A little something for every single one of you:
Char - You're simply amazing. You spur me on to love all my friends, no matter how much they stretch your heart. You make time for them and you strive to build relationships that last and.. you've never felt that a friend should be discarded because God always has a reason for putting him/her in our lives. You've been there for me through it all, and you understood my heart and I'll always love you for acknowledging how weird everything felt for me during the start of camp.. You're someone I'll always want to be accountable for my actions to and you fulfilled your promise - you told me when I was starting to get bitchy. I want to keep you as my best friend forever and ever. You let me see Jesus in you, Char. The way he strives to love every person that crosses our paths in life and I'm freaking glad I'm in yours. To have your friendship is really.. like having gold. I felt like I was on top of the world when I saw you laugh and smile genuinely after everything subsided at camp.. It was awesome, I'm serious, to know that God had brought us out of the desert and He had filled our hearts with such joy, and it really shone through you :) When we were having that talk in the room with our youth leaders, I saw you laughing and it was really.. heartwarming. I couldn't ask for more and that night I thanked God that you felt happy all over again! Char, we've gone through so much together and we'll go through more in years to come! Pssst! I really want to have more heart-to-heart talks with you and I'm always an SMS away okie :) Lots of love harmaine cong! :)
Cara - When I said I didn't care about our friendship anymore, the Spirit said "NO YOU DO, YOU JUST CAN'T SEE IT." And its true. When I hugged you that very afternoon crying and telling you I didn't mean anything I said, it was true. The very last night of camp when you asked if I hated you, it just broke my heart because I knew deep down I didn't. I guess I didn't know you for who you were because I haven't really seen who you are. But after camp, you got yourself back again. (yes it's another vibe) The feeling of seeing you being who you once were, laughing like you really mean it is AMAZING okay. I'm gonna be here for you and I promise I won't shut you out again. I promise!!! It's not worth shutting you out because somehow you understand me in a way that I never thought you did. Don't let that person bring you down and trust that all of us will be here - and we won't let you crumble. When I heard from Char that you said church was like a haven for you, it really touched me. Because that's how much you appreciate every single one of us, even me. I won't take advantage of the fact that you need me to backfire against you because Rah, I realised I need you+all six of us too. I don't care about being needy anymore - we're all pieces of each other and I must tell you this because that person who has brought you down is just like us: Human! Nothing higher and nothing greater. I love you loads Cara, for loving and forgiving me for everything I've said and done. 'eh fatteh wanna go home?' hahaha yes i wanna go home hahahaaa
Mirabelle - Aih! "inserts heyhey2 emoticon" Hey Belle. I felt your prayer on the very last night and I know that you don't mean to look at me the way I think you do. I understand that sometimes you just don't know what you're feeling. It's just a whole load of mixed emotions I guess Belle. I know how tired you get, just like every single one of us. But don't give up this race, not just yet. It's not our time to :) You understand me too and it's awesome how our craziness is so compatible. You represent the bubbly side of me Belle and you'll always be a part of me - I don't ever want to lose it. We were supposed to talk things out during camp and we did, through that prayer we had on the last night. I'll always be here and I'm just really sorry if I get a little moody and insensitive sometimes. I promise I won't use my period as an excuse to reject you if you really need me and I'll be patient when you feel this way too. Love you Belle :) I swear over mac&cheese.
Joseph - You are. So, so selfless, Jo. So, so selfless. You kept trying to drill facts and truths into my head that very night at camp even if I was in such stubborn denial. You're so awesome, Jo. I love you loads man. I can't ever forget the way you were trying so hard to be the mediator. And you're not useless, Jo. You never will be. You're such a precious friend and brother-in-Christ to me and you are like Char, Belle, Cara, Lawrence and Lime to me - you're my cornerstone. You build me up. When I was at my weakest, there you were with Char and Lime. There you were. And that's all that really matters. I appreciate you for the reason that you like Char - because you're sensitive. I don't know how to put all this that I feel about our friendship in words but I'll say, it's so, so worth building. You're a porn model foreva :)
Daniel - It's so funny calling you by name, Lime-y. That night when you laid your hand on me while I was praying and struggling to speak... I'll never forget it. Just having you there with me told me that it was okay to cry, and that you accepted whatever I was going to tell God. Having you there with me reading the Bible at 5 in the morning.. woah. I guess your physical limit was stretched but you told me that you weren't tired (ok maybe you really weren't) but you should've been sleeping then and just having that half an hour with such a giving friend like you was priceless. Thanks for doing little things for me, always offering to help and for being funny and random.. really.. for just being you. Whatever, being girly is cool okay Lime. Anyway you're gonna grow to be a man of Him, Lime, you're so going to. I still hate salty miso soup hahaha
Lawrence - Just watching you worship is amazing. You're in such a state of surrender that motivates to question myself about the motives of why I worship and what I'm living for. Lawrence I treasure you as a brother-in-Christ, I really do, I meant what I said on the hotel phone even if I sounded 'act-cute-ish'. Ahahah and you're always being honest and true; you're not afraid of expressing how you feel and not afraid of telling others how beautiful they really are. You're amazing, Lawrence. I just pray that God will continue using your entire family to do great works for His Kingdom. I really do hope to grow closer to you as time passes too, Lawr. The way Char is so tightly knitted to you, I don't want to be a loose end either. Love you punkie :)
Gabriel - OMG I can't get over your German accent. It's freaking hilarious :) It's awesome having you around Gabriel. Somehow you're someone whom I can open up to and I feel really comfortable around you. Keep that fire burning for God, Gab, stay hungry for more and more of Him. God has put you in our lives as a blessing and a reminder that we should learn to accept everyone for who they are. And who cares - just wear your cowboy hat if you wanna. Because it's only you :)
