THE CRAPPER SPEAKS
Monday, May 08, 2006
*___* I'm seeing stars. Sleepy, tired, ready to go into hibernation mode.
Who says we can't skip classes? The whole gang of us did; Sharon, Alvin, Jerrome, Elaine, Heng Yu & myself. We headed back to my house after breakfast. Had a round or two of DotA there. Sharon and Alvin were supposed to learn! Had impromptu-worship. After that, Elaine & Heng Yu went to "study" for their UTs while Sharon & I went to practise for CG worship. Alvin & Jerrome basically sat in through the entire practice; Alvin was adding to the quality of the worship while Jerrome sat in the background being, well, the background. Went for lunch at Westmall before heading back to school.
Sharing what is good, the good news. Went along with Alvin, Jovin, Jerrome, Wei Jian & Martin for the invitation to "I.D. Theft". The whole experience ROCKED! Though I was originally apprehensive, feeling out of place, I put in much effort and the conversations soon came fast and easy. Was encouraged by the whole experience!
Leading a Care Group isn't a walk in the park. It's a walk in God's park. I must keep reminding myself of that fact. That He's in control, and everything I do I should consult Him. Had a discussion with Nel and Sharon on the direction of RP2. Being a new care leader myself, there were burning issues which I raised up in order to better understand the situation. Took off with Jasmine, Elaine & Heng Yu to meet their friend from NP's ministry. (my bad, I forgot the name).
My weakness is in people-to-people communication. Grrr. I took it as a great opportunity to interact. Wasn't good nor bad. Basically sat staring at them eating, reminding myself of the purpose of my fast. Drilling in principles! After a "short" stroll around Westmall, we headed towards the bus interchange.
I saw that old lady again, the one selling tissue paper. Never could remain unaffected by that sight. She's so old yet she still works. Bought a stack of tissue paper from her. Met Stephen & Ernest; they too were buying a stack of tissue paper from her. Turns out they were heading toward another brother, Tobias' house. Led them there since they were unfamiliar to the place. Once again, my skewered sense of direction caused us much trouble going round and round the neighbourhood finding the right block... Headed home straight after that.
So even though I skipped class, the day was pretty eventful.
Yah.
