Weekend! (rara rox!)
Ok, that weekend was cool/fun/the usual. I watched Cheetah Girls 3, it was sooo good! Except that Aqua's so called
romance in India was totally lame...Like, her boyfriend was a maha rajah or something?! C'mon! But whatever. Where was I? Oh yea, my weekend, it was fun! Well, honestly, it was ok. Nothing great...
MegaLife Camp is coming! This sunday! I thought it would seem like years before it started. YAY! So many people I know are going, it's gonna rock! Can't wait!
Also, on friday I went to 2 factories with the homeschoolers. It was so cool! There was this salmon factory, then we went to an ice-cream sale. Natalie also went, and we both
chilled in the freezer with all the salmon stuff, it was super cold! Like, 18 below! Just 0 is a great time for snow and ice, but that place, man! Everybody was sliding everywhere because the floor had a thin layer of ice on it. COOL! :D
I thought we were going into the ice-cream factory. But we were just going to a sale it was having. Not only does that factory have ice-cream but desserts, bread & soup! And you could taste everything. We ended up buying some tubs of ice-cream, it was g-o-o-d!
What did you do last week?

Sound Day!
Even though it was Tuesday it totally felt like Sunday. I woke up, changed and rushed to Natalie's house. I was talking to small Ben on the phone when I'd reached her house. At first, I had no idea why'd he'd wanted me to call him, then it just turned out he wanted to talk about worship stuff for that day...
After we'd reached church we ended up feeling like sleeping. It was so peaceful there! Just a few of the people who were serving were there. I almost fell asleep after I'd curled up against the wall. Piying even brought a pillow! I would've borrowed it, if we hadn't had to start worship practice.
After that, helped out with some random stuff...Then played with the rest outside of the Victory Chapel. It was soooo hilarious! Then helped out with the treasure hunt, it was a good day. ;D
Hugs & Kisses!

Not a good day...
Ok, it was actually a pretty good day. Till after worship practice. Went to Victory Chapel, that's where the craziness began:
Abby, Eileen & Piying were busy pumping ballons. Started playing with the ball, Natalie & I were tossing it around. Then small Ben asked if he could play. Started tossing the ball around, and forgot why. But small Ben ran away with the ball, I think because we were chasing him around. Hid his gee-tar and his shoes. Then, decided to play a prank on the band.
We turned out the lights in Victory Chapel. Well, to cut a long story short, we hid behind the sound booth. Only to have Ben scare us out of our minds. We didn't even know he was there! It was he we were mainly planning on scaring...

that day was soooo not cool...
Weekend! (airport & MHS training)
Ok, because of yesterday's exhuasting day, this post will be long. Even though I want this to be short, so I can fall asleep before school.
haha-not. So here's what happened to saturday:
Woke up, walked to Natalie's house. Then to Nicole's house. Then to chior practice at church. Was ok, except there were only a few kids there, like less than half. And Natalie was leading, because Kenneth couldn't make it.
(You did great Nat!) And then went to lunch, which was ok. Nothing really fun, it was more weird. Because while Natalie was getting a drink I was staring into space and completly zoning out. AKA staring at the ceiling, being bored. And all of a sudden small Ben said I looked like the Mona Lisa, which I don't by the way. And then Chee Yan, small Ben & Kenneth Han started arguing about it. Right in front of me, I might add. So -as you might have guessed- I was pretty freaked out, I didn't know what they were doing. Wether they were complimenting me or insulting me or what, it was weird...
In between MegaLife and lunch me & Natalie did nothing. Luckily Ryan & small Ben were there, they kept us awake. And Joshua kinda looks like Ferb but whatever...
MegaLife was ok, the normal. A huge room full of hyper, high & crazy teenagers. So, was normal.
Sunday (one of my most busiest Sundays ever):
Woke up, walked to Natalie's house. Then to Nicole's, and from there to church. Rara-ed for the first service, then went to help out with the Upper Primary game. Went to breakfast, and met Dorathea upstairs. Then went downstairs to play 'Would You Dare?' Which is truth or dare mixed with would you rather. Totally humiliated Ryan, with all the dares we gave him. LOL!
Went to the airport with the cell. Jason -cell member- was going to US for 4 years. Yup, totally spam sms-ed him after he got through the gate. Totally funny, yet sad. Then ran back to church for My Hope Singapore trainging. It was interesting, yet the first part boring. This was my weekend...
Totally tired,
Amberlie-J
tired...
Today, the usual...
Ok, so today a usual, normal day. Piano lesson, school & then chinese tution. At least today is the last day of chinese tution for this week. But still, my chinese tutor is coming in about 40 minutes. Not ecstatic, yet not totally fed up as usual. So, ya. My day in 2 words is:
Normal and boring. Bored out of my mind,
Amberlie-J
Cause an empty room can be so loud
Its too many tears to drown them out
So hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
When you love someone
And they break your heart
don’t give up on love
Have faith, restart
Just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
When it falls apart
And your feeling lost
All your hope is gone
don’t forget to hold on, hold on
Weekend! (a walk on the beach, a friend & God)
The weekend was fun, yet tiring as usual. Everything mostly happened on Sunday, so I'll write about that:
Reached church right on time. And it was the opening of Victory Chapel. It was really fun, even Dorathea rara-ed for the first service. During the first service I kept doing the actions wrong and stuff, but in the end I guess everything was fine. Victory Chapel is so cool! It's like a hotel or something! Then went to the atrium and played 'Would You Dare?', which is a mix of truth or dare and would you rather. It's really fun! But, man, the dares we thought up! It was crazy!!!
So, after second service we celebrated Darren's/Benedict's birthdays. Abby & Piying had a can of whipped cream and
tried to spray it on Darren's hair. But it turned out to be melted, so it just dribbled all over his head. We had been praying and Darren jumped and ran like crazy. It was hilarious!
Lunch was ok I guess. I did't feel like eating, after helping the cell with something I felt kind of sick. So I just went along with the rest to Fish & Co, Express. But I only ate some fries. Benton & Chee Yan were like having a Q & A session or something. But it was interesting anyway. Stayed there for quite a while, just hung out with everyone. Went to the grass patch and did, well...nothing really.
I didn't want to go home and neither did Abby. So we went with Kenneth to the beach. Walking and talking was what me & Abby did the whole time. But not usual talking, just about out lives that's all. It was really cool, like I've only talked to someone like that once in my life. I have a feeling it's gonna be more often now. I finally understand some stuff I've been confused about for a while. Anyway, it was a cool, relaxing & nice day.
In God's love and mine,
Amberlie-J

Recording in a STUDIO! (again)
Hello fellow bloggers/blog-hoppers. We're going back to the studio again. For Natalie's song, '
Fight of Faith', it's gonnc ROCK! Natalie has such a great voice! I totally think Natalie will be a great lead singer. She has a strong voice, with a base like sound. I also love the song '
Fight of Faith', I'm glad Natalie is singing that song. Those two things mixed together will be b-e-a-utiful!!!!
Anyway, Natalie is coming over around 10.45. Because her house will have no electricity. I totally understand that, when that happened at my house last year my whole family went out of the house till night time. It would have been fun to do that though, we could use flashlights, candles and stuff. I think it would be fun!
So, there you go. All my excitment and joy packed into this entry, I'm stil restless though. I feel like jumping up and down or something...
Jumping here and there!
Amberlie-J
I will run, I will soar. On eagle's wings, as I wait on you Lord. My strength is restored. Fix my eyes, on you Jesus, as I run this race. Help me fight, this fight of faith...
Recording, in a STUDIO
I can't believe I had so much fun. Today Natalie, Nicole, Kenneth & I went to record I love you sweet Jesus for the album. It was soooo fun! I kept messing up. I sound like a 6 year old girl! UGH! I sound so horrible!
So, to cut a long story short, I don't like my voice. It's weak, lame and thin. So I just blend in completly, which I kind of like. I don't really like to stand out anyway. Though everyone always compliments me, I don't really believe them. I still feel like I'm not a good singer. And, well...I'm even thinking about quiting the worship team. I don't know why, I just don't feel like I belong. But, enough emo-ing! Happy Amberlie back up!
K, recording is very fun! It was interesting. I felt professional, even though my voice totally lacked in everything. Anyway, tomorrow is school. So, ya. My parents went to India today. So sent them off to the airport. Then came home and wrote this. AKA my day.
Kisses!

Dark Era 8
I didn't answer Katie's questions, because I didn't know the answers. How
did I know what to draw? How did I get almost everything about 'him' absolutly right? Well, it wasn't exactly the same, but just at a glance at the first picture you could tell it was the same guy. I kept flipping through the picture, always focusing on the guy.
I was getting to the last of the 5 pictures, and I gasped when I saw it. There was a backview of a cross, and you could tell everyone around it was crying. 'Is it the guy on that cross?', I thought. I turned to Katie, who had been looking over shoulder and asked, "Who is that guy? What's 'his' name?"
After a few seconds of silence I asked my last question, "That's 'him' on the cross right?" Katie nodded, her eyes still glued to the picture. "Katie? Say something! Why?", I was feeling scared, and I didn't know why. "Well, the guy you've been drawing is Jesus. And...yea, He's the man on the cross." Katie said. Then after taking one last look at the picture, she closed the Book. "Yea, Faith. He died,He died for us, and He's in Heaven now." "So He died? And that's it? That's all? I've been drawing some dead guy?" I didn't get it. Katie laughed and explained, "No, I mean, yes. Yes, He died. But during His life He'd helped a lot of people, and, well...maybe I should start from the beginning."
When Katie had finished telling me the story of Jesus I just sat there stunned. He died, for my sins. And He wanted to give me the chance to accept His offer of love, joy and faith. What could I say to that? I didn't deserve it, that's for sure. How could I accept something that I didn't deserve? Wait, and did I really believe He died rose up from the grave, and is in Heaven? What was I supposed to say????

BBQ! & Swimming
First of all,
HAPPY (belated) B'DAY RYAN/UNCLE MIKE!!!. Ok, now...the BBQ was soooo fun! It was like, the best day of my life it was so much fun! Here's what happened:
Went to Tanah Merah mrt and met Kenneth & Benton there. At first we went out the wrong exit, so when we went out the
right one, we had to run for the 14 bus. Next, we got out at the wrong stop, and had to walk for 5(?) minutes to get to Bayshaw. During that time, the guys kept talking about how they'd lost the money for Ryan's b'day gift. And told me they'd gotten him guitar strings (God has a commandment about lying you know guys? XD).
Then got to Bayshaw condo, changed and jumped in the pool. Where I got a splashing welcome, along with dunking and water fights. When I got there the guys were playing some kind of sick wedgie game, or something. So -of course- I avoided looking/being on that side of the pool. Yeap, it was pretty weird at first...
Then me, Piying & Abby wanted to go to suana -only after the guys had gone- and then we went. Talked for a long time, and when we got out we realized we'd been there for about 1 hour! Also, we realized we didn't do it right. We didn't pour on the water. It was cool hanging with you!:) Then we ate some BBQ. And melted some marshmallows/chocolate to make a cake-like-thing for the b'day people. But in the end we also ate it, it was soooo good! We were like jumping up and down and squealing because it was so good!
After we'd eaten we dived back in the pool. It was more fun than before dinner, I think because there were more people. For some reason, small Ben & me kept splashing each other and bothering each other. He went and ruffled up my hair, so I did the same to him. Then throughout the swim session we kept doing that. Played three blind mice, but I had to always dive away from the catcher. Because small Ben kept splashing me and dunking me, and I did so back. So we had to keep diving away quickly from the catcher. Was totally fun! I love hanging out with the SuperLife people!!!!
Toodles!

wonder what'll happen this weekend? something new always happens...normally.
Monday
Yesterday I went out with my family. First we went to Simei to get my phone fixed, it's on the fritz again. And I just had it in the shop last month! Anyway, the middle button is not working, which means I couldn't do
anything.
I'm totally sad without my precious little phone. Luckily, we have a back-up phone. Which was my old phone, the small flip one. It's soooo cute! But it's also soooo old. The buttons are also really hard to press...oh well. Better that than nothing.
Then went to Chinatown and got stuff for my parents trip back to India. They're gonna give gifts since it'll be so close to Christmas. It was fun, until it started raining.
I kept looking at all the fans. I saw this black one with orange on it. It was so eye-catching! It had a picture of Africa or something, with elephants and stuff. My mom also had a fan collection, I remember looking at them all the time. I really wanna start a fan collection, I find them super pretty/beautiful.
Then when we got home dad started cooking Indian food. It was
really nice! He even made pavlova, which is like meringue but softer. Like marshmallow. Hence, I had a good day.
Weekend! (red lobster)
Today everybody asked how I got my sunburn. It was pretty boring today. In my free time me & Dorathea worked on the card. Then Small Ben joined in and totally saved the day. After we all stuck something on my accident.
As usual, hanged with Nicole, Natalie, Dorathea & Small Ben. Very normal.
ahhhh. sooooooooooo tired...Labels: Weekend
