Liberation

So I can finally write a blog post after a long and arduous journey through the last year of uni life. Boy was the last year of it so distracting with drawing me away from God. Just thinking back leaves a rather sour taste in my mouth when I should instead be tasting the sweetness of victory over this phase of my life. Oh well... The last exam ended yesterday, and I decided to leave quick because I really dislike goodbyes... Whilst I was on the way home I decided to be more proactive about maintaining my friendships I've gotten from uni, so I'll do just that!

The other exciting thing was playing drums for main service for the first time on Sunday... To be honest it was nerve wracking and I've never been so tense whilst playing an instrument in a while. And only God knows where I learnt how to play drums because I've never done it before. I can only attribute that to God's grace, Him knowing I need some encouragement by His empowerment. I thank God that things went well as I stepped forward in faith. I hope to never do it again but God has a sense of humour doesn't He!

The last thing is about job applications. I've applied to my first set of 4 jobs all from MSF, and I'm pretty stoked about one of them: the youth guidance officer. This'll be a job that will involve being role models to the teens in the boys and girls homes, and it'll definitely be challenging and rewarding. Really excited! And I'm quite grateful to Jon who recommended it to me, as once I saw it it jumped right out at me compared to all the other options I've been considering. And once again I can only think of it as God's provision and guidance.

Well, time for a little bit of break before I embark on some part time work whilst I wait upon the results of the job applications! I need it! Seems like a large sleep debt has mounted erp.

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...

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...
