Last Saturday, I went to the Wild Wild Wet!!!
It was my first time. In celebration of Family Day by my dad's office, he bought tickets. I went together with my family (too bad my mom couldn't go due to working), my aunt and her son, my 2 cousins and their friend, my siblings' chinese tuition teacher and her son. Altogether, there were 11 of us.
We were one of the first families to arrive and the gates were not even open yet. But once the gates were open, we rushed in excitedly and couldn't wait to get started. First, we went on board the SkyRider. It is a monocycle (something like 2 bicycles stuck together) and you have to pedal to get it moving, on the short trail that is a few feet above ground around this water theme park. It gives you a bird's eye view and is easier to plan where to go first after one short round of cycling.
Then we went for Ular-lah which is a six-seater raft ride. That was GREAT! Followed by The Waterworks, long tube slides. The most thrilling attraction for me was the Samsung Slide Up. It is like those skate board ramps thingy, that can be very tall and steep. But instead of using boards, a pair had to get into those 2-seater raft thingy and slide down.
However, I enjoyed the Shiok River more than the rest. You just grab one of the inflatable tubes that are provided, sit on it, and relax, going with the current round and round the "river". It was a fun time! Thank God it rained when we were taking our lunch, and not in the morning, like the weather forecast predicted. If not, I think that the rain would have ruin some of our fun.
All good things have to come to an end! That was what everyone might just be thinking when we left the park at 2.30pm, but in my opinion, the "good things" have just started ... ...
For after Wild Wild Wet, my sister, my 2 cousins, their friend, and I immediately headed down to Church to join our friends for a time of fellowship in cell. Whoa! We played lots of interesting games that afternoon, and we planned for... ...

CELL OUTING!!!
It is going to be held this Friday and I am looking forward to it. Why? (you asked?!) Coz, this will be my first cell outing. The previous cell outing I was unable to make it due to CCA commitment, and the rest of the outings before that, either I could not make it or I was not interested to go.
(Believe it or not, I was actually too shy to go that's why I avoided cell outings. Don't ask me why I was like that, coz I don't know)
Anyway, I am looking forward to this trip. Hope to get to know those in my cell better.
(coz I don't really know them very well unlike my cousin. Took me quite a while to even know all their names. My cousin was so shocked.)
Anyway, that Saturday we had an empowering time during service, after cell. We came together embracing the same vision. We were united in wanting to carry out God's plan. We were ready to give, and believing that our Jehovah Jireh will provide and bless. And as we as one body in Christ come together, each doing their part in faith, we pledged more than $2m (or so I heard). And that is only for 1 service. I cant wait for this Saturday where they would tell us the total amount by the whole church. Isn't God incredible, the way he works through men?!
