OA Retreat Nostalgia

Since it has been lingering around in my phone for a week already, I thought I might as well thrash it out here for everyone to see. This is just one activity of OA - part of Games. Very simple, we were at the erm Shah Alam Lake something for picnic and this game requires us to snap pics together with a list of objects which are located everywhere along the fairly extensive lake park. But meh, eventually this game was abandoned (no points or pictures submitted in the end) or else I thought it could have contributed quite a lot to our shy little group. :)

Too lazy to arrange the pictures in order, so I'll just explain each of em' accordingly. Have fun being amused for the next few minutes! :D

erm this is flag pole. we came out with a so to say 'pyramid' shape.
so i did the 'pointy' part at the top. lol-ness

after some time of persuasion (aka deceit), we managed to
snap a pic of Billy and Alyssa. this is under Fountain. hehee, creative leh! swts.

Bridge. Very simply, Billy is trying to bunuh diri (think TVB bunuh diri scenes).
"lei bei ngo sei lah, mou zho ju ngo!" "mou ah mou ah mou sei ahhh!"

Lamppost!

the fragrant 'tong sampah' i managed to coax David into posing with it hahh.
im such a manipulator, likeee

say Hi to Niza!

erm i'd rename it as 'the thirsty waterfall' because we cant seem to find one drop of water

the conventional water pump together with emo-fied David Ho.
realise something? me and david took most of the shots...
sorryy, most of the others are not as 'tatau malu' as we are.

right at the last seconds, we took the final one, 'Giant logo'.

It might not be the most joyous and comfortable camp, but the sacrifice we are willing to contribute for the good of our fellow brothers and sisters eliminates any kind of dissatisfaction. In return, we learn to be happy even outside our comfort zones, because we have done something worth it.

I do really hope the OA guys and girls - young in age, young in faith - took home a little bit of something from the Retreat, which will help enhance their spiritual inventory and armour. We hope to have another chance to play a part in their lives and see them transform into good and faithful servants of our Lord Jesus Christ. Whatever negativity they face in school, while at the hostel, when interacting with friends, or anywhere, we hope their faith remain.
