GIRLS' NIGHT OUT!

No, this is not publicity for Arts Bash 2006 (thank you Enlin for pointing that out!) Instead, we're having our very first Girls' Night Out! Exclusive to ladies only, all can expect a night of superb fun and fab bonding. To up the glam factor, we're having it at the Esplanade! To keep in-sync with the venue, the theme for the night shall be AVANT GARDE. (huh? si mi lai eh?)

Avant-garde /É‘vÉ‘ÌƒgÉ‘rd/
n.
A group active in the invention and application of new techniques in a given field, especially in the arts.

adj.
radically new or original

Yupppp! Think radical, flamboyance, flairand swagger! To add to the fun, an esplanade voucher for the night's Best Dressed is to be won. All must do their best to adhere by this dress code! No wet blankets! Oh yes, and as much as avant garde suggests flash and flaunt, wear something comfy. Dresses/skirts highly NOT recommended. Come flashy but comfy :)

In short, details are as follows:

Date: 27th June, tues
Meeting time: 6.45pm
Meeting point: Adidas at Citylink Mall
Theme: avant-garde!
Dress code: fun, fresh and flamboyant. Unique!
Programme: dinner, games, games and more games!

So put aside all your worries and stress, groove to the beat, unleash the arty-farty side in you and expect a blast of a time!

Attendance is compulsory. This is an exciting event not to be missed! :))

Looking forward to money-can't-buy night of silly fun,
Rouen
Girls' Night Out. The men don't get it.

Hello cellites! Reading Ben's testimony reminds me of God's provision which occurred even just last Sunday!

After the 11am service (which was REALLY good and really spoke to me about Resting in God--more on that another time), Zhen and i went to West Mall for lunch and we decided to take a walk around. Just the previous day, we were in town and i saw this really gorgeous blouse from G2000 but it was waaay too ex for me--S$59.00 for that blouse.

So i was trying to distract myself from thinking about that blouse but still, eventually we walked into G2000. =p

We decided to each buy one (because there's a promotion and the second blouse would cost only half price). meaning it'd be approximately $60+$30=$90 (bear with me, maths never was and still isn't my best subject), so each of us would have to fork out $45.

Then as we were waiting in queue at the cashier, this old lady started asking us about the price of our blouses and all, and it turned out that her daughter has this 50% discount voucher that applies to all merchandise in G2000, and so they very kindly offered to pay for everything under the same bill so that our blouses will be half-priced too..! And we don't even know them...! =)

and yea, if you do your maths, it's only $30 for each blouse which was originally almost $60! That's like God just gave us one free blouse....!
=D

Now you know how hard i prayed for that blouse =p.

hey ya'll. ben here. i just thought i'd share something personal here for all of ya on how God's moving in my life.

i'm declaring myself officially anti-piracy. those who know me will know i'm the computer savvy one who knows all abt downloading illegal stuff. =P anyway, before life conference thru friends who'd dare make a stand and during life conference, God had been speaking to me little by little about piracy... and changing my "what's wrong with it?" stance. aft bruce hills' sermon at YAS's, i've finally been convicted to no longer compromise and thus have cleared out my computer of downloaded movies, tv series, software, games and most of my secular music. that which i downloaded but did not buy that remains are most of the christian music that i want also to serve as a reminder to myself to get the CDs when the provision comes.

it's not been easy... i'm feeling a void now that i dun have my soccer game to play anymore. but God' showed me the time i'd lost to the game and how much He wanted me to grow in other areas but I'd given my time away whenever there was any. i cleared the stuff in stages, as i wrestled with God over... "hmm... this i really want... these not so impt... hmm... this one also... but but..." well... my heart knew that no compromise means not even one. yup. and one thing that was lingering in my heart that pushed this thru was the issue of trust. this act is my declaration of trust that God's my provider, that I believe He will provide all I need.
well. that's all. God bless ya'll.

Hello one and all...

Hope all things are progressing fine over at your end... On my side, the buzz has just begun and IM EXCITED!!! :D

with the WORLD CUP!!! + 33 pts (1 for each day!!) - 1 pt for the czech to the ghana-ians... :(
with my summer sch which = to interesting students from YALE Uni!! :D + 19pts (1 for each of my classmates)
with my HALL's rag and flag prep = + 80 pts (1 for each day)

with LIFE CONFERENCE = priceless...
(i actually wanted to say pointless... but someone would quickly say that it's OUT OF POINT... :P)

Anyway yes... This is a reminder to all once again that the LIFE conference is upon us and it is indeed priceless (not pointless!) becos it will refresh and empower us, refine and enliven us! I personally believe that it will be a turning point and defining moment for not just the church, but for EVERY INDIVIDUAL whom goes for it...

So for those who have signed up for the day conference, pls take note of some pointers...

1. Life Conference kicks off with a revival meeting next Wed, 21 June, 7.30pm. The nightly revivial meetings (Wed-Fri nights) are open to the public.

2. The Day Conference begins on 22 June (9am-6pm). Registration will begin at 8 am. Do come early to register and collect your conference materials in view of the number of participants and the high volume of traffic in and out of our premises. All sessions will be starting on time, so don’t miss out!
3. Transport & Parking - BEN TAKE NOTE!!!

- You are encouraged to car pool with your friends/cell members.

- Once the carpark is full, cars will be redirected to park at Arcadia Road. The Traffic Police has reminded all Trinitarians to park considerately and adhere to traffic rules*. Ferry service will be provided.

* Please do not park at Adam Park, Chee Hoon Avenue or Adam Road Hospital. When you park at Arcadia Road, note that there should be no parking at bends, at entrance or exits of premises, within 3 metres of fire hydrant and 6 metres of road junctions.

4. You are on your own for lunch for both days. Ample time will be given for all to proceed to nearby eateries.
5. All SPs are to be prepared to serve at the altar especially during the night revival meetings. Thus do dress appropriately for the conference.

For those who can only make it for the NIGHT meetings, I will most likely be goin for at least wed and fri and if possible thurs as well... I am wondering if it's ok for you guys if we meet for DINNER at Adam at 630pm and then head over to church by 7pm... PLS SMS me to confirm that k? For those who are working and are keen to join us for the night revival meetings, PLS sms me early so that i can book seats for you in the auditorium... ya? :)

That's all from me for now... I'll see you all in a while... :D
