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.

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.
