Psalms 23:4

"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil. for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

I don't know if you're reading this, or if you will even read this, but I hope things will turn out alright for you. Have faith in Him, okay? Because He's always there, even when you think He's not. It's just a storm, and you're walking through it. You'll reach the other side; the storm will pass, sooner or later, none of us will know, but it will pass. I understand how you feel, I used to feel the exact same way. But there is no storm that will not pass.

And I pray that you'll know that there are others who worry about you. And that running away isn't the solution to anything, it only prolongs the problem. It tears me up inside to see you like this, you know? Cause you've never been like this before.

If anything, talk to people kay? People whom you're close to. It helped me. I hope it'll help you too.

FUSION WAS PURE OWNAGE.

Tampines Mall for lunch with Flora KaiJuan ChengYi and Stephanie, then went to ACS with the other church peoples, Sam was reading Seventeen on the bus. Hahahha. Getting tips on how to be a better girlfriend. LOL. And we were there after some huge storm, 3.30.

Got registered, blahblah, BOUGHT 3 ALBUMS FOR 45 BUCKS NIA. AND ALL THREE GOT AUTOGRAPHED BY PLANETSHAKERS! Yeah man I rock. But ZOMG I forgot to bring Pick It Up. -.- Limited edition somemore, then didn't get it autographed. Haiz. Sadcase.

Never mind, three albums is enough. :D

Went in, PLANETSHAKERS ROCKED. Lead Worship, then a sermon on death, about dying to unholiness and dying for things of God. The video was so touching. About this baby who has a sickness, and he wasn't expected to live, but he lived for 99 days, and how his dad dedicated his life story completely to God. I realise that I'm totally freaked out by the notion of death. Haiz. Anyway, not necessarily a bad thing.

Then sermon, where Pastor talked about his whole life story and how he died to the notion of his being unwanted and undeserving. Because we are all created by God, it shows how much God values us. God wants a relationship, not religiousity. Amen.

Then, dinner with Yi Ying, Kelyn, Sam, Lydia, Clarice, Kyle, Liang Jie. Western stall! The baked rice was quite good heh. And for some random reason Kyle pissed Clarice off, and yeah. Haha. Same old story. I saw Steve! His friend invited him lol.

Then back to the auditorium, there was a huge load of people waiting to get in. And after we got in, YMpact dancers! And Wesley dancers too. Haha. All the way guys :D Then Justin and Jon tried to get an autographed album by singing a PS song on stage, but they sadly failed. D: Still, great try peoples. And at least you got an auditioned Fusion poster! Yay. Haha. Then PLANETSHAKERS TOOK THE STAGE. I think I sweated more during the concert than during training. Hahhahaha. Sermon by Pastor Matt Fielder on what true believers do, HIS STYLE COMPLETELY OWNS. And his Donald Duck expression also owns.

John 12:1-10
1. True believers give extravagantly. "Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume"
2. True believers give up themselves radically. "She poured it on Jesus' feet and wiped his feet with her hair."
3. True believers bring a sweet smell into the place; they change the atmosphere of the place they are in. "And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume."
4. True believers expose religious hearts. "He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it."
5. True believers pave the way for the return of our Lord. "It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me."

Matt Fielder owns. Completely.

And then PlanetShakers took the stage once more! Finishing everything off with a total bang, man. Open Up The Gates, Free, Majesty, all the hits. Planetshakers FTW. I really hope you guys come back soon. And yeah, I was like soaked in my own sweat. Great place, great atmosphere, great people, great fellowship, great worship, just standing before the Lord and baring it all for Him in surrender to His greatness. Everyone raising their hands, everyone jumping to the glory of God. Quoting one of my non-Christian friends who was there, "I thought it was kinda cool that so many people congregated just for Him!" Really reveals how God is doing his work through Planetshakers and Fusion and these kind of events.

But with all these kind of events, at the end, there's really much more said than done. So yeah, let's get out there and give the "done" part some parity! :D :D :D

Pictures after the event! (I've got more during the event, even a couple of videos, but they'll come later)



Felicia's/Rachel's SG (With less people lol)



Rachel's/Felicia's/Jeslyn's SG! (With more people)



18yo's!



Felicia and Me yay.



Felicia Dinah LiangZhi Rachel Yuru!



And Rebekah and me. Whee.

That's all for now folks! I wish I could talk more about Fusion, but my memory really fails me. I hope I got all the main points up there. If anybody out there gets the chance, they really should go for this kind of event. Opens up your eyes to a whole new reality.

Cheers!

Argh this sucks.

I can't get the stupid jump technique right.

I can't do more than 20-or-so meters with 9 bounds.

I'm so drop dead tired.

My dad doesn't have the money to get me new spikes.

So even if I decide between Asics and Nike I probably won't get it.

And I think I'm such a bloody loner.

Cause I feel so out of place.

And it doesn't help that people look like they're freaked by me.

Ugh.

I don't care.

I'll train harder than anyone.

And I will do well for Nats.

Just hope that I don't screw up my friendships along the way.

Someone teach me how to be a people person man.

I think I need it.

Hah.

MUST DO WELL UGH.

Somemore tests coming up next week. Sheesh.

Oh well, looking forward to training on Monday.

And I hope it'll (the other thing I was talking about) be better by then. Cause it feels like crap when someone does what they did.

Ta.

Hmm. I don't care, I wanna make the school team for Nats. :D Possibly possible. Heh.

But training is damn fun nowadays. Partially thanks to Syafiq's randomness.

You're so gay, you don't even like boys.

Dots?

And I'm burning 3 bucks every training. Cause 100 Plus is ripping my wallet in two. Haiz.

Oh well. Long jump for Nats!

And yeah, I DON'T KNOW WHICH SPIKE TO BUY.

Cyber Jump Beijing or... LOL okay I can't remember any other of the names.

Pffft.

Training tomorrow, hopefully we'll be doing the real jumps.

Today was so sian man. Math English CLE Physics Chinese.

Boring. Except for CHINESE. We had some crazy dissection of "The Necklace". Haha.

Ciao, my mom's being retarded again. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO POST A BLOG ENTRY?

That was not a trick question. But I guess it's normal for no-lifer moms who don't know anything that their son does (that they feel should be done) except for piano, chinese, and homework. And sleep/eat.

As if doing this wastes a lot of my time. A diary is so valuable okay. And so is church. So don't stop me, you're just screwing my life.

Bye. [:

And help me choose which spikes to buy!

Tuesday, February 10, 2009

Yay. Joined jumps yesterday. It's quite fun [:

And I might just be able to make it into the team! Yeahhh man. Heh.

Although I still wanna do sprints. And hurdles, if I have the time. :D

But for now, jumps will be fun. And training too.

Even if I come home and the next day my whole body is dead tired and my muscles feel like stone.

But oh well.

It's worth it.

The feeling you get when your teammates are around you and just kidding with each other.

The sense of accomplishment when Mr. Yeo or Mr. Lim say I've done something right.

The sensation of wind rushing through my hair, flowing past me.

The never-ending pursuit of self-improvement and learning and skills.

The friends that you make throughout the whole experience.

Track for life.
