Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

the concert was nice! haha.. the beginning wasn't that fantastic though, but i guess they all warmed up to it as time went by.. haha.. and i realized i really miss and love that lao niang alot.. was so excited to hear her sing solo haha..
the pentecost sequence. it was really nice to hear it this morning. solace in the midst of woe.
Holy Spirit, Lord of light,
from the clear celestial height
thy pure beaming radiance give
come, thou Father of the poor,
come with treasures which endure;
come, thou light of all that live
thou, of all consolers best,
thou, the soul's delightful guest,
dost refreshing peace bestow
thou in toil art comfort sweet,
pleasant coolness in the heat;
solace in the midst of woe
light immortal, light divine,
visit thou these hearts of thine,
and our inmost being fill
if thou take thy grace away,
nothing pure in man will stay;
all his good is turned to ill
heal our wounds, our strength renew;
on our dryness pour thy dew,
wash the stains of guilt away
bend the stubborn heart and will,
melt the frozen, warm the chill,
guide the steps that go astray
thou, on us who evermore
thee confess and thee adore,
with thy sevenfold gifts descend
give us comfort when we die,
give us life with thee on high,
give us joys that never end
amen. alleluia.

today was the last canvassing we had.. not v gd.. eh.. had some probs lah.. but it was still ok.. pray that we'll all be fine haha..
but its nice to just hang out with these ppl.. haha.. we had a shortage of gals today (in fact only me and le hia with.. 5 guys..).. i was with haojie again and we had a hard time.. but nvm haha.. we split up to sit down for lunch coz not enough seats.. and started talking abt.. evthg.. haha.. was sitting with yuan bin and edward.. i see them talking abt minds cafe so much until im so tempted to go lah! describing all the games and stuff.. highly recommended they say.. hey ppl we shld go some day!
let's just say its not v possible to maintain friendships that were forged on event-based, like swoc.. we could be having alot of fun talking all kinds of rubbish but.. yah.. this i can foresee le.. but im still v happy that they really made me feel belong.. if not this will just be plain torture lah.. haha..
while the past remains part of our lives, it doesn't have to determine our future.

hoho abt canvassing again hehe.. coz basically my life is filled with canvassing liao.. this time is another part of paya lebar and after lunch, kallang.. was split up frm minghui coz supposedly we two are quite zai so gilyn the flag ic wanted to separate us.. was grouped with haojie the swoc chair.. who.. apparently doesnt have the "grassroots aura" to get donations haha.. and with le hia too.. new combi, but just as fun too haha.. had fun teasing haojie.. haha.. as usual there were interesting encounters.. such as.. 3 dogs coming at us at one time (super glad a guy's with us this time..).. and.. breathing in all kinda things including sawdust and thinner and fixer and wad not.. some of them in air con rm somemore.. nearly suffocated in some, esp when we had to wait for the bosses.. i really wonder how the ppl manage to work in such places.. really diff walks of life and diff problems ppl have to face sia..
today wasnt so tiring one.. BUT. we walked the wrong way out of one industrial estate.. walked one BIG round.. end up at exactly the same place where we started out FIFTEEN minutes ago, just that we were across the road now.. great.. we nearly ended up at toa payoh i think.. when we were at kallang k.. faints.. so i think we walked for like.. 30min or more to the mrt station.. and we just went piong on the floor and haojie went to get drinks for us.. and those cold drinks were all we needed man..
but i just saw in the news just now that some *bloody idiotic* guys cheat ppl of money in the name of charity.. and it has to be NOW. great. so who's going to donate to us liao huh huh HUH?! kns lah.. we already have enough trouble trying to convince ppl that we're really getting money for the charities and that we've got nothing to do with nkf and now this. yoohooo swocs..
zoo outing tml wheeeeeeeeee
yesh joan dear we'll have our sushi buffet.. hehehe i DUN CARE WE'RE EATING SUSHI BUFFET THIS HOLIDAY. :D:D craving for sushi ever since duno when.. *sulks* haha

another day at canvassing.. it was a long day.. amk this time.. we did better than mon (yeah!), and i really had fun talking cock with them.. mon i just listened to their nonsense and it was amusing enough.. today i chipped in too.. wadeva they say is just hilarious lah.. coz its really total nonsense.. i guess it reminds me of how we're like with the zoo and gang.. as a subcommer i feel that they're a great main comm.. im glad i joined swoc:)
im glad they cancelled tml's canvassing.. coz canvassing is tiring.. haha.. but i got to see alot of stuff i doubt i'll ever get to see.. really diff industries sia.. and their workers.. lousy attitudes.. friendly ones.. the way they treat ppl.. the way they carry themselves.. hmmmm interesting.. i thought canvassing wld be boring like flag day.. but no.. there's always smth new.. like.. minghui and i being scared by a dog barking ferociously (it wasnt chained><) and immediately wished there was a guy with us.. haha..
got more canvassing next wk.. jiayou swocs!
withers away @ 11:57 pm
went for flag canvassing today at eunos industrial estate.. seriously i had no idea wad we were supposed to do before going there.. i was still having qualms, not knowing the ppl in my sub-comm.. wad's worse was that i over estimated the time i needed to reach there.. i was so tired i decided to slp and sit on the train all the way to changi and back.. and i was still 10min early.. but.. it was all for a good day.. the swocs are friendly and seriously funny and full of crap.. during lunch time, haojie was sitting beside me, and after eating we're just chilling and they were talking loads of nonsense.. we had quite a long lunch break, and when we were going to go off again, haojie sudd turned to me, stuck his hand out to shake hands and said "yeah hi, im haojie, wad's ur name" oh MAN we just seriously laughed our heads off can.. hahahha.. gilyn was like eh we talk for SO long alr and u dun even noe her name?? hahahaha.. damn funny lah..
industrial canvessing is bascially doing flag day in industrial estates.. u just go to every shop and ask for the boss to ask for donations.. some ignored us, some didnt give us a chance to speak, but some were nice too:) there was this pair of uncle and auntie who kept chatting with us.. in a mix of english chinese and hokkein.. about how we shld live life and some experiences they had with others wanting donations.. she even gave us drinks.. a v nice and friendly pair..
after we all completed the estate (it didnt take as long as expected), met up again at kfc to.. i duno haha.. talk cock hahaha.. its damn funny listening to the stuff they talk abt coz its so nonsense.. even on the way home.. haha.. it sure was tiring but we did have some money raised too:)
and i will give u rest.
