so its been a while since i've posted anything. cus last week was energy draining week. aka TC week. =P and it was indeed an awesome week. like.. going out every night xept friday (maddd good times!, but friday was a good recooperating day too.), the REC team family, meeting some new awesome coaches, the media/worship team kids, seeing so many AYJCF-ers steppin' it up and serving at TC, wii-ing and pretty much craziness in my basement... but the best part was deffinitely thursday night at TC. just seeing all the high school-ers so stoked and passionate about bringing Jesus out there into the world. on fire to share and spread God's word. that they care about whats out there. the rest of the world. and the fact that the coaches, REC, and whoever else volunteered at TC got to pray for/with them.
i still remember last year's TC06 Sr conference. where the focus was more towards unity within the teams. and i felt it. im still in touch with like half the team! which is an incredibly high percentage in comparison with all previous teams. lol.. but anyways, speaking about past TCs, twas also amazing to see so many of the kiddies i captained serving at TC! =) ranging from worship, to media, to MC, to captains.. yay! good to know that God is using me. i remember captaining in 04 and 06, and wasnt particularly too happy with myself. i knew i didnt give it my all and could've done a whole lot better. such as better prep for the Bible study, or perhaps been even more enthusiastic. but guess ive learnt. it isnt about immediate reaction. was talking to my parents about it the weekend after TC. and its so true. my mother said how the hardest part isnt getting someone to believe, but rather to help them continue in their spiritual journey. to continue growing. as overused as it is, i'm gunna use the seed/plant analogy just cus it makes so much sense! haha.. its easy to plant a seed. just stick it in the soil and you're done! but it takes committment to continue watering it, moving it into the sunlight, and just caring for it. that's the longer and more effort required step. and i got even more excited when i saw how all the high school kids are so passionate in bringing that 'hype' back to scac. well, plus they just had a winter retreat before TC. add all that in, they were deffinitely on a spiritual high. lol! and it was the didomi winter camp worship team who led worship on sunday. all of them at winter camp, then half of them at TC, oh mannn! haha.. but s'all good. i felt the genuine desire they had in expressing how they wanted to praise God. and guess its similar to what ive been wanting to bring back to SCAC ever since my first TC (in 2002). and you know whats even MORE exciting? 1 has signed up to be on TC worship. another signed up for captaining. and 2 more has told me they are also thinking about worship team! plus a few first timers at TC from scac are really really pumped to go back to TC08 as well! PTL! is this the beginning of the scac revival i've envisioned for so long? and with Rev.Lee resigning after 20 yrs (aww... he's the pastor who did my baby dedication! ive got pictures to prove it. back when he had hair and HUGE glasses =P anyways,) this is the nudge SCAC needs to STEP IT UP. myself included. for ppl to start serving at scac, and for the ones already serving to continue with a serving heart and not 'just cus'.
hmm.. which brings me to another thing. summer 07. my dad came up with an interesting idea of what i could 'possibly' do. will pray about it and i'll release more details later. i really like it. but prayer is most deffinitely needed right now. and i'll act on it when the time comes (im guessing easter weekend?). so blessed with such awesome understanding parents. hehe.. being a CK. counsellor's kid! =P you know, there's been soooo much drama going on lately. HAHA.. oh TC. all the 5-ing! but im kinda use to it. since my parents are the counsellors of the late 20s/early 30s age group (aka they're all getting married age) at scac, i've heard more than enough dating stories. and i gotta admit, some of them have a pretty good twist to them! whose going out with who, who just got dumped, which couple just split up, whose engaged and how it happened, numerous weddings (i believe there's at least 8 this season. WOW.), and some kids are on the way too! =) i'll no longer be the 'baby' of the fellowship. hah! but yes, guess my point is just that this preps my parents to be so understanding. just watching them counsel ppl thru their problems (more than just courting problems obviously), and knowing they'll be able to handle and help me in whatever situation i get myself into. haha.. and amazing how they usually approach problems from a biblical perspective. just encourages me to sort out all my problems that way too, rather than what i want to happen.
and summer. yes. CCSA07 season. =) glad ppl are replying to emails and we've finally got the Jr leadership within SCAC sorted! im excited. both the playing sball part, and whats instore for SCAC! but more on this later.
anyways.. ive wasted enough time. could've written a good portion of my Film020 paper by now. but oh well! its good to get some thoughts down too. even if the thoughts are quite the scattered and not put together nicely. kinda explains how my essay marks arent too good =P

oh reading week.. you were wonderful!
well, i DID get 1.5 weeks of reading week =P i started on wed, feb21st! haha.. quick recap.
21st, wed: 3:40pm train out, dinner at 7pm with (hk) relatives. $130 red pockets
22nd, thurs: drove hk relatives around TO. $380 red pockets. At night, All Star Wings with lorr, becky, and allyma! (pix on allyma's facebook)
23rd, fri: dropped by aunt/uncles. $400 red pockets. then coluni retreat! (refer to 2 pre-posts for full details)
26th, mon: bummed around at home. did laundry. chillax to the max with movies.
27th, tues: AYJCF visit plus dinner with UWO (ex)-ACF bunch! (details at the bottom of this post)
28th, wed: eaton centre with anna chan, drop by from nat yeung, and rccf visit/swiss chalet after!
1st, thurs: snowed in. 3D puzzle buildage. (refer to the post before this one)
2nd, fri: got new softball glove!!! =) thanks to Caleb for helping me pick one out! gotta love that word.. "SALE". haha! so excited for this upcoming season! oh! and we saw the most ridiculous thing at market village/pmall. at 3pm, on a friday, ZERO cars in market village parking lot. what the...! and that is what happens when there is no electricity. haha.. so now we've discovered what can stop chinese ppl from working. snow wont work. holidays wont work. but pulling the plug does the trick. =P
3rd, sat: TC REC training (so jokes!), and lunch was even more jokes! then me and rex crashed T3C, where media was practicing, and a/v was also there getting to know the script. and of course, JayHo was there! yes. JayHo. one of the TCjr07 MCs!! haha.. good times. coming up with random ideas. then of course, us (ex)MCs are too cool, that Derk and Candy joined us too! haha.. and here's Rex's infamous quote that made everyone's day!
"why is there no hair on your abs?"
"hair doesn't grow on my abs... OF STEEL!"
HAHAHA... think were talking about pick up lines and stuff. hah.. no macking.. wha?? =P
haha.. anyways, so back to the 27th. wanna blog about that day in more detail.
27th:
AYJCF visit. wow it's changed. didnt know anyone there, xept the leaders and 2 others. but was good seeing matt to, tim kim, jayho, mish, tim jong, willie, (anyone else?) again. and of course, matt wan was the speaker (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!). yeah.. he still came even tho he was sick and was his birthday. but what he talked about was pretty amazing too. kinda what i needed to hear. not what i wanted to hear, but needed to hear. it was from joshua 1. he talked about how moses was such an amazing leader. yet here was joshua. God telling him to be the new leader for the israelites. he more than likely felt fear. how can he live up to moses' standards?
FAITH -----------vs.------------- FEAR
so to summarize it, matt wanted to share about how we shouldn't be comparing ourselves to other leaders we know, cus they seem so much 'greater' than we will ever be. but how every single leader began with a dream or vision. and that we need to lead with faith. not fear. faith that God has called you to do this. not fear of failing or embarassment for stepping up.
this was pretty much the confirmation i needed. and God provided this answer for me. stepping up and helping out scac. thru softball, and worship, and who knows what else to come in the future. to serve and lead.
that was a really brief summary. but thats the main point. haha..
and so here i am, back in rez =( but with my new glove =). ive dropped the softball a few times (oops). haha.. but no one's complained yet. so yay! gotta get my left arm back in shape. haha... i cant wait to pwn some guys again! HAH.

toronto vs. london, england
took approx 10hrs to complete the CN Tower 3D puzzle. =P
yep.. woke up round noon-ish? kinda took me awhile to get something to eat, before heading down to the basement to begin the puzzle. in between, took a small break, watched an episode of friends, chatted on msn a bit, ate dinner, shoveled the snow outside, did the dishes, then officially finished the puzzle at 10:30pm. w00t.
got the camera, got my mother to come down to take a look, and now its 11:03, im blogging about it, and have loaded the pix onto laptop and resized it already! hahaha... so maybe it only took me 8hrs or so to finish the puzzle. no challenge whatsoever. someone buy me a harder puzzle.. haha! well, since there's TO's CN Tower, and London, England's Big Ben, (and one of the speakers from my dad's home theatre system. haha.. so short =P my puzzles pwn it! but anyways,) think i'll be happy to get the Venice, Sanfrancisco, or New York City 3D puzzles too! s'only $35 =P i shall hit up Mind Games and buy them soon.. like summer or something. hahaha...
and yes. i have a life. if you havent noticed, today was madd crazy snow. so im snowed in anyways. so i spent the time on a puzzle.
but now... time to find ppl to play in the snow with! tobagonning anyone? =D
and reading week's been quite the awesome. i'll blog about it later tho. dont really feel like it atm. wanna relax. that puzzle drains energy. and lots of leaning over so i kinda like sitting back in my comfy chair in my room. im just missing some hot chocolate. haha.. will probs get myself some real soon (aww yeah! Second Cup's white hot chocolate mix!), and watch some sappy (romantic comedy) movie soon. Fools Rush In it is. =)
