Heart Creuz

I've been posted to a new unit: 8th Signal Battalion. What we do there is quite a big secret, so I'm in no position to reveal anything. But knowing military secrets makes me feel very comfortable haha.

Right now I'm in a phase of unit life called the Unit Induction Programme. Its the toughest part of unit life, where you learn all the chim equipment and procedures, and your privileges like walking to cookhouse, eating extra food from the vending machines, listening to MP3s and going to bunk early get cancelled. Because of the studying till late hours, while feeling very bored it gets quite tough on your mind.

However, my current unit life isn't all that bleak: after I finish UIP I'll have access to the computers, be able to bring all sorts of things to camp, go to bunk early to rest, play soccer, go to the gym, use the vending machines and what not.

Alpha weekend was very very good for me. It was a time of renewal, a time of obtaining the peace of the holy spirit, and a time to worship God with the right mindset again. Ben's back! Took a couple of pics, my first few in a very long time. Looking back, I've seen the holy spirit move in my life and my ministry many times.

And I now can clearly see that whenever I come to a realisation of my mistakes I've made and write them down here, it was because the holy spirit convicted me to do so. Whenever I face difficult circumstances, the holy spirit pulls me through them. Whenever I worship the Lord with all my heart and soul, the holy spirit sends a wave of coldness through me and makes me want to cry; he tells me he's there. Thats the power of the holy spirit.

Have finally finished the Trinity Blood series, and it was really good. For those who like vampires, go find it at the last page of www.anime-rising.info.com and click on the relevant links.

What is it about? The story is set in the future, and it begins when humans, fearing inadequate space to live on earth, decide to colonize Mars. In the process they find nanomachines called Bacillus, and are infected by it, causing them to become sentient vampires also known as Methuselah. When they return to earth, the differences between the Methuselah and humans spark off an apocalyptic war.

900 years after the war, the hatred between the races is eminent, and the only thing that prevents another full scale war is the presence of the Vatican. However, there is a society called the Rosencreuz Orden that desires for the destruction of the world. Inciting unrest, they try and turn the 2 now peaceful races against each other.

The story's main protagonist is a wandering priest by the name of Abel Nightroad, who is actually more than he seems... And when he meets a young nun by the name of Esther Blanchett, things start to change... The unfolding of new era, slowly and surely begins...

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!
