Man you guys did an amazing job at planning! Thanks! and thank God that he decided to take interest in this small island off the coast of a little red dot =D. Yep Pris told me that she was sharing her testimony of how she made it to LTD so I thought hey I would to even though I did that bouncy thing on the last day yeps.
I contemplated for a few days as to whether to go for LTD '07 but in the end I decided and informed my parents on the saturday before the camp that I wouldn't go for camp and instead I would go mug all the way since my exams are on monday and in my school, NUS High, exams can drive you nuts. But on sunday, after service when I zoned out for a while and reviewed the past few days events, this voice, which I now believe to be the voice of God, spoke to me. He told me, "go for camp! Go for camp!" So, all things considered, that voice has already saved my life a number of things, literally as well, I just followed and went to ask for Bro. Wai's advice on the matter. He told me to ask but not to push it so that I would still be able to go for church next sunday and be baptized in Jesus name! So I prayed for advice on how to broach the subject, for advice on what to say and for patience for the, in all likelyhood, lecture that I won't blow my fuse. And to cut the long story short, after an hour odd I think, they agreed! PRAISE GOD! And the camp has been absolutely awesome, I believe I know my calling, I know how to praise God and how and why to worship Him. Heard a number of inspiring testimonies and I made some friends along the way.
LTD2007!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take care, God bless

Hey LTD Committee!!! Really great to have you guys as the committee as you guys had done a GREAT job and i felt blessed with this wonderful team! What i am going to share is not a great one, but it is what showed me that God is faithful even in little things and i hope it would touch someone.
For this year's LTD i have received really a lot from it, one of which is that i got a personal revelation of what God wants to direct me in the future. People who had been studying with me in church should know that i had always been grumbling about having to study Southeast Asian studies in my H2 history module. It is really a hard subject to me (i kept failing my essays), i always been constantly thinking of dropping it, and on top of that, i am also very unsure whether i had made the right choice in switching subject from econs to history. During one of the night when we were told to pray for a burden for any country, i came to realise that God put me into "this previously most hated" subject for a great purpose. God told me that i am not in this by fluke, but this is part of His great plan that through all these work, God will prepare me to do great works in Asia as Southeast Asian studies actually created in me a connecting point to the people from different backgrounds from different countries in our region! It is actually demonstrated straight away as i felt a lot connected Vietnam when it was talked about and find that i have many things in heart to pray for that country. I went back to read the past prayer pointer booklet for Asia and i realised that it was indeed much easier for me to have a deeper understanding of what was concerned. I also picked up a lot from the prayer pointers and applied to greater understanding in my course of study in Southeast Asia history. (I took much lesser time to digest the "MEAT" in my history notes - trust me, i have to read 3-4 times to understand a sentence sometimes.)
God is Good! =D

What a completely crazy and I have to say WONDERFUL four days!
Firstly crazy because I was rooming with elvis. Just JOKE-ing, elvis. You see, many times I caught elvis stomping around on my bed, talking to himself with his bible in hand.Also, on the last night, he started CRYING in his sleep! Actually he was laughing. It just sounded like crying. "Elvis! You okay not??"But he told me that he was laughing cos nobody understood what he was trying to say.That's why he said that God sent me. Because he needs someone to translate!
And wonderful because Sam and I went around solving all the bible questions, and as a result our two teams came out tops in the end. Crocs rock! Also, my angel abby was really nice. I had an experience in another church camp before that I never got anything from my angel at all..pfft..please guys, never let that happen. On to the spiritual side of things. I was amazed by having people hear the voice of God so clearly in their lives. Caleb told me, on the day that jacob received the Holy Spirit, that during morning prayer he felt God saying, "Go talk to Jacob." So caleb went and asked Jacob if he had received anything from God yet. NOT YET! SO caleb told him this, that Jacob would not walk away from this camp without receiving anything. True enough, Jacob was speaking in tongues during the afternoon service, and baptized in Jesus name ON THE VERY SAME DAY! Praise God!

Bryan - The full-of-crazy-ideas Gamemaster
Bryan Ong aka Bong is currently serving the nation. He enjoys playing soccer, eating supper and lying on his bed with a hot chocolate and oreo cookies by his side. He contains quite a large amount of lame and humour juices, therefore knowing him will expose you to high risk. Nonetheless, if you wish to lead an adventure life, feel free to call his hotline, or catch him in church on sundays, if he manages not to get any guard duties.
Alvin - The "Indian at heart"
I'm Alvin (a.k.a Alvin Van Der Sar). I really love sports, and am a freak about being healthy albeit eating 2 apples a day and lots of greens. Many people say i look old for my age(16) and the bus conductor has ever called me uncle, tts kinda scary. I love all things Indian and still greatly harbor a hope of being a missionary to India. I love the colour pink, love wearing facial masks, loves finding the cure to pimples. I hope to learn as many languages as I can( it's 6 and counting as of now). Last but not least, I love Jesus because He first loved me.
Cheryl - The Minute-Taker
Chirpy and chatty by nature, loves to smile & make friends within my habitat! ;) Butter-fingers and klutzy am I; passionate and zealous 'bout the King's business,so do I!!
Likes to spend time with me and myself, especially chilling out in a nice cafe,with great coffee and good music;a scenic view is icing on the cake!!
Makes a joyful noise all day long, a whiny sound when things go looney;
Plays the guitar to make merry & soothe the soul, and chats with the Lord to make it all okay!!
And i can't go to sleep without hugging my Pooh-bear pillow!
I love to sing and dance when I'm all ALONE in the house (:
And have a soft spot for cheesecake, dark chocolate and Gelare ice cream on a cone!

Charles - The Old Bird
i'm charles but you can call me "the cool-nerd"
I am a quiet person (most of the time anyway)
I enjoy playing computer games all day long and am a night owl.
When I do finally go to sleep I have to leave my music on throughout the night, because if it is too quiet I cant sleep.
I have a habit of talking to myself when nobody is at home. Also because it gets too quiet.
Kheng - The lets-make-everything-a-contest Marketer
You might recognise me as your friendly neighbourhood shutterbug/pest, hiding among the audi's seats and pouncing at every opportunity to capture that ONE snapshot. So the next time round you see me running about during events, please don't siam or be shy!
Here goes... "Training to be soldiers...Fight for our land..."
Well I figured that phrase was something I'd start off with because LTD 2007 is the one major thing which I would have participated in for the year before suffering from acute hair loss.
At the same time, since 2007 is the year of the Harvest, we gotta be constantly fighting for our nation, family and friends' Salvation.
On to the lighter stuffs, I love food, so foodies please drop me a holler. Love cooking because I feel that is is an amazing stress reliever, plus you usually get something to chomp down on after that (provided you don't burn anything).
As you can see I adore food and cooking; and if any of you Rockers want to cook up a storm, please please please come and tell me =).
