Happy New Year!

Wow... Sorry for posting my new year's greetings this late... My dad took away the external modem to prevent my bros from playing. Haha. Well, doing my Geog project now...

Bowling was great! I scored 97 for my first and 75 for my second. A bit off form... Only managed One strike and four spares. Paid 2o dollars for everyone's shoes. Those who owe me money, please return me the money or else... Just joking! That was a pathetic attempt at sadistic humour, Daryl's forte. Haha. Anyway, went for watchnite service with everyone after that. Listened intently to pastor... Felt really sad for the people elsewhere. Be strong and courageous... After the peace, went to sit with my parents and my bros. Was really surprised that Hui Juan came up to share. Great sharing! I think among the scores of adults around me, I clapped the loudest....

The next day was soccer. Argh... didn't score. Never mind. Was fun. Great to see Ivan again. Great to see Johnston, Kenny, Caleb , Junxu , David, Ryan, Radius, Uncle Henry... Will remember you guys... And Ivan is still my idol! Great acrobatic saves! The rain was refreshing, wanted to play but decided to dry out. Sat beside Moses and Louis to talk. Moses has some plans for YE too... Cool. After soccer, the girls went up to change, and Martin and Paul were doing the Matrix thingy in the rain. Haha... "Won't die larh..."Haha.. Finally it was our turn to go up and Paul did the whole Eminem rap twice by the time we reached the 25 floor. Cool. After drying ourselves down, I borrowed one of Gerald's Shirts, a nice yellow one just my size. Will return it soon... Ben Aw wasn't so lucky though. Went to eat duck rice, then most of the guys left except me and Sidney. Went to play mahjong! I rocked in it! Haha... Went off with Sidney while Amanda, Hui Juan and Shirley were sleeping. We talked about Louis on the way to the MRT... Wells, fun day!

Happy new year again!

It's been quite some time since the last post, and time has just been ticking on. I'm entering a new phase in my career in a new office at Queenstown. Things are good on the work front, as I've been given a vote of confidence and responsibilities despite my young age. Eventually I'll be getting re-designated as a Team Leader, and looking forward to it! It's a sign that I am well versed enough in the work. Another part of my life that has been looking up - playing keys/bass for the newly created Saturday Service for church. I feel that spiritually things are well despite the turmoil of last year. A great sense of fulfillment and meaning whenever I do that, as if I'm back to my roots. In terms of leisure the usual things:  1. Soccer - Late night matches (back to the good old days) 2. PS4 - Trying to finish off Tales of Berseria, moving on to Assassins Creed: Origin thereafter 3. Anime - Still watching the good old stuff that is still going on (One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh,...

Digimon

 I'm feeling quite nostalgic and have been thinking about my childhood a lot recently. A lot of it is because of the retreat I just had with my CG members and how having such a retreat reminded me of days that were more slower paced and more relaxed.  It makes me want to relive some of my memories. Two ways that I've thought about is soccer - I've been watching some of the World Cup matches, and it reminds me of the late nights I had watching matches when I was 15 or so and just starting this blog. About how soccermugger came to be in the first place and how I wanted this platform to post about soccer scores and how I felt about the matches I watched. The other way is to watch old anime, and I'm thinking about revisiting the first ever anime I watched which was Digimon. It was televised in Mandarin at 8am, and I remember waking up early on the weekends to watch it fervently. Maybe its time to do that again.  In general I guess my inclinations are to be more at ease and ...

Bakemonogatari

Hiya everyone! Just signed my permanent staff contract today and I must say that was a real moment of satisfaction. Shows that the 2 years of hard work and dedication to what I do has paid off in a big way and I'm happy with my work. When I started my job I had no idea it would be this fulfilling and enjoyable and I am so blessed to have it. Couple of exciting things are happening: for one a holiday with my family to Korea. Other stuff include pay raises and the bonus that goes with it, Euro 2016 etc. I finally watched a match on Saturday (it was boring) but Sunday night's matches were great. Tonight not too sure if I'll watch any but it's shaping up to be an exciting tournament. Well that's all for now, more updates after the next series!
