On theolo 2008 ♥ 10:05 PM
For one, being a counselor is seriously not a easy task. It's involves heaps of energy, patience and love. I take it as a test from God. But I'm truly thankful to be able to help out for the 3 weeks because after I graduate from university, I don't think I will have another opportunity to take such a long break to serve God. Well, unless I quit my job or get retrenched. Thus, I am grabbing every chance to do some church work now:)
Students hard at work.
In between, I went out a little. And I will never give up anything for that dinner with my darling little brother. Had a very nice chat together:) And man, did we eat a lot.
And I got to know Emmy Lai better and I think we reach the level of tiredness that we giggle over something insignificant. I call that bonding session. Then Lisa dropped by to say hi.
Guess who else came? Theresa and Mellie.
En lin who was quiet became more lively over the 3 weeks after knowing us better.
I was bored waiting for Emmy Lai to pack. I took like 10 minutes and was done so I spent the rest of the time checking out my new camera. Oh, did I mention that my daddy got me a new camera? Panasonic Lumix FX38. And the most important thing is that it's PINK:):):)
