RED- sign me up!

Sorry just watched trailer 2 for a film called “RED” starring Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman and John Malcovitz all in the price of one ticket! All the above are ex assassins for CIA who all live a quiet life. That is, until one day which an uber badass assassin tries to kill die-hard BW. Since his identity has been compromised, he reassembles his old team in a last effort to survive

In Three Days...

It seems really quickly passed. How I wish I have another three months to spend in this comfort zone. In three days, I will be returning to the place where I will do nothing besides going to classes, attending events and meetings, making international friends, and working a part-time job - a totally good-boy-life.

God has been really merciful to me this summer. I will not forget the good times I had in this place. Now I understand why everyone in St. Cloud looks forward to summer so much.

Life just move on no matter how hard I try to how it back. I wish time could stop for a moment so I could spend it with the person I missed most right now.

One year...or two, I am not so sure. What I am sure of is that I will not be back by next summer. I will most likely have to job hunt after graduation. That leads me to no chance for returning within the year.

I realized I have become dependent again. I refrained from making my own decisions, taking care of my daily routines, and simply living by others. I used to enjoy living alone when I am in St. Cloud. Since the beginning of the summer, I realized that I prefer staying with friends and family.

This makes it even harder to part right now.

Yes, with the advancement of networking technology, virtue meetings are no issue. I still feel there's a lack in that. Even on MSN video conference, I feel sometimes that I am speaking to the screen, not the person in the chatter box.

But I promise to live strong. This is the road I've chosen and I want to make the best out of it. I want to be an example for the younger ones, showing that nothing is impossible to a willing heart. And by the grace of God I can survive these years.

One phrase that I learn this summer: The Earth is round.

Whichever direction we may be venturing into now may lead us to a same destination. There must be a day we will line-cross and meet one another again.

In this three days, I am preparing myself physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually for the departure.

I will fly on the 8th August (Sunday), 2:20pm, KLIA. Hope to see you guys there!

Cheers~!

Last Camp

This will be the last camp before I can sleep over in the church premise for a BB camp for soon. It was the 1st KL Juniors Leadership Camp that was held from Friday till Sunday. Thanks to our very own Captain and the First Lady, this camp was made possible.

The Boys did enjoy themselves very much in this camp. As an assigned mentor, I bonded with a few Junior leaders. I also taught a session on upfront speaking. Overall, I enjoyed sharing my bits and pieces with the younger generation; it is how I feel I can "payback" to 1st KL for its training upon me.

Also, having had the final presentations taken place during the camp, I am coming to the final sprint with the Gold Award candidates. It was not as simple as thought to just prepare the Boys for their application to this national award. I believe there was none in 1st KL history that 12 Boys applying for this award all at once. Nonetheless, it was a good experience and I would volunteer to take up similar task if given the chance in the future.

After camp break, I went for a K session with my fellow brothers. It's been long since we last shouted our lungs out in the K room like no body's business. It was worth the sore throat.

I look forward to nothing but just a more fruitful week ahead. Cheers!
