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.

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. De...

Aikatsu

Have been engaging in a couple of new interesting hobbies to liven things up.  First off, chess of which I've started diving into to learn opening strategies and as part of that have started to watch official tournaments. Good way to stretch my thinking muscles. Second, watching netflix series in alphabetical order. Never know what interesting gems you uncover. I'm partway through stuff starting with the number 2, and its quite amazing how much you find about other cultures from this. Upcoming is a movie called 2 Weeks in Lagos, I think will be interesting cos I will get to learn more about Nigeria. I last watched a movie called 2 States which was about the clash in cultures between North and South India.   Third, watching soccer for the thrill and excitement. Letting this blog live up to its name.  Fourth, PS4. Finally finishing of Tales of Berseria and starting on Assassins Creed Origins soon.  Fifth, anime - the usual stuff I have never gone without since thi...
