Hmmm... Before I start. I happened to go Bloghopping, and realised that my bass guide is sorta needed... So here it is after this post! Haha. Best used with a knowledge of Piano Grade 6 Theory and above. Any queries can be directed to my email. Yup!

Freaky Friday wasn't that freaky after all I guess. In fact... In the company of friends, it never feels freaky! Yay. My OG stayed till 9:30pm for the movie screenings and breakdance performances put up by the awesome MR committee. Though the turnout wasn't great, we had an awesome time eating marshmallows, bananas, chocolate fondue, popcorn, and of course stealing away to go for OG dinner.

Earlier in the afternoon... Guoren's house was a bridge haven. And we sat in his dining room playing. He has one acoustic, one electric, and one romantic guitar, so for me it was guitar haven. Haha. Mandre requested Jay Chou songs, so Guoren tried... I know the plucked intro for QingTian! Haha. And Mandre is a dip already! Wah. Guoren showed me alterbridge.com, and Mandre showed me more Jason Mraz on the com, and then I went to listen to the songs for worship. Couldn't figure out the bass intro for All Things are Possible cos the notes go by so fast. Haha.

Freaky Friday was followed by a Saturday that blew my socks off. Went to East Coast park at around 1 something. Me and Benedict sorta got lost trying to get to Macs, all cos we got off at the wrong bus stop. As result, we had to walk to the highway, walk through the underpass which brought us to Area A, then walk the long way to Macs. Haha. And to top it all off, I only had 10 bucks in my wallet after OG dinner. Hahaha.

Went for bowling with the guys first, and Ernest lent me some cash cos bowling cost $8.40! Wah. What a ripoff. But was super on form. Manage to get a 103 and then a 122, beating all the rest. Haha. Tried using a 6 pound for my second throws and it was so easy to spin, and I could put in more power to finish off remaining pins. As a result, had an awesome Strike Spare combo that got me 122 points. Played table soccer, then went to join the girls Mel, Shu and Amanda for blading.

You know what? I know 5 Mels and 5 Amandas now. But I know 12 Bens. Haha. Just stating a random fact about myself.

Sunday. Prac was good, worship was good. Felt the vibe! Hmm. And Tim wants to speak with me. Dunno why... I'll check with him I guess.

Monday. Started off with lectures, and then bio, gp, maths then chem tutorials. Super long day. For some reason, all my Tutors are female. Wah. And they all seem like the bullyable type. In fact, they're super nice and not like Sec Sch teachers. Here, they treat us like real adults. And I mean it.

The real excitement started with class lunch! Hmmm... Got to know lots of new people. Azrin, Ashwin, Ihtmam, Leonard, Nazirul, Ben Zheng, Alan, Christopher, Mie, Carol, Christine, Melissa no. 5, Amanda no. 5, Michelle, Yu Ying, Tabitha etc etc etc.

Maths we had a quiz... Wah. BCME students have all the luck. But scored 18 out of 20! Yay. GP tutorial was quite interesting as well... Nothing to do except play the 2 Truths and 1 Lie game thingy.

I am lying
I am not lying
I am smart

Which one is a lie? Haha. Tricky Tricky.

Chem prac was kinda weird cos we had a relief teacher. She was quite soft spoken, but she told us lots about RJC Chem. She said... Be prepared to fail. Haha. Cos she got 37/100 for S Paper, and still got a distinction. Hahaha.

The highlight of the day... Meeting with Eden-Sol, and thinking of the possibility of joining Raffles Rock as a band to get our practices more constant. Prayer and meeting all of them was real awesome, especially with our new drummer Samuel with us. Well, we'll pray and get back for another meeting on Wednesday, where the final verdict will be passed...

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!
