I met up with the campus crusade ppl at potong pasir mrt station first at 2.15 pm. I didnt noe much ppl there at first... as there were very few Tp ppl. Den while waiting for the others..this china guy sat next to me...and he was quite a friendly guy..he spoke english with me..and for a china guy..his english was quite decent. We had a nice conversation...i couldn't speak chinese to him as my chinese was REALLY BAD! Well after a while the rest came..and we headed to St.Village... st.andrews is really a nice skool!!!... well we headed to one of the rooms in the st.village to check in... i was a bit lost at first...as i didnt noe anybody in that room except joelle.

Was quite tedious memorising the exact lines to say..and stuff like dat... well we practise a lot until... afternoon..we had our check out!..where the check out leaders will test us on our skills..was quite scary actually. My check out leader was christine, I like redid my chec out a few times a few times until i got all my steps rite...phew.. then it came to a point when i had to share a testimony.. i took this chance to share my looooong testimony from my ym camp experience with her..i actually summarise a lot...but its like i dunno why i always like sharing this testimony.

Had better sleep this time... had a great worship session..they played songs dat really meant a lot to me... Like the theme song here i am and another song amazed... the lyrics in this words really hit me..it was such a nice song..and i really had a good time worshiping God. After worship there were some other good tings dat happen before our street Evangelism but i won't go to the details abt it..bcoz joelle is still waitin for me to finished this entry...hmmm..okay...i was pretty nervous actually...we prayed a lot before doing this street E...ok now... each grps was posted to different areas... they were posted to seng kang, city hall, douby ghaut and for our grp! CHINATOWN!!! ArghHhhhhhhhhh! We all had lunch at chinatown before settin off. I partnered Bo chun... Bo chun really wanted and tried his best to guide me..but we jus couldnt find a right person to start off. We look left,right, up, down and alll we see are OLD ppl AUNTIES and UNCLES... we were lookin for single young ppl where it will be easy to talk to.. so we literally walked all over chinatown even until Clark quay... and we covered almost every area of china town lookin for the right spot... we den saw eileen and maggie..they were in the same situation as us..so we continue goin off together..we decided to stop and pray... bcoz we were goin in circles aimlessly..and we wasted like more than an hr oready... bo chun and i was startin to get desparate...we stop outside OG and like tried our first person... evryone jus walked past us..sayin they were busy..no time... and stuff like dat... he really tried his best to guide me... i really appreciate his helped. Well we den called eileen to find out where they were...and they say they manage to get one person surveyed oready... we den went to their direction outside the mrt station.. it was a better spot... but we onli left less than an hr...I took my first opportunity when i finally saw a young guy abt my age doin a survey there too.. i approached him..and we had a nice chat.. i cld relate to him..as he was my age! He was from Sp. He did the survey..but i didnt get the chance to share with him the "WYS" bk. Haizzz... i was like really wanted to put the skills i learnt into practise... but he said was busy...well... i den gained the confidence and started to approached many more single young guys..ok i cldnt find any more young ppl..they were all middle age Uncles and aunties... BO chun den got this guy..he was like sharin so muchn to this boy and he later found out that this boy didnt understandin english well... it really wasnt our day.. in the end i got to survey abt 4 guys...but none wanted to find out abt the bk..sigh.... i was actually a bit discourage... but well... This is God's plan... so we sld be grateful to where we are posted too...later we gathered back at china town mrt..and we shared our experience..and Lily got to share christ and they accepted to 2 person! WOW! Dat was actially quite encouraging to hear!
We den all met up back at st.village..and all the grps shared their experience... it was really encouragin to hear all the wonderful sharin the other ppl had. And i was really glad to hear them! In the end 13 lifes were saved! 39 got to hear the gospel! and many more rededicated their lifes.
Overall this camp really change my life more..i learned a lot from this camp and this is really GOd's calling for us to be here. This is like one of those camps dat i really got to learnt alot! There was like workshops after workshops..and all this really helped me a lot! I made many new friends from other polys....and this is smthing i will share with my friends! Praised the lord! =D
