Sports day 2009!

You guys never know what i went thru when planning this combined sports day. i went thru an emotional reflux. Starting from enthusiasm, anxious, stress..disappointed and then excited again. like a roller coaster ride sia.
Enthusiam - it's supposed to b a combined church sports day. apparently, i was very last min organising this n plus it is a bad timing(may), thus the church i approached(mpcc) can't join us due to most of the youth having exams. At first the venue supposed to be NP but i guess Gwen n weili too busy so ended up no news regards to the booking of venue. I forgot who suggest James Cook n i tot y not?? moreover can invite the students to join us! a win-win situation=)

stress- 1 week before the actual day, james cook authority haven't reply our request. i started to panick. what if there is no venue n alot people did turn up? how am i supposed to answer to them? moreover james cook students can't join us cuz they having exam also. wat a date for outdoor activity. =(
Excited- I was very excited when i received sms on thursday? that james cook authority agreed to lend us their venue for sports day!! weee~~~



well from below photos u guys may think it was a bright n sunny saturday afternoon but u r wrong. 1 hr before i left home. i was experiencing thunderstorm. i almost had problem getting out of house. i started having panic attack again. what if the rain continues?? i did not have any wet weather activity!! horrible me..then i quickly set myself praying n set the rest of YF ppl praying also. And God is really faithful, by the time my bus reached 141, there is no sign of rain at all. i got so emotional that i almost cried. Lord u hear us, n u answer our prayer.

so enough of babbling, time to talk about the actual thing..below is qiqi n kairen, my street soccer empire..
the 2 jia xin ppl who joined us. so sorry abt mis com. sms qilei's old hp number so the rest of jia xin ppl were not informed abt this event. haiz..ivan u dun hate me for missing a soccer session ba hahaha.
started to brief the basic ground rules..
lim han brought his 3 basketball wannabes!! James, my fav kid joined us cuz he's so bored at 141 while waiting for his mum to finish her fellowship. seeing him so bored, i invited him to joined us, when he heard there will b basketball, his eyes lit up! so cute!
let's get the ball rolling!!

after starting not long, ppl complained they cannot differentiate their group members, so some one suggested the idea of tucking in. btw there's no such words as tucking in shirt. it's tucking shirt.
everybody looked so 'tut' lol.

jian liang, r u putting up one of those famous trick act in soccer match where 'i got kicked' n hope that a referee will give kairen a yellow card? but well kairen is the referee n a player. =x


jian liang is more like doing kung fu than soccer-ing.

sexy butt. guess whose..
James, facing the giant.


samuel flew up!!
seng joined us halfway thru..
didn't know lim han can fly too. haha.

kevin, you foul ah, by grabbing n preventing james from playing. lol.


what is seng n yun doing?? dancing??

next we had basketball..qiwei immediately joined in..
i got participated. but no one take pic for mee=( anyway i love this pic which captured the moment qiwei did her stunt! so cool. i also want fly in the air!!





see james in action, quite cool isn't it? dun look down on his size k? he scored 3 goals hor.

ah seng pose is forever hilarious.
james' defense is being captured. so cool!

they played till quite late..from 4 something until 7 something. some more lim han got the cheek to tell me play til the security guard chase us =.=
after an awesome game, we had dinner at hawker centre.



lim han smells.
well, my feedback about this sports day is, if u guys happen to go down one day n play soccer let say, some other james cook students come watch, perhaps u guys can b friendly enough by pausing the game n asking them to join in. That's how we get to know new frens n bring them to know more about christ n have fellowship with us=)
confessions*sometimes i feel dat im dying..that im holding on to this ministry myself..is there anybody who care to share the workload with me..like start to lead so i can step down already? ever since shaomei seldom see her in church, weili is busy with CCA my 2 helpers are gone, i felt so handicapped. anyway enough fo my ranting...


2nd half of the post not relevant to sports day but it's about sunday school teacher retreat. it's my first time attending n i must said i had alot fun n insights in this ministry.
Edmund, the pianist.
the 2 gamemasters.
we had some ice breakers..are u familiar with the taiwanese game that made ppl react to the correct word when a 成语is being read. i must admit i quite retard in reacting. luckily i not leader.


mother hen ivan n all the chickens.


even the kids joined in though they dunno what it's all about.



when everyone laugh sheepishly, it means they recognize the wrong words. cuz we chinese teachers leh. let's keep it within ourselves n not exposed to the kids k? hahaha.
and the winning team!!

i promised by friday i get the chiang kam trip part 2 done. =x pray for me. haha.
