Hello. Haha, here to revive this kind of dead blog lol. not that anyone visits anyway, but..yeahs xD
so..these two saturdays (last sat and today) have been going to Rendition, organised by Hope church. hmm. very funny, very exciting, and really touched me. from heart-stirring melodies to medleys of songs to unique musical creations to rock, each certainly brought back memories and reminded me of the life i have in Christ. The message and testimonies were great, too. I could relate to some of it. So...a big
THANK YOU to Cheng Zhen and Cynthia (ps if spell wrong. never knew how to spell your name..) for inviting me to it xD
so... what have i been doing for the week? calculating dates, AMC training, etcetc. Basically training up to be a human calculator. lolx.
Back to the saturdays. last saturday, hung out with a few people after the concert. it was fun. very fun. went to the park just across the road from JP. This saturday? even better. after lunch, went with them back for a treasure hunt game. haha..exciting and very nice. Groups of 4. We (grp i was in, which was cheng zhen's) made it to endpoint. JUST in time. and got first. wheeheehee! Group 1 got place 1.. LOL! Congrats to the other two groups who got prizes as well, and good job to those who finished everything =D. Doesn't matter if you're first or last, right?
After that, went out of the SMU building, and a street magician came up to us. he showed 2 tricks, the second of which left us DUMBFOUNDED. literally. The first was involving normal paperclips and a 10 dollar note which was borrowed from..yongli i think. He proceded to put 2 paper clips on the note. and when the two ends of the note were pulled, the two paperclips dropped on the floor.. linked together. second trick, and its really good. he asked us to pick a card..we did and all of us had a look. 5 of clubs. red back. okay, good. the magician took back the card. Then he shuffled, asked what our card was, and spread the cards face down. There was one blue backed card, and it was...5 of clubs!! Then, he put the blue card on the floor and ask one of the girls to step on it. he started cutting the deck, and asked me to stop whenever i liked. so yeah. then he showed us the top card. 8 of spades. okay, good. then, he reached down and took the blue backed card. it became the 8 of spades! -open mouth-
Arcade with some of the guys, watched some of them play the dance game. and that was it. went home, and here i am to post! xD
Some lyrics of a song from Rendition i found very familiar and very meaningful:
Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here i am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
