Gosh I remembered last year I was nervous about SPM and now it's all gone gone gone gone gone
Sorry I haven't been active here. I lost my passion for blogging for quite a while. I am the type that just doesn't want to do anything when I am feeling stressed. And you know the stress that comes with exams. And it lingers with you for weeks after the exam was long over.
Besides SPM, one of the highlights of 2013 for me was a 10-day camp organised by SU and FES that I went to called d' Nous Academy. Basically, this camp's purpose is to train young Christians to become young thinkers through the training and discipline of the heart, mind and spirit (the Greek word "Nous" is defined as the heart, mind and spirit altogether). Interested? This camp has some heavy intellectual stuff. But the wonderful thing is we learn how to connect our classroom learning with our daily lives by engaging with the community around us - going to Nursing Homes or Centers for the disabled to connect with them, understand them and to be there for them, although it may be hard to understand them from our point of view. This camp has three stages that is spread out over three years. So every year is a different stage...and then the cycle repeats. I've been attending this camp for three years and have met amazing friends who have encouraged me to keep building a relationship with God and with the people I meet around me. This camp is pretty tiring mentally and physically and emotionally (I was very blur during my first year there) but the experiences we had there were unforgettable. YOu can find out more here :
I've reached my word limit. Sort of. Ciao
