Singapore, Buddhist Fellowship
Wow! Wow! What a fabulous Sunday it was today!! :)
Today marks the 1st YP Sunday Service at Buddhist Fellowship. "YP" as you would have intelligently guessed by now ... it means "Young People"! :)
When the door opened for Service at 10.15am, throngs of young worshippers entered the Dhamma Hall. Oh, what a holy Sunday it would be as I met the smiling faces! :) So exciting!
Everyone who came were so COOL & FUN!
Our "Bb" (bell bearer), Soon, begun our YP Sunday with the sounds of bells... Oh, what a magnificient tinkling of mindfulness as the echoes filled the air.
Soon (pun unintended... hee hee), we were led into our "Puja" (offering) time with our own "Fashion Couture", Hugo, and "Miss Peace", Phionna. LOL :)

In Pali :
Namo tassa bhagavato, arahato, samma, sambuddhasa
Namo tassa bhagavato, arahato, samma, sambuddhasa
Namo tassa bhagavato, arahato, samma, sambuddhasa
What it means in English :
Honour to Him, the Blessed One, the Worthy One, the Fully-Enlightened One (x3)
I was eager to know all the "New Faces" (ahem... was this not a tagline of the recent TNP beautiful faces?? haha). Hmmm... I remembered all the 22 names ! How many did you remember??? :?
YPs (sounds like yuppies) were like little jumpy beans... keeping seated for too long is not recommended.
Smarty Coaches wer right... we need to stretch... we were brought downstairs "pink panthering" our way through the Adult Sunday Service (sorry mommy, sorry daddy :))...
Our next task was challenging... HAHAHA... down our throats with cool nice drink!! Thank you Coaches!
Oh Oh... but did anyone tell you not to accept a gift without favors? ... Too Late!
Groups of 4-5 were broken up and we had to do the "hardest thing" of the day !! (Funny!)
We had to come up with characteristics of the new YP t-shirt! Aha!
Artistic and creative juices were overflowing...
I am still reeling with the idea of having a PIG(er... yah.. right... animal oink oink) on a T-shirt design! And what's more, these YPs are really Yippeess... they want the shirt in HOT PINK!!??
Just can't wait to see the outcome and wear the T-Shirt!! er.... second thoughts... not quite sure..
At the end of the day, we were All 4 one & one 4 All - WHOOSH!
Such a HIGH feeling overcoming me leaving me to keep smiling throughout this week... Can't wait till next Sunday & our movie date!
