Noein

An update on the week that has just passed... It was tiring of course, but a lot more bearable than the previous week. No really definitive moments after my tuesday post... But I'm getting used to all the lecturers and their styles.

A couple of simple things that happened along the way:
1. Wednesday: Went for Roman's teaching chapter 4-5.
2. Thursday: Went for YE Meeting
3. Friday: Lead in SYC for the topic on Passion
4. Saturday: After YE went to my cousin's new house, The Pinnacle @ Duxton
5. Sunday: Played for main

Out of these few I'll highlight the last 3. The teaching on passion was exceptionally beneficial for me, definitely facilitating the discussion on certain topics you learn the most about it. I suppose I'm not a very passionate person, but after thinking about it I shall try to be as passionate as I can be for everything that I do, even though I don't outwardly show it. Its only fitting as a way to show my love for God for everything He's placed in my life, even the seemingly mundane. And I believe having passion will be part of the solution for me being too hard on myself... Only time will tell whether it'll work out.

As for points 4 and 5... I'm really enjoying myself playing in main. Today as I played the songs for the kids - Jesus you are so good and I love you Jesus, I really expressed these things without inhibition as I played, which was a really special experience for me. Visiting my cousins house was another great experience, with gardens on the 25th and 50th floors, even though its a hdb flat. I would've been able to spend hours in the gardens just looking at the view and enjoying the feel of the breeze. Wanna go back there to visit them again one day.


Finally, I'm now watching an anime called Noein. Very very interesting, and its of the sci-fi genre. Basically in the anime many alternate dimensions exist, and in one of them people are forced to live underground as unknown dimensional monsters begin attacking that world. The people of that world are forced to look in different dimensions for something called the Dragon's Torque, something that can detect and alter dimensions to save themselves. They chance upon in a dimension set 15 years in the past, and some people are sent to retrieve it... The people from the future meet themselves from the past... And the rest you've gotta watch for yourself.

Makes me wanna meet myself from 15 years in the future, or perhaps 15 years in the past. An interesting concept, don't you think. Maybe I'll be able to? When I'm 15 years older and read this blog once over.

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.
