- Sawadii Khrup -

I am such a lazy bum.



Hee I don't know why whenever I want to write something, when I get to the write post screen, I just don't feel like writing anymore.



Oh well, here I am after two days of Worship Retreat and Missionary training.



I'll get back to my subjects I wanted to tell after reviewing these past few days cos' they were super fun.



Lets begin with the retreat.



We had a 2 day 1 night retreat in church for the Worship Team where we stayed over night across the road at YMCA Orchard.



All the activities were quite fun and meaningful, but the night part was still the most hilarious.



After playing two rounds of polar bear in our room, then everyone disperesed cos it was already late into the night.



I still remember bunking with three other guys in a room with three beds only.



So this ultra tall 187cm Hwa Chong guy, a fellow peer from ACSI and I shared two beds.



And we sang a contemporary song before we slept. By Trademark.



The one that goes: "2 a.m. and the rain is falling..."



Peculiar thing was, it was really 2am.



And the rain was falling.



Heh



Then the next day during activities, I was running down a slightly muddy hill in my grip-less sneakers, slipped, and fell among rocks and mud.



And grazed my self in my right lower-shin pretty bad with lotsa mud all over the place.



The funny thing was, there was a group of Malays near by, and they were the ones that cared for me the most.



I mean sure, my fellow church members did ask after me, but the Malays had to rush over and check out my extent of injury theirselves before leaving me alone.



Wow... talk about social cohesion man..



Cool..



Anyway so after that I had to leave for YMOVE Missions training to Thailand.



I mean, we are going to Thailand mid-December, not then.



And we had A LOT OF FUN learning the Thai language.



WOW their language is really to melodious!!



You can practically sing every line and move your whole body to a tune!!!!



They have five syllables, unlike 4 for chinese, and lotsa other kinds of funny pronunciations.



Super duper cool, and furthermore, the men and women speak the same sentences differently!!



Heh.. well actually parts of sentences differently.



Yeah.



Did you know that 95% of Thailand is Buddhist??



Its like saying to be born in Thailand is to be Buddhist.



So sad right.



And ONLY 0.3% out of 60 MILLION people are christians!!!



SO PLEASE COME ON MISSION TRIPS TO EVANGELISE!!!!!



Man I really can't take the thought of so many ppl. dying without salvation.



Yeah..



So anyway I had two injections today.



One for influenza and the other for typhoid.



They don't hurt right now, but the doctor says its the second day that the pain really worsens.



Oh well I'm going to sleep now, and I'll tell you how it feels tomorrow.



If I'm not too lazy.. :D



So.. yeah gnite..
