So I went for illumi on the 28th November , and I really did enjoy the run! Before we starts the run, we were standing more on the side where the people squirting the goo were. And you see all those advertisement about Illumi, the people are smiling and running which being squirt on? It's all fake.
Hahahaha it's like so unexpected, and it all comes at one shot at you. And it's not like water from a water gun, but thick, gooey and kinda smelly. (It smells like plastic to me)
So anyway, it came at one shot and just went into my eye, my ear, and bam. The race started. You will realise that there will not be a clean piece of shirt for you to wipe your face.
It's just green but you can see how much we got sprayed.
As the race went on, we continued to the different colours, and there were several DJs as we ran. I love female DJs tho. (Bias oops)
So anyway, we took a lot of photos together, and Rei's mum, Auntie Jane helped us to take most of them!
Posting the photos make me miss ya'll :'(
So anyway, the main point of this blog post is actually my feels on the after party. Yes, illumi run itself was fun, but I have conflicting views on the after party. Don't get me wrong, the music was good, company was excellent, and the hype was enjoyable! But about 30 minutes into the after party, I just felt empty?
(Actually, I wrote the post before, but almost everything got erased cos I didn't publish it. )
So back to what I felt, it's not because I had something bothering me. It just felt a little pointless like what is this partying all for? For me to be happy or to party to the music, or what? Okay maybe it was my first time going for a legit after party, so I'm not really used to all the dubstep.
But I felt really hollow.
After which, I figured out as to why I was feeling that way. Yes, I do like enjoying myself don't get me wrong, but after about 45 minutes, I started feeling a little empty in the inside. Like what is all the partying for? For me to feel good? Okay now that I feel happy, give me something more than just dropping the bass can HAHAHA
In all, (my opinion), nothing, absolutely nothing can and will beat "holy clubbing". By holy clubbing, I mean praise and worship in DARE, EJ camps, main service, even at home. This is the type of fun, most importantly spiritually fulfilling "clubbing" I need. The difference is that it's not just about the hype, but more importantly, there's a reason for my scream, shouts, and jumping- And that's to praise and worship the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, who laid His life down for me at the cross. Such unending, unfailing love, that's the reason I lift my hands, that's the reason I give Him the shouts of praise.
This post might be pretty offensive and I know that it might have offended a few of you, or even gave off the "JO SO HOLY SO RADICAL" impression. But it's really my own opinion ahhaha and I'm just putting out there cos it's my blog what right hehe. And honestly, I don't think (and I hope) I'm the only one who faces this emptiness during after parties.
So yes, thanks for reading all the way way way :~)
Shalom,
