Famine 30 In the Black Rain

On the same day of Oasis Birthday, 19 April, when all of my Oasis Family members were enjoying the dinner, in an indoor party room, at the same time, I was starving in a very meaningful Famine 30 event, and you may knew that, there was a typhoon and black rain on that day.

The event started at 2pm, However, the crazy rain even freezed all the indoor and outdoor programme, more than 3,000 participants were getting wet even on the cover grandstand, and I was the lucky group of participants who could move to the indoor sports center.

The rain kept heavy until 9pm. Finally, MC announced we had to back home, starved for ourselves and waited for the arrangement of Day 2 event.

Luckily, The Typhoon and rain was clear, we all see sunshine, the programme was continued and I backed to the venue again until the end of 30 hours.

Our power is limited, even we have a good planning, and something still cannot be controlled, just like the weather. Every year, Famine 30 keep on reminding me we should treasure what you have e.g. your health and the peace of living HK, and share what you have to the people who need help, e.g. share your advices/ experience or sometimes gives donation.

Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thanks for the Sponsorship from my Oasis Friends to me and WoldVision. If you want to join this meaningful event next year will me, please let me know.

Cheers,

Steve

Happy Birthday to Oasis 6 years

Dear all,

With your excellent jobs from each of you, the Speakathon and Dinner yesterday was undoubtedly a great success. We heard the guests' appreciation and support to the event on the day with Typhoon Signal No.3, we felt the audience's hot response in the Speakathon and during the dinner's programs, and we saw the happy face on each of them when leaving the venue at the end of the day.

Really really thanks so much for your commitment and creativity. I felt proud of being one of the members in this team; if it was without anyone of you, the event would not have been as great and enjoyable as that yesterday. When seeing the photos shared by Tony, Teresa and Sally, I personally think that the Speakathon-cum-Dinner is the most unforgettable and wonderful event of Oasis in this year 2007-08.

Looking forward to another day working with you all again.

Cheers,
Simon

Dear Oasians,

Last Monday I made the first speech in Oasis, and this was also the first English speech in my life. It is a very memorable moment.

When I was introduced to stand in the front, I was very scared. My hands were shaking. But soon, when I started the speech, the audience's attentive eyes made me calm down. The speech in my mind suddenly disappeared. I felt myself just like sharing with the audience, but not trying to recall the words and sentences from the prepared speech. The feeling is very different from that when I was praticing by myself. May be that is " live show is different from rehearsal'.

When I finished the speech, many of you grasped my hands. That's so warm and encouraging. Thanks to all of you.
