Hey baby, God existed.
Confirmation Camp was a blast, really, i mean it.
Day 1
I admit, the reason for going for that camp and not feigning an illness was because i passed Higher Chinese. If not for that deal i made with God, I would've just swallowed Colgate and excused myself from that camp. But anyways, first day was boring. It was basically just introducing ourselves, making a poster for our group (the Chickens/Romans). The group members were Cristy, Eugenia, Charlene, Denise, Debra, Brian, Donrous & Damian. Jamie and Emilio were my group's facilators =D
The Girls Dormitory was weird and super packed with beds, so much so that it looked like a hospice. && it wasnt air-conditioned. =X
The best part of Day 1 was however, laughing at ________'s butt spilt. Denise pointed out his butt spilt to me, cos we were one of the few sitting somewhere behind him. Zomg. Really, i finally understand why guys should NEVER EVER wear skinny low-cut jeans. No way man. It's so gross. The result of laughing so hysterically was that the guys in our group thought we were uhh, Perverts. So not okay, it was just soo funnaye. xD
Day 2
Morning call at like 6?! Urgh. Then after that, we had the choice of whether we wanted to go for the 7am weekday mass. Obviously, I wasnt that holy yet. (:
Started the day off with feeding the mosquitoes, urgh. Cos it was morning exercise in the field. After that, we played games like Minesfield, building an egg carrier etc. It was a bit boring, cos i played those games before. The egg carrier that was build by the Romans was so horribly filmsy that the egg could roll off it, without breaking (:
We also have Obstacle Course, that WAS fun. (: Our group had to climb under tables, walk in zig zag lines, climb over chairs, pass the chairs towards each other etc, all with our hands tied together. Hahahaha, it was so fun that we asked for a rematch. (:
But but, at night, during the Praise & Worship session, i rediscovered my faith in God. Sang super loudly, for once i opened my golden mouth to sing. HAHAHAH. Everyone was euthusiastically singing alot of songs, and it was like a live band, cos Eugene was singing into the mike and someone else was playing the guitar =D
Then came the healing session. I finally let go of alot of things that'd been in my heart for a looooong time, as long as when i was 7. All the unhappy incidents, the hurts, the anger and hatred towards certain people. Everything, i let go of all of them. Oh wells, I dont have any more burdens now. I'm moving on. That part, alot of people cried. Thankfully the lights were switched off and the room was in total darkness, with the only source of light coming from the candles. Yes, i cried too, because after all these years, I've finally let go of things that I should not have remembered.
Day 3
Last day, super sad. But then, there was the talentime thingy. OMG. I totally embarrassed myself, like eeeew, I wont ever do it again, Shermaine!
Celebreated mass there as well, the air con died on us, I think it was because there were too many people inside the conference room, so yeah, the air cons weren't strong enough to cool everyone down. HAHA. Father JJ was funny, he told us to imagine we were in Iceland and feeling cold instead of feeling hot. It worked (: Mass with just the Sec 3 students was a great experience, cos i mean, the readings, hymns were all read and song by the Sec 3s ourselves. And some guy from Sec 3 cat. class also played the guitar. (:
&& I'm putting my guitar to good use again, finally!
Shermaine and I in church. Sigh. Louis couldnt make me look very tall in the picture ):
I'll end off this post with lyrics from my current favourite song. (:One Way by Hillsong
I lay my life down at Your feet
Cause You're the only one I need
I turn to You and You are always there
In troubled times it's You I seek
I put You first that's all I need
I humble all I am all to You
One way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
One Way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
You are always, always there
Every how and everywhere
Your grace abounds so deeply within me
You will never ever change
Yesterday today the same
Forever till forever meets no end
You are the Way the Truth and the Life
We live by faith and not by sight for You
We're living all for You
