New Sem

And so bidding is finished, and I've got all the modules I want! Here's a brief description of each.

1. PL 3232 - Biological Psychology

This is the bio part of psych (duh), focusing on how brain and body function determines a person's thoughts and behaviours. I'm quite looking forward to this, cos it's a merger of 2 of my favourite topics of study... How does the structure and functions of my brain make me different from anyone else in the world?

2. PL3233 - Cognitive Psychology

How do people think logically? What are their thought processes? How does the brain understand stimuli like light waves, sound and touch? These are the questions to find answers to here in this module.

3. JS1101E - Intro to Japanese Studies

Here's another one I'm looking forward to... It'll make my trips to the land of the rising sun a lot more meaningful than they have already been. Wonder what exactly they'll cover in the lectures. Exciting!

4. LAJ 2201 - Japanese 2

Finally gonna learn how to speak non formally... Enjoyed jap 1 thoroughly and scored well, so I figured I'd do Jap 2 as well! With my passion it should go great! Need to find old lecture and tutorial friends though!

5. GEK 1519 - Science of Music

This is a combi of music theory and physics... Which is pretty cool! After all the long years of doing piano, guitar, bass I'm finally studying in depth about it. It will be useful in YE or main's context I believe, to improve some of the facilities and equipment and such. Some more this module is non examinable! Bonus bonus!

This sem looks slightly less intense than the previous... So looking forward to 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.
