Lots

Awesome week. Just awesome. Busy like almost half the week? Sigh. And not getting enough sleep. Darn biological clock. Go abroad once and it gets all messed up. I wake up at 3am instead of 10am. Zzz...

K. Enough of complaining. Sunday was great. Good to be back in church. Did a bit of dancing. Played the birthday song for Audrey with the worship team. Haha. Well, happy birthday! Went for lunch with my bros, then home by taxi. My bros were like asking me which band was louder, Hillsongs or Planetshakers, so we had a little experiment.

Left ear: Running After You-Planetshakers
Right ear: What the World will Never Take-Hillsongs

And guess what. Those were my ears they were using.

Monday... Went bowling with my cousins Om, Des, Elaine, Shanny and my bros. Topped for all rounds.

Scores: 127, 108, 105

Hmm... There was this group of JC students I think at the first lane. They played one round, then decided to order some food and leave the lane empty while they ate. How inconsiderate. Well, I guess people just think about themselves, never for others. Anyone wanna go bowling? Only 1 dollar in the mornings!

Went for pool with Om, Des and bros after that. Des learnt how to play. I put the black ball in the hole twice and lost. Bah. I won the one on one match with my bro though!

2 Doubles losses
1 Singles win

Tuesday... Went for prize giving for Greenwave at Goodwood Park hotel, which was at Scotts Road. Chionh kinda disallowed me from going up to stage cos my "hair was too long". Hah. No matter. I just need the 50 dollars prize money. There was a news crew there! And I got filmed. Haven't seen myself in the news yet though... The ceremony lasted till 12 noon, and I was kinda bushed by then.

Wednesday. Went for piano. Completed FFX till Mt. Gagazet, which is pretty far. Seymour Flux is a pretty hard boss to beat... After that, it'll be a cinch.

Soccer!

Liverpool topped! With a lots of resolute defending! Kudos goes to the England teams for an entertaining match. Man U's out! They were looking really desperate to win in the second half. Park was like really pissed and so was Rooney. The refereeing decisions seemed to go the wrong way. Anyway, Man U's passing was horrible. Thats why they lost. Good job Benfica! Awesome defending. Man U didn't have much chances at goal in the second half.

From now on, I'm supporting Benfica cos my name is in it. Haha.

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!
