Remiscence: The Tristantos

2 girls. 4 guys. 1 band. The Tristantos!

Reminiscence: prayer meet

Semester 1 2008. These were challenging times for OCF AU. So a few of us decided to have prayer meet every morning. 

After that we would head off to David Jones for brekkie...

I seriously need to learn how to be dependent on God again, to the extent of seeking Him first thing in the morning. Iron sharpens iron; the journey made worthwhile, with like-minded brothers and sisters in Christ.

The Web

The web can be used to do almost anything these days

Edit images...

Make Mindmaps...

Plan the week...


To do lists...


Notetaking...

No need for paper. Don't need to worry about losing your USB. Don't need to carry heavy files full of notes everywhere. Seriously if the Internet fails one day (an undersea optic fibre cable snaps somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean) I won't need to do ANYTHING.

Yet another surprise birthday...

Thursday night 11pm. Katrina had a long day and was pretty tired. Suddenly I got a call from Norman: 'Make sure she doesn't fall asleep! Give her a call or something, we're coming to your place right now'.

So I did: 'Hey Kat, I'm just going to ask Adrian what time Catholic church service starts so your father can go this sunday, but I can only do that after his quiet time. So don't sleep yet ya. I'll talk to you on Facebook.

Because Erwin, Huey Chi and I were already on the way to Kat's place the Facebook conversation didn't happen. It was now Caleb's turn to keep Katrina awake. So they chatted online and he made up this wild story about getting evicted.

Gotta give it to Caleb for great acting skills. By the time we arrived he was still acting, outside Kat's door. Kat was too busy paying attention to notice someone coming up her door; Norman with birthday cake...

 Gotta love James' face!

Midnight birthday surprise. Parents coming over. Still 19. What more could a birthday girl want?

Best BS Group Outing Ever

Last Friday after OCF, I saw this on Facebook.

Penny wasn't coming to the BS group lunch because she would be working. So the next day at Primo Cafe, Jacq, Joel, Jonathan, Amos and I discussed plans on how to change her Facebook status...

Sunday. Jonathan picked Penny up from hospital at 7pm, as planned. He told Penny he was collecting stuff at my place and needed her help. Meanwhile, Amos bought the cake and magic candles. He came over to my place early to light the candles...

Penny came up to my apartment, opened the door and...

Her prayers were answered...

This was followed by an AB dinner at Blue and White Cafe. We had lamb, her favourite...

Back to my place again for cake cutting. While Penny was being entertained, Amos, Jonathan, Joel and Jacq took turns logging onto Facebook, uploading pictures of Penny from their phones and cameras, tagging, and writing on Penny's wall. We hoped to bomb the news feed so that when her friends logged on all they could see was Penny Penny Penny Penny Penny...her wall would be so happening and the number of tagged pictures of her would explode overnight...

Mission Accomplished:

This is what OCF is all about. And it all starts with the BS Group =)

Life after assignments...

Thanks to a certain someone, I feel compelled to update more often...

But once again, depends on how I feel =)

Had 5 assignments due last Friday. So last week was one of my more anti-social moments...

They were major assignments. So certain sacrifices had to be made. No drum lessons. No Korean BBQ. No Gears of War.

Glad I made those sacrifices. Because the presentation on Friday was AWESOME.

How did I celebrate? By going back to a normal life. On saturday, resumed guitar and drum practice. Went back to gym. Had a BS lunch where we organised a surprise party for Penny. Jammed with Ronald and Lionel. Restarted drum lessons with Amanda and Athena. Went to Life Group.

He's getting better!

Edward, Katrina and Aaron all agree on one thing: Lionel can sing!

Sunday. After church, celebrated Andrew's birthday. Jogging with Ben, Danwin and Wei Shern. Surprise party for Penny.

Best picture of Liz and Betty ever taken.

The birthday cake was chocolate mixed with rum, nuts, lemon zest and raisins. All thanks to Mel the master baker...

One very surprised birthday girl. Best BS group outing ever!

Feels good to have a life again =)
