Sports Day

And so its been more than 2 weeks since I last blogged! Its been rather busy, and I thought this semester was going to be more relaxed. In fact, my first " graded submission" of sorts is already next monday, and its a presentation about a journal article which constitutes 12.5% of the grade. It'll only get busier, but I think its still alright!

So far the tough courses are by two core modules, my lab in cognitive psych and cognitive neuroscience, and surprisingly, my General Education Module on Chinese Heritage is proving to be rather heavy in terms of workload. The best module by far is Forensic Science, its quite relaxed, has no tutorials, and has little workload, so I'm thankful for that. I'm enjoying my Japanese classes too, learning new forms to use! Hoping that this semester I'll keep my faith strong and my heart focused!

So on Saturday was Gihon Sports Day, and the turnout was pretty good with 8 people turning up! We played badminton, pool, and watched a movie. I'm glad that Gihon now has a really good cell culture, and its thanks to the contribution of all the members to create this culture. Even the young ones relate to the older ones like brothers and sisters, and I'm glad for this level of relationship and fellowship. When I first started out on Gihon, this is what I hoped to achieve, but now on the next level more work needs to be done, and I'm looking forward to it!

Well, its also been one year since Vanessa and I started officially dating, and God has brought us through much, and is always reminding us to keep Him the center! We've been rather successful except some lapses, and I'm looking forward to more years with her! She's progressed much in finding her own true self in the time we were together, and I'm glad I could play a part in that. I do believe I'm doing my utmost as a Godly mate for her, and I'd like to keep it this way. Our dear friends, please continue to support and keep us accountable on this journey!

Lastly, I've started watching one of the oldest sentai anime: Saint Seiya! It's about a group of people called Saints who save the world from evil and go on a quest against the evil Arles to quash his evil ruling of the Saint Community. It is mega old school (some of their costumes are hilarious), and predictable, but enjoyable! Brought me back to the days of Power Rangers 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.

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.
