Haha, and i thought MY blog was dead... anyways, was doing my SS notes on the com (if you want can ask me) and i thought i'd drop by... doesn't seem like anyone has in a LONG time... o wells..

Anyways, i'm really looking forward to a class gathering of some sort, it'll be great, after the Os or something, it'll be fun... considering the fact that i have NEVER been for a cat class outing... seriously... i have no photos for evidence... haha..

MUST HAVE AN OUTING!!!

O, and junior catechists is SO fun, it's like cat class ALL over again, really nice, haha, just that this time, people are less shy, like myself... can't wait for a few year down the road, when im teaching a class of my own, telling about my crazy journey to confirmation and joining junior catechists..

Sob, prelims are in less than a week away for me, crap crap crap... i REALLY haven't started with my studying... cept for SS... my WEAKEST subject... dunno why, can't seem to pass...

So anyways, good luck for ALL your prelims or exams of any sort and WORK HARD ok? this is it, the final lap of the race... CHIONG!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE FINISH LINE!!!

Peace.

adam khoo sucks

2006-05-06T14:28:00.000+08:00

sorry but i have to use this means to calm down.

well i've already calmed down quite alot by looking through the sites with "adam khoo sucks" on them. yay.

he really really does

the "i am gifted so are you" workshop memory just popped back into my life. and guess how much i hated it.

gary lee the pervert ass came to school with the same music man. gods. i wished i hadnt been sitting on chairs. stupid skirt. if he recognised me i'll want to cry. luckily he didnt look as mouse like as someone. but he's an irritance all right

i cant say that the freaks cant conduct a good laugh out session but the real thing, the workshop i mean, is AWFUL.

i discourage anyone with greatest solemity. adam khoo isnt worth your money. he cheats feelings. i needed like alot of spiritual help after that. although pride isnt what is too much important. the chinese person in me says, honour and pride is a must. adam khoo's workshop is a freak hoax to jumble your feelings. sucky

hate him!

the reality is, many will want to go now, cause its cheap. sorry dears, not worth your time

MY POINT IS. DONT GO FOR THE PROGRAMME

mates, in any possible encounter of adam khoo and his ronnies, pls avoid and laugh with caution

fakes!

2006-05-03T15:22:00.000+08:00

Hey peeps!
good luck for your exams!!
seeya on 14th may and take care!!
love you guys~

check this site ! http://www.thedavincidialogue.com/
the primary focus of the da vinci dialogue is to help christians prepare for the evitable question that will arise with the release of the film, the da vinci code, facts by experts and fun stuff

fast facts on confirmation

TRUE
3. The bishop extends his hands over all to be confirmed, praying that they may receive the Holy Spirit.
5. Annointing gives the Catholic a responsibility and special grace to profess and practice the faith openly and fearlessly.
6. Holy chrism is olive oil and balm, blessed by bishops on Holy Thursday.

FALSE
1. Confirmation is recognition that we are adults...there is no special grace from the Holy Spirit associated with it.
2. Only the Bishop himself may minister Confirmation. - - - [A priest may act in his place with permission]
4. Holy chrism, which is baptismal water mixed with olive oil, is marked with the sign of the cross on each person to be confirmed. - - - [Olive oil and balsam]
7. The slight striking of the cheek reminds us that even though we don't have to be ready to suffer, we should remember those who did in the past. - - - [We must be willing to suffer, too]
8. The weapons in a confirmed Christian soldier's arsenal are [suffering/sacrifice, prayer, good example] and discouragement.
9. Not being confirmed is not a sin, but it weakens the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
10. Confirmation, after proper study, means additional study in the future is not really necessary. - - - [Ongoing study is part of Christian life]

easter gifts

2006-04-16T15:44:00.000+08:00

i hope you guys had a very wonderful easter.

guess what, i was JOYOUS.

i owe most of it to basil. such a great friend. actually i was quite down the past few days. i hurt some people along the way. i talked to brendan of course but i needed other help. flooded alot onto basil, i added in this 'i have cathecist that died in my life that i always could talk to about anything in the past.' obviously refering to john lah. i called john almost like everyday since like december or smth. in school, after school, during art. anytime i thought i may just catch hold but noooo....he changed his number suddenly. arghhh!!! i was very miserable while talking to basil, crying (natalie rarely cries. rarely gets too emotional), then he promised me to get hold of john if i get hold of myself. i didnt know whether to be doubtful, but basil always keeps promises, the next day i was told to call this number. it was frightening to be given a number. strange, but desperate actions! then the guy on the phone said 'hello nat' ... mannnn, that was already heartwarming!! i love john, reassurance is tremendous. but of course the conversation will remain a mystery...haha.

THANK YOU SO MUCH BASIL. I OWE YOU! it was quite difficult to think where to put my trust. in the end, just follow your heart (brendan's twisted words)(and maybe the willow tree in pocahauntus)

and for those who dont know who is john. its john nalpon. some of us werent here in sec one and two to get taught by him. but yup, he might be history. still remember he ringing me up after school to go church to talk talk talk. nicholas png also went. and i cant remember whether any more. but he's a guidance to me yeahs.

why cant you be free for our confirmation! ...

sorry but i was in freaking high spirits today.

thanks basil for searching for my lost old friend. haha

now its time to find raymond hurely...

tears of joy!

HAPPY EASTER TO EVERYONE!
STAY HAPPY ALWAYS!
AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL APRIL BABIES!
(:

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist,directs you where to do.

So make the best of this test, and don't ask why.

It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable,but in the end is right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial.

For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.

It'a something unpredictable,but in the end is right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

I hope you had the time of your life. (:

Many nights we prayed, with no proof anyone could hear. In our hearts a hope for a song, we barely understood.. Now we are not afraid although we know theres much to fear.. We were moving mountains long before we knew we could.. There can be miracles when you believe, though hope is frail its hard to kill.. Who knows what miracles you can achieve, when you believe somehow you will.. You will when you believe. In this time of fear when prayer so often proves in vain, hope seems like the summer bird too swiftly flown away. Yet now I’m standing here my hearts so full, I cant explain.. Seeking faith and speakin words I never thought I’d say.. There can be miracles when you believe, though hope is frail its hard to kill.. Who knows what miracles you can achieve, when you believe somehow you will.. You will when you believe. They don’t always happen when you ask, and it’s easy to give in to your fears.. But when you’re blinded by your pain can’t see the way, get through the rain.. A small but still, resilient voice says hope is very near. There can be miracles when you believe, though hope is frail its hard to kill.. Who knows what miracles you can achieve, when you believe somehow you will.. You will when you believe.

i went to a temple and i didnt find God
i went to a church and i didnt find God
i went to a mosque and i didnt find God
i looked into my heart and i found him

i just watched a national geographic show about mohammad on islam. very interesting. he's really a good person. didnt know he was 25 when he married a 40 year old woman and had 4 girls and 2 boys who all died at birth. he went onto this holy mountain to pray and in a cave and there he felt a very holy presence and was 'engulfed' by the archangel gabriel. he then was given the word of God in periods of time and there the koran was made. and at death your good and bad will be weighed before God. haha. cool cool.

passion play! 12:30am friday . some of our people will be performing . yay

see you

and no class this week. happy holy week and easter.

2006-04-07T22:54:00.000+08:00

natalie's almost 16.

i'll miss loving seasme street. and acting naive. really acting. i'm usually dead serious. haha

You wait, little girl, on an empty stage,
for fate to turn the light on.
Your life, little girl, is an empty page
that men will want to write on

to write on.........

You are sixteen going on seventeen
Baby, it's time to think
Better beware, be canny and careful
Baby, you're on the brink

You are sixteen going on seventeen
Fellows will fall in line
Eager young lads and roues and cads
Offer you food and wine

Totally unprepared are you to face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared are you
Of things beyond your ken

You'll need someone older and wiser
Telling you what to do,
I am seventeen going on eighteen
I'll take care of you!

I am sixteen going seventeen
I know that I'm naive
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet
And willingly I believe

I am sixteen going seventeen
Innocent as a rose
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies
What do I know of those?

Totally unprepared am I to face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my ken

I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do,
You are seventeen going on eighteen
I'll depend on you!

thats from the sound of music. old movie. but i think i'm gonna be the sun behind the based contagious clouds. prince Hal from King Henry IV part 1, i'll exit from my solilquy and be really me. natalie's 16 soon. natalie's got a dream!

yay!

spiritual forms of cleanliness bounty
a sense of thoughtfulness sunken for you
but still the rage of the temptress mighty
a breeding ground for love so true

penning minds that see these through
know the foes allure in mist
bound to hope and just aloof
of glorious possession be of those knew

stones and gravel rust thy lands
in mids of moulding the evil's begotten
united souls awed and wondered
sacred eyes unfold some grace

poem speaks of the confirmation camp. inspired by francis koh. :)

fated godparents?

2006-04-03T22:01:00.000+08:00

about last Sunday's meeting of parents, godparents and teens, i really have thought about this whole "choosing the right godparent" thing, and i really was wondering if i should stick with my baptismal godparents or not...

cause i am not exactly close to my godparents, even though they are my relatives, and the only reason why we meet is because of family stuff... and they have never told me or taught me anything about my Christian life...

seriously, i thought that sucked... but i was sort of a Sunday catholic myself, so i just went with the flow... even till last Sunday i refused to speak up about this issue of my godparents and just went with the flow, choosing back my baptismal godparents as my confirmation godparents...

and during the session we had... i surely did find out how little i knew about my godparents and they about me... it was embarrassing both for me and my godparents... luckily my mom was there to point out that we should both take responsibility and be more open and have more godchild and godparent outings...

like what the catechists said "let this be a start" i thought, but deep in my heart, i sort of knew nothing would change and i totally screwed up my choice of godparents...

it wasn't until later that evening when having dinner that i discovered that my godparents wanted to go visit overseas relatives on the day of my confirmation! but however, because my godma's colleague went for maternity leave and she couldn't take leave and had to cancel the trip...

talk about divine intervention...

so with this my godparents could now come for my confirmation... i guess this is a sign that my godparents are "fated" to be my confirmation ones too... everything happens for a reason i guess...

i really hope that i can learn to be more open with my godparents and become closer to them, with prayer and God, i guess nothing is impossible...

THE BRICK

A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown. The angry driver
then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting, "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?" The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister...please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," He pleaded. "I threw the brick because no one else would stop..." With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car. "It's my brother, "he said "He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."

Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."

Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts. A quick look told him everything was going to be okay. "Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful child told the stranger. Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy! push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home.

It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message: "Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!"

God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.

Thought for the Day:

If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.

If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it.

He sends you flowers every spring.

He sends you a sunrise every morning Face it, friend - He is crazy about you!

2006-03-24T15:15:00.000+08:00

hey guys, there's one thing for sure that eventually that high feeling would die off. seriously, no one can change him or herself that quickly. it takes time for us to develop spiritually and mentally. even i am feeling the same way as the two of you. what we need now is to try and try cause who says it's easy?. i will help you but you all must have an open mind and heart.
so... just try hard. ((:
you got us!

-drey.

keep smiling
keep trying
knowing you can
always count on me
for sure!
that's what friends are for.

colin dear, i totally agree with you.

i even bothered to watch my first nc-16 movie...when i'm still 3 weeks away from my birthday.but v for vendetta rocks anyway. haha. its not sexual lah ppl...

after camp, i was going back to school for extra lessons and stuff. tiring really but i went shopping like forever after that. i just stopped my shopping spree this tuesday. so its like i've gone all out to forget church life altogether i guess. oh my grandfather's out of hospital! i was at orchard road almost everyday so went glenneagles when free to see him. poor thing...hai. i bothered to go back to find my favourite m18 manga book. i think its m18, her stories are over sexual. haha. but i guess i've already reached a level where i dont stray away from my own principles and beliefs.

actually, seriously, my parents are letting me have the freedom to choose because they dont really educate me about my faith in the first place. all along i've been relying on my own principles and beliefs to counter argue my parents and anyone who stands in my way. this is me. sometimes, the obvious is the catholic faith does counter my beliefs, like i think cloning is ok to a certain extent etc. so its quite hard really. dont know whether to accept or reject some stuff.

i'm definately still a bad person of course. just a little more weary of people. sometimes i just suddenly sing christian songs or "dont you wish your girlfriend was hot like me". haha. i'm extreme. i told the belgium priest alot during confession. yup. still working on these faults. i have one that is a total disgrace and will hurt many people in class. i'm really sorry. gotta correct my indifference.

yeah, i think i'm going through alot of distrust now. the girl sitting on my left in class is confirmed already and she'll question 'whats so scary about it?' cause i fumble all the time that i may not be able to cope....

school is getting in the way. oh many stinking tests i have next week is like e math, english, lit, chem, chinese. and i had many this week too. extra cirriculum too! have to become a studious freak for Os. Cant be helped.

need loads of prayers and help from all. i keep calling john ... no avail. i was closer to him then gery. we met up to talk alot. yeah, so i got really mad this year that john was gone and got angry with gery. jolene rocks yeah. but its over now. need to jia you even more.

i feel bless to have you guys around.

see you soon.

sorry for the sea of words....

love you all natalie

hey people,

was doing my s.s. project and decided to blog again...

so anyways, days have passed and spiritual highness is dropping...

i apologize for spoiling the mood of the blog with this first problematic post...

but, hell... im seriously returning back to my old me...

you see my absolute weakness is that i'll sin and then i'll get guilty and ashamed and guess what? i'll simply give up trying to be good and continue sinning...

and yar, sadly, in falling into that pit once again... falling deeper and deeper each second...

becoming cold to God, not praying... sinning... not "experiencing"...

i guess no one said it was going to be easy to get to God, so yar, i guess my battle starts sooner than expected...

for all similar others too, pray for us... for strength, for enlightment... i guess that's the most you all can do...

the rest is up to us... but with your prayers, half the battle is won...

out in the dark again, Colin.

Hey Muffinpeople!! It's been a real blessing to know you guys. This camp has been an amazing experience for me. I got to know you guys so much more and i saw the sides of some of you i never knew you guys had. (E.g. Benedict, Ben Low, Ben Huang, Ederweiss, Andrew, Joel....ok basically everybody in the class) I didn't get to go for last year's camp cos i was in Thailand i had to go for the recamp with Ederweiss and mellissa. Anybody know what happened to her?? Yeah so i did not get to really bond with you guys. Just to let you all know you people are an amazing bunch of people including gerry n jolene! At the start of camp i was just wishing to go home i wa ssuper tired because i had a late night on friday. But after a few sessions i was sort of wishing the camp was longer by a teensy bit(haha).

gerry teo - i don't know what to say to you.
for all the heartaches and headaches.
your butt probabl;y aches too.
to be honest you're like my mother.
in a good way obviously.
i think just "i love you" is all.
i mean it. i really do. (:

jolene gerard-thank you for being such an inspiration.
i wish i could speak like you. a newscaster's voice.
i'll not forget the time at that pathetic run down
hopeless looking airport.
thanks.

to the class-im sorry for being such pain at times.
im not exactly what you'd say, close to the class.
however, i do appreciate you fellow cogs.
stay pretty women.
stay handsome gentlemen.

cause we were due for a miracle
we're waiting for a sign
stare straight into the sun.

HI PEOPLE!!!

so nice to have the internet back, it's been like a month since i used the internet, so pardon me if i have missed anything on the blog...

anyways, the camp was GREAT!! a fantastic way to end the 4 years i must say, isn't it?

i really wanted so much to happen that i totally lost it...

you see, i started to put away my "wait for others to do first" mentality and kneeldown whenever i, myself was ready and not wait for others... but i ended up being a kiasu jerk...

then at the outpouring, i was disappointed that God didn't touch me after trying SO hard to surrender to him, and yes ben huang, i kneeled until my arms ached and my knees were red, and i concentrated so hard i literally felt nauseous... i REALLY wanted something to happen...

i became all quiet and moody after the session as you all could see during the group sharing, i wasn't "hyper" at all... i was just plain disappointed...

after the sharing when all of you went for dinner, or was it supper, i asked jolene about it, and then she told me that it was ok for that to happen and then the MaGiC word came: "maybe God just wanted you to relax at this camp" and i started to cry...

it was true, i wanted SOO much to happen to me at this camp cause it was the last camp that i forgot how to relax, so i thanked God and yup, it was happy, joyful me all the way after that...

THANK YOU JOLENE!!

o, and the friendship session, the BEST session i must say, sure you all will have to agree with me...

when benedict first asked me to go up, i was like: "omg... SO embrassing" but i went anyway, and it felt great saying sorry to him for not always being warm and friendly and somtimes giving him a cold shoulder...

then if im not wrong, nicholas was second to asked me... to pray with him... we had known each other almost our whole lives... but i started becoming hypocritical to him, i got annoyed with his behaviour in cat class, and i bitched about him to my school friends and family... even though he was still loyal to me as a friend...

sorry nicholas...

so i poured out everything to him and said sorry, and our breaking points was when i said: "remember the time where you asked me whether we'll still be friends after we go to different schools and i said yes?" and then we both cried like babies, and hugged each other... damn made a scene didn't we, haha, caught a glimpse of many people turning their heads to look at us, before returning to cry and hug nicholas...

the session was great...

anyways, it was also great to see ALL of you get touch in one way or another...

o, and some messages for you all:(in alphabetical order)

anyway, GREAT camp people!! and may the holy spirit be with you all the way of your journey of life, God bless, and see you all next next sunday!!

peace.

Colin.

hi people! glad to hear ur sharings n other stuff.The camp for me was not bad, althought i did not stay until the last session.So SAD!!! hearing all the good stuff said about the last session. I did not really feel much during the out pouring session.the first session was the worst man! playing all the stupid lame games!! Lucky god sent the mosquito smoking guy(sry eng very poor) to stop the ladder game. ants were crawling in my pants!the confession felt good:D.

Thnx to all u ppl. the camp was a good exprience.Hey i dun have all ur contacts. could someone send a email with everyones contacts to everyone in the class so we could keep in contact.

thats all for now

+god bless+

Andrew Ng(hey natalie, i alr posted something)

natalie here

2006-03-15T12:55:00.000+08:00

hey guys! i'm so glad we are sharing our thoughts and feelings and moments of the camp. try getting the people that we arent very familiar with to post too. get them involved. for me its mervin, andrew, alex and nick. i dont really exactly have their contacts to start with. i hope you like the photos. we'll take more soon. and a big thanks to joel sim for his camera photo at the right time.

as we continue to journey towards confirmation (which is 8 july 2006), there is a honest and truthful feeling we're gonna have that we are gonna bounce down back into our wells again. according to gery, its completely normal. darrell is afraid, i could be afraid and deep inside we all are. so i encourage all of us to continue to share and think together. confirmation is also about community remember. we will strengthen each other.!

i just thought we could link any sites like vatican or whatsoever to our blog. you know, like if we are free, to access and learn some more. if you find any sites pertaining to daily reflections or hmmm important topics, why not share and debate! haha.

enjoying your holidays? i got loads of hol hw to finish up. poohey. the spam thing on the tagboard is really all not true. dont confuse relationships, that will affect the class spirit! and to dennis: yup, i think you rock. proffessing something magical .

i'll try to make it for the youth gathering thingy yeah!

lets get this ongoing.

still must pray for rachel!

God bless +

love natalie

2006-03-14T17:32:00.000+08:00

Whoa dennis, your courage is admirable. professing your love for someone so openly takes some guts, and it speaks alot about you as an individual. So crystal, do accept this excellent young gentleman to be your special one before he slips away.

Anyway, I came here today to post an entry about the camp. Now, this camp has been a really different experience for me. I approached the camp with the same attitude I had for the past four years: that of cynicism, a distrust and dread of all things spiritual. I had never enjoyed church camp. maybe its because I have never been able to withstand seemingly endless hours of contemplation or maybe its because I never felt like i fitted into church. The world outside; that is, the world outside church, always felt more familar and comforting to me. I belonged there and felt accepted there. However, in church, it was different. I have never really warmed to the people in church but of course it is no fault of theirs: i got off to a bad start a few years ago and you know, never really got over it.

But i digress. That is not the topic at hand. Returning to the subject of camp, I went into camp dreading it. But it is testament to everyone in the camp and of course the experience of Jesus that I left it feeling a little wistful that the entire affair was over.

The camp itself was cathartic. It was really a spiritual and emotional cleansing. The highlight of the retreat was of course the outpouring. I attended the session not expecting and not wanting anything. certain events in the morning before had not been conducive for prayer. Also, I did not understand why I was the only one who felt ticklish instead of touched when gerry and jolene prayed for us and washed our feet. It didn't seem right to be so distracted and flippant at such solemn an occasion and i did give up on harbouring any hopes of an experience with jesus.
but of course as the saying goes, the lord works in mysterious ways. it was when i was in the doldrums that I felt him. And He struck me and I cried, despite trying my best not to cry. well, you may be right gerry. crying is cool.

and the friendship session in the last day was certainly a magical experience. I have never seen such a sight where friends and in a larger context, human beings, are not afraid to express their feelings and openly show them. And maybe this is what differentiates the people in church. They dare to, and they are proud to be, human, in all senses of the word. and this perhaps is what being a child of God is all about.

you know, I have some questions about stuff that needs to be resolved. gerry and jolene, is it ok if i talk to you guys about them?

now, it has been a long post and i would like to end off here by saying that all of you are wonderful individuals and i truly regret not taking the effort and courage to getting to know all of you better. Being apathetic and residing comfortably in the proverbial comfort zone seemed to be a much easier option at that time. I did not want to come out of my shell to show myself and in fact, this sentiment still lingers on. Taking this step would be a huge leap and perhaps too radical a move for me to ever take. But y'know, I'll try.

And lastly, this may be hard for all of you to believe and it is really hard for me to say it. But, after four years, all of you guys have grown on me. And i do love you guys. Really.

Justin.

2006-03-14T13:00:00.000+08:00

Eh... before the camp, i realised i was hoping for something huge to happen during the camp. Cause i actually really really reaaaalllyy wanted to feel something during the camp... During the pray-over session, well, nothing happened at all. So go on to the i was confused upset and angry at God. I was like questioning in my head, 'What are you playing at?' After i realised i was angry at God, i felt so horrible at myself. I mean, pls la... he help me so much then i get angry at him. Made me feel worse right... but i still couldn't control my feelings..

Then anyway i really needed to talk to someone and my mind thought of Gery first. After talking to her and after tears and hugs, i felt... slightly better. Then after i went back up. We were all like, reflecting la. Then everyone was like so happy happy one. Just made me feel worse. So finally i cannot tahan, i had to leave the room. So i 'stormed' back up. But then Ederweiss [The angel of my whole camp!!] at that precise moment came. Then cause i cannot tahan, i spilled everything to her la. Then seemed like she really understood me and everything. Finally, i felt much better. Cause i found out God gave me something i really had wanted.

Next day, that hole in my heart didn't exactly heal la... still got hole that time. I thought all hope was lost. Everything i wanted to pour into the camp (as it was the last) was gone. Cause we had hardly anytime left... nothing could have happened during that short period. I really wanted my life to change for the better... So during our sharing, my attitde was still sort of the, "Watever" type of attitude. But once the friendship session started! And we all started... to erm... erm... you know. Cry and say we love each other, we are friends forever and blah... Well, something in me just clicked into place. Seemed like wat i had been wishing and praying for came true. It was weird, during the camp what i had been praying for the last few months didn't enter my mind at all. However at that precise moment. I found, God gave me something i had been praying for, and MORE!

So i was so happpppppppppy!!! Ask the girls la.. i couldn't stop crying. Stupid emotional me~

Well, anyway i just wanted to say that God had given me what i had wanted and even BETTER!

So come on people! This is the changing point in our lives! Keep the CRUSIFIX... eh.. how to spell ah... ehehe... Anyway, keep the CROSS we got close to you. And lets listen to our conscious more okay? and PRAISE THE LORD!!! AND SPREAD THE LOVE!!(like what Drey always says!)

So people, i just need to tell u all that... *inhales* If you all have any problem, you can come and find me. Really! I'll do my very best. And i'm good at giving advices to everyone!(except myself) Or at least i try la... ehehe...

Okay, that wraps it up~
Sayonara,

I will start with the pray over session. Darrell and I was chatting at one corner during the first half of the session. We chat about TT CUTE GAL FALL LE tt boy also. Then josh and colin was kneeing for quite some time so both of us bet who is going to cannot tahan and sit down first. In the end colin won with the record time of WHOLE SESSION. Siao la i wonder how he do tt. Kneecap not pain meh?
ok back to me and Darrell. Darrell told me, ben i think i dun wan to go for pray over cos last year i try before already. then i say i think i go try la we stop chatting le. So i went and bang my head on the floor. very shiok la u smack your head on the floor so hard and u dun feel the pain. Then i sit up and saw darrell kneeing, ready for the pray over (I think he heard me bang on the floor and wanted to try it). When ppl came and pray over him he started crying. He cry like thousand years nv cry before.
After the session i keep asking ppl how was my fall(the banging of head on floor). they told me it was loud!! then i start to action NOT PAIN NOT PAIN!!! i also ask ppl do i still look handsome and my nose got any problem ma. lucky nothing happen thanks to HOLY SPIRIT!!!!!!!

i love you all. muffin people rocks!
thanks to darrell, yaonan, mervin and freddy for making my day! i love you guys! i want to thank the girls for everything. everything! without this class, there wouldn't be laughters on sunday morns and there wouldn't be any francis crazy singing! confession was a very different experience for me cause i dont usually have mini talks with the priest. i'm just happy that every one was somehow touched by the Holy Spirit and feeling the "high-ness"! am i right? of course. haha....
pray for rachel's safety and also rachel's friends, who are darrell's friends. :D
i thank God for this bunch of weird people. though they're weird and all but they make a difference in my life.i'm grateful for them, Lord.
haha.... yaonan and darrell's dating! haha.... aren't they are 'cute' couple? haha... no wait. darrell's tow-timing yaonan! he likes the ankle guard girl! -shocks- and he didn't even know her name until i told her.
mervin's our future breakdancer! he's darn cool when he did some stunt. can't be explained. even gery was in a state of shock.
i shall end here. take care you guys and remember:-
25TH MARCH, SATURDAY.
YOUTH GATHERING
AFTER 5.30PM MASS AT 6.30
TRY TO BE THERE!! OKAY, PPLE?
yupsyups.

sweet home

2006-03-13T14:10:00.000+08:00

i'm the first!!! everyone try to do some reflections here k!
ANYWAY, OUR CONFIRMATION DATE IS SET! oh man.. its the 8th of july! 4 months. yup. goodness!

camp!
oh wait the fun fair was really fun. sngs spirit duhs..(not any other ij, hahaha - no insult)
well i was disappointed there wasnt any air con. phooey! and the bed was narrow and mini..
all the praise and worship sessions were fun and i lost quite a bit of my voice!

the best part of the camp for me was... confession, the act of contrition thingy. i told father france (or whatever the spelling is) alot, very openly for my confession, i wasnt really scared, its easy to talk to ppl for me. but father was proud of me and he shared his feelings too. thats like a very personal experience i never really ever encountered with a priest. he asked me whether i was scared for confirmation, i said yes. i told him my reasons and he said they were good points and he changed my perspective of confirmation altogether. that its something to bring you to a mature level of a catholic so you are able to answer to yourself, think for yourself, and do mission or learn outside our normal settings. its a chance to be able to judge! haha. father also asked me to say the words "God is the wealth of my heart" and i think i will be saying that quite often now, it gives me peace and inspiration. after confession i felt really at peace. to sing and to hug everyone. was really happy cause father had showed me alot of light. and i am so grateful to that.

the mass on the second day was ok. i could say the reading rather well seated down with the crowd but i was jittering when i had to go up. haha. why! i could even here myself shiver. the priest's talk was also quite good, about the U shaped graoh, veryintereesting and motivating. i'm typing this with my eyes closed... too tired so bear with me.
oh yeah, darrell! luckily we thought of calling you to wake you up. or else you would miss the whole philipino mass thingy

darrell's coupling with benji yaonan now. sweet relationship. have frenched already!

barbercue was fun, thank all those who cooked the food. thanks to bren for helping to start the fires.! and the enthu production and art marking. the dance was really out of this world. totally cool. the pre graduation!

the friendship session was warn and touching. talked and thanked loads of people. touched and glad. cried alot actually. thats really true feelings. the bond of the class will always be strong yeah. i had to thank brendan too. sorry nicholas png but brendan has been my friend of 10 years now. he's been doing so much for me and i very little in return. guilty ! the best thing with him is we dont have to speak to understand. thats the level.. wohoo! thank you to him and the whole of our class. raymond too!

oh wait, javier came for the barbercue session. i was joking that bren's my bf, cos i wanted him to help them with the fire.. lame ! short.. haha. thankful for all the facils and cathecists. even someone called basil. the snake in hp and a herb leaf thing. sorry for 'avoiding' you, i know who is darrell, i was just daydreaming. and i was doozing off just now, yawn.

well the camp would be a success if you made it one. so its like really different for each individual. for me it was better than the last camps cause my heart was rock hard solid and well i hated to cry
thank God for bryan too, i knew him during sec 1 camp so its been a long journey from then to now and lots of things had been bad and now its going the right ways.

i'm proud of alot of people. our class, everybody. the best improvement is darrell and nicholas. so much differenent and better and friendly

hahahaa

the food was ok lah

rachelll! i said that more than 100 times.
where is john too!!!!!!!

why do they make things like they do

2006-03-08T19:35:00.000+08:00

well birds were made for flying, thats why they have wings
but if beds werent made for bouncing, tell me why do they have springs?
i dont know, how about you, why do they make things like they do

if they make things like they should, everything i tried will turn out good.

its from disney favourites. i do listen to kids songs still. in awe of its wonder still.

i'm just a man in the middle of the complicated plan
no one to tell me the signs
i'm just a creature of heaven in this complicated world

i'm just a man
a stupid man

i think thats the lyrics, by my favourite band. BEEGEES! its more adult, but still of the same content.
directions! and wondering. its just so hard these days to sit down alone to think what i'm about, how am i going to achieve stuff in this ever changing moving world.

bleahs. even a young innocent kid thinks!

obviously the best way is to find a rich husband, marry, have lots of kids, divorce, get the money, the children get the education and the children have well paying good jobs (at least some), then they'll support you for the rest of your life. and you'll still be rich cause your ex hubby has to give you money every month

i'll be a tai tai! but where does the service (to God) come in? ... oh i'll appear at charity events and catwalks.
this is so stuck!

actually i'm writing a letter to my china fren in chinese now. chinese and english dont match. too complicated! so i'll go over to write for him. change the text to chinese. !

anyone wanna go art musuem? admission fee is $1:50 plus only! cubism etc exhibitions.

thats my thoughts for today.

my ex partner fantastised about her tuition teach in her dream. normal i say. just normal.

sexual is normal., we see too much

ra ta ta .

love natalie

2006-03-05T23:35:00.000+08:00

hey! hi! hello!
nat, hope you have fun during your school's funfair.though you may not be with the class for just half a day, but still you are coming for the camp! that's good enough. don't get stressed up and all about the camp thingy. anyways, i'm really happy that our ex mates knw about the blog! yippie. at least now there's some form of communication for all of us.
hey guys. remember that time gerry did some activity to show us how far ahead we need to get to comfirmation? well, many of us still wander behind and some in front. wells... i will do my best to get everyone on the same track so we all can walk together to comfirmation. really hope the camp would help me or maybe some of us to achieve it!
love you all!!! i can see that the class is more bonded somehow and i'm really happy about it.
to rach: have fun during the trip! don't feel guilty for not being with us during the camp! we will pray for your safety, will keep you in our prayers! there's still time for us to be more bonded.
anyways, want to wish each and everyone all the best in your studies and see you all for camp!!
DON'T BE LATE!!

-drey-:D

we walk together; hand in hand.
through the obstacles we face,
we face it together.

this is just where i came in

2006-03-05T15:53:00.000+08:00

hey all. natalie here. i dont exactly use or write blogs. bear with me!
hmm today's the 5th of march. the last class before confirmation, i'm surely gonna get very mentally and psychologically down during these few days. but there's so much to do! four tests and one sngs fiesta coming next week
i'm sorry to say, yes i have to attend my fiesta, sngs means the world to me. accept my important decision will you ppl.
(p.s. i cant stand peter koh, too strict for comfort. and his homilies are terribly unmoving. - gonna complain)
well we sang quite ta lota songs today! and kinda fun singing. ! its horrible rachel's not gonna be there next week with us, pray her trip will rock.
the lady really had alot of life experiences, thats amazing. but she's not that a good speaker. oh well, have to take it sometimes.
i saw bryan the ex facil during mass. tried not to look at him cos in sec 1 camp i cried to him then he told gery and john and i was sooo uspet. but he is coming for our confirmation camp! ahh,,, i'm all grown up so i'll stand firm to him!
11 is javier's birthday! i seriously have no idea about this person but i thought wow, he's sacrificing his birthday day for us confirmation youths. thats really cool.,,must do smth! but turns out he's not coming on saturday. haha. he looks kinda scary. i think i watch many korean shows... (louis ong looked like one of the guys! arrghhh....nat's not gonna be obsessed!!)
poor darrell.! DEAR DARRELL, CLASS STARTS AT 11 NOT 1130. haha... i brought the marker to write on his cast. eh that freddy was so bad to accidentally twist it. hahhaa. its his right hand so its such a bother.. take care!
oh and then i saw joshua tan,...he owes me heaps of presents. i forgive him!
well, going into a mental breakdown soon.
justin remember to bring the papers next time - the poor girl, 2 years old to suffer with this fate. ppffft.
thats all!
rachel!!!!!!!! eeyer. better be good!
haha

see you guys.
