Nostalgia

Looks like loads of people have already moved to tumblr... Aww feeling a little lonely here in the blogger blogosphere. Well, this platform of blogger has been around for ages, and its the first one I've started out with... Somehow losing all those archives is making me not switch to another permanent blog elsewhere. Then again... Reminds me of all the changes that I've never made. Facebook profile pics , msn address, email account, gaming nick, old notes and cards from friends, old piano and guitar books etc have been kept for such a long time.

Just shows how much I treasure my memories... For fear of them fading away I've kept these things close to me. Its strange how bad memories stay much longer than good ones... But to remind myself of the good things I've got this habit of keeping the old stuff. Each time I reread those old notes, letters, blog posts and what not, its a reminder of how far I've come.

Feeling pretty old right now. Mentally mostly, as if I'm thinking like an old man at the end of his life haha.

On a different note... Gintama is the part of my day which brightens it up the most, in addition to the good QTs I've been having. Its humour is rubbing off me I think. But then again, I don't really need help to become funnier from an anime series, cos I'm funny in my own way when I need to be... Right? Or maybe not.

But besides that, right now I'm glad God created laughter. Makes things a lot more easier for us on the earth with all that stress. Sometimes its just good to sit back and have a little laugh and enjoy the fun things in life, because its a blessing that God has given. Another great learning point drawn from the world of anime that I really appreciate.

Smile! =)

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 ...

Bakemonogatari

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!
