altho.. it was only as a "Observer". aka training, aka run around and complete any errands. i pretty much just watched, and helped out with "Tape Op". (record copies of the 9AM and 11AM services onto DVDs for archiving purposes, and recording the sermon only for the TV Crew to watch later)
i guess i did a good job, ready to learn anything thrown my way. but most of the stuff is just similar to thursday mornings during Sisterhood. except this is Sunday morning instead!
so by the time i was waiting at the bus stop to go home (i bought a week pass! so figured i'd bus it as much as possible to get my money's worth. asian... i know =P), i checked my bb and voila! new email. i had been rostered AGAIN for next sunday!!!
how awesome is that?
its for camera 1 asst. a small role. but its for Sunday AM Hillsong Church. =)
which reminded me of a sermon Louie Giglio preached, on living your life to bring God glory.
the analogy was this:
"i'd rather be an extra on some major big budget movie (i.e. star wars, lotr, etc), than be the main actor in a small unknown short film."
comparing it to:
"i'd rather live my life, playing a small role in God's grand plan, than be the star of my own life."
it totally reminded me of that right now. i'd rather have a small little role with Hillsong Church's main campus TV Crew, than proudly walk around bragging about some tiny lil video i made and uploaded on to facebook. (not that i do. haha)
all i can say is, im super excited for sunday next week!! haha
would also like to mention, i went to BLUE MOUNTAINS yesterday with cell!!!
now, i know all you Ontarioans are thinking "what! the ski resort in Collingwood!". no no... thats just a big hill. here in sydney, Blue Mountains is an actual range of mountains!
its just on the edge of Sydney, and it took us like 2hrs to get there via public transport. lol
so we met up at strathfield at 7am (yes, on a saturday morning!), arrived in Katoomba at like 9 something. took us another 30-45min to walk to Echo Point. twas a beautiful australian fall day. cloudless blue skies, sun shining, small slight breeze, but not windy. perfect for seeing the Three Sisters, and going hiking!
to be honest, the three sisters was a big disappointment. the view of the rest of the mountainous area was so much more astonishing! lol.
we climbed down The Giant Stairway, which consists of 1,032 steps!! talk about a workout! lol... so we ended up near the bottom of the mountain. then we went for a 1.5hr hike along the side of the mountain, following the trail.
so after that, there is NO WAY we were willing (nor had the energy) to climb back up. so we hopped on the Scenic Railway Cable Car thingy (said to be the steepest in the world!), and got back up the mountain that way.
all in all, it is now 3pm the next day, and my legs are MAJORLY sore. thank goodness i wasnt cam1 asst this morning. or else i'd be standing all morning. lol
so... i have this coming week off from school! yay! :D
my plans?
- SLEEP IN.
- movie 2mrw w/ Sum and Suzanne at Parra
- do Amos and journal assessments
- catch up on movies (tangled, princess and the frog, LoTR, little fockers... any other suggestions?)
- oh and kicking tonight off with Debbie's bday dinner at The Outback!!! (legit!)
