I should change the title of my blog to 'diary of a dragonboater'. It seems to be the only thing I update on nowadays. To be honest, last week's practice was brutal. Felt like puking afterwards. But this week was great, we've come a long way as a team. And I felt good during and after practice.
Fundraising at church today for our team. We sold bouquets of flowers for Mother's day. It was awesome to see God's providing hand. We sold out after the 1st service, and raised $13 000 in profits. People were so generous and supportive of us. Only need to raise another $10 000! Cookies and bookmarks for sale next week;)
The Watoto Children's Choir from Uganda visited our church today. The kiddies have all been orphaned by AIDS. Despite that, they're so sweet and happy. I had the chance to chat with them a bit, and am totally taken by the 6 year old Derek that has the brightest smile I've ever seen. A few other boys taught me some words in Ugandan? Cute, cute, cute. They even got the whole congregation on their feet and dancing! If they can sing and dance and praise God, then so much more should I.
