Atarashi

Well, as the title says, its a new semester and a whole lot of new experiences I'm going through!

I've made quite a lot of new friends in the tutorials that officially started this week (since last week was CNY week). Its another benefit of being new to certain modules. For example for my Japanese module... Cos I'm not taking with my previous cohort of people who've been taking Japanese with me all this while. So made quite a few new friends in Japanese tutorials, not to mention my other psych tutorials and my SS. Also met a few old friends... Eileen, Rui Xiong, Hyqel for example! Also met people like Dan and Shaun in school. :)

So some updates on school life. Its gotten pretty hectic after my tutorials are added in. For odd weeks, things are relatively calm and easy going except for a 10-8pm day on Thursdays. For even weeks it gets slightly harder, when I have a 10-8pm day on Wednesdays as well. Also, its my first time having to rush from Utown to the Arts Faculty, and the traffic and congestion does take its toll on those days. Besides that only have 2 hours of lessons on tuesdays and 1 hour on fridays! So pretty alright after all! Also, I'm around 4 days in front of my readings and tutorial preparations so everything's pretty smooth sailing so far.

Halfway through Thessalonians so far, and just reached 1 Thess chapter 5. Its been a rather good series of learning for my qt, and sharing it with Van is making it very very meaningful. And as I support her through SERVE I'm reminded of my own experiences, and I look forward to keep seeing her growth and supporting her through it. Not being able to date her for too long of a time cos of our busy schedules is a little tough for both of us, but one thing I've learnt is where all my priorities lie, and how to put her before my work in school.

I've finally finished GTA4, and I'm only left with one last trophy to get: finishing the game within 30 hours, which I believe should be no prob! After this shall continue on Assassin's Creed Revelations! On the anime front my list has reached 123 anime so far... And I'm scouting for new series to watch! Ah one last update... I've finally reached page 2 of Chopin's Revolutionary Etude.

So that's all for updates so far. Can kinda predict that posts will come on a weekly basis and no faster than that, cos I might be in a tired state in the middle of the week. =P But no worries as usual I'm trusting on God to bring me through all of it like He's done from the beginning!

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.
