There and back again ^^

Finally! After several horrifying weeks of exams, I am finally free for three months and thus I have devoted myself to updating this blog.

And yes...this is right after church camp so I did what I said Oliver ^^

Church camp was cool! Thank you Iggy and the team who made it possible for us to go to the camp. It was really fun and had a very different kind of annointing. Who knows? It might be the wake up call our church needs to rise up to its namesake.

Ever wondered why our church is called Revival Centre? Well, aren't we supposed to be the centre of revival then? But anyways, before we tread into those deep waters, here are things I would have wanted to say but did not.

-----

Sorry people for not being very talkative at the tables or perhaps not being able to talk to everyone. Sigh...actually come to think about it. I get a sudden surge of fright and anxiety whenever someone approaches me... I have no idea why. Erm...so for all those of you who spoke to me about the blog in church... Heh... Sorry for suddenly like retreating into a shell. I grew like...suddenly extremely frightened and suddenly my brain will freeze up, not being able to respond coherently. (This mostly to Iggy...)

I wonder... what do people actually talk at tables. I mean...well...sometimes when I am at tables with John Reuben or Jeremy or maybe even Shawn (No offence guys. You were the first ones I could think of) I always wonder what to say. And it grows extremely awkward when... no one is saying anything. Like...isn't it kinda weird if I keep on asking bout school or college everytime we meet up? SIgh... I wonder what people ever say.

I REALLY WANT TO TALK TO YOU.... But I just don't know what to say... sigh sigh sigh...

Anyways, here's a really cool video I found for a sudden favourite band of mind. Casting Crowns! I have been listening to it through the exams and beginning to get addicted :p Don't worry. Not being emo. But think about how true this song is...



Lyrics
------
Is there anyone that fails
Is there anyone that falls
Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

Cause when I take a look around
Everybody seems so strong
I know they’ll soon discover
That I don’t belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything’s okay
If I make them all believe it, maybe I’ll believe it too
So with a painted grin, I play the part again
So everyone will see me the way that I see them

*Chorus*
Are we happy plastic people
Under shiny plastic steeples
With walls around our weakness
And smiles to hide our pain
But if the invitation’s open
To every heart that has been broken
Maybe then we close the curtain
On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who’s been there
Are there any hands to raise
Am I the only one who’s traded
In the altar for a stage

The performance is convincing
And we know every line by heart
Only when no one is watching
Can we really fall apart

But would it set me free
If I dared to let you see
The truth behind the person
That you imagine me to be

Would your arms be open
Or would you walk away
Would the love of Jesus
Be enough to make you stay

Chorus x2

Well if the invitation’s open
To every heart that has been broken
Maybe then we close the curtain
On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone that fails
Is there anyone that falls
Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

Father keep our eyes and hearts open onto you...
