Well Steve Irwin's death kinda shook everybody up. The most pitiful thing is that if the stingray barb hadn't pierced his heart he would've survived. Such is the frailty and unpredictability of life. Watched Click right after I heard the news, which kinda reinforced that point. Its quite sad that everything just passes by in a flash and you end up regretting everything. Wonder how Steve Irwin felt while he was dying.

Time to live life to the fullest! No worries, mate.

Matthew 6:25-27
"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"

Well in our case is worrying about promos and exams and studies and such.

Ok for the remainder of the time... I wanna thank the people who've supported me through those tough three weeks of angst and stress. I'm feeling much better already.

-Thanks YE people for good advice, prayer, lots of fun and company through the toughest times. You guys remind me that as I walk through the darkness and can't see anything, there are still people beside me that I know I can depend on to go towards the light.
-Thanks S03H for being so supporting and asking how I'm doing, it makes me smile especially when everyone breaks out of their cliques and give support to anyone.
-Thanks JPS people. Seeing you guys, no matter for how short a period of time made me remember of the times when we were so carefree. And I enjoy those memories.
-Thanks Eden-Sol for the prayers every single day, and for all those laughs. You guys are my source of strength every single morning.
-Thanks RJGE people for talking to me online. Even the most (seemingly) meaningless of convos always turn out to have something meaningful inside somewhere.

Thats all folks! Maybe I'll update some time soon.

P.S Darn I have to reload the phone pics software on my com again.

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 ...

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!
