来週の土曜日チケットを買います。
ワクワクたまらないですね！
東京をゆっくり探ります。どこへ行くんだろうかな〜〜〜〜〜

It’s really early for the Lunar New Year, but frankly, it’s a very welcome break after 3 weeks of hectic school life. I had such fun with the family so far since sis is back for a short break before heading back to NZ.

A couple of snaps to show some productivity this week. I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s date with Matt’s mum (!!) and Shimizu-san. Making some connections! God is good!

And it’s Term 1 yet again. The cycle repeats itself like clockwork each year and this year is no different.

Except I’m with the 6-7 year olds again after a year.

Thankfully, they’re a good little lot, some a little chatty but nothing too extreme. God is good. It’s a welcome reprieve after last year’s grueling fiasco which was, according to certain folk, due to lack of firm discipline. I do wish to reiterate that it’s not due to the lack of trying!

What’s past is past and I’m nonetheless thankful for the experiences I had last year. I’m ready for new things, extraordinary things that God had in store for me!

Day 1 has been rather eventful I’d say. I didn’t realise how long I’d been on my feet until I sat down and got up again! Madness! Loving the little fellas.

Here they are in the hall, reading quietly.

最近仕事を続けたくない。もつまらないの。毎日何の為にこんなに忙しいんだ？バカよね。 (; ¬＿¬)

でも１２月すぐに来る。考えれば１２月はとても楽しい季節ですね！クリスマスとか、自分の誕生日とか。はは〜〜　すみませんね。誕生日のこと自分で発表しました！ (〃∇〃) てれっ☆

ラブ・ジャパンのプロジェクト今も続きます。教会の友達たくさん日本へ行きました。１２月はわたしの出番よ！楽しみ楽しみ！カップのデザインも完全しました。

今カウントダウンします。学期末だ！

I can’t remember the last time I seriously went knocking on doors in order to share the Good News. It’s been ages since I last did handbill saturation, where I would slip flyers for church events under the doors of HDB homes… secretly. And run away. ^^;

(This reminds me of the Gintama episode, with the Rastafarian con-artist.)

It’s different from sharing with friends and people who I already know, which I do quite often.

So this time, after a whole lot of procrastinating, I finally headed out with Sis Ros and left my inhibitions at home. Truthfully, I was still rather nervous. What would I say, what can I say, how should I say it?

Putting my hand to the plough in this case, was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done. It will probably remain one of the hardest things I will do this season.

It really began with the right block. We managed to speak at length with three different households, two of which took up 30-45mins! I was surprised because I was expecting a lot of hostility and door-slamming.

We did meet someone who was rather upset and grouchy, who told us off from within the living room. However, apart from that everyone was generally quite polite. How lovely!

I secretly think it was God pampering me.

I also met one of my friends from the recent elections and she quite happily told me which floor she was on. That was such a miracle, to catch her while she was making her way home. Fantastic!

So three contacts. And definitely a Christmas party in the works!
