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!

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,...

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.
