Tunes from You're Under Arrest, Boys Be, Ah My Goddess, Ayashi No Ceres, Akazukin Chacha, Ninku, Grander Musashi, Flame of Recca etc etc remind me of my childhood. Ah the days of AXN anime. Next post: In camp antics!

Whoo military driving course from 5th Dec onwards. Which means I'll have more off, but also means I'll miss 1 and a half days of camp. Looking forward to spending less on private lessons for driving heh. I think after the driving course I'll be a really really really good driver. Yay. Yesterday (actually more like today) I had a good time of prayer by torchlight. Maybe I should do it more often. Working on the 2nd chapter of my story. I'll be done by bookout. Here ends my short post. =)

Ok new updates to my links list, namely my friends from 8 SIG. Alvin aka Stifler, Yun Fun aka Fishz, and Selwyn aka R. All of us are pretty close thanks to anime and dota. And Stifler is the one who posts Tsukihime on onemanga. Yun Fun is sorta my brother. I call him nii-san. I think he can call me Kagebunshin or something. Right so on to confirmation. Its been awhile since I was reminded of it, ever since my bros had it. But this time helping out took me back to the good old days of sec 3 when I got confirmed. Pastor Joseph was talking about gifts given by the holy spirit, and looking back that was around then my talent in guitaring truly came out in full force. I attribute my guitar prowess to none other than the holy spirit who guides me. Yup and allow me to say a huge congratulations to all those getting confirmed. May the power of the holy spirit and its gifts allow you to bring God the glory he so deserves! *** So on saturday, I got activated. It was actually quite pre-empted, an

Thank God the exercise well. It wasn't perfect, but it showed the new OC our abilities and our hard work put into our training. I think I did rather well, handling the pressure and I was able to troubleshoot most of the problems happening in the comps and the server. A big thanks goes to my duty team for helping out and everyone supporting each other. I'm pretty stoked cos in a months time I'll be a soldier with one year of ns left, and everything is going pretty smoothly. In the past I wanted a posting without weekends burnt so badly, but one thing that God reminds me over and over again is the fact that everything happens for a reason. Thinking back I was a fool to think that everything would happen as I wanted it if I asked God sincerely. Now I know better. And now I'm a much more mature person. Once again, I've changed for the better. I thought that nothing good would come out of ns, and it was just a transition period into my next portion of life. But, once aga

Here I am in camp wondering how Ernest's doing in Brunei. Went around looking at blogs of those signal pals in Brunei, and even asked Yen Shan whether he knew any people were coming. And it seems like there are two camps in Brunei, one in some rural area (where the signallers are), and a different one in a slightly more populated area. (Which is where Ernest will most likely end up.) The news I've heard is that it'll be insanely boring, so I'm hoping and praying Ernie will still have a good time there. Reminds me about the section in 2 Tim 2 about soldiers, farmers and athletes. How they persevere and are focused on whatever they do, no matter how hard. Hope Ernie will be able to do the same! Anyways, here in camp theres quite a bit to do in terms of entertainment this week. They'll be screening a Pirates marathon in the office, and I've got a new game in my PSP: Valhalla Knights 2. Not to mention anime and manga to read/watch. My second exercise in 8 SIG is com

Its been ages since I've wanted to learn a song on guitar... But inspired by my RJGE roots, memories of yzyz and a huge anime song downloading frenzy I've come across one that I've always wanted to learn. Life - Yui (translation) Verse 1 It’s full of mud, that city I can’t get used to I can’t smile in the same way again I was looking down as I walked Fast-paced, the people who walk past each other “Has my dream come true?” I’m still struggling Pre-Chorus Rather than returning to my childhood days, I want to try to live well now Being afraid is human nature Chorus Come out into the place hit by sunlight If you tried to extend both hands I wonder if you could cross over that sky? I thought about something like that The wings used for flying away I still can’t see those yet Because I can’t go easily, I can keep on living Verse 2 Just by picking up the puppy that got wet For a little while, I could laugh until tears came out I want to love I only want to love I was saying that,

Heya everyone. Well theres nothing much for me to do now, since I've allocated this week to be a rest week. As little outings as possible. Last weeks duty was pretty dreary cos of F1; we had to stay in office till quite late with only limited sources of entertainment. Inadequate sleep. Nevertheless, managed to start work on my story, as well as finish Tsubasa, learn half of katakana, and learn to recognise various English names/nouns translated into Japanese. As always, starting on a new anime. (Well I won't say new cos it existed pretty long ago...) Realising that I've only watched small bits of it on AXN, I've chosen Ah! My Goddess. It seems theres a second season now as well. Looking forward to the feeling of nostalgia... Went to play boardgames + lan with the SYC peoples. Played a couple of nice funny games. Well I've been thinking what jobs I'd get after ORDing before I go to uni... And working at a board game cafe will be first choice! Second would be pian
