Bull Run, We also run...

Well, ok... we didn't really run. We walked briskly. Anyway, was really an interesting event that got all of us acquainted with AMK's heartland! We visited AMK hub and all... my first time really roaming around AMK even though it's a stone's throw haaa...

It was kinda like a cell thing but we - Raymond, Clement & myself - formed another group with new people but think we had pretty good group dynamics so all went well! They divided us all into groups & packed us all into buses which brought us to (& from) our destinations - AMK & TPY. HuiFang!! You should have been with us!!! Haha! Anyway...

There were about 5 tasks with the first, grocery shopping! Then we had to decipher a picture taken from (wethink) AMK central playground. On a whole it was fun! Came back for supper & a time of fellowship! Here are the photos (thanks to efficient GuoXing!)

Oh! Got the Hillsong's 'Extravagant Worship' book by Darlene Zschech from Jon! Thanks Jon (if you're reading this! =)) He actually gave it to me! How nice right! Haha!

Taking half of Monday off... The morning off that is. Going out with Qing to check out the winding down GSS a last time before it's over.

apologies for the picture... Don't know why it's not straight up when I uploaded it straight up... hmm... anyway...

My colleague, Shona, that's her with her soon to be born baby Trina, showed me a brochure sent by SSTI & Monash Uni concerning a degree in Social Work for VWO staff. Was thinking of taking it up part-time... then again i'll really have to pray for funding. Maybe I'll postpone the thought to the 6th intake in 2009 & just take up SSTI courses for a diploma first? Hmm...

Also just found out from my boss - pam's cousin btw! small world! - that there's a new part-time guy coming to help me when Shona's gone @ PT. Think I've really gotta start learning how to better manage carehut on my own so that I'll be just as good a teacher as Shona & Aunty Fongmin to the new guy haha! Anyway, not really looking forward to Shona leaving... Just when I made a good friend she's going sighs... but still can't wait to see little Trina in person instead of watching her kick within her mother. =)

Lots of things to do the nxt few weeks... more on the personal side actually. Thinking of what to do for Shona before she goes. Think God has been great in allowing me to meet different people working in the social work line... Like today my Host I/C was this lady working in MCYS with Youths so talked with her more about social work & all... Then in my group for the Bull run event, there's another lady working in MCYS in the family side! Divine appointments! Haha! Ya... Praise God!

Another week's gone, another week to come.
