We'll face this

The earth will not stop revolving, no matter what. So, get up, go on.

Ever since i leave raffles hall when year one ended for me, events after events filled my schedule totally.
First was the taiwan trip i went with my block friends-just the 6 of us, girls, without tour, on our own. It was a release from all the stress and busy life in Singapore!

Great bubble tea in Taiwan!


Then i came back Singapore for 2 weeks of handball training before going off for church camp at KL. A great refreshing empowering session i ever had. It was one of the few times where God really came and spoke to me, touched me and renewed me, in and out. :)

After coming back from church camp, i had another 2 weeks of handball training before setting off to Taiwan, again, for my handball training and competition! It was all about independence and dependence. Independent in a foreign land, without church for 16 days. Dependent on my only confidante, supporter and counsellor, Him alone.

We even went to "Guess Guess Guess", famous taiwan variety show by jacky wu

The taiwan team was a really great host! They brought us to good places to shop, eat and sing! We had fun playing around with each other, training together in the cold indoor court although the weather outside reaches more than 35 degrees, gossiping till late nights and exchanged jerseys for memory sake. I really miss those times in Taiwan, the people there, the food, the fun places and the late nights. It was even more assuring when i realised some of the Taiwan girls are Christians! :)

Now that i'm back in Singapore, it's time to get use to life here. The hustle and bustle life, the many commitments to consider and never ending tasks to do. With my new youth cell, i'm beginning to learn adapting to new environment fast. It's time handball comes to a pause in my life and odac is soon to an end. Besides handball, i would say that NUS odac has not failed to provide me with fun and great experiences in many adventures i've gone through. Great peeps in the committee and committed people, sorry for leaving the comm for a while for my handball competition. Thank God i made it for Race 6 and Desaru cycling trip so that at least i can contribute some help for odac. Desaru cycling is really fun! Made great friends, many pro cyclist and a seriously pro blader who bladed through the 100km rough and uneven terrains while we were all cycling! Salute! 11 out of 14 of the exco were there and we kinda had a mini gathering. Glad to have my passion for outdoor activities back! :)

More photos when my friends upload them! :)

A new stretch, a new start.
I commit them in your hands,
all over again.
May you come and take control,
may i not be weary.
For it is no longer i live,
but Christ who lives in me.
