Chevrolet

Well, recently, especially this week there have been loads of changes to my lifestyle. Most notably the restarting of school. Just went down for lecture yesterday to my first developmental psychology lecture, which I expected to be rather dreary going, but was actually rather insightful! The bonus about it was that we got to watch some rather cute vids of children, which certainly was enjoyable.

Besides that, went to explore U-town with Dan, which was certainly impressive. The compound really does seem like a great place to live and study simultaneously. With a gigantic starbucks, koufu, fish and co express and other good stuff. Went up to Dan's room at the tembusu building, and got to see my lecture theater for my Food and Health module. The facilities are amazing, so can't wait to be there for lectures. =)

Other new things include a new car! As mentioned in previous posts my dad and I have been going to check out cars, and we've decided on one and have bought it! A yellow Chevrolet Aveo! I quite like the fact that the Chevrolet insignia looks like a cross. =D A pic for you: (its not the actual one though the plate on this one shows its from the UK)


And with that now my expenses are going to rise, so with that have also started a 40 dollar per hour tuition session, for 2 hours per session on wednesday evenings and sunday mornings. That'll cover a good bit of my fuel and maintenance costs, with a good bit to spare. However its only for around 2 months I believe, but God always does provide. =)

And the special thing about the car and tuition is that they're both really really big firsts, opening up whole new worlds that I've never ever explored yet. And I'm thankful to God for opening doors, its a really wonderful thing to know that He goes before, behind and with you!

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 ...

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!
