so it's been 3 weeks.

work has been particular frustrating, not because it's especially difficult or frenetic, but that it's characterized by a nauseating, "armyesque" tediousness and mundaneness. honestly, i do feel like complaining, but on realising that (a) it's neither the fault of my nice colleagues, mentors or buddies but rather, the system (b) i kinda really have to suck it up since i obviously can't quit, and being a soppy miserable twat ain't gonna improve anything, i think i better just adopt a new attitude. =)

but wow. no wonder people don't like working once they've started. thankfully i still have 2 more years to considerable bliss. yippee! thing is, even if u do nothing much @ work, monday blues are still excruciating and you just feel apeshit tired after every day of work that one can't function properly except to head home eagerly and collaspe on the sofa or something. geez, dun get me started (weeping) on my fitness. =(

aniwez, i think the last waves of reverse culture shock has all but ebbed away as I prepare to be completely assimilated into the singapore culture. already, i'm starting to 'talk' right. lol.

this weekend was my church's 35th mission convention and lemme just say, for a small church like mine, contributing 13 million in 35 years and being so faithful in missions is no small boast. but well, glory to God. =)

i feel like i've learnt so much and have grown so much closer to God this year.wow. thank God! i'm starting to see how beautiful heaven is, how urgent the 'mission' is and how everything is beautiful in God's time. more updates to follow if things actually come to pass. the thing is, i think its really a paradigm shift, where i realise the importance of God's work as compared to everything else. =)

alright.. that's enough of updates now. i really need to bring my camera round to take pictures of singapore scenescape. it's.. so architecturally invigorating.

oh. and i love my music, thanks to ruckus. and i cannot live without surfthechannel. =) lol.
