In mid of April 2010, Revd. Wong invited me to consider for the 3 months stay in Taize.
In mid of May 2010, I had an "interview" with Revd. Lam. He told me something about Taize.
And finally, after a month I have applied the application, he confirmed I could visit Taize for 3 months!!! How excited I was but followed with the anxiety...
Because of this stay, I got to know Annie, who helped me a lot for the arrangements before I went to Taize. She is a very nice person! After she told me what should I prepared, I asked her to pray for me, and I felt more peaceful to make the decision. :)
I knew that it must be God's plan and I'm so grateful that I could be one of the lucky person, it's just like a dream... I couldn't believe I was the lucky one!
It like an adventure for me : with the very poor English skill, 1 st time to go out Asia; 1 st time to travel alone; 1 st time to leave home for 3 months! WOW!
God choose the foolishness!
But I really give thanks to God, HE gave me such an precious experience, HE love me sooooo much!
Also, thanks so much for my family and friends, gave me a lot of Love and encouragement before I left HK.

Special thanks to Hoyee, the permanent in Taize of 2009, she helped me a lot esp. for my mind's preparation! :D
I finished the exam on 8 June, and I only have 5 days to prepare my trip because I need to come back HK in early of September for my beginning of school of my final year!!!
I was really really really nervous!!!!!!!!!! I still don't know what's exactly I was nervous about... it seems like toooooooooooooo rush!!! everything not prepared well... the bills, the school fees, the stuffs in my home......etc....
These 5 days before I left, I bought many stuffs to Taize, like souvenirs of HK, cloths, daily commodities...etc.
The most important thing --> had a hair cut! :D
Also I had farewell dinnersssss with my family and friends every night... hahaha... it's just too exaggerated :P

2010.06.13~14 going to Taizé.
The day before I left HK, I packed my luggage from midnight until morning! wah! CRAZY ME... but it still overweight =.= how could I do that.......
I slept for only 2 hours and than went to church, shared what I'll do and how I felt at that moment to my church-mates ;)
In the afternoon, I went to HSC, met Woo Sir, Hoyee and WanHoi, they gave me something...... So grateful to have you all ;)
Finally, gotta leave home at 19:30.
When we (with my mom and brother) arrived the bus stop, God prepared a cheap taxi (泥猛的) which was only $30 per person to airport, it solve my unpeaceful feeling...

My luggage could came with me to Taize eventually! :D
Suddenly received the gift from my dearest sister! Chocolates and candies stored with a very beautiful bottle! Can't believe it was made by my sister :P
I had one second wanted to cry but I didn't :P because my family is too crazy and we laughed a lot!!!!!!!! :D
At 22:00, I have got to enter the gate, and said "see you all 3 months later" to my family ;)
Thanks God for the LOVE from all of them :)
23:15 flight departed.

And afterward, an air hostess from HK asked me if I like to eat ice-cream or noodles... WOW! so touching and warm!!! hahaha...
4:50 safely arrived Amsterdam @ Netherlands! :D
I walked around, watched around snapshot around, tidied up my bag, brushed my teeth... and I paid 3€ for the Internet 15min ... TWICE :P toooooo expensive.... why no free wi-fi....
After 4 hours, it's time to have entrance registration before I boarded the connecting flight. It's a bit longer than usual when I was registering.... that's person asked many things: WHERE? WHY? HOW LONG? FOR WHAT? and asked me to show the invitation letter from Taize...
eventually I finished the country registration and continued my journey! :D going to Lyon @ France!!!
TBC... :)
