Reen here.

HI PEOPLE.
Apparently because the previous cell shirt design was too colourful,
it was said to be not possible to get it done,
so we could only have it in one colour, and also to save the cost of it.
so a new design was up(huijun edited the design cos my brain was not functioning anymore),
after she did so i came home to do up the designs.

Anyway, sorry eunice that your name is not like very aligned,
cos i was seriously very stressed up with your name! HAHA.
due to the sizing of the font, i cant seem to move it like accurately anymore.

and after much editing,
it ended up to look quite kiddish la i must say,
i guess probably the kids will love it a whole lot.
if you guys have any suggestions just say k?

cause we really dont have time to delay anymore...
cos last minute eleena told me that the cc service we're serving is NEXT WEEK.
so it's like very rushing for time,
and we gotta last minute do up a fast touch up and plan for a new design.

so kindly please vote and choose one okay!
we go by majority votes, apparently round neck&black shirt won, so there.
left the colours, and we would want to hear from everyone before we proceed to the ordering of the shirt.
cos you know, after that we still have to look at the size of a sample first,
and collate everyone's sizes to confirm all our orders.

so cooperation would be surely appreciated peeps, :)

okay so it's like, we have PINK, ORANGE, PURPLE AND BLUE.
SEE WHICH YOU PREFER AND IF YOU'RE FINE WITH IT.
the back of our shirts will be the one with Eleena's name,
all of our verses and colours and designs will be like that,
except names are different la (duh).

so there, MAKE YOUR CHOICE.
my eyes are blinded by so many colours while doing +.+

Good response for the Balloon Sculpturing Workshop last Sunday. The participants had a wonderful time.

updates on cell shirt

2009-03-31T11:30:00.002+08:00

(previous post and this are both posted by me shereen; so you can see i'm superbly free and bored)

we'll let eleena decide on whether should the shirt be black or white alright?
'cause she's the RL of our cell so she make the final decision :)
joshua will be in charge of ordering the shirt as he said he'll go back to his supplier again.
and in addition, i guess i would like to add on to the design of our shirt.
we'll add in "Preteens Ministry" somewhere on our shirt ok?
maybe at the sleeve or at some corner of the shirt,
and joshua added that we should put our cell's blog website with it too.
anyone who has any suggestions can bring it up too.
then we'll get this done as soon as possible :)

Cell shirt

2009-03-30T12:13:00.002+08:00

Hello everyone, shereen here :)

okay anyway, i have come up with a design for our cell shirt, which i will show you guys below.
if you think it's good then we'll go with it,
if you have any suggestions we can improve on it,
but if you have any objections then we'll do up another one.

alright, for the front design, it would be like that:

yeah, everyone of our names are there, and obviously, it's BigKids :)
however, if we want a black shirt,
then it would probably look like that:

and for the back of the shirt,
i would suggest something special.
we put our names behind our own shirt,
and below our names, we will each think of a bible verse that defines ourselves or a verse that we love, and state it under our names.
for example:
yup, how's that? :D
and overall, here's a preview of how it'd be like:
(CLICK TO ENLARGE THE PICTURE)

SO, LEAVE COMMENTS ON THE TAGBOARD! :)
if everyone agrees, then do tell me how you want your back shirt to be.
Eg, design and colour of your name and the verse!
i'll collate everyone's and pass it to the person in charge of ordering(dont know who).
and of course, i dont know how and where to order the shirt design,
so someone has do it ok! and for the type of shirt, we'll discuss it together as a cell again k? :)

When their new guardians forbid 16-year old Andi (Roberts) and her younger brother, Bruce (Austin) to have a pet, Andi has to use her quick wit to help find a new home for their dog, Friday. The resourceful kids stumble upon an abandoned hotel and using Bruce’s talents as a mechanical genius, transform it into a magical dog-paradise for Friday – and eventually for all Friday’s friends. When barking dogs make the neighbors suspicious, Andi and Bruce use every invention they have to avoid anyone discovering “who let the dogs in.”

GI CC Updates - 23rd - 29th Mar 2009‏

2009-03-25T15:13:00.000+08:00

Dear all,

I discovered that I have accidentally missed out some names so I am resending this mail. Recently the TV is flashing the flu-bug advertisement every other hour, so beware of the bug and take care that you don’t get bitten by the flu-bug. Already I know two persons who are sick because of the flu epidemic that is going on. I am not feeling well last two, three days also and I think it has to do with the bug as well. Remember to rest well and drink lots of water…

Personal Sharing:
Last few days I was reading Aristotle’s On Sleep and Waking which deals with the topic of sleep. It was interesting that he ended the treatise with this statement, “swvzei gar h; ajnavpausi~” which means “For rest saves (or heals)”. Interestingly, the word used in Genesis 2:3 “He (God) rested from all His work which God had created and made” for ‘rested’ is katapauvw, a synonym of ajnavpauw/ ajnavpausi~ (to cause to rest / rest). God sets the seventh day apart for men so that we can rest and re-create ourselves. This is how important rest is to each one of us. Aristotle emphasized on the effect of rest in his writing, but it is God in all His wisdom who knows that we, human beings, need to have rest so that we will not be exhausted and fall ill. We must have time for recreation in our week, so that we will be re-created. An article in Reader’s Digest March 2009 (Pg. 37) issue has this to say about sleep: teens having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep have the tendency to have blood pressure 4 points higher than teens who slept well. Those who slept less than 6.5 hours a night were 2.5 times more likely than those who slept longer to have elevated blood pressure. Can you imagine if this is what it will do to teens, what greater damage it will do to us, the recycled-teens? So, please take time to rest and go for your own recreation, and also to sleep.

Psalm 127:2, “In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat – for He grants sleep to those He loves.”

Announcements:
“Happy and Blessed Birthday!” to Judith Lee (25th, Befriender), May Lien (26th) and Christabella (29th). May the Lord’s goodness and lovingkindness follow you all the days of your life and may your life overflow with His blessings.

Teachers’ Training 2: Balloon Sculpturing
Date: 29th March (Sunday)
Time: 1.30pm (Lunch provided); Actual program: 2pm – 4pm
Venue: GI, Level 1 Hall
Thanksgiving:
We thank God for:
The successful execution of the ABM and we managed to cover all the issues within the three hours.

Prayer Pointers:
Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. Romans 12:15.
Kim Mui’s mother – continuous healing for the fractured ankle and bacteria infection.
May Lien – wisdom to handle her work as her boss is away and not to be stressed up.
Aileen Yeo – the neurologist can find the cause and give the right treatment to the weakened nerve.
Christabella – skin condition (itchiness and spreading to other area), cardiologist to do a correct diagnosis when she goes for checkup.
Clement Yee – doc says ligament torn will need an op. pray for healing and repair of the ligament.
Valery – seeking direction. Pray God will lead her and give her clear direction.
Suzanne Loh – pray for son, Edwin, to find a perm job.
James Yee – travelling to Shanghai.
Pray for our teachers and pastors that we will have strong body with good immunity. Pray for the new Church Board that they will be sensitive to God’s guidance and wisdom to make wise decision for the church.

I will give thanks to the Lord according to His righteousness and will sing praise to His name.

R-AGE PUSH

2009-03-25T15:11:00.000+08:00

Here's the EPush for today with my request to be forwarded to the RLs.

1. Please pray for N (Joanna's friend) whose mother passed away fromkidney failure last week - pray that God's love will be with them andthat He will provide for their needs (family not Christian)

2. Please pray for T (someone Joanna met, family not Christian) whohas been charged for crime. Pray that his family will be able to copefinancially after bailing him out and that he and his friends willcome to know God's love.

hello all! firstly, can we leave our names in our blog entries so that i know who posted that entry? cause sometimes it confuses me and i don't know if it's posted by eleena or shereen. thanks. next, i'm back from my cca expedition and since i have time, i decided to post a short blog entry here! =)

now that half of my march holidays are gone which is wisely spent, i'm going to spend the rest of my time doing uncompleted work. about the t-shirt design, i agree that we should do it together. i think it will be easier to brainstorm on ideas and then perhaps get someone/a few of us to do the design. hopefully, we can get a nice cool t-shirt design as soon as possible!

yup, so i'll be looking forward to seeing all of you soon and not forgetting our first cell lunch after combined service this sun! =)

love, jud

2009-03-19T11:07:00.002+08:00

Hello friends,

apparently i have no idea on what to do for our cell shirt,
does anyone have any ideas or what would you think would be nice?
i don't know when is the latest we're supposed to finish it,
because for all i know producing the order needs some time too.
so let's just get things done as soon as possible?

anyway, i don't know but is only drawing the only possible way?
can't it be done through computer? Lol.

and i don't think the design competition is like carrying on anyway,
so let's just do TOGETHER LA.
hahaha! :)

2009-03-18T11:14:00.002+08:00

Dear all,
Great to find myself alive again this morning … another day, another opportunity to serve the Lord. Isn’t it great to be able to serve the Lord each day of our lives knowing that He is always there to help us and assist us when we face challenges that are too big for us? Encourage you to be like David to trust in the Lord to face the Goliaths that come your way.

I was at the Zoo yesterday morning. I went with some people and they commented that the place is unlike the Malaysian zoo which smells. Our Zoo does not smell of animal waste…but over there you can smell it even at the entrance. The animals and the enclosures are all well kept and clean. The animals look good and healthy to the visitors. The Zoo, I think, works very hard to present the pretty side to the visitors. All the ugly side is dealt with in the secret places, out of the sight of the visitors. The Zoo can look beautiful only if the Zoo keepers have taken care of the animals in the ‘secret chambers’.

This gives me the thought of how important it is to have our daily devotions. Devotions are like the ‘secret chamber’ in the Zoo where the animals are cleaned and getting ready for the day to meet the multitudes of visitors in their best. If we are to spend time with God before we begin the day, I believe we will be more ready to face the day. The Psalmist wrote, “But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength; yes, I shall joyfully sing of your lovingkindness in the morning, for You have been my stronghold and refuge in the day of my distress. (59:16)” If we remind ourselves of God’s lovingkindness and His strength available to us, I think we can face the day better. I encourage you to go before God daily before you step out of your house for work or study. Let us get our ‘animals’ ready to face the world: (1) Meditate on God’s goodness, lovingkindness, and strength (Eph 1:19) for the day, (2) deal with any negative emotions or thoughts you have or anticipate you will have for the day, (3) pray for the people you will be working with that day, and (4) pray for God to help you handle the stress and challenges for the day. Before you enter the office, take a deep breathe, and smile, then step into the office and decide to be joyful in the Lord no matter what happen. Try it and let me know if it helps.

2009-03-09T11:15:00.003+08:00

Yo.

i know the photo is super blur...perhaps the photo size is too small or something..
but NO WORRIES, we have like ample chances of taking another picture again! :D
i just wanna faster upload A PHOTO up here so it can be officially UP for everyone :)

and apparently, there is no much difference between the first photo and this second one,
but i thought we looked nicer as a cell in the second photo so i chose that instead.
and yuhui, eunice and yingyian are absent in the picture,
so let's hope that they would be in the picture the next time when we take again.

toodles!

leave comments on the tagboard & anything else you wanna say or suggest k!
&btw, the links are just being put there to occupy some space. haha!
those who have blogs link yourselves up too alright :D

2009-03-06T13:00:00.000+08:00

HELLO EVERYONE :D
this is officially the first post for this blog!
alright, i'm going to teach our dear eleena how to blog,
so she can post up and keep this blog alive everytime!
for those who know, good! :D
but for those who doesnt, take this chance to learn a new thing this year! :)

Yes, so firstly, log on into www.blogger.com :

then, sign in using user name and password,
(i will give you the user name and password through email)
once signed in, you'll see something like that:

right, then click on NEW POST to start to blog!
it will look like:

so just type whatever you want inside the space,

and do rmb to click on the Post Options above the word Publish Post to edit your time and date.
after finishing, click PUBLISH POST.

and thereafter you will see this page:yes done, BUT do remember to SIGN OUT,

which is at the top right hand corner of the page,
so that other cell members can log in!

Yup, have fun exploring people!
if you have any questions feel free to ask anyone who knows(or me!) :D

okay next thing,
i would like to let all of you know the meaning with regard to the birth of our blog.
as you can see, our url is "bkid-me-not".
in case any of you are wondering what on earth is that, let me enlighten.
since we're BigKids, so the BKID is there.
actually it was supposed to be kid-me-not,
meaning that we are not a kid but yet a big kid(so the contrast is there, see?)
and therefore added a 'b' infront of 'kid'. TADA :D
but of course, if anyone has better suggestions we can change it too!
no problem with that :)

and also, you can see that this page is colourful in a way...
i used different colours for each and every column to add colours to this blog!
(although im someone who prefers devoid haha!)
so yes...that's that.
if anyone of you wants the font to be changed just let me know too!

right, so anything can be posted up here from anyone and everyone.
like for example, eleena could post up weekly stuffs like she did in the emails,
others can post up some words to encourage one another,
or share some devotionals or verses,
or if you have anything that you wish to share with anyone you can also post it up here!

yup....that's all folks! :D
