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.

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.
