sweet.
the following departure photos are long overdue. i cant be blamed for not posting them up sooner, because i've only just gotten it from a certain SOMEONE -cough, cough- who has been doing noth.. erms recuperating at home for over a month. haha :) that said, at least it did get to me eventually.
btw i say overdue, because they are definitely not outdated. i still think of u guys really often, and i cant begin to say how much i miss all of u. they say u can count the number of true friends u have by seeing who turns up to send u off, and that i find really true. for that, i thank the 30 odd bunch of u - the ppl whom i can trust, whom i have weathered the storms, and busked in the sunshine with. we've built each other up, we've given each other listening ears and comforting words, we've said silent prayers for one another. basically, these are the ppl who really make my day (and then make it unbearingly miserable too, to have to say goodbye).
church kakis!! miss u miss u miss miss u!
rg/rj frens
[xueting shimin i'm missing ur pics!!]
the ecg
smu frens
my dearest family (dad was in melb already then)
i wonder though, how many of these very same ppl would still be seeing me off the 2nd, 3rd, 4th.. time i depart. the litmus test for the truest of frens? lets jus wait n see ;)
its a saturday night. the thing thats depressing bout saturday nights is that you dun realise how much u miss youth service until u log into msn and see no one on ur church frens category online - because they're all at church. then u go about reading ppls blogs cos theres fewer ppl to chat to, and somehow all ur church frens are blogging about the upcoming church camp which u cant go to. *sniffs. lifes a slippery slope.
ahh but just hang in there. because here's the trade off. i went for ocf (overseas christian fellowship) yesterday. had worship, then we split up for bible study in a smaller grp. it felt so much like cellgrp back at singapore! felt so at home i'm gg to attend it every fri. really thank God that i got introduced to this rj senior who suggested i try this out.
not to mention during the meeting yesterday they also jio-ed me to go for ocf easter camp. its similar to church camp (and i'm told the outsourced speaker's gd)!! moreover, i'll be meeting xiuhua there cos shes gg too! what a small world. and it also means that i wun be suffering too badly from unable-to-go-for-occ-church-camp withdrawal symptoms that much too i guess :) btw, tjow if u need help for publicity.. u noe who to beep :) i'm sure i could still do poster designing or offer a few brainchilds from over here ;p
oh yar! n the ecg's coming over to visit me in july!! its more than confirmed. i cant cant cant wait!! we get to fulfil our long awaited backpacking trip. tho i'll hardly b backpacking and will hav to assume the role of a tourguide. hope i do a gd job :)
