Challenge

Hi guys!

Well, once again its time for a post! Well its the 3rd week of uni, and already things are starting to get busy! Out of my 4 modules, the most relaxed one seems to be the one about Child Language Development, and its probably the only one without any weekly assessment! Things are different with the rest of my honors modules for this semester, which both require regular submissions every week. These submissions aren't too big, but every time they come around, need a fair dose of reading, thinking and reflection. Which is understandable, as counseling psychology and positive psychology are pretty much very application based and have to be internalized in a way! So right now I'm fairly challenged in a good way!

Also keeping me challenged and excited is the weekly leaders mentoring sessions... I've never thought I'd have the capability to teach to such an extent, preparing materials every other week, but its been successful to say the least! There's truth in the saying that the best way to learn is to teach, and I'm now becoming able to bring out my internalized values to the forefront to discuss them with others, something which I might not have learned otherwise without this experience! Also, I'm excited about YE, with what we're teaching them and guiding them towards, it spells a new era of spiritual flourishing, and that's what I'm most excited about!

Well moving on to leisure... What's more relaxing than an old school anime... And I'm going back to my roots, to one of the first anime I watched (although dubbed in Chinese), on par with the time that digimon was running... And that would be Cardcaptor Sakura! That's right, I'm going old school and watching it to completion this time! I've always liked the concept of beings dwelling in cards, as with yugioh and so on, each with their special personality and abilities. Looking forward to rewatching! Besides that, I'm tackling the ps3 behemoth that is Skyrim... And it seems easier to completionist compared to Oblivion, at least by my standards! I'm currently exploring the whole of the first hold of Whiterun, after which I'll finish all companion quests.

Life's good... And without us realizing it Vanessa and I have been together for 2 years and half a month. It's been an amazing journey, and I believe as we go deeper and deeper in Christ, things will only get better! She's currently the happiest I've ever seen her, and that I thank God for... Her journey in Christ has led her to a place of warmth in God's embrace, and now I'll accompany her as she works towards dealing with man and how to love her neighbor as herself. And I'm excited to see how God will work in her life! :)

Okies until the next post! Which will most likely be my updated anime list!

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.

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.
