Where The Cold Wind Blows

I'm back! And surprisingly I'm not looking too bad with short hair. Instead my body's looking much better with all the training. Ok so I shall run through certain things about ns that are not classified pieces of information.

Trainings

Physical, but not overtiring. Certain ones are fun, others are tough, and the rest are knowledge that soldiers need to know. The difficult part is not getting saboed or kena pumping.

Friends

Got a total of 5 RJ guys not including me in my platoon. Michael Yeung, Andrew Teh, Lai Jishun, Low Jian Liang and Jon Seetoh.

Mam's nearby... In my company too! Get to see him quite often. But not that often.

My section people are pretty easy going people, nice to be with, not too overbearing, and not too aloof at the same time. Just nice IMO. Lots of different personalities, but all click together to form a pretty good unit.

Wai Lun ~ Cool, calm, collected
Chris Cheong ~ Fellow musically inclined guy
Arjun ~ Funny nice guy
Yan Han ~ Takes initiative, nice IC =)
Haziq ~ Funny sial! Fellow guitarist.
Justin ~ Jovial, caring guy
Ivan ~ Poor guy always kena punished, but super funny crude guy
Jin Yan ~ Skinny nice guy with an English accent
York Yeong ~ OOT guy, friendly.
Han Mun ~ Tall, slow guy. Nice to make fun of.
Andrew ~ Buddy! Fellow RJ guy. Sturdy and encouraging.

Duties

Well of all duties to get I kena Rubbish IC. Which means every single time the rubbish bin outside the bunks are higher than half I gotta take them, go all the way to the cookhouse and throw in the smelly dumpster. Good think I don't hate the stink.

My Walk

Still doing the bible study material. Currently at Leviticus, which teaches us the various important aspects of worship.

5 important aspects can be observed from the 5 kinds of sacrifice offered!

Burnt Offering ~ Surrender of Christ for the world.
Grain Offering ~ Service of Christ in life
Fellowship Offering ~ Serenity of Christ in life
Sin Offering ~ Substitute of Christ for sin
Guilt Offering ~ Satisfaction bt Christ for demands of God

Kinda miss wearing my cross, but nevertheless, God has been good to me. Reading the Christian help text Gerald gave me and the QT sessions in the morning really helped. All over I see God's work in these first 2 weeks in NS.

Provision of a good buddy, provision of a great time of bonding with my section, provision of lenient and supportive sergeants, provision of satisfactory food, provision of healing aches, provision of a new car for my dad to drive me home just nice, provision of those nice messages from people that ended off my days on high notes.

Thank you God.

Well thats all for now. The next time you'll hear from me is CNY. That means you will see me in YE this week, but not next week. Have fun guys!

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

Vanguard

It’s taken a long time, but I think my heart is finally at peace. It’s been a tough journey but I am glad to say the worst of it is over. At the moment am surrounded by those who matter to me and I am doing meaningful things. Truly thankful that God has returned me to such a state.  In this season of Good Friday and Easter the word Vanguard comes to mind. Maybe it’s that season of life where God is exactly that for me, where we will be together in uncharted battlegrounds in both personal and professional life.  Not too sure when my next post will be but hope the next will be better than the last. Until next time!

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.
