snowboarding ROCKS!

The title speaks for itself! I went Mt Buller again with my cell group over here and this time I went snowboarding with Bryant, Sarah, Dan and Esther. We took the chairlift right away to get to our lesson midway up the mountain, but discovered that we had missed it and the next one was in an hour. We were quite adventurous and decided to have a go at it ourselves and managed to get the feel of it during the first run. We were so excited and had another go where we improved a lot and didn't fall as much. And so we decided to skip the lesson and just board ourselves!

We were really enjoying ourselves and even skipped lunch to spend more time on the snow! We also went up right to the top where I had the not so plesant experience the other time. But this time with the snowboard, it was actually much better and I got to enjoy the journey down. We went up to the top a couple of times too.

It was a really good trip and I'm tired! Going to bed now!

Photos!

Hi Benedict and all,
Here are some photos of us in Gold Coast and Melbourne. Because Benedict put up a plea for someone to help him upload photos, I answered. I am sorry, Benedict, that I may have invaded your privacy. I being a very intelligent girl, hacked into your blog wahahahaha. Anyway, I totally enjoyed my time with you and I miss you alot. Seeing these photos again, gave me much joy. See you soon, dearie.


Eunice, me and some superheros! MovieWorld


Me with Porky Pig. It was raining so we (Eunice and I) were both wet and cold.



Batwing!



The Batwing ride! Scary! Beside that is the Superman ride, but it was closed as it was raining.



Eunice with a colourful taxi in MovieWorld.

Eunice touching a sea cucumber at Sea World. Gross! I declined to touch it even though she said it was velvety and nice.

It's the Queensland Grouper. It can grow up to 3m and 500kg!!!

At Wet 'N Wild. See me sliding down the slide head first! Awesome!


I cooked dinner while Eunice built a drawer. She says I'm a good cook! Role reversal alert!


Eunice building a drawer. She's good with her hands!


Krispy Kremes! They are delicious and wicked coz they are so sweet!

Rose came by to visit Melbourne and us!

Skiing!

At Mount Buller, skiing.

On the Melbourne Eye ferris wheel.

Eunice makes me stand at ugly trees and cati coz she tells me the contrast makes my natural beauty stand out. So how come she gets to stand with flowers?

Eunice: I love this photo of Ben. It's a candid shot. He looks pleasantly surprised and gentle. Thus I conclude that that's the look of love, pleasure at seeing the one you love.
Isn't Eunice pretty? I totally think so.

Me and Eunice at the Botanical Garden's Southern China Garden.

the importance of prayer

As the song goes:

Read your bible, pray everyday,
Pray everyday, pray everyday.
Read your bible, pray everyday,
And you'll grow grow grow!

Prayer is important! It is being in the presence of God. Spending time sharing and fellowshipping. It is so important to pray and I need to do more of it!
