Merdeka di Telaga
Have been doing some reading together with Raffly on Romans (in Malay) and personally for me, also this commentary. Sproul is really something.
Anyway, I hope to spur this student to read his Bible as much as possible, to understand it and grow spiritually with the knowledge and fear of the Lord. My first attempt at mentoring. So far, we've covered Luke and Acts, and now we're in Romans (which is a really tough book, some more in MALAY!).
Please pray for us.
Ok, so I haven't blogged lately. When I tell you what happened during Merdeka, you'll know why.
So what have I been up to?
For the past one and a half months, we've been busy with the Sports Carnival, everyday is just one match of one game after another. Craziest and longest Sports Carnival ever, I think.
And then, the climax of the entire event happens on Merdeka Day. We started our 31st with...
Merdeka Aerobics! Then...

Merdeka Run!
And then, after that we had tarik-tali and sukaneka before prize giving. Loads of fun in the sun, before a sudden storm hit us and we had to move into the Great Hall.

It wasn't bad all in all. We emerged 3rd out of 5 groups. And we were football champions and volleyball runners-up (both boys and girls). It was a good month altogether.
Then in the afternoon, was the MERDEKA CONCERT, organised by the Form 3s and Form 5s.

Which Merdeka Concert would not be complete without the good ol' Tanggal 31 song?
Then the Form 3s came up with their routines:



Songs, Sumazaus and Jogets.
The Form 5s were next. They did Akademi Fantasia ala Telaga. Not bad at all.

The 7 pelajar AF Merdeka.

They even had their own 'Aznil', their own 'pengkritik', all the 'kezutans' and even the AFUNDIs! Students were given a chance to vote for the most popular singer.
As always, I was in the best place of all... the background scene.
I really love stage managing.
So, anyway, that's what we've been busy with these past few weeks, along with classes, extra classes, and preparations for exams (which are just around the corner!).
This month?
Trial exams, completing syllabi, preparing students for exams. Among the grueling things about to come.
After PMR activities (Form 3 annual concert!), Hari Raya celebrations, Prize Giving Day, SCHOOL HOLIDAYS!
Will be going to Sibu this Raya hols to visit a friend there.
Will be climbing Mount K (yes, finally!) with 2 students. Need to start training, and getting rid of my slight fear of heights.
You know, I've been feeling a little homesick lately. Maybe I have been away from home for a bit too long.
Oh, well. Maybe I'm just tired.
Blessed Merdeka. |
