Reliance

Haven't been sleeping well for the past few days... Cos of the excitement of uni, and thinking about how lectures and school life will go. Some nights I'd just lie in bed running through the things I'd do in school like buying texts, walking from place to place and things like that. (Good thing my lectures are in the afternoon...) It reminds me of how much I've chosen not to rely on God enough, instead taking a lot of the freedom I have into my own hands. Regrettably, uni's not doing a ton of good to my relationship with Him... A little upset that before I read through my notes, and run through my to-do-list I've stopped asking Him for guidance.

Starting to understand how people can lose their way spiritually in uni. A place where you have to grasp everything yourself, from your social life, to your learning, to the way you plan your schedule. Its way too easy to neglect God and lead your life the way you plan it. I've got to be more aware of the devil creeping in...

Am proud to say though that I've not been lost at all whilst in school though its my first week. The signs around were pretty much clear enough to direct me to the places I needed to be. And I've already started getting around without using the signs even.

Well lectures. Enjoyed myself at some of them. History and Social Work lecturers were really good because of the lecturers. I love how my Jap lecturer will suddenly break out in japanese whilst speaking english, and how she's so enthusiastic. Stats lecturer has this funny HK accent and tends to repeat himself, but he's a great guy. Looking forward to more!

Time to just let go and let God work in my life!

Other stuffs of note that I won't elaborate on: Praise GEM prayer, BB Helping, Tutorial Bidding.

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!
