Utter Respect

Utter respect. For the strength, integrity and resilience of the Japanese people even in the midst of all the happenings. For manga and anime followers like me it was expected for all of it to be put on halt... But the fact that manga and anime continue to be churned out by the hardworking authors, animators and publishers are a true testament to the resilience of the Japanese. I'll never look at them in the same light again.

Went for my Japanese Studies lecture and heard about the family situation of the lecturer's family, with some of his wife's relatives still missing, and others safe and sound. Could really hear the pain in his voice. And in some of my friends too. I may not understand the situation full well, but my support and prayers are with all of them, its the least I could do for such a great people.

On personal matters... Cognitive Psych paper is going well, just one para left and biblio to do. Just concerned that there's not enough content to explain the concepts effectively. A two page paper is really not enough to treat the topic in a proper light. However, all I can do is trust.

Speaking of trust, today was really expecting a very very tough day, but in my prayers just committed everything to God, and I suppose letting go really helps you enjoy the little blessings... My bio psych tut classmates giving out sweets (which I really needed for keeping awake) for answering questions to name an example. Really thankful for that.

Oh well this day will be long but I'll be alright. Later. =D

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.
