man how they have changed...

Just got back from an awesome camp last Wednesday. Pre-Mad camp.

I was not supposed to be there as i had class, but i was not able to pull myself away from the camp. It was not just the excitement of the feeling that something great was about to happen, but also...It was the people there.

For those who are familiar with the style of SE, pre-mad usually is held in church and well most of the time everything is well taken care of, which is a good thing because the committee is a bunch of young people with no experience in taking care of people younger than them, and most of the time they themselves are the people that we need to take care of.

After this camp, man i realized, all those "kids" have grown up.

Camp coordinator, Li-anne...
Used to remember her in sunday school not listening to the teacher, playing with her handphone, disturbing other people...now commanding ppl to "Listen and keep quite while poeple are up front talking ."

Sarah Loke
Remembered the first pre-youth camp when she said "How to do pumping...i cant la"
to the sarah that carried David's VOX amp all the way from the car park to chapel, and telling David "Hey i can do something you cant"

John Yong
Always branded as the trouble maker.. Still is :) but now a smarter one, and a more submissive one..and really fun to be around good transport arranger too...

Joseph Ng
Used to be the quiet little kid who floows his sisters around. Never looked like he would have friends, but now...one of the more prominent Worship Leaders, lead the saujana CF, and now also emceeing for games...(what happend to the quiet side??)

Garry
Also used to be just tagging around the sister...then now head of usher.

Timothy Liaw
From feeling lost from all the missed years from KL to knowing the direction to go..and a Very good and strict boy's coordinator :p

Oh well..since we're here talking about ppl..

David
Used to be the kid who plays too loud and too fast...to now...the musician who is going to berkley and plays with a metronome and tries to control his level. :)

Rachel
Remember the first mad camp in shalom villa..when i thought the onli thing she knew how to do was run...to becoming the HSG idol runner up

Razel
Changed from the girl with too much makeup, to the one who shines with natural beauty

Paul Lau
KT kampung boy who was bullied by younger ppl in church camp...to Prayer warrior for God

Ryan tan
From the young boy i prayed for hte first time when he was 11 years old...to a boy who didn't want to take over cf...to a young man who leads his own cf :)

Hannah Loke
From shy girl who doesnt talk(at least not to me) to service coordinator who orders me to do offering :p

Joseph Cheah
Little boy who likes to dance hawaiian dance...to young man who started cf...to young man who leads worhsip...to a young man who left a deep imprint in DP and HSG before going off to Australia

Tara Ong
From a little girl who says "jie i'm scared" to a young woman who's leading OCF :)

Elliot
From super Emo (no offence) to counsellor for emos :p

Nicki Lee
From a non chirstian with low self esteem to a christian who shares her testimony on stage and is able to pray over a congregation to bless the younger people

Ivan V
From first MAD (remember what happened :p) and gangsterish boy to a young man who's putting his knives to good use :)

Timothy Lau
From just wanting to serve as a drummer...to having a passion to minister to chinese speaking youths
