An eventful weekend

It was event filled weekend with lots of activities to do. Let's start off with last Thursday first where my long awaited law magazine is ready to be collected from the publisher. I just wanna thank God that it is finally done and that He's provided the finances to make the publishing possible eventhough we had to pay off the previous semester's debt off. A rough check of the magazine shows everything is in order and this means mass distribution would bring everything to a conclusion.

On the same Thursday, we celebrated Hamster Lerdie's birthday after CG. It was an eloborate plot to "kidnap" her and she really did not expect Rachelle to be involved in the plot..haha. Well, at the end of it all, Hamster managed to made her way to Ice Room where a massive crowd is waiting there. Lol..for a moment it looked as if some Datin is on her way to the place and even the waiters were standing in attention. We stayed there till the shopowner got desperate to close shop and we had to settled the bill quickly..haha.

We had to get up early the next day for Ops Gegar which was held at Methodist college this time. It's great to see a very big turn-out for the event with students from different universities and colleges coming together. It wasn't as air-conditioned as last years, but still there were lots of good lessons which can be gained from it. I think one of the most impactful activities was the one in the reading room where the act of the Bible being thrown on the floor shocked many who witness it. The lesson learnt in there is clear in that whenever we disregard God's word, metaphorically we also threw the Bible away into the dustbin. Indeed, it's a pondering point to consider and reflect upon. Haha..the funniest part during Ops Gegar was when we were asked to write one Malaysian Christian who had made an impact in the country and all of us wrote Bishop Ng. Ops Gegar closed at around 5pm and we returned back, feeling that we are "sedia" to receive the challenges that would be coming ahead.

The next day was filled with another activitiy and that was Reuben's MEC team building activity at Port Dickson. It was an adventurous trip which started off with an obstacle course first and I'm very pleased indeed to complete it all successfully with my Blue team! We then had telematches at the beach where we really got sunburnt to the max. It's interesting to see the small mini crabs and hermit crabs crawling over the sandy area during low tide. The treasure hunt was the most exhausting because we had to run uphill many times and I would say we got rewarded with a nice view of the sea from the lighthouse. The only thing wasted was that we couldn't stay up there long enough because it was too hot. Lol..I can't count the amount of drinks or ice-cream I actually bought because it was the weather is so hot that I had to constantly hydrate myself. I guess it is the ice-cream seller or drinkseller's windfall day with over 30 of us patronising their stall whenever we have a break.

Overall, I'm quite happy in getting occupied with the events eventhough I'm once again delayed in doing my revisions. Then this morning, I went to Seremban to collect the Siew Paus and Dominos for our fund-raising sales. Apparently we went too early there and we had to wait about 30 minutes plus or so before we could get our piping hot pizzas. Reuben and me ordered 1 regular pizza each and it was indeed shiok to finish up one whole pizza on our own!

Ahhhh...Anyways, I must really get down on the revision soon as time is running out with every second ticking by!
