Train of thoughts!

So yesterday was Saturday and Saturday means it is the day I go to church! So, apparently I didn't get up very early, I only woke up at about 12pm. Then I ate and bath then I'm off for the day! Guess who I saw while I'm at the MRT station? RACHEL! I was pretty suprised because I left house early for my water baptism bible study class, didn't expect myself to see anybody I know. So anyway, we chatted a little and she was suppose to do her reading, her holiday homework. But end up we just talk! :x Cannot help it! So she went for her usher training and I went for my bible study. I thought I won't know anyone but guess who I saw again? Huimin! Hahaha, and I realise that I have company for the lesson! So after the lesson I went and queue up with jq then Anvis came along! (: we were like the first in the queue and we got A6! Not bad, I would say! Hahaha! Took a few pics with the Kratos people from CAMP UNItE! and had service.

We had Pastor Kevin Gerald and he talked about the Forces That Form You Future. It was a service that made me go "true story bro" and "ohhhhhyeahhhhh...." (as in I realise a particular thing). He talked about how the things that happen to us, be it the past or now, might not be God's plan. It is a result of a path we choose. And also that the things that happen everyday is because of a seed that is planted some time ago. I would also say that the things that you are doing now and the things that are happening now is because of a decision you made in the past. I'm studying in Early Childhood Education because I choose to try my luck and sign up for the course. And as much as I want that particular desired outcome, I must first plant the right seed. It's like it's impossible to want to be an early childhood educator when I go into Business IT. Okay, not exactly impossible, but it would be more troublesome.

Then Pastor Kevin Gerald asked us a few questions.

He asked, how different would my life be if..

  • My seed sown were different?
  • My beliefs were different?
  • My relationships were different?
  • My habits were different?
  • My dreams were different?
  • My thoughts were different?
  • My feelings were different?
  • My personal values were different?
  • My words were different?
Honestly, I thought about it. If all these were different, I would totally be another person already. The seed that I sow in people, in my homework. (okay maybe not really homework, but school work) Especially for the students who are still in secondary school, the seeds that you sow are like the time you spent revising your work and reading your text over and over again. The next one, belief, this one caused the major change. For me, if I've not joined CHC then I would not be where I am today. I found people who I can really look up to, people that really care and love me, helped me and talked to me when I'm feeling down. It was also a place where I can really be myself and go crazy for any reason. All this, because we believed in the same God, we have the same vision and we go with the same flow. I have no idea how would my life be if I didn't go church, really. 

If my relationships were different.. hmm, I would not be so strong. Emotionally. It is because of all the tough relationships that I have with people that make me stronger, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? (: However, I do hope the relationship at home would have a little change. If my habits were different, I would have a lot of close friends in school. I remember last time in secondary school, I hated staying in school after lesson was over, I would be the first to go home. Actually now I still do that, I won't be the last to reach, but I will definitely be the first to leave. I can't wait to go home, I don't know why. It's like I want to go back home and nua, lie down. Lazy, I guess! This is one bad habit that I have! I never liked going out after school or going out late at night. Hahaha, what comments to you have about this? Next, if my dreams were different, I wouldn't have studied in a private school. Definitely my dream is to be an educator. But if other dreams, like going to Paris and all that, well I think it's coming up! I'm going to Switzerland at the end of the year, close enough to Paris.

If my thoughts were different, I don't know. I've became a slightly more negative person than I used to be. I have this negative mindset sometimes. Not as positive and as happy as before, but still, I'm gonna try to go back to who I was before. Next, if my feelings were different, it would be woah. I mean feeling for people. This is the thing that will make a huge different. If I felt more for certain people, if I felt less for certain people. My entire life would be upside down. Personal Values.. I definitely have one. That is respect. I see respect very very importantly. I honestly haven't thought of this one. Okay, the last one. If my words were different, this is the beginning of all the thing that I am today. The words I speak to people. Nobody can underestimate the power of words to build or crash someone. The power of words, it is SO STRONG. However, people always say that actions speaks louder than words, I sometimes think that both are equally powerful. 

Finally, there's this quote that I must quote from the service yesterday by Pastor Kevin Gerald.
Just because someone is good to you, doesn't mean that they are good for you.
 This sentence is SO TRUE. I CANT AGREE MUCH MORE TO IT. the people around you, the friends and the people you choose to be around makes a big difference in your life, because most of the time, the people you spend the most time with are those that influence you. He also said that your thought are like trains, they lead you to somewhere, to where you are now. That's why I must make myself to have a positive mindset again, to change my thoughts so that I will end up somewhere good. Because a negative mindset will bring me to somewhere negative while a positive mindset will bring me somewhere positive! and i believe in that! :D

Anyway, after service we went to T3. With cg. Memories with N421! ahhhh.. i feel old now. Hahaha. And jiayong treated us ice cream during fellowship! Thanks much, my blog fan! Hahaha! :P we went back and the bus journey was simply.. scary. Really. I was telling whoever that i was texting that I was super scared. Then guess what? I fell asleep on the bus! LOL. When I woke up we were near home already, thank God! The bus driver was speeding like mad.. Hahaha. and Elisha was with us so he walked us home! ^^ It's like the good N349 days! Hahaha, okay now i feel REALLY old. It has been a good 4 years in church and many more to come! (: While walking home, there were a lot of stars in the sky, i was wonderstruck. Really :O first time i see so many stars in the sky on Singapore! it was awesome. I slept early and guess what? I woke up late today.

I woke up at the phone call of Jiayong. Hahaha. As usual :/ He guessed I couldn't wake up so he called my house phone! :x hahaha, he made the right choice. But anyway, he told me that the last person who reach will have to treat breakfast but then I was the second to reach -.- LOL! So we went on with our Frisbee practice and i thought i saw people from Dancefactory dancing. hahaha. the weather was hott... :/ almost dying. I shall blog about Frisbee soon, like next week. I will upload all the pics together with the pic of the actual prelims. :D
