| I dont want to leave Singapore right now
Met the people from Church of the Ascension about 2 weeks ago, which ironically is Ps. Gilbert's church, and now wish I had been going there all this time! I've met people who I get on with so well, people who are my age, my interests and here I am with only 10 days left in Singapore and not around this weekend cos I'll be in KL.
We've hung out, watched movies, gone dancing and had a sleep over at church where we did all of the above! haha... I don't want to leave now, and it doesn't help that my friends here are just telling me to extent my stay....
Aiyor......
I want to come back for sure, but wouldn't it be easier to not leave???!!!

| So it's Rob's last couple of days and he's trying obviously to try and fit in as much as poss before he leaves. We decided to go back to City Harvest today to catch up with some of the guys before Rob leaves. Was actually really really nice to go back and see the guys again. Funny that 2 months ago, we met these people and haha..... here we are, coming along to say bye, when we were suppose to see them day in day out for 4 months! Was encouraging to hear what they've been up to, how God is teaching and stretching them so much.
A part of me can't wait to really get that training that I know I desperately want, but I don't regret leaving the school. I know that God has shown me wonderful and amazing things since I've been here. A part of my was glad that I didn't do the school in the end, cos I have been able to see and experience so much, maybe if God calls me to be back in Singapore in the future, I will be more ready??! who knows.
Rob & I then went over to Pastor Gilbert's house to have dinner with their family. I will truly miss them when I go back to UK. They have been such a blessing to me and Rob, family who has been there to care for us and encourage us.
Right now, I'm saying goodbyes alongside Rob FOR Rob leaving on monday, knowing that in 3 weeks or so, it will be MY turn to do the same thing. How do I best make use of my time??? I'm trying to fit in meeting up with people to hang out. Hoping that it will all go to plan.

| Only one month left in Singapore, and time feels like it's running away from me to quickly, which is both good and bad right now. I mean, right now..... I really just enjoy being here, having found people I really get along with and who are entertaining in so many many ways....
       
but then of course, home will always be home. All my family and friends that are back in Bristol. 
Gonna be going back up to Kuala Lumpur the first weekend of July to for a Cardiff Reunion. Will see a whole bunch of people who I haven't been able to see since uni finished all those years ago! haha.... can't wait to see everyone again..... Although it seems like the world is such a small place when you bump into all these people from all over, it really isn't small enough at times. 
I finished up officially at the kindergarten last Friday. It was a nice end to a wonderful time with those kids. We went to the Botanical gardens for the school annual picnic, so every class with all the teachers went, though it absolutely POURED with rain that day, and in the 3 hours we were there, we stayed under shelter and just ate snacks! haha. Still the kids had fun with their parents and siblings there too. I'm gonna miss going in to see those kids!  God has blessed me with time to spend with them and it'sad to think I won't be seeing them so much now.
   
Met up with Rhonda today and spent the day catching up with her. hehe.... nice that HK is so close to Singapore and she just popped over for a few days! haha..... Cant believe that all those years have passed since we were still in school!!!! Good ol' times indeed. Went to Bugis, Orchard Rd, and then Little India.
   
Been spending time with Eunice and her friends. I love hanging out with them, they're so easy going and fun. There's a couple of them that are into photography too and so we've just been playing and taking pics! hehe..... Can't wait to see them all properly. Think I'm gonna go to their church for the remaining time I have cos I got on really well with the girls from that church, so spend more time with them now that I'm free and they're on holiday.

| It's 12.30am, and I seriously should be sleeping cos Gilbert is picking me up in 5 hours so we can head off to Kuala Pumpur for their church camp. Yet here am I, sitting here typing this. hahahah
Looking forward to the break, although it's dawning on me now how quickly my time here in singapore is running out. Been sick the last couple of days with a cold, not the bed ridden kind, but the annoying kind! haha.... enough energy to do stuff, but tickly throat and so on. Still a bit of a cough right now, so please pray for me.
Will take lots of pics while I'm away again!!!! hahaha.... Got my hair trimmed today for $7!!!! hahaha that's like just over £2..... dry cut, but still!!!
Gotta sleep, but hopefully update more when I get back.
Pastor Lai here next week too! hehe..... so much on next week. Gonna be fun fun fun!

| So for some of you, I have already told you, or in some cases, you were there to witness this yourself =D
But for those of you who haven't heard, a couple weeks back on 22nd May 2007. I went to the Tuesday group fellowship in Singapore as Rob & I have done since being here.
Finally met Mike Reyes, this guy who I have heard so much about who has been gifted with an anointing of healing. Someone asked me if I knew who he was, and then as I joked and mimicked the leg lengthen thing that happens are many healing conferences, he came over and asked me if I wanted to be healed of that then and there!!! LOL
My lower back has been hurting for a long time now and didn't expect for him to do it then. He got me to sit down and stretch out my legs to compare them, and my right leg was shorter apparently. I couldn't really see or tell from the angle I was looking at it. He prayed over it and I didn't really feel anything change. Got up and I could still feel the pain in my back. After which he checked my arm lengths! haha...... my right arm was noticably shorter by about 1cm. He prayed over it and as he did that, I felt something in my arm. It was as though I was reaching and stretching forward. My back didn't feel AS bad after, but still something, so he prayed over the muscles and honestly, it went after that.
It has come back a little bit, but I KNOW that in the spiritual realm, the healing is done and the physical world just needs to follow. I'm not gonna let the enemy deceive me and make me doubt it. The muscles will in time follow through and let go =D hehehe
Indonesia was good. Church camp with Eunice's church. Was good to meet up with new people and get to know some of the youth. Spent time getting to know Eunice's friends who are very "Honger". Missed that kinda company in all honesty. Refreshing to be around loud and funny people! hehe... Whole thing made me realise how little time I really have here now. I know I still have 6 weeks or so, but with going to Malaysia for 5 days, that's another week gone already! haha..... Time slipping away too quickly now! Got back to Singapore and spent time with them all taking photos and going out. hehehe.... I'm really gonna miss the people here when I go.
As much as I miss home... I definitely will be coming back here again. Just thinking about when I go makes me miss the people here!
