Settled

Its taken me so long to finally properly settle down in my new job, and its now been 6 weeks in and counting! I must say I'm enjoying my time at work, although its filled with heart wrenching moments for the sake of some of the people I meet, and mixed in with a couple of stressful cases that need thorough hand holding, I must say this job is everything that I'd dreamed of doing. I never thought that on my first try I'd get a job which fit my personality, liking and abilities closely, with good superiors, colleagues and environment. All this I have to give thanks to God for.

When I asked my superior why I was chosen she just said I had the passion, and they wanted to give me a try... It was then it dawned on me how fortunate my circumstances were. And in retrospect, I got my new job whilst YE was toned down in terms of youth week... The timing was just too perfect, giving me time to get used to the job before YE picked up. And once again I learn the true meaning of Matthew 6, to not worry about tomorrow. 

There are some exciting things looming in the horizon, but I'm not sure if I can announce it. Has to do with my workplace! But one thing that just happened today was our office's monthly healthy living series, and we went to marina barrage to fly kites and play frisbee, among many other things. Talk about excellent work life balance haha! I still worried about my major cases but well sometimes a little break is in order!

Now that Van's started her internship new challenges of sleeping early are rising, and perhaps we need to do that for her sake! We both are learning about the challenges of a 9-6 job, and the need to change our sleep cycles loom above us... I'm pretty ok now but she's been having a headache from fatigue! Do pray for her yeah! :)

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,...
