Hectic 2 weeks and about NOC 3

Today is the first day of class...was quite ok..business as usual...

It has been a pretty busy two weeks after the PS conference. NOC 3: A Time to Love is on the 6th of Jan 2005, with a budget of rm 8000. We had some fundraising assignments throughout the week.

We painted Bethel Church in a span of two days and averaging about 13 workers a day from morning till evening...those who sacrificed their time to come back to melaka to help out...george, joel, jonathan, grace, sam yau, deric, edmund, belle...as well as the melakan ppl me, justin, seong, wei and vj. I painted my entire room before, so i kinda knew that it was gonna be really tiring. Bethel gave rewarded us with a good hospitality, lunch, tea break and the funds we needed...at the end of the Wednesday and Thursday project, we were all drained out...

We also went to New Life church to minister and expose the people about NOC, sold our T-shirts and OSTs...we had pretty good feedback frm them.

i think it benefited us that we actually met the churches and the met us...it kinda strengthened whatever rapport we had with them.

The following week was filled with practises for the big day with a majority of the cast and crew back for the one week intensive training. This year, my band PG165 with an additional guest keybordist and pianist are playing live for this year's musical play...so we have been rather busy with this assignment. We practised everyday from the 13 of Dec till now. In fact, there will be rehearsals scheduled till 6th Jan...it has been fun practising although tiring and stressfull at times...it was nice to see rebecca and wee liem down for a few days...

Overall, the anticipation is beginning to build up for NOC 3. I'm personally getting excited about it. I believe that it's gonna be a success and that the message of Christmas will be resonating this year through our third installment of NOC. This years musical play will feature new stuff, more songs, more dances and choreographed stuff that you must see...

Everyone's invited to it. It will be held at MMU Main Hall on the 6th Jan 2005 at 7.30 pm.... Admission is free.
