Melancholy

Its been two rather tough, intense weeks in a row... The previous week was pretty alright, with the most difficult thing being studying for tests... This week that just passed was exceptionally taxing, with late nights of sleeping from studying coupled with needing to wake up early to fetch darren to his camp, and needing to chair the YE leader's meeting.  It's been tiring but as usual God is faithful!

Right now I was hoping I could rest but next week there're 2 presentations and an assignment in store, so gotta settle one of the presentations within the weekend, plus I need to teach in YE in the weekend. It'll be another rush to the weekend perhaps, but after that the next 2 weeks are relatively much more relaxed until week 12 and 13, where all the deadlines rush in hmm...

Well asides from being tired I'm still working on the Fantasie Impromptu, finally finishing the 3rd page and moving into the 4th. The tough part of it is pretty much through with, and I think I can continue on a roll. As for anime... My old series has finished, and now next on my list is the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, which should be rather interesting. Not too sure what it's about, but it is pretty popular hmm I'll watch it and see what its like!

I'll keep pressing on, and things will only get more relaxed! =)

Thinking about the future, I really don't want to be a workaholic at all, its not a life that I'd like. I'd much rather have a simple job, have simple pleasures, and live simply. But we'll see, we'll see!

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,...

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...
