heys everyone! xD

hm haven post for quite some time le. hahaha basically what ive been doing is slacking at home, going for piano and driving lessons. oh and the trips to the library. hahaha what i said bout finding a job and all hasnt been realised at all hahaha. and i havent even started redesigning my dress. haha. oh man. and school is starting after one week. hm. i really need to get a grip and start actually doing things. and stop waiting for things to come to me... i need to make things happen. hm. hahahaha. been slacking for too long luh. hm.

before talking bout next week i guess i should talk bout whats happened for the past few days right? hm we went crabbing on friday. pretty cool. except if u really want to do it properly u need to stay till quite late cos that is when the tide comes in and the crabs are swept nearer to shore. then u have to tread carefully or else u'll scare the crabs away. the big ones i mean. the small ones pretty much stay in one place till u try to catch it. then they attempt to escape. lol. me and my sis saw 2 big ones. but they were running away alr and we missed xD hahaha in the end we only had 3 crabs to bring home. all the rest were too small haha. in fact, the ones we brought home weren't what u would consider really big. hahaha if got ranger come then we would have been fined i think. but yea. we left earlier, round 10 i guess. reached home round 11 cause the drabbing place we went is actually quite far. if stay later i guess there would be more crabs. but anyway, since its the first time, its  for the experience bah. haha. quite fun, although all the seaweed is quite annoying. when u get tangled up in it that is. but yea. hm...i dont really think there was any other interesting stuff... for driving ive finished all the basics alr, so now its about building confidence and speed i guess. hehe. went out for a spin with my parents tonight. hm first time driving at night, was a bit scared at first. will definitely be going out more after this hee. need to get used to all the turning and other manouvering. like parking etc. xD

today at church the paster gave a msg about reaching out. he based it on the great commission in matthew 28:18-20. i think the main thing for me was that reaching out is an active thing. we need to make it a goal in life and work actively towards it. and it doesnt stop at the sinners prayer. we need to follow through, to build up the new believer in the word, to help them understand the faith and all it stands for. just saying the sinners prayer isnt enought o get us saved. its the follow through that counts. to be honest, i havent been the best at follow up. i guess my best 'case' was seokie. although she's in another church, im glad that she finally found the faith. =) but there are people like angie, like si hui, like sabrina, who i have failed to follow up with properly. i think for angie i kinda thought that it was more xuannies responsibility than mine. then in the end it just fell through. >< for si hui... even though i kept in contact, i was unable to meet up with her and she fell away... for sab, i have no idea how she is... it was kinda ok when i was still doing discipleship with her, although i have to say she wasnt the most keen person. but then when i left... i have no idea how she is now. who is doing discipleship with her? is she still going for di? din see her when i was back too... sigh. i dunno, but she gave the feeling that she's very sheltered. then shes not used to making decisions and stuff on her own... sigh. i dunno man.
although i have to admit that my attitude used to be that bringing my friends to church was enough. that after they came to christ, pei xuan can take over for the follow through. i never really though about it till like i was given more responsibilities. but i guess i wasnt that active. in fact, i was quite passive, only asking my close friends, like pri school friends, to church. hm. i guess it was one of my regrets when i left ny. the thing is, i dunno why also. why din i ever ask ny classmates to church? like non-xnps/non-squadmate ppl? when i think about it, i have pretty much no answer at all. >< i guess my focus wasnt there, somehow. hm. but its too late for regrets. the only thing i can do now is to think of how to reach out to ppl in my school now and what can be done for discipleship. =) unite would definitely be part of the plan i guess. haha. but yea. =)
