Nocturne

And so, yet another post on a monday. Other days seem to be extremely busy haha. My studying for mid terms has just finished with abnormal psychology done yesterday, so all that's left is some form of recap and going for the exam. With the first paper at 6pm on tuesday, and the other 2 at 10am and 12noon on wednesday. Still keeping the faith in God's providence for those, whilst in the midst of studying.

As you can see from the title I've started on Chopin's Nocturne Op.9, No.2, the most famous of his nocturnes, and one you can hear very commonly in korean dramas or the such. I must say this is the piano piece I was rather looking forward to complete, even more so than Tristesse.

Besides that I've started on GTA4 as well as continuing an old project of mine: a completionist game of Dynasty Warriors 6, trying to get all characters to level 50. For GTA4 I'm doing it as nicely as I possibly can, obeying traffic rules and having a good, simple job driving my cousin's taxi for him. For story missions its a necessity to be violent, but I try my best not to be excessive. For Dynasty Warriors its part of my OCD to train characters in alphabetical order, and now I'm at Sun Quan, having finished Sun Jian.

One of my next submissions about the evaluation and developmental concepts of a toy of our choice is due on thursday, and project mates have been good. We've finished the bulk of it, with only citations and bibliography left to do. We'll complete it by today for sure.

Vanessa and I have only been able to meet 1 or 2 times per week at church, and I must say I miss her terribly despite us messaging each other. Its something that I've never felt before, and I'm still getting used to that emotion. One thing that really encourages me is that we're still incredibly close, and that I thank God immensely for. Sharing about our QT each night is a time that I look forward to every day, but I still can't wait to meet her more often during the hols. Less than 2 months till it ends... Its good that we're both really patient haha.

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.
