S03H

Prelims have just ended on a high note thanks to MCQ Papers. The journey hasn't been too rough for me... Finishing the last of the 13 papers I have to do was a relief, and I guess everyone else can say the same. 13 more left to freedom! Well... Won't discuss how I felt each paper went, cos I think it won't do much good to anyone.

Throughout the past two weeks, each and every day was a brand new journey with God, and I am glad I could experience Him in different wonderful and beautiful ways during the course of the exams. Right now... His presence is very very real to me. I have learnt not to dwell so much on success, failure and the uncertain future, but just on experiencing Him in my life on a daily basis. Because of this, I am satisfied, and I am not afraid.
No stress man!

Played soccer today to celebrate! Scored 2 sweet goals. One was poached and the other was a one v one against the keeper (Eugene Lee YX). Should've scored one more from a great Jon Muk throughpass. Whee gym sessions are keeping me quite sharp! Hooray.

Piano

Still keeping myself busy with this... Have one last recital, one more class performance and one more lesson to complete before I drop piano for the rest of the year. And I'm amazed that I kept it going for so long. 10 more days and I probably won't see my piano teacher for a long time after that.

Recital Piece List
Franz Joseph Haydn's Sonata in Eb Hob.49 3rd Movement
Isaac Albeniz's Cadiz

Woot my piano teacher wants me to play a guitar piece to end off with a bang. Good thing I've got that covered.

YE

Celebrated my Godsis's (Hazel's) birthday quite a few days back. Here are a couple of pics.


The Sakae conveyor belt. We were at the Wheelock Place branch.


Don't know why he's so intrigued by the conveyor belt. He's been to Sakae before. For those who don't know, he's my younger bro Daryl.


Random info: I'm anti wasabi.

Ok we are quite greedy. I kept grabbing plates of unagi sushi. Our stack of plates was the tallest in the restaurant.


Apologies for the plates obscuring the otherwise nice photo. Happy birthday Hazel!

Back to blogging. See you guys soon.

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 ...

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,...

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...
