Interhouse Chess!

London bomb blasts!!! Haha. Terrorists are so smart. Wait until the IOC announced the venue then detonate 6 simultaneous bombs. Haha. Is London still going to hold the 2012 Olympics? Dunno. My SS teacher brought up something really relevant to the IOC. He said that the spirit of the olympics was to unite countries as one. But see how this ended up. A competition for glory. Bah. Get my point?

I had NE Lunch talk on Thursday! The speaker had a real simple yet interesting name. I kinda forgot. Anyways, he talked about national relations with other countries and what our job in the future was. Yups. Then suddenly before he started speaking the alarm bell in the dining hall started ringing like crazy and this guy went to muffle the noise with his hand. Dr Chionh was like... Haha. Anyways the alarm stopped. Then we had lunch! Not very nice but good enough.

Took part in interhouse chess. Haha. I wanted to play chinese chess, but they kinda lacked people in the international side, so they swapped me there. My chinese chess is better than my international... So in the end I got 1 win, 1 draw, two losses. Win vs Buckley, Draw with Hullett, Lost against Moor or Morrison. Good chance to pit my skills against chess club people... But I still lost. Haha. I think we got fourth ofr international. Hope chinese chess does well.

Lets play the fuzzy wuzzy game! Try and guess the similarities in what fuzzy wuzzy likes!

Fuzzy Wuzzy likes apples not oranges.
Fuzzy Wuzzy likes chilli! Haha.
Fuzzy Wuzzy likes green and yellow but not red, blue and black.
Fuzzy Wuzzy likes Morrison, Hullett and Moor, but doesn't like Bayley and Buckley.
Fuzzy Wuzzy loves food!
Fuzzy Wuzzy loves cooking food even more!
Fuzzy Wuzzy likes Kenny but not me! =(
Fuzzy Wuzzy likes swimming, but doesn't like the water.
Fuzzy Wuzzy likes Pizzas and Spaghetti but not Italian Restaurants.
Fuzzy Wuzzy likes kissing and hugging people!

Haha. Clueless? Ask me for the answer loh. Although it looks very easy now...

Ok! Had the interview with Dr. Iqbal for English. He was a guy who helped out in SARs and went to Aceh on relief missions. So it was pretty good knowing about this kind of things. Yups! Our group's pretty effecient! Dom, Daniel, Hakeem, Paul and me. We're awesome! Daniel Goh sacrificed his promotion from Corporal to Sergeant for the interview... Your noble sacrifice will be remembered forever... Hahaha. Oh. Daniel is sec4 btw. In case you were wondering...

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,...

Ride On

Recently things have been going really well. I've had a leadership position in my workplace for almost one year now and it is quite amazing how God has guided throughout the way. Despite this I feel that I have achieved the balance between my work, personal life and I'm in some sort of a flow that makes me satisfied about how things are going. I'm about to transition to another stage of it, and it feels that along the way God has prepared me each and every step. There's a lot to give thanks for.  Things are really cruising along. I've always liked a good, smooth drive and life feels that way at the moment. Its been a long time along a bumpy road but finally things feel right.  Praise be to God who calms the raging seas. Praise be to God who can be counted on for the hardest difficulties in life.  Not sure when the next post be, but I think if things carry on the way they are, more good posts are to come.
