Brain Dump
Tuesday, June 26, 2007
OK, time for a brain dump.
I know I haven't really updated with what I've been busy with this past month. So I'll try to keep it short and simple.
MTC YOUTH CAMP:
This was the 1st week of June. Think this year's camp was alot more fulfilling and easier to manage for me, especially since the numbers were reduced to a more comfortable size as compared to last camp. I was really glad to see how the church youths were stepping up to take their roles in the camp, and how they were focused on pleasing and glorifying God through the duties they had to carry out.
One thing that I learnt during the camp was to set aside time for myself to really reflect and pray. Once the day starts, I think most people would be too busy to even think about God. But I think during the camp, I realised that it was important to set aside time to talk to God and meet with him through prayer and reading of His word, cos I came to the understanding that my resources and strengths are limited, so I need to consciously ask God to help me and to give me sufficient strength and wisdom during the camp. Not to mention energy, to keep up with them. Heh.
NAVCAMP2007: JAILBREAK
One day after MTC youth camp ended, I had to prepare myself for Navcamp. This year's programme was much more different from last time. Although it was still experiential learning, they decided to make the entire camp an experience to be learnt from instead, and not just through "designated activities". It was so packed and hectic, that I fell sick the second day of the camp. Luckily, God gave me the strength to pull through for most of the camp, until the last day, when I had to leave early because of vertigo.
Being the second camp that I was helping out in, I felt more comfortable this time round, because I had a more definite role. However, I also had to watch that I wasnt being too overbearing or pushy. I was attached to advise a team, and I had to make sure that I wasn't overstepping my role.
TEMPEST
And finally, where I am now. For those of you who know Bras Basah Complex, there's a music shop called Swee Lee. And within Swee Lee, there's another space in there that's been set aside for sales of scores and music books. The place is called Tempest and that's where I'll be for most of this month.
For those of you who have nothing better to do, or who feel the desperate desire to come and see me at my workplace, my working hours are as follows: Mon to Thurs, 11am - 7.30pm. I'll be in the shop most of the time, so if you're in the area, do feel free to pop in for a bit. :)
OK, that's that for now! :)
