Hmms. I just caught a lizard by the tail and it didn't drop its tail... Instead it kinda hung limp in my hand for awhile. When I sprinkled some water on it, it moved. And I thought it was dead... Haha. I let it go after that. I'm not so bad. I went around reading BLOGs today... Everyone seems kinda ok, you guys seem to be coping well with all the pressure. Having a good mix of fun and work. Yups. Try your best! Do God proud!

K. Scholarship Day... Was kinda disappointing. Nothing for me. No forensics scholarships offered. Although they said that I could try for Police Scholarship and hopefully its relevant to what the police wants... Never the less... For my aspirations, I'll do whatever I can! I'm not gonna give up so easily...

Monday. Assembly was very disappointing. I mean the performance, not the end. My mind just wasn't there in the hall I guess. I was thinking about RE... Anyways, went to Sam's house after school to do some work, as well as play Yu-Gi-Oh Cards and Fifa 2005. Samuel's good, but I forced him to a draw by using wall monsters and magic cards... Haha. K. Fifa was really fun. I used Valencia against Ming Hui and I lost 1-0, then won 1-0! Haha. And it was my first time playing! Then I used Barcelona, and I lost many many times to Samuel. Then all of sudden I realised how to use the controls effectively, so I finally managed to defend very well, and I held Samuel to a 0-0 draw. Not bad for a first...

I went to be an invigilator today. Yups. At my piano teacher's house. They were having mock practical exams. Some tips for your piano exam... Maybe for Hui Juan. Haha.

1. Don't be nervous, it'll just cause your tempo to be irregular and your hands to slip easier
2. Factor in the dynamics, otherwise, you'll never get past 24 upon 30
3. Put in your personal flair and emotions into the piece, and you'll get a distinction mark
4. Be polite to the examiner
5. Remember to adjust your chair before you start! Don't want to be in an awkward position...
6. Curve your fingers, don't forget your finger technique
7. When using the pedal, be careful when releasing. Sometimes it makes a horrible sound when released suddenly!

Yups. Thats all I can help with... It was fun invigilating! Haha.

National Day was boring... I was expecting Mahjong and Bridge at my grandma's house, but there was nothing. My cousins are all studying for tests and stuff. I need to study too, but I just don't find it that important... Yups... Work hard everyone!

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.
