Disappointed...

Hmm... I seriously am very disappointed with the attitude within the PoP band. Really. Well, on Friday, you know what happened. That one I still could accept. Just one thing to say about that. No matter how pissed you are, concentrate on God and it'll be fine ok? The big disappointment was on Saturday. Where was all the focus? On the sound quality or God? Where was all the faith? In the drain. Where was all the love? Lost at that one period I guess. Bah. Every single thing we do should be for God, not for ourselves. Even if the sound quality is lousy, even if its good, even if we do it downstairs, even if we do it upstairs... God will do his will. Does it really matter where we do it? No. I just don't get why there was even a discussion. Thinking too much about technicalities instead of God proves something. We aren't taking enough time to examine ourselves as a band for Christ. Instead we think about other kinds of stuff. Wordly stuff. Well... Sorry. Didn't mean to be this blunt.

MINDs... Well. My buddy was really nice. Just that he was mute. And we had a bit of trouble communicating. Otherwise, he was really fun to be with. He just has that smile that really calms me down... After Friday, it was quite a breath of fresh air you know? Finally I have some point of time to just relax. He liked soccer too! And he liked athletic stuff, just like me. And he really believed that there was something out there watching out for him no matter where he went. Although he couldn't understand the concept of God. For some reason, although we couldn't communicate, we were real close, like real friends. It got me thinking. Disabled people have more faith on something than we do. Isn't that an embarrassment? Bah.

Well, during YE, tried to act happy, but I wasn't. But it worked though. I don't think the respect I had for some people initially would come back so fast. But I don't think this disappointment would put a stop to the relationship between God and me. Never. Thats the reason why I was still in the room doing worship. Instead of just skipping YE all together.

One thing that I realised about myself is that I'm truly following the path that I believe God has set out for me. Its making me into someone who puts God first, and not anything else. Thats how I saw the flaws in others. Thats how I can be such a "nice guy" even in or after ugly situations. My focus isn't on the people who disappoint, its on God. And I'm happy the way I am now. Really.

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.
