Seek First

Ok ok once again I've left it late to blog and apologies for that! Amidst all the hustle and bustle of life its pretty tough to find some time to sit down, reflect about it properly and concoct a good post.

So I've officially gotten a job in the ministry of social and family development as an asst. manager of social assistance, and I'm so happy to have gotten a job in which I can help those in need. This job search experience holds a very special meaning for me, and showed me that indeed if we do seek the kingdom first, all these things will be added unto us! For me I chose to honour God by being sincere, open and upfront about myself, and choosing to do that gave me favour in the eyes of the interviewers and the job. I can't help but praise God because He's shown me His presence in my life and that by choosing Him first, He blesses abundantly. And He's also chosen to honour my decision in life to give my all to ministry, forsaking my desires to get internships, part time work and other methods of boosting my resume. I don't regret it one bit!

Besides that, my graduation ceremony was on Tuesday, and it quite cemented my dislike of formal events. For one being in a tie and gown was discomforting, and sitting through a long ceremony was not my cup of tea. But well I did it for my parents, to give them reassurance that they've done awesomely great as parents, and that I owe everything to them. A special moment for the family!

As for leisure stuff, I'm finishing my final touches on Tales of Graces, and hope to embark on Assassin's Creed 3 after. Just gotta get the final titles, finish the mixer and defeat all the bosses under 60 seconds! Anime's still as usual I'm at Conan ep 530+ hmm.

Also, Van's been to Bali and back, surviving a thief in the night, many insect bites and spicy food. I'm so glad to have her back and I've been missing her badly since the first week she was gone. And with her back she's found a new love for swimming (at least floating in the pool) and tempeh haha. We shall also go on a ramen expedition! So far we've visited Baikohken and Ippudo near UE Square! Hoping to bring her to Miharu at the Gallery Hotel next!

Well that's all for now! :D Will update about my job once I start.

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. 

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,...
