Rurouni

Its quite a different experience spending a Good Friday and Easter Sunday in camp. Spent a bit of Easter sitting in the manning room with Weiliang listening to Christian songs, reflecting about all the good things that have happened. Knowing that no matter how big my sin is, Christ still triumphs over all of it overwhelmingly. Even though I was "not worth it" or so to say, He died for me. Thats more than enough for me. Everything else pales in comparison.

Thank You for the cross, Lord
Thank You for the price You paid.
Bearing all my sin and shame
In love You came
And gave amazing grace.

I suppose the reason that God chose for me to spend this important occasion in camp was not only to make it fresh, but also give me sometime alone with Him, in silence.

Todays the first time in a long time I manned the office overnight... Couldn't sleep much, but with His presence so strong I couldn't help but indulge in a time of lengthy prayer.

Well besides that, completed Rurouni Kenshin manga, and realised that the anime totally did not do justice to the manga. Especially since the anime never even touched on Kenshin's final answer to how he would atone for his sins for killing so many people, and never even showed the future of all the characters. I would say the anime is incomplete, and has way too many fillers. (The whole story plot after the Shishio Makoto arc isn't in the manga)


Some of the anime's host of lovable characters. =)

But despite all that written above, Rurouni Kenshin is still one of the top anime on my list to watch. Anime newbs, please go ahead and watch it, you won't regret it.

Besides these 2 things other things I did over the weekend include watching Marley and Me (which reminded me of Gerald), and You Me and Dupree. Thanks to Ethan who got the player from his sis. Played a bit of D&D and Monopoly to round it off.

3 days to book out! Route march to end it all off on wednesday. Can't wait.

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.
