ydae we had a poly cluster outing to east coast park! my cg only i turned up in the end.... honestly wat coach han shared abt making frens within the cluster n us mingling ard, i was quite skeptical at first... but i really did make a lot of new frens! we played some team games which were fun, but i tink the ultimate was the watch-the-chicken-fly captain's ball game lah! it's like captain's ball played by 5 teams at one go, all fighting for: 2 soccer balls - 1 pt each, 1 frisbee - 3 pts, 1 PAPAYA - 5 pts, n the ULTIMATE...... a FROZEN CHICKEN - pts i tink is a lot lah. i was the captain for my team... ok so when the soccer balls started hitting me, i was like, "ok i'm an ex-netballer, i'm used to this..." then the PAPAYA. jonathan, who was on my team, was getting into a tussle with this girl frm another team, n i was screaming, "GET THAT PAPAYA JON!!!" n so as he related to me later, he squeezed that papaya with all his might n it burst, with all the juice n mushy pieces dripping... the girl of cos, shrieked n let go. so jon was really exhilarated, n he gave a wide-eyed grin to me n shouted, "SHARMAINE! THE PAPAYA!!!" n flung the half-open fruit AT me. i tried to catch it, but it was too... juicy. slipped thru my hands, smashed on me n fell to the ground. PAPAYAS ARE SMELLY!!!! i smelled like puke can! -_-" ok so next, coach han released the chicken n we were all fighting for that... i heard asher tore the drumstick out so we had 2 parts of the chicken officially. one word- CHAOS! the drumstick n the chicken started flying to me OVER N OVER AGAIN! the few times i caught the 'wholer' part of the chicken, i felt 'chicken water' squirt on my face can! *faint* n catching that lean, mean drumstick took some skill... i can actually catch with one hand. n then after the game i was like "wah the chicken nt bad ah, sumore marinated one..." then this girl looked at me puzzled n said, "no, it was juz a normal frozen chicken wat..." o_o!!! all that "gravy" n "pepper bits n herbs" that i thought were on the chicken were actually the soil n grass after having been kicked n thrown ard!!! wahhhhhh... sumore my team din win, i sacrificed for nothing. haha... kidding... for the FUN lah.


but i tink the climax of the day was definitely the praise & worship session we had on the beach... it was getting dark, n the stars shone brightly above us. shawn played on his guitar n jon led worship, n truly the sea breeze n the sound of the waves crashing on the shore were the best accompaniment... it was SO annointed. the 40+ of us juz raised our hands in praise, n there was this time God's presence was so strongly felt, that coach han juz got us to kneel... n we all did, on the sand. AMAZING. i wanted to hear frm Abba, i needed a word of love. n i got it. i really got it... He told me that EVERY word frm Him is a PROMISE, nothing is said in vain. there is nothing that He has spoken into my life that He will not fulfill. a promise remains a promise until i see it being fulfilled. this is the assurance, the hope, that i can rely on...


i had to work 5.30am shift the nxt morning, which is tdy, sunday! wake up 3.30am! ok lah but i got to go church... but i'm really glad i din leave the event early... Abba juz showed me that i was meant to be there, that my portion is so big! like what pastor lawrence shared tdy, dosen't matter if i dun perform, He just loves me!


i do regret one thing though... WHY DIN I INVEST IN SUNBLOCK!! I'M BURNT!!!!!!!!!!!!! *sob*

wow. din realise it's been a month since i last updated... nothing happened yet so much to think abt. my sis got the moe teaching scholarship to go to france n stdy in a uni there... if she goes, she'll be there for 3 yrs n come back as a french language teacher... she's in quite a dilemma over it; to go or stay n take a double degree in smu in political science/business. so her dilemma kinda "overflowed" to me oso lah. i want her to go yet i oso dun want her to go... but of cos i'm nt doing anything to influence her decision (only when she asks me lah.... heh).


hai. as for myself, i'm oso wavering in my decision NOT to continue n do a degree... everyone else of my peers CONTINUOUSLY ask me if i'm going to uni... blah blah blah. getting quite sick of it. i mean, these frustrations wld nt have been aroused if they had nt been asking me anyway... i dun feel like juz getting a degree juz bcos everyone else says it's good to have one. on the other hand, i keep hearing abt how they can't get into nus/ntu/smu business so they're either going 1) australia 2) SIM 3) any other degree offered by nus/ntu bcos of their gpa... honestly, i feel the pressure bcos... they have such determination to strive on n improve themselves with a degree. whereas me... i hafta say i'm quite happy with my gpa of 3.5, n i noe i can get into a good uni with that. BUT... i dun wanna repeat my mistake as i did with JC. i've decided to take my time n go with the flow frm within me. i'm gonna hear frm inside out, nt outside in.


well, who noes, maybe i'll take up a part-time degree in the near future... anyway i've been working at CX as freelance for abt 2 mths now. the freelance part is nt really freelance... i'm working almost full-time hrs, but yet i really enjoy every single day at work leh. u noe charlene told me ydae when we started work, "very sian leh... i dun wanna work already... u nt sian meh?" n i was like, "sian meh? no leh, i enjoy leh..." n i was quite shocked with my immediate answer. haha... n i've been enjoying ABUNDANCE of favour with my colleagues. i really dunno why (i mean of cos i noe is Christ in me lah... FIGURE OF SPEECH.) but it's really a distinct difference. my managers love me, my supervisors love me... haha, some ego-talk here. my officers love me... been enjoying milo n chocolate treats frm them. heehee, win my heart over liao. so i've decide to go part-time with cx frm nxt month onwards. ok, i'll only work 5.5hrs each day... which leaves me a lot of time to pursue my korean language lessons in future (yes yes..s see, it's nt a 3-min thing...), or baking... or whatever i wanna do! yayyy... haha. well, there are definitely greater perks in going part-time, such as the FOC n ID tkts i can get! HONG KONG, KOREA, the WHOLE WORLD here i come!! bwahaha... i mean, where else can u travel to HKG on business class for S$200? bwahaha...


but i oso hoping... i wanna stdy in le cordon bleu paris! n get le grand diplome! ABBA I WANT!
