I guess everything is returning to normal, as everything is now over finally. No more going home late, no more having dinners outside. I guess it takes some getting used to. But I'm so glad its over.

Recieved feedback that we did considerably well, especially for our last two songs. Today was Raffles Rock Elections. Actually maybe not. Its Raffles Rock PAP style walkover. There were only 6 people running for 5 positions, and I was the only one not from the exco there. Went down after doing GP essay to see what was happening, only to find out the exco had already been finalised.

Hahahaha. Chairman is none other than Samuel Lim, Vice-Chair is Jia Hua, Secretary is Lim Wei Ren, Treasurer is Gabriel and QM is MOCA. Congrats to everyone! Wish me luck for RJGE Exco. Hope to use this oppotunity to bridge relations between RJGE and RR.

Went to Swensens with Gabriel, Samuel Lim and Choon Wing to celebrate lots of stuff... Such as the Raffles Rock thing as well as Samuel's birthday that passed last week. Had lots of laughs. We ordered like 3 topless 5s to eat. We were having this funny convo...

Choon Wing: Hey guys lets go for rock climbing!
Me: Ehh... Why?
Choon Wing: Cos you wanna go rock outing what...
Me:...
Gab: Yo Sam, you know what?
Sam: Err what?
Gab: You've become a rocking chair! Hahaha.
Me: Ehh... Why you guys so lame one tell this kind of jokes...
Gab & Choon Wing: Lol you told us these jokes in the first place!
Me: O_o Oops jagggg.....

Actually it wasn't exactly like that. Just wanted to make it funnier. Hahaha.

Monday went for RJGE exco interviews. It was kinda fun cos we spent our time playing bridge/hearts outside the com labs. When it was my turn I went into room A, which contained Ronnie, Hongyue, Elaine, Serene and Yueyi. They asked me to play anything I wanted, then sight read a passage. Then they asked me about the classic RR vs RJGE thing. I knew what to say though. Other than that question no other things really intimidated me. And so I got through interviews. =) Time for speech! Its tomorrow...

Sunday was really the best main service I've had all year. Playing the bass didn't stop me from worshipping. All the songs were pretty much familiar so I didn't rely on scores. I just sang my heart out to him while playing. And Still finally made a comeback after less than 1 year. That was the best song of the lot.

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are king over the flood
I will be still know you are God

Liverpool 2 Chelsea 1!!! =) What else can I say.

Lastly, some commentary on social issues. Would like to talk about the MM vs journalists seminar thing that was on channel news asia. I think the reason why people don't apologize for what they do is cos even if they do apologize, they still wouldn't be forgiven.

Some people nowadays aren't forgiving enough. When people make mistakes and apologize for those mistakes they just chide them for what they did wrong instead of accepting the apology. These people that have been roughly brushed aside will think... Is this what I get for being sincerely apologetic. If so I'd rather not apologize. Hence this unapologetic mentality amongst Singaporeans today.

Why can't people just learn to forgive and get on with life? I just don't get it.

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...

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.
