UMA & JW

We helped UMA again consecutively for the past 4 days. We are shag, UMA is dead beat shag. We travelled alot on the road, all over Singapore literally. East (Tampines & Pasir Ris), West (Jurong West & CCK), North (Toa Payoh & AMK), Central (Bugis)! 

We ate lesser than the usual meals, slept much lesser than usual, laughed more than the usual, got scoldings more than the usual.

We even stayed over at the JW building to hook up, set up, pack up and not screw up. UMA laughed at me when I took a power nap (as suggested by Brian) at 4.30am yesterday, I dunno why either. Beats seeing him super duper stressed over every lil detail in all the AV rooms, his face so red with the blood furiously pumping to his brain. I always fear that one day he too stressed then -choy!- 爆血管* (burst blood vessel).

We, being me, Nicholas and Jemima, have seen and encountered all sorts of behaviours from UMA, and we have resolved to just laughing it off and to take absolutely NO offence at all. It's an art, I tell you. It ain't that easy as you think it is, alright?!

So back to JW during the weekend, we literally worked from 1pm on Saturday till Sunday 10.20am, excluding all the travelling to and fro earlier on! 

Things we did at JW: Stoning in between, whined and grumbled when asked to do work, talking and laughing like retards, playing Bible charades (Jemima's idea), packing lotsa boxes into the cramped storeroom, finding his spectacles and other tools lying around, having regular coffee breaks and getting annoyed scoldings from UMA. 

All these happenings yesterday were made possible with Jonathan and Brian's help, from R11/12. Their video team kids are so obedient to their leader, unlike ours =\ We got loads to learn from the discipline master of video, and to learn how to always tekan Samuel and the other naughty kids during duty and do 5 days long of video training liao.

We were so worried that everything will not be up in time for the morning service at 10.30am, but thank God we finished just in time!

Uncle Melvin, you are the MAN! Woo hoo~! You did it, with much suffering and very lil sleep for the past many months. Thank you for your selfless sacrifice of your time to VFC JW building. YAY! As quoted from Elijah's label sticker, "Uncle Melvin, Well Done!" 

3000 cheers for UMA!
