Wedding Bells

Yay.... Congratulations to my cousin Tammy again, for getting such a wondeful and funny husband. Hope he didn't get too drunk last night... Got a chance to catch up with my relatives on my mom's side. So I guess the trip down was good...

Well, I kinda figured out something. Although I was troubled on Sunday, I'm ok now. I looked in the book of Job for my answers, but the truth was that on that Sunday itself, everything already had been revealed to me but I was concentrating too much on a single part of the talk... Well, the simplest solution to my problem was to be 'strong and courageous'. Pray and obtain strength from God even when in suffering. If I'm dying one day, I'm gonna do just that. I realise that I've been thinking too much about myself and not about God. Thats somewhere I'm gonna change. Aunty Kar Foon told us that it wasn't just about us, but abuout God. I guess I kinda forgot about that. Thanks for your help and concern guys... Mel, Gerald, Amanda, Aunty Kar Foon... All's well! But I can't help thinking that there's something God has prepared for me... Why else would he want me to learn about choices and sacrifice during the holidays, and now about suffering? I'm still waiting for the time this comes...

Went to Biopolis for a talk on Supremolecular Chemistry (Whatever that is). We kinda walked out on the speaker halfway through the Q&A session. The bus driver was pissed because we made him wait for quite long, so our teacher asked us to go off. I felt kinda bad because we walked out on a nobel prize winner. Haha... But who cares anyway. Just joking. Copied down some notes that I didn't comprehend fully. I'm gonna do my reflective essay on Friday...

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 ...

Gamble

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,...

Of God and Demons

Now that'd I've put my last phase of life past me and have some more time to reflect cos I'm C+ for the second time, I feel that it's the correct time to do a bit more reflection about my past, especially the last couple of years. I've always thought that one of the counseling exercises practiced would be helpful for me to process what I've been going through - that is to personify my negative emotions. In a sense to experience that final bit of release from these emotions that have threatened me for a long time. To talk about the inner demons that I've been facing.  Wrath. The fiercest of them all, yet gentlemanly in some ways, calculative in others. People usually imagine wrath to be brawny, in your face and belligerent. But my Wrath is more sinister, sly even. Plotting the downfall of my enemies and using the knowledge that I have to exact vengeance. Over the months I have exerted control of him by reminding myself that only God has the right to judge. De...
