You know you've got his heart when you are not around and he asks for you You know you've got his attention when you raise your hand and he raises his You know you've been missed when you arrive and he runs and hugs you tight even when he is sticky and wet You know you've got his respect when you say No! and he listens and doesnt question why or why not? You know you've got it made when you appear and he goes around telling everyone "that's my cousin, you know" You know you've made him laugh when you go around telling everyone "that's my little cousin, you know" You know you've hurt him when you scold and he looks at you with tears You know you've been given permission when you ask whether you can walk him to his dorm and he says yes You know he's got a friend in you when you listen and he tells you his little secrets You know he trusts you when you hold his hand and he lets you hold his You know he has le...

and so ends my first junior camp er, i wasnt there as a camper but as an officer. it has been a tremenduous time of learning, interacting with the children and the other camp officers. unfortunately, i cldnt be there the entire duration of the camp but it certainly made every moment very special indeed. i treasured every moment of it. my little cousin, Julian went for it and he has been a source of joy during this week as well. or so the other officers tell me. when i asked him if he would like to come next year, he said yes and he will ask his friends along. i noticed a very interesting thing about Bethany's Camps, whether its the recently concluded Junior Camp or the upcoming Youth Conference. once you start coming, you never stop. there are kids who dont go to sunday school but are always present during camps. like my friend davier who helped out for the first time at this year's Junior camp said that he wont mind doing the same for next year's camp. there's just som...

what do you say when your mum talks about the D-word? What do you tell your dad when he asks for more M? What do you tell your sis when she doesnt care any more? What do you answer all of them when you cant even answer yourself?

i was right , Gals' Nite Out was very interesting . a pity i cld only make it thurs evening. i've never seen, heard Pastor mitch laughed so much and i thought he did a very good job of handling us. esp when it came to senstive gal's stuff. haha Maybe cos he is a pastor , we are not so hard on him as a guy. but if he were any guy, i am sure things wld be have been different . haha - female part related cancer and labour pains . that was a hoot . even he had a good laugh . ok laughs aside, the lesson was about having a gentle and quiet spirit . this doesnt mean that we all turn into little doormats and just let everyone stomp all over us. Pastor Mitch was refering to the inner strength that God gives . i was thankful that Pastor Mitch was direct and cut straight to the point. there wasnt any beating about the bush when he gave us some examples . and strangely there wasnt any awkward tension in the room when he mentioned so called taboo words like " s...

G a l s N i g h t O u t its going to be a very very interesting time. Last nite was our Gals' Nite Out Meeting . Pastor Mitch raised a lot of pertinent questions. a lot of issues and i know the gals themselves will raise alot of them. but the few issues that stood out quite clearly is the idea of dressing. especially how a gal/lady/woman shld dress in God's House. - the answer is modest . because you are in GOD's HOUSE . you are in His Presence . you are in His Dwelling Place . It's no longer about u. it's about GOD . "i'm coming back to the heart of worship, when its ALL about YOU , its ALL about YOU , Jesus. i'm sorry Lord for the thing i've made it when it's ALL about YOU . IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU Jesus." Almost everyone had a bone to pick with that word 'Modest'. Define Modesty . the word itself means different things to each one. what is modest to you may not be modest to another. So How? simple? i think, if it ...

its strange huh. how people just give up like that? its strange huh how just how one answer changes everything? or does it? its strange huh how good we are at lying to ourselves? why bother, when everything all around is just a damn facade. its strange huh that most of my friendships turn out all the same? "its not u, its me" maybe they are really ships - either they float or they sink its strange huh how he has got so many questions but he doesnt ask u but does his own thinking and totally forgets that you are part of his conclusions as well its strange huh how u think that he is someone that he is really not? its strange huh how he ensures that you are not to blame but somehow it still feels like its my fault? maybe he's just good at blame shifting its strange huh how your bestest friends can always see the good and the bad in the guys you choose to adore. and yet be very objective about them its strange huh that they are all wired the same way, or maybe thats not stran...

it just occured to me how selfish people are and can be. it doesnt matter what they say, how they say it, when they say it just as long as they say it. it probably din occured to them the consequences of those statements and how they can leave cr ac ks.fis sure s.h ole s.te ar s.g ap s. it doesnt matter at all it seems. no wonder they say that 'The Pen is mightier than a Sword ', 'a tongue of 6 inches can fell a man 6 ft'. its just amazing how words, whether spoken or written can make or break someone. well things happen for a reason i guess. i am someone who isnt realli too bothered about stupid rumours and gossip. they dont affect me. could be also because i dont hear much. even moo and siao know that there is no point in telling me stuff like that cos i just dont give a damn. but it affects me when the people closest to me say things that carry a whole of significance . whether spoken in jest or anger or sadness or joy or whatever expressions, i get affec...
