so it's been two weeks since i've come back, and i think i've finally gotten used to the life here in singapore again. the constant showers amidst the feel of slick perspiration, the slaughtered mangled english, the sudden population explosion and labyrinthine developments @ orchard road and the likes.
things have changed. they really have. and i'm kinda a bit dejected by the fact that i spent so little effort in maintaining the frienships here. it feels like a reverse culture shock, something familiar yet so disconnected. but well, i'm not going to complain, there's much much more in my mind now to contend with, lots of prayers and communications required with God as I iron out issues. =)

was a blast. how can it not be when you have a motley crew of John Piper, Joshua Harris and CJ Mahaney all coming to one convention and speaking. but what made me all the more overjoyed was the amount of christian support and fellowship i experienced with the group i travelled with. everyone was so passionate, mature and loving and it made the trip all the more fun. I honestly started the trip with slight trepidation but fully believing God's ways are wonderful. and it was indeed. we went as a group of strangers and we came back have sharing much of ourselves and having prayed much for each other. it was indeed a period of fellowship and growth for me. =)
the conference also made me confront many issues that I had been struggling with for quite awhile i would say.. and well.. i got answers and help. but the uncomfortable truth is, somehow i still struggle with the idea of doing what I believe in and saying. it seems like a lifelong lesson...
well.. back to work for now. =)
