Appreciation Night


I was in charged of arranging my church’s Appreciation Night last week. 

Well, the main idea of this Appreciation Night thing was to reward all of the church’s servants (activists) for all that they’ve done for the church. In the past, the appreciation used to be given during church’ anniversary, but this year my pastor would like to conduct it separately, so yeah, I was a lil bit nervous (yet, excited) when appointed as the PIC, because it would be the first Appreciation Nite at my church :p 

We had a fine dining at the church hall (BIG thanksss to Ci Sophia, Ci Dessy, Ci Ayong cs and of course our PastorChef Ko Yakub for managed the dining tables plus prepared the foods, I really couldn’t ask for more :D) while special guest star gospel-singer Jason sang for us, continued by Praise & Worship session led by our MC plus WL, Wiwin.

Church hall magically transformed into Ritz Carlton's ballroom :p

"Import" guest star: Jason

MC for that nite: Wiwin and Anton

After that, we began to recognize the  servants by give them a special charter with each of their names, name meanings, and verses written on it, also some encouragement words from our pastor and leaders. Special for GO a.k.a cell group leaders, they also received their facial caricature :D


Facial caricature of Maggie. So look alike!

And, tadaaaa… we also had special appreciation surprise for our pastor and his family :) Thank you for all that you’ve done for us, Ko Yakub, Ci Yenny, Joel and Noni. Oikos loves you!


Here are some pre-event pics…

Pindahan #2: Putus

Nggak, saya nggak putus. Lha mau putus sama siapa? Okay, selamat datang kembali di blog post series Pindahan! Buat yang belum baca part 1-nya, sila dibaca di sini ya, biar nggak bingung saya ngoceh tentang apa. Lanjuttt! Untuk pindahan kali ini, saya memutuskan nggak pakai jasa mover alias tukang jasa pindahan. Kenapa? Karena selain barang saya nggak banyak-banyak amat, pakai mover di sini juga lumayan mahal, bisa $70 - $100. Mending duitnya dipake buat beli baju baru . Nah, resiko nggak pakai mover adalah, saya harus mau pindahin barang saya sedikit demi sedikit dari rumah lama ke rumah baru. Rutinitas saya tiap pagi selama seminggu belakangan kira-kira begini: tiap pagi ke kantor bawa gembolan dua travel bag atau satu koper --> Dilihatin dan ditanyain sama orang-orang sekantor, "Wah, you're flying back home, ah?" --> I wish --> Kerja membanting tulang demi sepetak kamar sampai kira-kira jam 7 malam --> Gotong-gotong gembolan ke rumah baru. Asal ta

Beberapa hari yang lalu, saya lagi baca One Year Bible Plan, waktu roommate saya ingatin untuk bayar uang kost. FYI, we rent a unit of HDB (sebutan untuk rumah susun di Singapore) here, consists of three bedrooms, and one of those rooms has been vacant for a month. We’ve been trying our best in order to find a housemate, but still haven’t found one yet. Nah, berhubung saya dan roommate saya nyewa satu unit, konsekuensinya adalah kalau ada kamar yang kosong, kami yang harus nanggung pembayarannya. Haha, finding a housemate is frustating, and paying for a vacant room is even more! :p But then, we have no choice. Jadi, waktu roommate saya ingatin untuk bayar uang kost (karena memang udah waktunya bayar), I went downstair to withdraw money from ATM (di bawah rumah saya ada mesin ATM, lol!). Waktu habis ngambil uang, saya cek saldo, dan… langsung mengasihani diri sendiri, wkwk. Ironis sekali bagaimana sederet angka yang terpampang di monitor mesin ATM bisa mempengaruhi mood-mu, ya? :p N
