash up, headed for Underwater World for some programme about conversation of sharks before we headed for Dolphin Lagoon. The pink dolphins were quite cute. Amazing stunts performed too. Got a chance to touch a dolphin. Felt like rubber. =x

After Dolphin Lagoon, dinner at somewhere nearby followed by a tour of Underwater Water world. After that, we prepared to sleep over night at Underwater World. Managed to sleep a little even though snoring was echoing through out the tunnel and there were people talking.

Next morning headed back to church after breakfast. Had a short break before we had our hip-hop dance session. Looks like Ben's dad still got the moves after all... And Ben some how inherited those genes too... =x

Had lunch again, followed by an "Amazing Race" of some sort around the central area of Singapore. Group position dropped from 2nd to last cause of som mis-communication. Group wanted to give up before the last station, but got persuaded by Alvin to continue. Kind of disheartening to see 3 groups run pass us, but what matters is that we complete the race. (:

Had a message by Pastor Steven Wee after dinner. Good with lame jokes, or at least knows how to come back when no one gets the joke. Know what the bible stands for? Basic Information Before Leaving Earth. Didn't get it? At 2am when you taking your shower or sitting on your throne and suddenly get divine revalation and start laughing, its probably then you get what i just said. =x

Next day was another message by him before lunch. Headed to play captain's ball after that. Must be the weary heart and body that casued me to play not that well... But anyway, after all the games, washed up and went for dinner at Plaza Singapura with Reuel, Louisa, Ben, Nat and Ming Ci. Met Melissa before heading back to church for the rally. All i can say about the rally? Was a amazing experience. Just felt touched. Still got some way before i can really say i moved on, but i felt alot better after that. Now to find the strength for the final step. Tried to take the step during camp, but couldn't bring myself to do it. Hopefully can do so before new year. Time to get back to my first love, Christ.

Came back home after the rally. Stayed up to around 2am doing the laundry. Woke up at 7:30am again to go for church. Imagine the exhaustion. Thank goodness for the ice milo after service, woke me up enough to continue with the rest of the day. Then finally that night got enough sleep... About 12 hours, and i'm still tired. Wanted to play basketball today, but couldn't bear to drag myself out... Couldn't even find the strength to pull the guitar out. Looks like got some stuff to catch up on tomorrow...

Argh... A few more minutes before download is done... Hopefully can fully recover my sleep by tomorrow... See yah around.

I guess i can't expect you to be sorry for what had been done. Maybe i haven't done enough. Maybe i wasn't what you were looking for. But it doesn't really matter now. Now i'm wondering, why am i not feeling totally free while you are?
