Busy Busy Week...
i'm sorry that I didn't blog in a long time this week.. its been really very hectic for me.. assignments and mid-semester exam and all that.. anyway I'll share what I can remember and what happened over the week.. =)
Mid week was just busy busy... was rushing for assignments that had to be handed in.. and also had to study for mid-semester as well... wednesday, after settling the comp3804 project plan that had to be handed in, i went to norman's house for cell.. but cos the weather is like really cold cos its been drizzling... was supposed to have a game of touch but didn't... was supposed to meet Lung and the rest at Sunnybank for dinner, but it was kinda far so we didn't feel like going there... so we didn't have cell!! hahaha.. left 3 of us in the house, Norman, Mun and myself and so we went over to Serene's house for dinner! she's so nice.. she cooked mee suah and bee hoon so we just slacked there, watched simpsons and talked nonsense throughout... of course having the girls around was a refreshing change.. michelle being noisy as usual..
thursday was tiring throughout and studied til like 2am for my mid-semester on friday morning.. the funny thing is this... the mid-semester exam was so unprofessionally conducted man!!! well first of all, I sure didn't expect that many people taking this subject... cos most of the time the lecture is only 3/4 full, and that's with all the seats in between people... for the exam the ENTIRE lecture theatre was full... its amazing where all these people come from... then the paper was handed out and we were still talking... i mean everybody's sitting next to each other loh! and when we got the paper, we still can like look through the thing, talk a bit.. hahahaha.. AND THE PAPER IS LIKE 80% SIMILAR TO THE PAST YEAR PAPER!!! you could practically see the answers of the guys on ur left and right and front as well... anyways it was easier than expected, so good.. =) got 4 mistakes... yeah they finished marking by that night and the results were out online.. amazing right?!
anyways friday night went to Emerge Conference 04, the young adults conference hosted by BCC... Christine Caine from Hillsongs was the conference speaker.. she's amazing man!! She got so much energy and dynamics... really inspiring us to live with PASSION, which was the topic of the conference... to move us up to the next level...
then Sat was also in church the whole day for the conference, learnt a lot.. need to read up on the material to refresh myself though.. then at night the service was just so cool!! OH and I forgot to mention, on Friday night, there were like a whole lot of people jumping at the front of stage, until the basement below was actually shaking and the lights below were just bouncing as well... like the floor is about to give way man!! hahaha... anyways I did the dance for Soldier for the conference again... that was fun.. but the smoke machine was really suffocating.. i mean you can't see a thing man.. hahahaha...
and today sunday.. i played for BCC West, Jindalee today.. it was an experience i must say.. well its a small congregation west of Brisbane... today was like about 20over people? yeah but the thing I like about BCC is its culture of excellence, no matter how big or how small things seem to be, like even with 20ppl, everybody still put in their best to the Lord, to have quality... well its probably like the softest I've ever played, cos can't play the kit loud or i'll drown everybody else out.. so was really quiet.. so good practise of skill control.. =)
but the few days really drained me out and I'm so tired... its been a long day.. i'm going back to sleep... =) though tomorrow is a holiday here.. yes labour day... but i still got to go back to school for meetings and all that, so yeah got to go...will blog again when I have the time.. =) gdnite ppl!!!
