Well Steve Irwin's death kinda shook everybody up. The most pitiful thing is that if the stingray barb hadn't pierced his heart he would've survived. Such is the frailty and unpredictability of life. Watched Click right after I heard the news, which kinda reinforced that point. Its quite sad that everything just passes by in a flash and you end up regretting everything. Wonder how Steve Irwin felt while he was dying.

Time to live life to the fullest! No worries, mate.

Matthew 6:25-27
"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"

Well in our case is worrying about promos and exams and studies and such.

Ok for the remainder of the time... I wanna thank the people who've supported me through those tough three weeks of angst and stress. I'm feeling much better already.

-Thanks YE people for good advice, prayer, lots of fun and company through the toughest times. You guys remind me that as I walk through the darkness and can't see anything, there are still people beside me that I know I can depend on to go towards the light.
-Thanks S03H for being so supporting and asking how I'm doing, it makes me smile especially when everyone breaks out of their cliques and give support to anyone.
-Thanks JPS people. Seeing you guys, no matter for how short a period of time made me remember of the times when we were so carefree. And I enjoy those memories.
-Thanks Eden-Sol for the prayers every single day, and for all those laughs. You guys are my source of strength every single morning.
-Thanks RJGE people for talking to me online. Even the most (seemingly) meaningless of convos always turn out to have something meaningful inside somewhere.

Thats all folks! Maybe I'll update some time soon.

P.S Darn I have to reload the phone pics software on my com again.

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.
