My Greatest Experience by Far..

Moon Cake Festival 2006

Whoah! It’s finally over *tears of joy* =D

First and foremost, I would like to thank the Chinese Society for helping us, for their full support and efforts. Especially, MS FOH for the best suggestion and guidance throughout this project.

this project started since the day i went to penang for the st. anne's feast.. suddenly the idea of having a moon cake festival come forth, and thus my major fund-raising and school service project for the year ^^'

Through these past few months, I learnt a lot especially about myself

I learnt:

- How to deal with irritating and annoying people who will just drive you up the wall

- How to irritate them back =P and make them feel the same way

- How to cook myself in a stuffy room for 3 long hours with these monkeys

- How to ignore the ranking of a person (sounds bad but yeah, just had to) because their ideas are just plain stupid

- How to argue your way through just to get things straight

- How to be patient and explain a million times to get a simple message like this is the layout of the security ~.~ , imagine me in every meeting for the past 2 months

- how to explain in so many creative ideas just to get the message thru
from drawing diagrams to using my voice level, the degree of loudness etc. etc.

ok that was actually all negative things that i learnt =D,
now for the positive side

I learnt:

- That my LEO Members are a bunch of committed members, sometimes over-committed too. =) Thank you so much to those who massaged me, destressed me in times of trouble, those who followed me around during the final week before the project no matter how troublesome it was. Thank you guys! You know who you are =)

- How to ignore irritating people, learning to accept that they just wont listen to you no matter how hard you plead or beg

- I learnt that they aren’t the only one in the world and that others may also be capable of doing what they can do


- That some things just won’t go your way and I learnt how to twist and turn and yet reach my destination

- That some people just love to poke negative comments for the fact of bringing you down, maybe out of jealousy perhaps?

- how to deal with stress! i finally managed it =)

- To appreciate my poor little stomach when it starts howling and grumbling, I did not have a proper evening meal and no dinner at all during the event and had no supper and breakfast after that. By the time lunch came, gastric came forth and thus my stomach thought me a lesson * wonders how to survive the coming 30-hour famine camp *

- What it felt like to have gastric

- to stick up for yourself, to be stubborn *yes it does help * and stick to ideas that you already planned and thought of the consequences to it

- To appreciate God more, thanked Him so much that the weather was awesome that night. He was always there during times that I needed endurance.
* especially during meetings, …. get my drift? =D *

- to appreciate my parents more, I finally understand that it’s not through verbal that they support me, but it’s through their actions that they do
* will not elaborate any further due to sensitive issues * =P

acknowledgements:

- All my LEO members for your utmost dedication, without you guys I do not think that that night could ever have happened. Thank you for sticking up to our club eventho u know, all those negative remarks from *others* , i appreciate it till i wanted to burst into tears during the night of the project seeing that the event is actually brought into reality

- thank you for bearing with my absentee of blogging due to the fact that i was super bz during the past 2 months, organizing this project and tutoring my friends for pmr too

- My faithful BODs and my trusted friends too, going out to KOK CHUN, ALEX, YUVANES, KOK HAN, ARAVINTHAN, WINSTON, and EUGENE for staying with me to the very end =) Thank you for your sacrifice but please GET BACK ON YOUR STUDIES! xD

- Teachers and everyone who really had touched my heart and supported me – Pn. Han, Pn. Teh, Pn. Ong, Mr. Raj, Pn. Sushila, Ms. FOH and individuals who have helped me throughout my project

- Julian and Richard for helping me with the designing of the badges eventho you guys had PMR =)

- Not forgetting John Thomas too for all the time spent on my flyers =) and Paul Levigne for taking snapshots!

- **CHINESE SOCIETY for agreeing to join the project with me**

- Those who came that night! Sorry for not being able to greet you guys as i was just soo busy

- Everyone else whom I missed out. So Sorry! YOU for reading this post of mine that is just plain text.. xD

*************

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT !

* My decision to be a teacher in the near future is FINAL *

Rest and Relax Camp!

Rest and Relax Camp 2006
2nd Subang Jaya Company
Date: 24th - 26th August 06
Venue : Orchard Hill Lodge, Bukit Tinggi

-> Day 1 <-

0800 - Me went to Lau - Ren - Zhia's House to tumpang her car, then later we picked Ruth at Church and we headed off to Subang !

0830 - Arrived at Subang and saw a few people gathering there already, heard that WO Seki and Benji was waiting there since 0730 hours. LOLz!

0930 - Bus arrived and we stuffed our belongings into it. Went off to Bkt Tinggi! Everyone was filled with excitement, not knowing what the two nights and three days would bring us.

From now, i donno the time.. Lolz =)

Arrival & Briefing

We were all like WHOA! it looks like such a nice place, only thing bad is that we had to walk like 10 minutes just to get to that place while carrying our "light" lugagges. Firstly, we unloaded our bags at the top floor, then had some technical errors in communication and we all pindah our bags down again ~.~"

- + The Hall + -

Sgt Wei Zheng gathered everyone at the worship hall, and my my it was such a nice hall! Drum sets , a piano and ping pong tables awaited us. Sgt gave his briefing and told us all the rules. Wasn't it obvious that Boys cant go near Girls dorm and vice versa? heh

Lunch Time =D

Food at last! To fill our tummies, I think we were served rice with normal lauk-pauks. After being stuffed we proceeded to Ice Breakers.

Ice Breakers!!

Cprl Josef conducted the ice breakers. We gathered at the upper deck where they had this TV which no one watched during the entire camp for reasons unknown. First game was the Octopus game where we tangle our hands up. Now, this time with a slight twist which was to remember all our group members birthdates! I was in Sgt's group where we stumbled to free ourselves from that tanglement >.< lot =")">

-+ The Upper Deck where we gathered +-

Swimming Time!!!!!!

After the ice breakers, we all RUSHED to the pool, literally that is. Everyone started toying with the diving platform especially Jimmy.. I was startled at the height at first but what the heck? You won't die right? Well, Wo Ther Kua thought otherwise =) [Explanation on 2nd Day] I jumped! Lolz. Then everyone started pushing those sitting near the poolside off. We then made Dana and Ruth to jump too. Dana was very very reluctant. and in the end. i think someone pushed her of the "cliff" or either she jumped. Luckily, she din take that much of a time than WO Ther Qua .. =D


-+ I need not say anything, the pool is just too magnificent +-

Yummie Time

Dinner was up next, after swimming for a few hours, everyone was HUNGRY! shown by the fact that food was ALMOST .. hehe almost only, to finish. We were given this SPICY and i really MEAN SPICY! sotong goreng. Everyone was crying, literally.. i was! Lolz sweated like a man person.. Dinner was better than lunch definitely

Time to Praise the Lord

Worship was lead by WO Seki, Cprl Benji and Pte Jon Ng. It was a nice worship. I stoned next to Jon, helpin him in any way i could cause he din know the chords to Yang Terutama.

Supper

If i am not mistaken, it was supper after this, we were given biscuits and we made either MiLo / Nescafe to quench our thirst.


-+ Dining Area +-

OPEN TALK

This is by far one of the best things that happened during the camp, something new to me that i will implement in my prefect camp. Everyone was supposed to comment on somebody / something / speak in general about the company. Many interesting topics flew past namely :

1. Ruth's topic on Samong
I think everyone would remember this one. Ruth told Samong that he was CUTE! get that! that's all that I'm going to touch on this post =), due to reasons that cannot be told =D

2. Rachel cried when she was accepted into BB
Yes! the truth is out, Rachel almost fell into tears when she knew she was accepted into the Junior section!! You see, how much one's passion in BB may bring. The reason behind this was because she was not accepted the first time. So guys! Think twice whenever you feel like you're slacking in BB ! Remember RACHEL! Lolz

3. My Topics! =)

i. Talent

I first started my cheung-heiness by touching on talent. I told everyone there what is the reason behind BB becoming BORING. Due to the fact that everyone is not serving in areas that they are talented in. Imagine if, everyone starts serving, even if it was just plain playing the piano or just helping another in drill? Wouldn't our company prosper in a short term? our company will progress. but the question is : How Fast?

I also brought up the fact that once youre good at something, why not bring it to a higher level . Picture This : a 5kg block of iron worths only USD10 . Once it is moulded into a horseshoe it is worth now for USD50. Once made into 1000 needles is is worth USD100. Adapted from Uncle KC's sermon. You see, our talent is just like that! For example, if youre good at piano, why not teach someon who dont even know where is C on the piano, to learn piano? that's for first, then u go on to coaching others, from that level, you begin to start to worship lead and lead others to serve God.

Another example, would be drill. if you're good at it. why not change other's perception on Drill, those that hate drill, why not teach them and finally I'm VERY sure that they WILL enjoy drill once and for all. These kinda things do make a BIG difference if everyone starts doing that in our company ya know?

ii. Puppy Love

Lol, this is a funny topic which i thought of.. PUPPY LOVE, as you guys frmo BB2SJ know, our company is FILLED with it especially ni the younger generation. I tried warning everyone that what is the point of getting into a relationship if you dont know where it's heading to? A relationship needs commitment, hell lots of it and your maturity. If not I guarantee! It will end up in a broken relationship where hearts would be broken for weeks and friendships lost. WHAT's THE POINT?

Well, i'm not saying it's all that bad, it is a good feeling to fall in love, but yeah, guys and girls pls do KNOW your LIMITs. when i touched on this topic i could see that some people in the crowd "felt" something or should i say "terasa", no names mentioned. I got thumbs up from Seki for mentioning this =)

iii. Advancement of Christ's Kingdom

Lastly, i spoke on the actual meaning of BB, what's the point of us bragging about our BAND? or DRIL? or even our singing competitions and trophies, after all it's just a piece of plastic, as said by Benji. What is the REAL object of BB? it is stated in the very first line. The advancement of Christ's Kingdom!

We, constantly forget all about it, therefore i urged everyone to start bringing in non-christian members to BB bcuz i am definite taht our current company members had heard about the good news. Invite them and let the Holy Spirit do the work. Remember our soul duty for Christ!

Let us not be a company who brags abour our physical achievements. But let it be because of our spritual achievements. Let us tell others how many came to know Christ through BB, not how many people who know how to play the Trumpet / Drums through BB. I'm definite that this is God's wish for us BB members. After all, trophies are just PLASTIC!

Well, that concludes my thoughts. Just my two cents..

Lights Out T.T

WO Seki summarised all that we said and then we sang the vesper as it was already around 12 am. I didn't wanna sleep so early at first, therefore we had a tutoring session with the PMR students, Those who passed PMR helped around. But in the end, at 2am the lights went out =.='

Oh well, that concludes DAY 1 .. check again for updates on DAY 2 !
