Hmms. I just caught a lizard by the tail and it didn't drop its tail... Instead it kinda hung limp in my hand for awhile. When I sprinkled some water on it, it moved. And I thought it was dead... Haha. I let it go after that. I'm not so bad. I went around reading BLOGs today... Everyone seems kinda ok, you guys seem to be coping well with all the pressure. Having a good mix of fun and work. Yups. Try your best! Do God proud!

K. Scholarship Day... Was kinda disappointing. Nothing for me. No forensics scholarships offered. Although they said that I could try for Police Scholarship and hopefully its relevant to what the police wants... Never the less... For my aspirations, I'll do whatever I can! I'm not gonna give up so easily...

Monday. Assembly was very disappointing. I mean the performance, not the end. My mind just wasn't there in the hall I guess. I was thinking about RE... Anyways, went to Sam's house after school to do some work, as well as play Yu-Gi-Oh Cards and Fifa 2005. Samuel's good, but I forced him to a draw by using wall monsters and magic cards... Haha. K. Fifa was really fun. I used Valencia against Ming Hui and I lost 1-0, then won 1-0! Haha. And it was my first time playing! Then I used Barcelona, and I lost many many times to Samuel. Then all of sudden I realised how to use the controls effectively, so I finally managed to defend very well, and I held Samuel to a 0-0 draw. Not bad for a first...

I went to be an invigilator today. Yups. At my piano teacher's house. They were having mock practical exams. Some tips for your piano exam... Maybe for Hui Juan. Haha.

1. Don't be nervous, it'll just cause your tempo to be irregular and your hands to slip easier
2. Factor in the dynamics, otherwise, you'll never get past 24 upon 30
3. Put in your personal flair and emotions into the piece, and you'll get a distinction mark
4. Be polite to the examiner
5. Remember to adjust your chair before you start! Don't want to be in an awkward position...
6. Curve your fingers, don't forget your finger technique
7. When using the pedal, be careful when releasing. Sometimes it makes a horrible sound when released suddenly!

Yups. Thats all I can help with... It was fun invigilating! Haha.

National Day was boring... I was expecting Mahjong and Bridge at my grandma's house, but there was nothing. My cousins are all studying for tests and stuff. I need to study too, but I just don't find it that important... Yups... Work hard everyone!

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

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. 

Aikatsu

Have been engaging in a couple of new interesting hobbies to liven things up.  First off, chess of which I've started diving into to learn opening strategies and as part of that have started to watch official tournaments. Good way to stretch my thinking muscles. Second, watching netflix series in alphabetical order. Never know what interesting gems you uncover. I'm partway through stuff starting with the number 2, and its quite amazing how much you find about other cultures from this. Upcoming is a movie called 2 Weeks in Lagos, I think will be interesting cos I will get to learn more about Nigeria. I last watched a movie called 2 States which was about the clash in cultures between North and South India.   Third, watching soccer for the thrill and excitement. Letting this blog live up to its name.  Fourth, PS4. Finally finishing of Tales of Berseria and starting on Assassins Creed Origins soon.  Fifth, anime - the usual stuff I have never gone without since this blog started.
