OUV

Back from camp: the 43rd signal road relay just ended, and 8 SIG ended up as tug of war champions! Hurray...

Well this past week went for OUV familiarisation, which allows me to drive a new kind of vehicle thats pretty nice. Auto transmission, air con, easy control... Its pretty easy to drive even though the size of its bonnet is big. My instructor was really nice and funny. There wasn't a dull moment during the course.

As a result of my driving around for the last week for signal anniversary stuffs I've been awarded a total of 3 off days... Wow! Taking my total tally to 8.5. Sweet. Doing saikang really pays off.

Getting sick tho. After getting stuck in the rain on monday, I'm having a cold. Not very bad one, but irritating enough.

Oh and heard about the news.... Poor Triple. =( Hope Gerald and his mom are doing fine.

I'm now doing a couple of bible studies about suffering, and recieving God's comfort... Various aspects of it and how to deal with it, and the mentality to have when bad things happen. Most importantly how to make yourself feel loved even in the situation you're in. One thing I know is that one of the most powerful things to do when sad is look at Psalms, and pray. One of the most beautiful ones for reference is Psalm 6.

Although it refers to other kinds of suffering like having enemies and such, I think we can all have comfort in the fact that in the end, we will have the confidence to say what David said, after we pray about our suffering: "The LORD has heard my prayer!".

Anyways... Have fun during the coming week. Don't fall sick like I did. =)

Genus 2005

Genus Concert went just fine... NUS Guitar Ensemble is really proded! I want to be like that! Lets see... The guitars I want to master are Acoustic, Bass and Classical! Yeah. Actually this year's Genus concert was a bit interesting. They played a Japanese song and some jazz, but most pieces were classical. The Alto runs were really fast. I could tell that the Guitaron player was good too... Saw Josh there! He was there with his HCJCGE Friends. He was sitting in the row in front of mine. Slept on the bus today and missed the loop. Haha. Well. Had to alight, cross the street and take the bus again. And theres this ulcer right in the middle of my middle lip. It hurts whenever I eat something. But I need my food... Ow. I think the heatiness I get from sleeping less hours caused the ulcer. Looking forward to I-Learning. Can sleep more. Haha. Champions League was crazy. I woke up and went to school to hear the results. ManU Lost 2-0 on aggregate to Ac Milan. Barcelona lost to Chelsea 4-5...

Of God and Demons

Now that'd I've put my last phase of life past me and have some more time to reflect cos I'm C+ for the second time, I feel that it's the correct time to do a bit more reflection about my past, especially the last couple of years. I've always thought that one of the counseling exercises practiced would be helpful for me to process what I've been going through - that is to personify my negative emotions. In a sense to experience that final bit of release from these emotions that have threatened me for a long time. To talk about the inner demons that I've been facing.  Wrath. The fiercest of them all, yet gentlemanly in some ways, calculative in others. People usually imagine wrath to be brawny, in your face and belligerent. But my Wrath is more sinister, sly even. Plotting the downfall of my enemies and using the knowledge that I have to exact vengeance. Over the months I have exerted control of him by reminding myself that only God has the right to judge.

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.
