today is the day i re-borned my hair. i went to my usaual salon and had one of the salonist to cut for me. i think this hair is worth cutting and it benifits me in a few ways. first, i can save time, i do not have to spend time waxing my hair... next, i don't need to worry my hair being messed up by some ppl. my hair will be able to be dried extremely fast.
this is like going to be the hottest trend in unity level 2. so many guys had already shaved their heads and there are more to come. it was just one person(my bro) which made so many ppl want to cut. as his beloved twin brother, i want to look even more alike and so went to cut today.
but why in the first place did my bro do this? he felt that his hair was very thick and didn't like the way it is, so he went to the toilet to cut. i warned him not to cut, but stubborn peter neglected my words. sigh... to mae things short, he made holes on his head(side). it was horrible. after much disscusion with me, he decided to shave his head. it was late at night and so he asked my mother to cut for him. we did not have a shaver to she used a pair of scissors. the hair style was unimaginable but still he had to bear with it for one day. the next day, he went to have a proper shave after church service. btw, it was super embarrassing in church. and that was why he shaved his head...
In the Bible, it says that we are fearfully and wonderfully made. so no matter how ugly you are, you are always beautiful in the eyes of God. your hairstyle does not tell you who you are, your basketball skills does not tell you who u are, your volleyball skills does not tell you who u are, your study grades does not tell you who you are, but it is how much God values you.
this i my first time cutting it so i am apparantly having some funny feeling like when the wind blows, my hair seems as if there is static... and oh yes... one more thing, please don't laugh at me...
( i thought we could have done something more interesting like freeze.)

Sentosa? vivo?
Man! i just can't wait for friday. its gonna be fun! having a buzz (cell) outing. going to sentosa, maybe to play beach volleyball or beach soccer... well hope God holds the clouds so that back up plans are not needed. just incase it rains, we have planned to go to vivo to watch movie!!! must make sure we choose the best one. hope this outing will help us to build stronger bonds with each other.
special event- HUNGRY, was today. it was like an 'Amazing Race'. Groups went to stations around payalebar, played some games like singing a song with water full in your mouth and let your teammates guess it. 'Amazing Race' wasn't all, after we came back to church, we gathered the ingredients that we had bought along the way and made a sandwich. basically, there was a sandwich making competition. a few selected teams whose sandwich was interesting, were judged by the judges- according to their taste and story of their sandwich; for example, the town was sinful and chaotic, and the bread represented Jesus. He came down and died on the cross for their sins and they were forgiven.( my group's sandwich story).
after that, sis Gwen preached a little bit about hungry. Matt 12: 22- 30. it says not to worry about our life, what we eat; or worry about what you wear. life is more than food and the body is more then clothing. like the birds, they do not reap what they sow, but God feeds them. God also clothe the grass. You are more valued than the birds and the grass. if God feeds the birds and clothe the grass, he will also feed and clothe you. He is God the provider. ( to know more, read the verses stated above)
who am i? a pastor from America, miami, preached to Ignyte( youth ministry). the preaching was powerful. Many people do not know who they are. To know yourself, you have to first know Christ. If you do not know your purpose, you will be abused. just like a basketball, if you do not know its purpose, you might kick it and use it to play soccer.
You are not what others call you( fat pig, stupid, useless, etc.), what your parents call you, what your friends call you, what your enemies call you. listen not to them but to Jesus because you are what he called you. Do not be overwhelmed by the things people call you, thats a lie from the devil.
This is just a very short summary of what the pastor preached.
Who am I? That the Lord of all the earth, Would care to know my name, Would care to feel my hurt. Who am I? That the bright and morning star, Would choose to light the way, For my ever wandering heart.
Bridge: Not because of who I am, But because of what you've done. Not because of what I've done, But because of who you are.
Chorus: I am a flower quickly fading, Here today and gone tomorrow, A wave tossed in the ocean, A vapor in the wind. Still you hear me when I'm calling, Lord, you catch me when I'm falling, And you've told me who I am. I am yours. I am yours.
Who am I? That the eyes that see my sin Would look on me with love And watch me rise again. Who am I? That the voice that calmed the sea, Would call out through the rain, And calm the storm in me.
Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done. Not because of what I've done, But because of who you are.
I am a flower quickly fading, Here today and gone tomorrow, A wave tossed in the ocean, A vapor in the wind. Still you hear me when I'm calling, Lord, you catch me when I'm falling, And you've told me who I am. I am yours.
Not because of who I am, But because of what you've done. Not because of what I've done, But because of who you are.
I am a flower quickly fading, Here today and gone tomorrow, A wave tossed in the ocean, A vapor in the wind. Still you hear me when I'm calling, Lord, you catch me when I'm falling, And you've told me who I am. I am yours. I am yours.
I am yours.
Whom shall I fear? Whom shall I fear? 'Cause I am yours. I am yours.
