I
thank God for a chance to pause and relax, even if just for a short while. The
trip to Awana and Genting was indeed well-timed and it was just so fun to hang
out with my good friends and chill, literally and figuratively.
Times
are hectic, but it all boils down to how much time you want to throw into your
studies, which will depend on what kind of grades you’re aiming for, which will
depend on your goals and motivations; whether you want to excel or not, it’s
all up to you.
I
want to do the best I can, with help from above.
There
has to be a balance, and it is right now. Settled pictures and collages and
uploads. A whole new set of lecture notes just came in, so it’s back to the
editing stage for me after this post.
Chinese
New Year is like tomorrow, and there will inevitably be lots of eating (No……).
My
whole body is aching after a 22-hour period of being awake, that included 3
hours of badminton, plus plenty of travelling, and walking around Genting on foot,
at 11:30pm to pass by the helipad. Hahaha. We were like chilling ourselves at
the Coffee Bean after walking to find it (circling Genting for half an hour).
As the years pass, the group that comes for our annual gathering gets smaller.
Sad, of course, but for those who come, the time spent together becomes even
more meaningful. After all, you can’t laugh about the times you played till 4am
laughing like crazy, not feeling sleepy despite the natural laws of energy
usage and defying the usual norms, to every one of your friends. Some friends
are more special than others.
God
has been good to me. I haven’t fallen sick. Neither have I been involved in
anything nasty or debilitating. My family is intact, strong and healthy. My
friends are comforting and supportive. The important ones are safe. There have
been many instances when there was divine intervention in the course of my
daily life. Prayer is a powerful weapon that we often underuse. Studies are
progressing at a good rate, which will be upped over the next 40 days up to the
period of the examination. My notes are going to finally come to the end – all 193
sets of notes. If I had not edited the notes, I would have had an extra 200 odd
hours to do other stuff. But I have no regrets. Edited notes are clearer and
easier to read, in addition to saving my paper and printer toner and reducing
my carrying weight. I constantly pray for wisdom and strength for I am unable
to survive without either attribute.
The
next week of holiday shall pose a challenge. Praise God for the determination
to continue to push on! Till then.
