Carnival!

Well the thing that's been occupying my time ever since uni has ended is the carnival! So here's the details:

Church of the Good Shepherd
2 Dundee Road
31st May, 10am-6pm

I'll be in charge of the NERF shooting stall so do come down and support if you can! For YE stuffs the next important thing will be finding a camp venue, which will prove hard at this time hmm but shall try my best!

Besides that some updates on the employment front: so far I'm scheduled for an interview for the Youth Guidance Officer position at MSF on Friday at 10am, and this will be my first interview in quite some time! I hope I'll do well for it. I do have the passion for youth, but I'm afraid that my lack of experience with at-risk youth will go against me. Nevertheless, I'll just try my best and let God do the rest! Linked to that I've also been trying to contact people in MSF to ask about possible chances to volunteer at the Boys Home, and I hope that will help me understand and relate to this population of youth better! After having spent some years in youth ministry I've come to understand how delicate youth are: its a time where depending on the influences that surround them they could end up in difficult situations, and I believe that no matter what they've experienced they are capable of changing in wonderful ways to get back on the right path and fulfill their potential. I'd love to be a part of that!

Besides that, I'm considering taking up a part time job whilst waiting for the results, most likely at a board game cafe or so so that I can enjoy something that I've always wanted to start engaging in more!

The last thing to update about is leisure stuff: Detective Conan is still underway (at ep 360), so is Tales of Graces, and Chopin's op. 1. So the new thing will be a new youtube channel I'm watching: Game Theorists! A pretty interesting watch! Besides that I'm new on instagram! Do look for me if you're on it!

Well that's all for now! Hope to update more after the carnival but no guarantees!

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 ...

Gamble

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,...

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...
