WINX CLUB for the win mann!

next, presenting to you all, our grp flag by the artistic ppl, including me DUHH :)

i told the grp, dont make it so fairy like cos our grp have both genders, make it gothic but still turned out quite feminine HAHA!! really proud of this, we have hidden talents ppl in our grp who refused to admit who they are hahaha

we have an encouragement board too!! its like writing letters or encouragement notes to ur grp members or to others from other teams hehe and this is ours :)

oh forgot to tell you guys that the camp was held at Salvation Army, and i met some of the Haven kids i helped out when i was out with PSA in the Sea Aquarium :)

stayed in apartment, shared bunk room with trina, joey and lynn

bunk buddy is trina hahaha, had devotion practice with her every night was really fruitful although we were really tempted to sleep

so as usual, ice breakers, games, ppl brought cards..

i wont really go into the games and all cos well, nothing much to emphasize, same like water games, cheers, teamwork, i really enjoyed the camp, i felt like as if i know everyone within a night
it was really fast for the night to end on the third night, thinking abt leading devotions every morning, encouraging teamwork in every way etc
oh yeah, we had a mini skid to be performed by everyone and i volunteered to be the narrator tgt with cyrus becos i want the team members to really get involved
time for me to like, not say SHINE but let the younger ppl be recognised

Winx Club cheer 2 for skid :

-felt happy that i led this hahaha and my grp followed

the night ended with a night walk, we were all led into like somewhere in the middle of a forest
and were told to walk back in the dark ALONE
at first, i was like so tired huh, can someone walk with me hahahaha
but den in the end, i was too tired to feel scared so... just walk lorh
but i realised when i walk back, i was covering my mouth while walking hahahah

so i bought sunflowers for her hahaha and i realised i visited her twice this year haha
first time was the day before i stepped into PSA, i have always made this promise to her
may sound dramatic but this covers alot of aspects of what hardships i face in life
i promised that "I WILL NOT GIVE UP ON LIFE"
God gave me a life thru her, now that she is not ard and being the daughter..
i do admire daughters who are close to their mum, its really a blessing but ok, i am not going to sound so emo over here right?
i meant, this kind of thing, i faced it, i accepted it and i moved on, as what i said, not giving up so easily
GAMBATTE~!

listen to message and one part talking abt forgiveness just struck me in a sense asking me do i have anyone who i havent or refuse to forgive till now, it got me reflecting and thinking abt it
