Ippo

Hi guys... It's been a month or so since I last updated... Ever since tutorials began its been a whole lot of busyness in store for me, so much so that there are days when I've got to sleep rather late. My body clock's pretty strange now, and I think I have a sleep debt. But all that doesn't matter, compared to the joy I have giving my best to God everyday! :)

So, it's now break week, and I must say that it's a well deserved rest, after having to do lots of stuff for school, YE and other miscellaneous stuff.

Updates on leisure activities... I'm still stuck at the second page of the heroic polonaise, still playing alpha protocol, but what's new is that I'm watching a new anime: Hajime no Ippo, which is about a young boy who's bullied and decides to pick up boxing to find out what being strong truly means. Along the way, he gains Japan's Featherweight Title and is still on the process of learning what true strength means.

A rather inspiring anime to keep pushing towards what you want to achieve, with an attitude of never giving up! :D If only all of us can have this attitude when it comes to things of God... But I'm glad with the "I Promise" event that just passed, YE members were able to take their first step towards desiring more of God. The word Ippo in Japanese means one step, and I guess all of us in one way, took a step forwards, and that makes me happy. :D

Well, I'm not sure if I should promise more regular posting, cos I'll be swarmed once school starts again. :P But oh wells. :) Do check back to see what other posts I have. :D

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.
