2nd and Last Day of VBS!!!!!!!!!!!

VBS ended today!!!!!!!!!!! So fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm already missing it...=) lol...it's really fun this year...AWESOME FUN!!!!!!!!!! =)

Did puppets today, hopefully it was okay...=D I couldn't see myself though...=) So I don't know if I was okay or not... But anyway, this morning I asked Levi for the script! XD...So I definitely did better than in Sunday's rehersal...=) Because at least I know the script roughly...only thing was, it wasn't stated very clear on the script when I'm supposed to exit...=) hahaha...anyway, Jadon had to tell me...=)

Memory Verse station was CRAZEEEEEEEEEE today!!!!!!!!!!!! It was sooooooo hard to handle the two younger groups!!!!!!

Duku Langsat: 5-6 year olds
Cilli Padi: 7-9 year olds
Buah Mangis: 10-12 year olds

So Buah Mangis, they know how to keep quiet because they are so old already, and besides, they know that they can gain more points if they keep quiet...so they're too smart that's why they always know how to keep quiet, all because of the points.

In that sense, I pity the younger ones. They're too small to know all these things, and besides, you don't expect all of them to sit down quietly do you? That's ridiculous...=)

Anyway, the Duku Langsats were all roudy. Also because today, before they came to our station, they had games first. So they were all in a "wild" mood...=) That made it even worse...had a hard time getting them to settle down..and in fact, I think they didn't even settle down!

To make it worse, some green curtains were hung up on a metal string thingy on the wall. And it suddenly DROPPED DOWN on Caleb and a small boy!!!!!! hahahahaa...that was HILARIOUS...but I expected it any time...the kids always pull it, play with it, hide behind it...how not to drop down? =)

After that, the kids rushed to it, and started playing with it and we had to keep them away from it while it was fixed up again! THAT WAS HARD. hahahaha...it was kinda of like of no use, and I was kinda of tired with all the noise in that small room, I decided to just sit down and let them go crazy!

Rachel came and plopped herself on my lap...and we entertained each other along with Annie...=)

Phew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So today, we didn't even bother to teach the Duku Langsats the memory verses...because it will be of no use. So the second time for today, when they came into our station, it was like PLAYLAND for them. Or rather, CRAZY NOISY LAND!!!!!!!!!! =)

We tried playing Simon Says with them but it lasted for only awhile, after that, somebody had this really BRILLIANT idea of getting one of the puppets and entertaining them. Oh, it did work!!!!!!!! =) That was a relief!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okie, I've been talking about the Duku Langsats too much...=)

Anyway, today I had fun, also sleepy at times, but, well...I really had a good time!

Took some pictures...

VBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I woke up this morning, I couldn't believe that it was really VBS DAY!!!!!!!!! It seemed so far away and suddenly it was today!!!!!!!! Goodness!!!!!!!!!!

Had fun today, real fun...except that I'm really POOPED now...=(

I was involved in the singing time, memory verse, and tomorrow I'm helping with the puppets...I really hope I won't make a disaster out of it...=) I don't know the script that well...=( Have to get Levi to show them to me tomorrow...sigh...

Memory Verse Station is pretty hard as the kids aren't really that enthusiastic about it....=( It's quite hard to get them to be more 'gala' and to enjoy it more...=) Not to mention, we have to come out with some entertainment to while away the extra time we have... we always finish our memory verses so quickly! hehe..

SAW MICHI, SUE ANNE, AND RACHEL TODAY!!!!!!!!!!! WEEEEEE!!!!!!! It's been a long time since I last saw them!!!!!!!! =)

Rachel, Raewyn, and Lee Rui were all crawling over me, sitting on me, and etc...hehe...all fighting to sit on my lap...lol....=)

And there's another boy who also will join them, I know I've seen him before, maybe he came for last year's VBS...yea...come to think about it, I think he was the one who also came to me last year and started playing with me...=)

OH I JUST LOVE KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hehe...

Oh and we did the 5-A Rap today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was fun...Uncle Ian put on some rap-ish rythm music...=)

This is how it goes:

Admit, I'm it. Broke the bond that's tightly fit. Apologize, tell no lies. I hurt you, I recognize. Accept, gladly kept. A consequence I won't forget. Ask you, fore we're through--Forgiveness..what I need from you. Alter now, this is how...God change my heart please do it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope I got it correct though...=) hehe...there are some 'dance moves' to it...=)

Anyway, last day of VBS tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope it'll be fun...but it's kinda of sad because tomorrow is already the last day...=(

I have to remember to take pictures tomrrow...=)

zzzzzzzz

Training? No, Rehersal...

Instead of a training today, it was actually a rehersal for the main part of the VBS. The puppets and skits...=)

Levi asked me if I wanted to do puppets, so I said okie I guess...hahaaa...but it was a DISASTER...=) Because I also didn't know the scripts well, and yea...=)

I really need to look at them tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!! Luckily I'm only doing for Tuesday...=)

Anyway, it's going to be two long tiring days I guess...

Though I can't wait too, because SUE ANNE, MICHI AND RACHEL ARE ALL COMING!!!!!! WEEEEEEEE haaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!! lol...except lil is missing...=((((

zzzzzzzzzz

Charissa

AWESOME-LY

TRANING WAS AWEEEEEEESOOOOOMEEEEEEEEEEE today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was sooooooo fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tried Puppetry today...it looks easy but it's actually very tough...=D You have to concentrate on so many things at the same time...

The script, (and we weren't familar with it) how you move the mouth, how high you put your puppet, what type of emotions and movements, and so many other things!!!!!!!!! It was really crazy!!!! hahahaha....

We learned how to enter and exit properly, and how to move the mouths and stuff like that... It was really fun!!!!! But my hand inside the puppet was soooooooooooooooooo SWEATY because it's so tight and hot inside!!!!!!!!!!! =(

The funniest thing happened...

My sis tried out for puppetry...and it was totally HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!

What happened was this:

My sis, at first played 3 different puppet parts with her one puppet...because she wasn't used to it I guess, so she thought that she has to move her mouth like everytime...sometimes the brain works funny...=) But after awhile she didn't do that anymore...=D

Next, after she finished "talking" her puppet's mouth will be kept OPEN!!!!!!!! That was the main thing that made us laugh, and she didn't realize it...=D

Louisa, Annie, and I were the main ones laughing, along with some of the others, but Louisa and I definitely had a laughing fit!!!!!!!!!!! =D

I tried out a puppet, but I made a whole disaster out of the first solo part I had to do...the thing was, my paper script dropped down, and by the time it was put up again, I lost track of where it stopped, and yea...so that was a disaster...

But according to my Sis and Sarah, they said the next one was so nice...=D lol, I'm not being perasan, I'm just saying what they said...=D Or rather they said it was COOL....=D

Anyway, another training after church tomorrow!!!!!!! Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!! =)

Will be one of those up there doing actions tomorrow for church... =)

Zzzzzz
