unmanageable journey?

It is a saturday, came to church in the morning to be relief teacher for Form 2 science, a lil sore throat after that, had lunch, prac for teenz P&W - guided Xi Zhe, helped lead pre-service prayer, guide Xi Zhe during PnW, sat behind with CG for sermon, lead CG, talked a while, encouraged n challenged Xi Zhe, talk to potential drummers, enthusiastic to learn & serve in church, tell them what to practice... accompany sis prac driving ard church, go buy dinner, come back quickly prac for night service, eat, play for night service, sermon, talk, go home...

swiftly like a dream, sometimes can't recall what went by.

but the pre-service is great, for me la, cos really experienced God, for someone like me who doesn't go for camp or mission trip cos of exam, i normally try to squeeze as much as possible from normal services.


richard called during prac (bad timing), said he's looking for drum teacher for his music school... .. sigh. go schumann then mr. zheng will ask the same thing too, well, at least he gave discount for the things i bought from him :P


Thinking of exposure in work & drums in sydney, or at least melbourne. Serve in hillsong church.. hmm... But also thought of studying part-time drum course in London or L.A. while working as an accountant or finance professional, study from the legendary Joe Porcaro @ LA Music Academy. would be nice...
Or work in london first then request for a transfer to LA or Boston?

Asked parents whether can backpack alone after this june exam, take train to Thailand, sightsee and travel my way into Myanmar, then take plane home. Plan kena rejected immediately, they scared i kena rob or gone missing/dead, lol. They suggested whether want to go goldcoast or melbourne instead, nah, if wanna go there then i rather wait until i get my degree and ACCA at the end of the year.

"A man plans his course, but God determines his steps..."
You'll never know what lies ahead, I might just be in JB all my days, or won't even live to see tomorrow..


Nice to dream, when it's not far away and free. =)


now listening to this christian song by Mark Harris..

"I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams
And that faith gives you the courage
To dare to do great things
I'm here for you whatever this life brings
So let my love give you roots
And help you find your wings"


Will I really find my wings?




talked to some blogging dudes at elim b4 start of nite service, surprised that ah-leb reads the poetry blog.. let's see, woah, i've been blogging for more than 5 years.. Lao liao.

reminds me of romance in joshua camp, my camp mates are getting married this july, they met each other during joshua camp, not bad eh.. but they're the only ones i know of that end reasonably well together. Too many buried stories of those that got together during the 5-week camp, stayed together thereafter, traveling here n there, moved from one state to another just to be together, or travel 3-4 hours just to meet the girl or guy, and one couple even become full-time church staff together, but all ended terribly and are really hurt. saw some of them taking many months to recover, or left church..

that's why gets me all jittery when i heard another camper romance story..

haiz.. there's me again, sounded like some kill-joy sad bloke. wish that history wouldn't repeat itself.




ok, getting late, i shall rest.

Backpacking in Indochina's common. :) Maybe not Myanmar (difficult to get visa), but it's definitely cool in the other countries. Cambodia's lovely; was there for about a week with a friend.

'Nyways. All the best for your exams!
