i feel a long post coming up, but i dont feel like typing it today.. too many distractions. but anyhow, i will do my best kay people :D and now its quite disturbing cuz abraham and nathaniel are spamming my msn along with audrey.

currently nathaniel said the word "mungen " and i asked. " whats mungen. and then..
abraham : yellow skin man
carey : BANANA !


okkay enough of this. lets talk about youth retreat.

missed me? i've been gone for four whole days.
okay i've been at retreat. it was a whopping experience cuz its like my first time. i mean, yah, cuz i just 13 this year right, but anyway, i learn like a lot of stuff from this 'camp'
especially from my bible study group.
wait, lets do this systematically:D

first day, me and aud had our luggage carried to the bus stop, painstakingly. then we saw hammy ( abraham ) and then the 54 came, and everyone but us got on the bus, see we have luggage leh. somemore abraham bring the trolley luggage.
then we tompang one cabby go church wheets !

okay then we got to church, and after we registered, and we saw our campers and found out that audrey and i weren't in the same group for ANY thing at all.
there was dorms, workshop, games, bible study but like none we were in the same.
then audrey was really emotional and sad lah. then later we went to play a game they organise, then lucky tio me and audrey same group, then we very kaixin. but the they said our group one extra person. then they asked audrey to go other group.
then audrey was very sad.
and she cried.
and being the extremely fragile person i am, i cried too.
that was because i saw her cry.
so we were all feeling down. until we felt beter :X
okay lah then things were okay. the kind peoples switched a little so that me and audrey were in the same group for bible study, which we spent a lot of time on lah. so i think that was quite nice of them.

okkay then every bible lesson was like, comprehension, quite easy and good to understand la. then learnt a lot of stuff from there. like how serene said that God loves even our enemies, and surprisingly that make me wanna like.. try at least, to not treat my 'enemy' so badly. like i really hate the nonsense out of him to death. but actually i know i dont hate him THAT much. just that im chao irritated and easily irked by this kind of people lah. so in this sense, God is teaching me patience. i know i have to brush up on that a lot. a whole lot.

so then times during meals was a blast of laughter and fun stuffs. because of my clique and nat and abraham. did u know that abraham is completely crazy :D
and nathaniel. because me make abraham do silly stuff and he does it like a joke and we all end up laughing like never before.

then our games group. woah, ownage :O
our ownage game group :
ME, cheryl nathaniel ella evangeline

and ONLY 5 PEOPLE NEHH! :DD and we own.
haha just kidding. cannot be so bhb. anyway the first day games was those nicenice games lah. and they had msges i think. so i think we had one human table soccer which i think we did not win, then we won some game which i cannot describe. then i actually forgot the first day games liao :O
then 2nd day , we had games lah.
frisbee, cap ball, soccer and reverse handball.
only did i realise i love defense :XX
buts its nice laahs. heheh.. okay so we owned in handball and frisbee. :D
and then the third day was water games :OO
OOH. the first game was so rah. soapy dog-and-bone! ee, was super uncomfortable. because i happened to slide around alot since i was attacking julia. it was so super difficult! ee. then i took a LOT of time to wash off which i actually didnt completely wash off at all. inthat sense, i was uncomfortable lah.
then we had water bomb baseball. where we had to throw water bombs at people as they run from base to base :D
then later we had this 'obstacle course ' then i never kena hit lah yay :D but the balloon was so hard to burst, somemore is back to back must push and burst. then cannot, so danny use siscors and pop it. scary

then ! THEN! the carpark game
its dodgeball.
and we had to dodge the stupid sponge. and then (hoooray) i was keep on the last one left. even though we lost lah. but it was so stressed out. both sides wan to throw at me sia. i know i got lucky a few times, butnot so long cuz i super blur haha. :D
and i burned off my feet so it still hurts.

and john foo had the sponge in my face.
ugh.
okay so i made a lot of new friends lah. like in my bible study group.
and also, people i never thhought i would ge to know more, like say, cheryl, sopia, yumin, peiying and a few others.

and then when it comes to msg, im really sorry to God that i had been sleepy and stomach-aching for the first two days so no notes were taken. thankfully, the speaker gave summaries of all he preached. then i began to copy notes, so i was satisfied with myself.
ahha,
then so i learnt how to be a better friend to people. some of which was to :
-be available for your friend
-be loving
-be like-minded
and others. mainly i can rmb because of how amanda, cheryl, evangeline and kinyip decorated me into some weird looking clown like newspaper cum salesman and warrior. so yeah, workshops were good. and i regret not tearing the white paper and throwing it away, because i know God would want me to. i'll try. i gotta.

okay then our games group was ownage during workshops too. there was this one where we had to build the tallest, strongest cellophane paper tower. so we stuck it onto the ceiling :DD
whee.
see we are smart.
okay actually kinyip gets credit :X

okay. so then last night there was prayer and praise, and zhiwen came in to sort of 'host' the thing. made us stand for like half and hour? some said his expression very exaggerated, but i suppose the like, drive and zeal for God is too strong. so can understand lahs.
yeah, and also, we prayed a lot.
and i learnt a lot about how to pray, with shermaine and debs.
yep, it was really good, because i never really knew the 'format' thing.
haha.

and today was so. okay lah. it was sad, because i really didnt want to end this and go home. its like being in church was being close to God and i can tell back in our normal lives it wont be so easy.

okay anyway we did the usuals, with the happy comical times with the guys. then later we had cleanup. cleaned the dorms and then my bible study group was assigned to girl toilets.
and nats group was assigned to guys toilets. and it turned out to be a good thing la.
because we made nat scrub our toilet for us.

me and jx to be exact. so we were bugging nat, and then he came in and hosed the place, along with us, -.- and then scrubbed all the black stuff out, and in the meantime, broke the scrubb with his powerful limb and so it was bent like crazy, wakkaa.
then we ladies sat on the sink to be sadistic and watch nat scrubb away like a cleaning auntie.
and then we took a picture for proof. nat suggested it btw. and its not here yet, but i'll get it soon yep :DD

okay so anyway last night and this morning we played grounders-marcopolo integrated, at the playground with :
-audrey
-me
-jiahui
-sam
-christina
-nicole
-nat
-wilfred
-abraham
and im not sure if andrew played yet but anyway.
then played till super sweaty and hot. phew.

then now im feeling its hard to obey God as it has been in camp. cuz now i have parents around me.
my mom just nagged at me. and i was so tempted to answer back something i shouldnt but i just sat facing the com and panted like a dog.
not on purpose of course. i couldnt take it.
then i wanted her to get out of the room so that i could blog in peace but she sat there like it was her massage chair and i was like grunting and moaning and panting like some freak.
okay
im quite tired.
this post is extremely long i realise:D extreeeeemely.
just sleepy, and im going to keep up my QT . at least i must try. or else i would have gone to camp for nought. im going to do it now.


and i realised after what serene said, this whole long post has no vulgarity in it. and she als said that crap was not a good word. so i'll refrain from it too. because it kind of is a substitute for badder words.
anyway right, im going to try an stop using bad words from now on. occasionally i will slip of tongue, please slap me if i do.
jk.
just tell me. okay?
appreciated :! :DD
okay im off to QTQT ~
