i'm the last to blog. oh-so-enthusiastic-me lor. haha! busybusybusy mah! but after reading ur posts, i'm guilty. of claiming to be busybee, when in fact others have to cope with BOTH work & exams. AS YOU KNOW. AND IF YOU HAVENT KNOW. projection on 5oct was a hell mess. the fonts look like crap. the slides couldnt project. the video cannot play. my lappy decided to be cranky. so all in all, i had a couple of concerned faces after service, asking me "What happened today?" imagine. just how lousy i felt... reason being. i was late. and jon.w wanted to play this welcome video. and i was late. and so we had to try the sound and video in <15mins b4 the ushers open door for service. i was late. my lappy cldnt detect the cable. i was late. so i had to project the slides from the church lappy. my fonts went haywire. i was late. i was in a frenzy. and so my heart was not prepared to worship & serve that day. animation was messy. i couldnt focus. WE ALL HAVE OUR BAD DAYS hurh. you stayed up late to do the slides. make sure everything is perfect. the fonts are nice. the animations and backgrounds complement the songs all so well. you enter church with heart racing. eager to see your efforts on screen. and then, POOM! this worship leader decided to sing another song. the chairman wants to play that video. the speaker wants to you to edit his slides. the comp's giving you problems. and you thought, everything was suppose to run according to what you've plannned! everything should run perfect. at least, on your part. we all learn. i learnt. that everything will not run perfect. if my heart is not right in the 1st place. i stayed up late to look for the nicest slides. woke up early in the morning to do animations and hyerlinks. very tired. is that how it should be? rush to church. my heart not prepared. is that how it should be? busy projecting slides. making sure it looks nice on screen. do last minute editing to perfect slides. didnt pray. didnt join the worship team in prayer. is that how it should be? ushers open the door. congregation flocks in. still busy. doing welcome slides. writing slide no.s on song paper. is that how it should be? more often than not, we blame worship leaders for their last minute as-the-holy-spirit-leads changes. we blame them for disrupting the flow. the plan. shock us. is that how we should feel? remind me. cos' i 4got how it feels like. to freely worship God without worrying bout' how the slides will run or if worship leaders might change to a song that we didnt prepare. remind me. cos' a projectionist's primary role afterall, is to project slides. allow the congregation to sing along to the songs. remind me. i'm serving God, not slides :) xoxo, liwen

*Claps**shouts**Welcomes Vivian onboard!* I'm posting the 4th post! Heh! Anyway, here's a reply and some quick updates on my schedule.....My exams are coming! It seems harder this semester to get through. Well, why? A few reasons: 1) Firstly, I feel "pang-chek" - Flattened tyre in Hokkien. :p Probably cos it's my 3rd semester this sem and I've lost all my adrenaline (is that how you spell it?), lost the motivation when I just started school initially. Feeling tired and have the kind of "get over and done with" feeling. 2) Secondly, I have no leave to take this time to study! Well, as all of you know, I just got a new job, so I'm still on probation and there's quite alot of things for me to learn and do, so yup, good time management is what I need. Well, was telling my mum how stressed I was and she said sarcastically "Go and tell your Jesus la, he will help you." And I replied, "Oh ya, I must tell Him cos He will surely help me." And through this conversation, although my mum sounded sarcastic, but it just reminded me to rely on Him to go through this period. So, do pray for me ya? Alright, after all these nonsense, here's my exam schedule: 23 Oct 2008 - Human Resource Management 31 Oct 2008 - Leadership Management 5 Nov 2008 - Organizational Theory As for the youth camp, I would love to go. My leave is not approved yet, so I'll let you guys know soon! :) In His Love, Wei2

Heh! :) Thanks for setting the blog and for urging us to post chrissy. Truth to be told, it's been something that i want to get going since a couple of months ago when i had this super disastrous sunday projection. its so bad, i was urggggh. no words could described it.. but i think you guys understand :) And know what, each time we fail, i thank God that He picks us up, remind us that we are serving Him and not man. Hence, we learn and we get better each time. BUT Let's not be selfish and keep the lesson to ourselves! Let's share, blog about it.. talk about it, so that others learn! tee hee. So if it's a tough sunday, blog about it, tell us what went wrong and more importantly, what did you learn. And if sunday went great, tell us why too! And what we can learn from you! Alrighty, UPDATES!1) let's welcome VIVIAN onboard. training's gonna start pretty soon, 12th Oct to be precise. So you guys, she's going to see in with you! 2) chrissy dear is sitting for the mega Os.

When she's back we can make her do everything! :) 3) i'm going on a looonng holiday to the States from 24th nov to 17 dec.
