just got back from NTU students' union orientation camp. it was fabulously fun. made so many friends, had such a great time and accumulated so many happy memories which will stay with me. and i know in my heart the friendships that i forged during this very long 6 day camp will stay with me too. my OG was exceptionally enthusiastic. we had a great team of leaders and seniors, regina my GL, one senior was from tj so we bonded instantly. we were also so lucky to have 2 very on seniors who joined us (cos when they were freshies they were in M grp too) wanru (NTUSU exco member) and sherwe our camp's chief GL. that led to so much fun during games, campfire and everything else in between. we went sentosa too...the beach games were fun..got a nice tan.. =) many many couple-oriented games..but every one was on enough to do it. went clubbing at chinablack. though i hate the concept of clubbing, the people who are drunk, plus the smoke that gets in your hair.... i love the music and the dancing...and my OG!! my whole OG was on the dance floor...dancing and singing our lungs out. it seemed to take away everything that's on your mind. a little alcohol helped too... =) hee~ but i know my limits. i was conscious of my surroundings so i was safe. plus our dear seniors really took care of us...forming a circle around my OG on the dance floor so other people couldn't come into our 'social dance circle'. i was so thankful nothing big happened...other than a small disagreement concerning 2 drunk guys, and 2 guys from my OG passing out on the sidewalk of pacific plaza...SP night was an eye-opener..my first blind date ever... thankfully my SP (secret pal) turned out to be a nice guy...who paid for dinner and was a gentleman. i miss the camp... =)
 
today was just talking to shermaine about our camps...she went for NUSSU camp...and my other friend thought my camp sounded nicer...more fun and happening... =) haha~ anyway met my SHSS friends to watch brotherhood. very good movie!! i cried... go watch it...
 
today was my driving test and i passed!! =) happy happy...
 
song sung by clay for his summer tour across the US... very very nice song....
 
You Were There
by Avalon
 
I wonder how it must have felt
When David stood to face Goliath on a hill
I imagine that he shook with all his might
Until You took his hand, and held on tight
 
'Cause You were there, You were there
In the midst of danger's snare
You were there, You were there always
You were there when the hardest fight
Seemed so out of reach
Oh, You were there, You were always there
You were always there
 
So there he stood upon that hill
Abraham with knife in hand was poised to kill
But God in all his sovereignty had bigger plans
And just in time, You brought a lamb
 
'Cause You were there,You were there
In the midst of the unclear
You were there, you were there always
You were there when obedience
Seemed to not make sense
You were there, You were always there
You were always there
 
So haven't I learned that my ways
Aren't as high as Yours are
And You alone keep the universe
From crumbling into dust
You are God and though we would
Not have understood You
There You were
 
Hanging blameless on a cross
You would rather die than leave us in the dark
Every moment, every planned coincidence
Just all makes sense
With Your last breath
 
You were there, You were there
During darkest hour
You were there, You were there always
You were the Victor and the King
You were the power in David's swing
You were the calm in Abraham
You are the God who understands
You are the strength when we have none
You are the living, Holy one
You were, You are and You will always be
the Risen Lamb of God
 
You were, You are and You will always be
The Risen Lamb of God
