Level Up!

Well... Good news good news! Ben Low is now a Lance Corporal! Although its actually no biggie I'm actually glad my rank has been upped. Kinda feels like you've completed a quest or something. So I've added something to my to do list for the week.

Reminders to self:
Top up BBDC account
Start asking people out
Cooking
Go learn more sign language
Get lots of snacks and bring guitar into camp
Get new PSP memory card
Sew on IPPT and Rank on No.4

Yup so my first duty officially ended today. Its been great. Especially the weekends where we got to do anything that we wanted. Over the week quite a few exciting things happened... Such as the sergeants moving to our bunk, a new set of UIP signallers coming in, playing soccer, playing PSP, doing the laundry, AHM Briefing, watching Blood+ on the company comp, singing and playing songs to God at the balcony etc etc.

Off count: 4.5
Leave count: 7
Total rest days: 11.5

Excited about this coming weekend and the next duty weekend. Lots of interesting things are now happening. I'm a bit dizzy cos of it all but its a good thing I guess.

Schedule:
Thurs - Gym, BBDC, Lot 1, Cooking at home
Fri - Run, Meet Marcus, Meet Andrew
Sat - Gym, Sign Lang, prep no.4, worship prac/synthesis?, soccer!!!
Sun - AHM, worship prac, church, grandma's house
Mon - Gym, Prep for book in: print chords, get snacks, draw $$, anime spree

Pardon me... Cos from now on I'm gonna be using the blog to do a little bit of scheduling and management on top of all the reflections and stuff like that.

Besides that... EPL!

Arsenal 1 West Brom 0
Bolton 3 Stoke 1
Everton 2 Blackburn 3
Hull 2 Fulham 1
Middlesbrough 2 Tottenham 1
West Ham 2 Wigan 1
Sunderland 0 Liverpool 1
Chelsea 4 Portsmouth 0
Man U 1 Newcastle 1

The draw between Man U and Newcastle wasn't expected... And Hull, Boro and Blackburn surprised IMO. Go Hull! Underdogs rock.

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! 

Vox Humana

497th post. Its been a rather pleasant weekend, filled with Gihon and worship stuff. Really enjoyed myself baking with Gihon. Wished we could've taken a vid of everyone for Youth Day... Probably will have to meet them one day to film them haha. Probably will organise a homework doing session for them to complete everything before the hols end. Well Father's Day celebrations today went quite well... Only had a couple of hours to practise for the hoedown, and practise for the worship went comparatively better than the prac during camp. It was my first time playing piano/organ/keys/trumpets/vox for worship, and I'm glad it went ok, and I did it with God. Driving test is on friday... Not too worried about it, and also have no prob with failing it actually. Taking it easy, but hoping for good news. I guess its the peace that transcends all understanding thats taking over. And the most important thing for me for this test is not whether I pass or fail, but whether God was with me
