Challenge

Hi guys!

Well, once again its time for a post! Well its the 3rd week of uni, and already things are starting to get busy! Out of my 4 modules, the most relaxed one seems to be the one about Child Language Development, and its probably the only one without any weekly assessment! Things are different with the rest of my honors modules for this semester, which both require regular submissions every week. These submissions aren't too big, but every time they come around, need a fair dose of reading, thinking and reflection. Which is understandable, as counseling psychology and positive psychology are pretty much very application based and have to be internalized in a way! So right now I'm fairly challenged in a good way!

Also keeping me challenged and excited is the weekly leaders mentoring sessions... I've never thought I'd have the capability to teach to such an extent, preparing materials every other week, but its been successful to say the least! There's truth in the saying that the best way to learn is to teach, and I'm now becoming able to bring out my internalized values to the forefront to discuss them with others, something which I might not have learned otherwise without this experience! Also, I'm excited about YE, with what we're teaching them and guiding them towards, it spells a new era of spiritual flourishing, and that's what I'm most excited about!

Well moving on to leisure... What's more relaxing than an old school anime... And I'm going back to my roots, to one of the first anime I watched (although dubbed in Chinese), on par with the time that digimon was running... And that would be Cardcaptor Sakura! That's right, I'm going old school and watching it to completion this time! I've always liked the concept of beings dwelling in cards, as with yugioh and so on, each with their special personality and abilities. Looking forward to rewatching! Besides that, I'm tackling the ps3 behemoth that is Skyrim... And it seems easier to completionist compared to Oblivion, at least by my standards! I'm currently exploring the whole of the first hold of Whiterun, after which I'll finish all companion quests.

Life's good... And without us realizing it Vanessa and I have been together for 2 years and half a month. It's been an amazing journey, and I believe as we go deeper and deeper in Christ, things will only get better! She's currently the happiest I've ever seen her, and that I thank God for... Her journey in Christ has led her to a place of warmth in God's embrace, and now I'll accompany her as she works towards dealing with man and how to love her neighbor as herself. And I'm excited to see how God will work in her life! :)

Okies until the next post! Which will most likely be my updated anime list!

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,...

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 ...

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.
