My bros are at it again... Hogging the com till the wee hours of the night when everyone's sleeping. Giving me no chance to talk with people or to BLOG. Hmm... This complaint probably would last until the end of the holidays. I'll probably be repeating this everytime I meet people. In that case you guys better remind me if I start talking about it.

My social life's getting really restrained by the gastric problems. I missed the PSL Carnival, the soccer game on Friday and the bowling on Sunday. Hopefully I can go to Joel's farewell party tomorrow at Taka Seoul Garden. Bah. Auntie Sonia told me that the key to controlling the pain was to eat small portions of food every two to three hours. I'm trying that now, and thats working! I guess all I had to do was have more discipline in my eating habits. Hmm.... I'm getting hungry now. Better go and eat...

Oh well. I'm back. Friday was Founders Day. Just performed in the parade, then went to guitar room to slack, then went off without attending the ceremony and prize giving. Me, Hyqel and Jeremy were heading to the canteen exit, then caught sight of a teacher, so we started walking to the pool exit. Then we saw a prefect, so we walked to the main block exit and finally got out. Haha. Anyways, it was a boring day. We kinda discussed about our guitar concert and how we wanted it. Hyqel wants a band but we don't have a drummer or a female vocalist. Anybody up for the job? Jeremy said he wanted a female drummer as well! Haha. Anyone interested just call me or something.

Saturday... I went to Tims house with lots of people and had spaghetti and soup. Then we played Taboo and Risk. Me and Shirley formed and alliance which we stuck to until the end. Ernest lost first, got defeated by Ian. Then I gained control of South America and gave Shirley control of Africa. Then together, I and Kenneth defeated Hui Juan. Finally, Shirley, I and Kenneth teamed up to defeat Ian. Not bad! Hahaha. The key to playing risk is a mix of strategy and friendship. Forge a good friendship with other players from the start by giving them some headway or your friendship, and they'll join your cause. We totally got trashed by the older people in Taboo. Haha. Had to describe a G-String but I skipped it. Haha. Oh Yeah. I could have described it using a guitar. Bah.

Sunday. Well... Our cell did well. We came in second based on time but we were unranked based on points. Whats not fork, not george? Spoonbill! I guessed that one right. I helped in arranging the chinese stuff too.
Wished I could've joined you guys, but my stomach started hurting like crazy. Well... See you guys soon.

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,...

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 ...

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...
