There was Unit Retreat on Friday night! It was a great time of fellowship, games, nonsense and (WOOT!) we even celebrated Tim's B'day! :)
After the BBQ, we had a "Barnabas and Paul" lots drawing! Hahaha. It is to choose our Pauls. In case you are wondering what is this game about, it is something like the "Angel & Mortal" game except that we made it more biblical. If you're wondering what's the link between Barnabas and Paul, they're shepherd and sheep. :) All of us will be a Barnabas (Angel) and we shall randomly pick our Paul (Mortal). So what next? Well, just as a Shepherd (Angel) will bless his/her Sheep (Mortal), so what we shall do is to take this time to just encourage and bless our Pauls! Hahaha. We'll be doing this from now til Uni camp! And so we have until then to guess who our Barnabas is! I do pray that my Barnabas is doing something for me. :) Hahaha.
This was followed by 3 games - Double Whacko, Mix & Match and Entertainment Night! I think the best among all these is the Entertainment Night game! We had to send people out from each group to do some role playing in a modernised setting and convince everyone what biblical character you are acting. Hahaha. And in the midst of this game lies a big fat plot! Wahahaha.. We actually made the last scenario one to transit into Tim's surprise celebration! Hahaha. What happened is that we planted some people to "sabo" the leaders so that all the leaders will have to act and thus try and 'come up' with a script such that Tim will have to say "It is finished!" and so the B'day cake will then make it's enterance! Wahahaha.. Brilliant right? Well, but things just don't turn out as well as we wish sometimes. Apparently he didn't exclaim "It is finished!". He just SAID "It is finished." and we all stared at each other. LOL! I think Eng Seng couldn't hear him clearly too hence he didn't bring out the cake. And all of us had to last minute improvise by looking dumb at one another and going "It is finished? It is finished? It is finished? It is FINISHED!!!" Then out came the cake with the B'day song! Hahahaha. You can try and imagine. It was really hilarious.
We then affirmed Tim and prayed for him. Got him a brown leather bag together with a scrap book full of lovely msgs from the Unit!!! ^^
Special thanks to Yen Ling, Si Hui, Corrina, Kat, Yan Yu, Michelle & Nettie for helping out with the food preparations. Couldn't have done it all without you gals. :) And thanks Man Mi for helping me out with the planning of the Unit retreat too. :) Last but not least, PHEW! I'm just glad that it's over. =P
