Yesterday we had our NEA reunion dinner. Although i guess many others might be blogging about is as well, I will still blog about it, because it TOTALLY rock.
We only had sausages, crab meat and fishballs. with my CG being the only one with fried rice and 7 bottles of drinks. Nothing extravagent i guess. What really touched me was people really enjoyed themselves. The look on the faces everywhere in the function room says it all. Seeing my guys showing love to one another by cooking for each other, leaving food on my plate when i went out to buy fried rice for them, celebrating the birthday of a jc sister, writing affirmations for each other, and embracing me towards the end. Sometimes, being the CL of one of the most loving care group makes you feel just so blessed and loved whenever we gather together.
Seeing a bunch of 17 and 18 yr old growing young men coming together to practice hard and actively participating in a short skit that reeks of total lameness, which makes all of us appear retarded touches me as well. Atlas, we won the NEA cny presentation. 'we are the champions, we are the champions' -croons jon tay. It just further reminded me how much potential these group of guys have, most of them were the same people that were in the team that won the Northeast presentation. The least i can do, is to provide a tribute to each and everyone of my guys. I'm a biased guy, I shall start with my sheeps. Haha.
Clement - Thanks for helping out in setting up the steamboats and tables, can see that you have grown ever since christmas, being more committed to God and even involved in the care group. As a friend, as a sheperd, it's so enouraging to see growth in you. Continue to seek God and we will see a care group size of 7 in YJ soon.
Si Han - Si Han, you bring enthuiasm to the care group with your active nature. You add strength to the group. Thanks for serving the rest food and drinks. YJ is there for you to claim ownership of, take it okay! haha.
Nicholas - Thanks for directing the drama. Indeed, we won again. It's not just about winning, but the group really bonded. Seeing the new believers earnestly partipating in the skit was truly encouraging. Take care of Guo Feng and Thaddy well and let's leave our marks all over NY and Aj. =)
Gerrard - The mere presence of you at the function room encourages me. Despite the problems and difficulties you face, you still fight for this chance to come and join us for the reunion dinner. I believed you have enjoyed yourself, remember the challenge I put out when we were eating 'ham-sheng', let's really see a CG in SR soon and very soon.
Alvin - Thank God for you dude. Saw how you rushed down after pe in your sexy shorts and tight fit shirt. haha. You add humour to the group, and thanks for being our care group,s 'handy man.' Even though you are in MI now, I believe you can stil impact those around you. Jia You!
Rayson - Haha, a good solo performance for the skit! You add strength to the group in more ways than one. In terms of finance especially. Thanks for being so submissive during the reunion dinner, adhering to my requests to do this or do that. Remember what i told you earlier in the week, God will bless SR, start lusting and hungering after those j1 dudes, the breakthrough will be when the first convert come in, and we will be flooded by srjcians.
Jansen - You truly add depth to the group. You neutralise my sometimes over senguine-ness and crappiness. Can see that you really touched your sheeps lives. Remember when were eating the 'ham-sheng' you said about Cal becoming a sheperd. I think it's truly possible, you have done it with Alvin. Let's really see a care group established in AJ soon okay.
Junliang - You too, neutralise me. Haha, 3 of us complement each other. Anyway, thanks for providing the camera yesterday, and adding the fun element in the group but doing various things(embracing gi gi etc.) You played a part in making the people feel satisfied yesterday. Thanks.
Martin - Thanks for being the unit cameraman, lending us your steamboat, helping to set up the equipments and buying of the drinks. Remember what i told you on the bus okay, you can do it!
And to Jed, Calvin and Thaddeus who miss out on the reunion for some reason or another, you guys miss out alot man! haha. Never mind, i will do another one for you guys on friday. haha
Anyway, we took many pictures, and I took alot of them with my sheperd! haha. Please do not be deceived by the traumatised look on his face, he was definitely enjoying himself. LOL.
The photos are posted seperately, cause I do not know how to post them together.. haha

Your Dominant Intelligence is Interpersonal Intelligence |
You shine in your ability to realate to and understand others.
Good at seeing others' points of view, you get how people think and feel.
You have an uncanny ability to sense true feelings, intentions, and motivations.
A natural born leader, you are great at teaching and mediating conflict.
You would make a good counselor, salesperson, politician, or business person.

I'm here to let everybody know that after thinking long and hard, and after some evaluation, i realised im a cool dude. Just kidding!
I realised that i did not spend the money my parents gave me to buy cny clothes prudently. it's like totally not value for money? They gave me 300 hundred bucks.. 300! haha.. here goes:
I spent 70 dollars on this short sleeve casual billabong shirt. I thought it looked terrific, but there was only one problem. It was BLACK with some graffati and some cool designs on it. (Grandma wasnt happy.)
I spend another 60 on this polo tee from billabong. Again, fantastic design, its cream colour with some white, brown and red stripes. However this time, i realise that I do not look good in it.
I spend another 30 bucks on this army kinda berms. I like it personally, but quite hard to match it with the shirts i currently posess.
40 bucks was spent on this pair of ecko long pants, which i didn't even bother to try, i just find some size that is 2 sizes bigger than my waistline and i just left. At this point in time, you people out there must have realise how impatient I am with shopping.
Lastly, i spend another 30 bucks on this fairly tight fit black polo tee. Which i realise wasn't really that nice after all.
All in all, i spent 230 on clothes that I do not like or do not suit me!
Someone, call the fashion police please!!!

Hey dudes out there. Pardon my previous post okay.
Anyway, recently I realise that I'm quite a heartless person. Okay wait, depending on which aspect are you talking about. haha. Here is one such example:
(during lunch break today)
Friend: Jon, want to go seat with the retainees?
Me: No.(notice the firm full stop)
Friend: Wa..why not?
Me: Retained=different classes. Isn't it about time we all move on and sit seperately.
Friend: Quite mean, but you make sense.
haha...
Anyway, one thing i realise about malay food.
Usually, they will make the food sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo spicy right, even if it doesn't taste good, you won't taste it, cause it is just too spicy. Some amazing statistics to entertain you readers out there. I dispose my stool in school on the average of 6 times a week. This happened after i entered into Yishun Junior College, I never had this problem when i was in St Andrews. What does this mean? You decide. haha.

I pretend that I'm glad you went away
These four walls closing more every day
And I'm dying inside
And nobody knows it but me
Like a clown I put on a show
The pain is real even if nobody knows
And I'm crying inside
And nobody knows it but me
Why didn't I say the things I needed to say
How could I let my angel get away
Now my world is just a-tumblin' down
I can say it so clearly but you're nowhere around
The nights are lonely the days are so sad and
I just keep thinking about the love that we had
And I'm missing you
And nobody knows it but me
I carry a smile when I'm broken in two
And I'm nobody without someone like you
I'm trembling inside
And nobody knows it but me (yeah)
I lie awake, it's a quarter past three
I'd scream out at night if I thought you'd hear me
Yeah, my heart is calling you
And nobody knows it but me
How blue can I get?
You could ask my heart
But like a jigsaw puzzle it's been torn all apart
A million words couldn't say just how I feel
A million years from now you know I'll be loving you still
The nights are lonely the days are so sad and
I just keep thinking about the love that we had
And I'm missing you .
And nobody knows it but me
PS: This post was inspired by a strong surge of nostalgia.
