away to a seaside resort

there will be no blogging from me for 2 days as i’ll be off to attend a 2 nights 3 days formation. the word ‘formation’ is simply a catholic term for seminar, conference or talk. by attending it it is suppose to ‘form’ you into a better person after what you have learned, hence the word ‘formation’.

this formation is organised by our society of st vincent de paul (diocese level) of which i am the secretary, therefore i am in the organizing committee. ater the formation we will be having our AGM. (btw, just to side-track a bit – next week, in our parish we are having anil netto from aliran as our speaker for another formation).

we have about 80 partcipants -about 30 from kedah and perak. i am in charge of registration (see, howsy, told ya i like registration) and food. further i have to run around taking photos (but i hope to delegate this job to someone else) because i am going to write about our formation/AGM to our catholic weekly, the herald (i am now a what you call ‘stringer’ for herald, that is i write for them whenever there is some events/activities going on nearby my area.)

oh yeah where will the formation be held? at stella maris, the seaside holiday home of the catholic church. nce place with lovely view of the sea and direct private access to the sea. picture here shows a shot of the  nice garden taken from  a room in the block (partly hidden).

i’m going in on sunday afternoon and be back on tuesday afternoon. back to blogging on wednesday then. until then’ be good and take care. in the meantime if you haven’t sign up for the bloggers gathering yet please do so now. oh and don’t forget to register as a voter if you haven’t yet.
