Why Lightbulb?
Finally Gracie is back to blogging. Haven been blogging since October 17 2004(I still remember the date). Deleted my last blog because of some reasons..Don't wanna mention it--But I learnt something!
O levels are long over, enjoyed myself for a months plus before I found a job at Giant Bedok as retail staff. Lots of things happened ever since the day I stop blogging. First, Dare2Dream Team finally ran a camp! YahOo! The camp was a success, manage to touch a few hearts with my speech. Not only that, I have help some to forgive their mother and thought about what their parents have gone through just to bring them up to there they are now. Actually, I enjoyed seeing the members cry~HaaHaa~ Shows that my speech works! While giving a talk or speech, tone and body language matters.. also not to forget some music to go along with. For the camp, we camp over at Ah Bu's, Si Yun's, place and East Coast Park. 3 day 3 night camp, members learnt alot!
After the KeepHopeAlive's and Dare2Dream Team's members camp, I rested for a few days before I set off for another camp, the church youth camp. This time we combined the camp with Gula,Malaysia, youths. It was fun and for the first time, I actually shop! Gracie, I thought you don't like shopping? HeE~ But with the girls,hAha..Shop la!! Went to Melacca for the camp, on the first day, we actually walked like an hour to reach our hotel from the bus terminal!! Under the hot sun wor~Qiao Zhu lao shi's face was as red as tomato when we reach the hotel! The hotel we stayed in wasn't as bad as what I thought,nice!!
Oh ya~ I just recalled.. Know how I spend Christmas? At first, had BBQ at Eunice's place, then played games and countdown. At around past midnight, I went and met Lawrence. The both of us sat at DownTown East's mac before we went to the beach. We sat there, blow cold wind! Lawrence slept,he was tired,I was awake most of the time.. I watched him sleep~ Hee..
For New Year, again we "camp" at Eunice's place.Before midnight, me,Cheryl,Dyan(Dai An) and Normand cut up the bread for the Gan En Hui in church the next day. Believe it, I actually had a meeting on New Year Eve! You see, while I was on the back to Singapore from the Malaysia camp, Si Yun smsed me for a meeting the next day for a project. Well, we met, Zhen Hui,Adrial,Kenneth,Rod,Eric,Si Yun and me were there. We met up to discuss how the both teams can help the Tsunami victims. At first, those normal ideas came up, donate food,do packing all that. But deep in me and the rest,we wanted to do somthing different! Having the thought that we are a motivational group, I came up with an idea to get people to write their encouragements to the victims and rescuers! Our passion was burning strongly~ I arrange a meeting with EC to seek her advice and see how she can help. After the meeting, we change project's direction abit-- now, the project is handled by Rod, it's up and processing.
Lawrence's birthday was on saturday, 8th Jan. He had a BBQ party at East Coast, and I am the one who helped him book the pit. Had fun..ya~ Did some serious thinking also..
Now~ main topic. Why LIGHTBULB? Well, I was in church one day, when I was thinking of Dare2Dream's new name. Was turning the Bible, when I flip to the page about being the Light and Salt of the world, I came up with this idea-- Lightbulb. We have to be the light of the world and LIGHTBULB came to mind..Actually wanted to use it for team's name..but Rod says it's a bit kiddy.. Never mind, I'll use it for my blog then.
Oh~Working tomorrow... Legs are tired. Don't know what happen to Carmen today..suddenly blank out at work. Hope she's alright..
