Was I scared of the auditions?
No.
Stage fright has never been an issue to me,
especially after being in band for so many years & dancing in Campus Creative Unit.

When I first signed up for Campus SOH (today known as Arrow RSM)...
this was what happened. I signed up without Jon knowing.
& when Jon found out, he asked me loadsa questions & actually, before that I've been doubting whether I wanna commit to Campus SOH =x
because I was working part time then, I was working for Spaggedies @ Marina Square & would come straight down for Campus Service after work.
because of the commitment too, Campus SOH had to serve every Campus service, theres no alternate group. Part of me, wanted to sit down & receive during Campus service too.
& Jon was like, "HEY you're in Campus Creative Unit right? Not every ministry come you sign up y'know. & then, must let me know first. Concentrate on your CCU first." lol, cuz before that I also signed up for Children's Ministry without him knowing...but that time, they didn't want students so I ended up not joining Children's Ministry - come to think of it, I wasn't really called for that. HAHA.
Maybe someday, things may change. oh wells. I was rather new & eager, that time. Not knowing much, well I could serve in many areas in ECC thats why... =x
I could do back up singing & ushering. *lol*
MUST think of the point there, this is a mega church, things are much more organized & ministries gotta go through interviews. because ECC didn't have interviews for ministries.
So I was quite blur when I first came to New Creation, honestly.

Since I've so many friends in Choir, why don't I join choir instead?
Well, serving is not about friends. Every individual is graced to do different things, that is why we are fearfully & wonderfully made. We can use the gifts Daddy God blessed us with through serving, we can also discover new gifts through serving. Even though I do not know much people in RSM, I can still make new friends. Making new friends is always something that I enjoy doing.
Looking at my progression today, it ain't that bad... All the nice people I got to know in my team (: They are also YWAs (young working adults) but I enjoy them more than Arrow YWA, somehow don't ask me why.

But I enjoy singing also, why did I choose ushering instead?
HA! HA! This is something hard to answer, very honestly. But well, I believe Daddy God led to where I am today. Somehow, before I even joined RSM, I was keeping a filled up form, it was juz about when am I gonna submit it...
It was by divine appointment, I believe...
This is the story of how I end up in my team...
Coach Barnabas is an awesome leader who I am thankful for, so is Khai Leng, his wife.
He was so nice he used to pick me up after work because my workplace was 10mins drive away from Khai Leng's. Thus, when I went into his car, I was seated beside this girl name Rachel.
She was so happy & chirpy, very nice girl to talk to. Everybody in the car was talking about Step Into The Zone, Planetshakers concert.

On the second week that Coach Barnabas fetched me from my workplace...
Upon approaching Suntec, Rachel & me got down from the car first so kinda chatted with her a little. Randomly, I started praising the ushers in our church & say that "eh I think what they're doing, they make a difference in our church. I wanna join ushering?!" Upon hearing that, not knowing that Rachel was in main church RSM...Rachel asked if I was interested in joining, I told her I wanna consider first. Haha, but I gave my number & e-mail to Rachel. I said I wanted to consider first cuz I've learnt from the previous experiences, that I should be accountable, thus I had to ask Amy first. The following week, I still haven't asked Amy...I wondered, why was I hesitating? Hehe... & on a Saturday, I haven't told Amy but responded to Rachel's sms... yes I am still interested in joining RSM but I need to ask my CGL first....somehow, just nice the next day was RSM Mass Recruitment, I thought it was juz perfect for me... & I indicated my interest at the counter set-up. *haha* & I sms-ed Amy while I was still having dinner with the care group at esplanade, glutton's bay. Knowing that she was gonna have her Leader's Israel Trip the next day, I asked if it was convenient to take up juz a little bit of her time. Or else, never mind it's okay, I'll wait 'til she's back from Israel Trip. She was so sweet, she said. "hey Linda, you can call me anytime" & yeah when I said I wanted to join RSM in main church, she said how about SOH? (as in Arrow RSM) I told her that I am already serving in Team I.M, productions for Arrow. She responded, "oh ya hor! how long have you been thinking about this?" I responded, "eh very long already leh" (which is the truth man!) She said "eh...." she paused for awhile... & said "Ok join lor" (in a cheery tone) I was so happy, "Ok thank you Amy!" & sms-ed her again to thank her for her time although she had to prepare for her Israel trip. Then I sms-ed Rachel, "hey you can pass my number to your leader. My CGL said ok"
Somehow I really think that Daddy God led me to this team, although there was a little clash when someone else from another team called me for RSM Orientation, I told her that I've already started serving with another team. She said okay... HAHA cuz I indicated my interest during the RSM Mass Recruitment. RSM Orientation was interesting, went down with Yin Ying cuz she joined Holy Comm. HEHE.
Yup, so I strongly believe that everything was so God-incidental.

Whether I'll join choir (as a 2nd ministry) in the future,
it is still a question mark.
Go with the flow yeah.

For I am so sure that I will stay with RSM for long, cuz I am enjoying RSM now.
& if I can be serving as an usher in ECC for 2 years, I am sure that I am gonna stick around with RSM for a long, long time (:
