I just came back from FOCUS church camp... The weather was so darn cold and it was raining 1/2 the time... My body was in shock and didnt heal it.. I kept getting better, and then falling sick again.. a very irritating perpetual cycle... but i will be well =)
Anyway, dispite being sick and not having my voice, i thought the camp was great...
(yes i had sore throat, flu and slight feveron the 1st day. No voice = no talking nonsense! imagine how depressed i was! sigh... i was so sad... haihhhhh...)
I have never studied a chapter in a bible in such great detail before... (at times i think it was overkill) but i think it really makes things so clear.. and so... undeniable..
I never realise i didnt know so much.. at least not for certain.. what i knew i took for granted that it was all i needed to know... I guess it was so wishy washy... Luckily nobody ask me much about Christianity.. and that i often try not to discuss topics as such either.. :p
Anyway, it was a 4 day camp, and since it WAS during easter... so the main topic was on the ressurection of Jesus Christ.. as a long old moldy christian, this topic was not really aluring to me.. i mean to me, it has always been, He died for our sins, rose again. That was it. Never questioning more to this. Never really searching for proof or accusations against it either.
But im glad i went to camp. How it shed light on things... Why did he have to die AND rise? what is the significance? What does it matter? so many answers to questions i never knew i had.. so in that sense, it was good..
Eh sorry for boreing u to death.. here are some pictures i took with my awesome (aka shit) camera (aka cameraPHONE)... there are no pictures of me because asking people to take picture for me using my camera would be an insult to their skills and also rather embarassing because the picture WILL turn out shit.. Once ppl put up pictures on facebook, i will steal them and post them here for my beloved few readers, as i always do =).. see how much i love u guys! Miss u guys... allot.. haih..

Pictures in camp, again, because of unexperience uploading, in a totally wrong order.
I think i was sitting here in the morning at 7.. cloud.. moon.. some children's spiderweb thing.. (which unsurprisingly, aluring to the older crowd... heck i climbed up the instant i saw it!...and came down the moment i felt abit unconfortable with the FREAKIN cold wind and random stares by passerbys.)Oh and whoever can guess what that (light) green thing "behind/inside" or "bottom right of" the web (in the pic) is, i shall treat him/her dinner when i come back.. hahahaha... YES DINNER! NO MORE E COOKIES! :p
Clouds, as seen, move. I was just ... admiring the scenery.. this was about 25mins after the shot above..
At a high place, the beach and forest and the sea.
Much further down... the side shot of the same coast... On a different day of course..
I actually like this shot allot.. clouds leading somewhere and seemingly endless forest....jpg)
.jpg)
Thick clouds, thick forest.
And we're back at this shot.
And finally, where the sea and the sky merges.All scenery are much more beautiful in real life tho. My cameraPHONE do them no justice.But heck, ull live =p.
What could you possibly offer that the One who created all this would want? Now, why would He offer YOU anything?
ps- to those who wonder what 1st year medical school is like. We love our labcoats.


And... we have assignments.What is the hardest part of medical school?
Getting in.
pps- the reason why where are so many scenic shots above is because... i did allot of thinking...(and i was sick! what else to do but to look at things?) Maybe one day you should slow down, stop. cease ur busy activities. and think. Why am i doing what i am doing? think of a proper answer. Then continue.. =)
