VBS 2010: Cosmic Quest

Sunday, November 28, 2010



Yeap, that's the theme for this year's Vacation Bible School at Cheras Baptist Church.

And it is commencing in approximately T minus 78 hours!

We have been doing VBS for the past several years and this year is no different.
But this year IS very different because we're coming up with our own materials. Yes, we're not relying on Lifeway this time, this is an independent project. And we're gonna rock it for sure :D!

My station is going to be 'Wonderful Works'. We're going to be expanding the children's knowledge on the wonderful works of God... the galaxy, nature and the human body. It's going to blow their minds (hopefully).

Pray for us (including all of the other helpers) that we may be fully ready to face VBS!

Vacation Bible School '09 - Boomerang Express

Tuesday, December 8, 2009

It was that time of the year again!
VBS!!

Shan Berg did a great job leading the 'props crew' (us) this year. We made his blood pressure increase :D!







I was a helper at the G'day Cafe! If I were a kid, I would love my station because there's snacks! For kids, it was hassle-free, and full of fun.
For us, it was our worst nightmare.
Lol, kidding! Exaggerating :P
We stayed up till 3AM to make the cheesy vegemite scrolls. It was so.. tiring. But knowing that I'm doing it for the kids and (indirectly) for the Lord, it kept me going. I was so cranky (crank that soulja boy! *put for fun*) and active. Seriously, I work better when I'm cranky.. more productive.

SNACKS

Day 1 - Cheesy Vegemite Scrolls

What is it: Bread/puffs rolled and spread with cheese&vegemite/milo/nutella/honey.

Day 2 - Kangaroo Pouches

What is it: Pita breads with grated cucumbers and carrots, mayonnaise and hot dogs.

Day 3 - Ants on a Log (Failed!), Fruit popsicles/Mash Potatoes

Why fail? Because the celeries were too small. Too small to spread anything inside the centre :(
What is it: Celeries, dipped into condiments such as nutella, mayonnaise or ? (yeah i forgot, sorry) and also after that dipped into sprinkles/cereal/? (forgot this too).

Sry for forgetting everything so quick. I'm so sick right now, can't even think straight.

The cutest little girl :D


Hershey's Chocolate Syrup!


Haha coincidentally Sarah & I both had moles on our arm, so we drew something on it xD

New Christmas layout & icons

Wednesday, November 25, 2009

Christmas is just around the corner :pandaGeli_18: So fast right?
God, please let my PMR results be a good Christmas present from You!

So I made this layout :) I don't like the snow in the banner, but it's a WHITE CHRISTMAS theme. Hence, the snow.
When it comes to my blog layout and Photoshop-related things, I must achieve perfection! Well, near to perfect is good too.
How's the snow-falling-down thing :D? I hope it's nice, and not irritating anyone. If it is, do tell me by leaving a msg in the tagboard/comment.

I think I'm going to make another one 3 weeks later. A dark one so that you can see the snow clearly. And put some Christmas jazz in the blog

AHHH so busy doing preparations for VBS. This year like so slumber like that :pandaGeli_02: But I'm so happy we did a lot :D Thanks Shan Berg for fetching me to church and back. And buying food for us. You're awesome!
I shall upload the pics after VBS or when VBS starts.

HAHA thank God Phoebe gave me the .avi version of Glee, if not, it would take me forever to make this:

I was on a Photoshop craze again~ I felt productive.
Personally, I think I make better icons when there are humans (subjects) in the picture ;)

Hmmm time has certainly slipped away.
And just in a blink of an eye, PMR results will be out, and the holidays will be over.

Had a great church thanksgiving dinner! The American food included turkey, pumpkin pie (I don't like pumpkin) and cookies! The cookies were heavenly!
And it was then that I realized that food with texture like oats and pumpkin, make me puke.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTOPHER & STAN!

It was my bro's & Stan's burfday this week :D! They had a nice cake, and Christopher got a bingo set.



I gave him a card and a Christian bookmark!


Am I a great sister or what :mGelak:

Choral Worship Festival Concert.

Saturday, July 18, 2009

Today we had a small rehearsal @ FBC. I actually thought that I was pretty unprepared for the event. I am still not too sure about the starting notes of some songs etc.. But when I heard the choir today, we sounded quite prepared (to me)! Thank God for all the other altos who sang really loud :)!

Do you wanna come and us sing? You don't see Carmen Chan sing everyday you know.



But most importantly, you get to hear beautiful gospel music by the WHOLE choir! And the soloists too of course. There'll be a wonderful sermon too.

For more info:

So be there, or be square 8)

Oh, I'll reply tags another time. Sorry.

Missing camp..

Sunday, June 7, 2009

PICTURE HEAVY!


Church camp was great :D! I mean.. everything was great. The beach, the fellowship, the message, the food!

The journey there was longer than I thought and we kinda got lost because the entrance was so narrow and hidden. Then we had lunch and went to our dorms to put our stuff. We stayed in dorm W3 with Carmen Phuah, Shannon, Abby, Janice, Queenie, Phoebe, Stephanie, Ivy, Adrienne, Le Hong and Meity (Le Hong's maid). Le Hong was super duper cute!


And this is Lé Hong (it's pronounced as leh hong). Very inside joke!


Game time with Uncle Jacky (game-master) was my one of my favourite activities there. We had to create animal sounds, eat sour plums and blow and burst balloons for the Icebreakers. But that was only 'icebreakers'. We also had 'Mega-Relays'. Sweet tartar sauce, I have never seen the adults so active! Running here, running there.


A few of the challenges were playing that wire game and guess Christian English songs by listening to Mrs. Leong sing (a game similar to that TVB variety show where they ask foreigners to sing Canto songs). We also had to put on stockings and gloves on 5 teammates without damaging them, eat sour plums (again!) and wrap a teammate with newspaper! Great fun.


Beach time was nice too. I FINALLY got to ride a banana boat. Pictures are not with me atm.
4th June - It was nice, feeling the wind blow against your face and all. At first I thought it would be scary, but in the end, it wasn't as scary as I thought it was. They dropped us near the shore, which was also fun :)
5th June - Eh. It wasn't as fun as yesterday. Yes the wind-blowing-against-face thing was the best part, but the dropping part was bad. At first he dropped us in the middle of the ocean (don't know why) and my nose hurt really bad cause all the water went in. 2nd time, he dropped us neat the shore which was fine, but it hurt as well. Don't know why the one yesterday didn't hurt at all.


The food was très bien too! It was Chinese food for all 3 days.

Homogenous Session was fun too. We had this game called, 'The Life and Times of Sid Han'. He had a 'diary' and we were suppose to complete the tasks given in the diary, which resulted in pictures like these (Isaiah 43:1-7):


"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine."


"Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you, and people in exchange for your life."


"I will say to the north, 'Give them up!' and to the south, 'Do not hold them back.' Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth-"


"Everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made."


I don't rmb what was the meaning behind this pic.. but it's cute!

Not to forget, the meaningful messages by Rev. Earl Bengs were powerful! "You ARE somebody!!"

Random funny pictures...


Having fun with the megaphone..
I had funnier pics of KK holding the megaphone.. don't know where it went.




Just being silly..


Swinging away..

Aww there are a lot more nice pictures from the DSLR camera!
