Blank Card

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 again, I am wrong. It has helped me treasure my friends, after missing all of them for long periods at once. It has helped me become content with what I have, making me much more optimistic. It has made me more strong willed, resilient and it has given me a better understanding of the world around me. Most importantly, it has taught me to persevere, like a good Christian soldier going into battle.

There are more ways I can become a better person in time, and I'm looking forward to the future. =)

Ok so my old hobby is coming back to me: jigsaw puzzle making. Right now I'm starting on a 1000 piece one with a lot of cats on it. Hopefully I'll be done over 2 book outs, and it'll be beautifully framed after that.

Besides that, chapter 1 of my story is finally complete, my study of katakana is also complete, and my brief study of the bible is almost complete, as I'm currently at Titus and just a few books away from Revelations. But as always, I'm rueing the fact that my memory of verses don't last for even 2 days. Gotta put in more effort.

Yup this week will be my ops manning week. Which is a dangerous week to go out, which explains all the unconfirmed plans and inability to commit fully to anything. Ops manning = need to report to camp at a moments notice just to take attendance.

So if I'm going out, I'll have my camp pass, army handphone with me and I'll be in my jeans, shoes, and would rather not do any physical activity or attend movies, plays or performances. Things I'd rather be doing would be pool, lan, breakfast, lunch, dinner or just hanging out at a food outlet/someone's house. (Preferably in the west)

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.
