♥ ELLEN ♥: RYCS Food Fair

Hi people. Yea, it's my time to blog out a very precious moment with my loved ones. I mentioned it at the previous post, RYCS food fair. Did I ever mention that I am a Catholic before? I don't think I did. Okay, so let me first begin an introduction before some of you might not know what I'm talking about. RYCS is also mean Rosary Youth Catholic Society, in chinese, we are called 玫瑰公青.

I joined this society 4years ago, I was being introduced into this society by my best friend, Joey Khew. I joined a really big function when I first came in, 世界之光. From that onwards, I became more and more active in this youth club and I really enjoy having time with them.

Ya, I admitted that sometimes we don't show a Catholic role, we do talk somebody's bad words, we argued like non of people business, we throw temple like not showing any respect, these happened are just because we show the real 'US'.

I have gone through some tough moments when about 2years ago, ya, quite a long time ago. I was really sad and totally depressed of RYCS, I felt like hating everyone in it. I was so suffering that no one tried to stand by my side or even understand my feeling, neither friends nor best friends. I was alone and I feel so helpless. I cried like a baby everyday when I reached home and no one knows.

But, I need to greet a big thanks to all of them who hurt me so much. Thank you! Seriously. I learnt from what you guys are trying to teach me. Maybe I was a little bit too much that time and made you people feel like an incredible FREAK I am. Ok, fine, I have gone through it finally. I have a happy life now.

Back to the topic, we do have the happy moments. We laugh like nobody else business, hold hands like couples, hug each other like one big family, learn some gospels from the elders and tolerate each other too. We organised events for our members and play like crazy.

We don't hide our feelings when we are being together. And, this is what I trusted. {*ignored things I mentioned up there because I was different that time =) }

RYCS food fair is a really big event in our church and a touching time for us, because you will find that some of our members who have not shown up for a long time will suddenly appear in front of you. When we saw them, we were like shocked and stunned for a few seconds.

A beautiful Sunday morning made everything looks perfect. All of us gathered outside the church waiting for the key holder, Uncle Brian to come and open the gate for us. We were busy getting all the food out of the car and to the canteen. Then, we prayed before we started doing things.

The dog was welcoming us.

These were the materials that we gonna use to cook fried rice and spaghetti

drinks

Pictures below are the teamwork we have together. We were being allocated to different groups so that works can be done efficiently and fast! And together we did this, we named it TEAMWORK.

These are the tomatoes that are being cut by Sophia, RYCS president. Don't they look fresh and yummy? By the way, they were used to cook as a spaghetti dressing.

Did I ever mention that I love being with RYCS? If yes, fine. If not, then I'm going to tell now. RYCS is really like a second family to me. As I mentioned up there that we don't hide our feelings when we are together. We show the real us but not only between RYCS members, even those who are part of us, our church members（教友）.

I love looking at their smiling faces, they look so beautiful and handsome with their smiles on their faces. When I see those smiling faces, my heart feels so warm. And, I know that my heart is overwhelmed by God's love.

Lastly, we were trying to sell off the food. So we did mobile selling group so that the food can be sold off faster. We sold the food to those who are rushing somewhere else and didn't get a chance to visit us at the canteen, this can make them feel like we care for them too, right?

I didn't join them till the event ended because I was rushing to another place which was Mye Ji Shyan's house for our Business Project. Quite tiring but I was happy that day.

From the picture below I know that they have a massage section. If I did know that, I wouldn't have gone to my friend's house first =( sad case..
