I've found a friend who died for me

Back from Hiatus... Been nearly one and half month since i last blogged..

I have reached the end of my first year in uni.. Looking back, time sure really flies.. I could still remember that i was prep-ing for uni admission one yr back.. Matri card n administration, my first orientation camp, hsoc, 1st week of academic sem (no tutorial), IBG, dnd & pageant, MAF, sports (rugby, hockey n softball), recess week, exam, endless nights in front of the study table, late runs at night, IHG, Cheer and Dance, Cultural Night, more mugging...

i could not believe a yr just passed like that.. I enjoyed my time in NTU n Hall, but i guess the biggest joy doesnt comes from these 2.. Its the ppl i have outside NTU that make my day on gloomy days..

strangely, despite becoming more hectic due to my heavy involvement in hall, i manage to always find some time to spend with church brothers.. This past one yr we get to see the return of hanzong.. I'm grateful to God for that.. I thought we have lost him, but God has His way of recovering His lost sheep.. In fact, we are meeting now very frequent on top of the usual sat n sun fellowship n service/sunday sch.. We always enjoy our conversation together.. On the other hand, i guess the attention to get hz back with us should be transferred to terrence.. edmund too, we dun really get to see much of him nowdays.. i wan to get junjie n jianliang more involved in our grp too, though i cant really find a common topic with junjie..

xin graduated from NUS.. Her decision to enter childcare was a rather big decision.. No matter wad her decision is, i strongly believe we (cj, ying, mel n me) will support her.. With her passion n determination, her dream of opening her own childcare centre will be achieved.. Only thing is, i dun want to be her her workplace.. Kids drive me crazy..

I'm absolutely sure that these are the 2 grps of ppl that will follow with me for the rest of my life..

Have been pretty hot-headed with my dad lately.. Our conversation always ended up badly.. I hoped things will improve slowly again.. Sometimes, we take ppl for granted, esp the close ones, when we stay together.. Things were much better when i was still in hall..

I found a new passion during this period of time: the korean craze.. i cant believe i was also swept along but the kpop fever.. 2 months ago, i bet that i could not even differentiate the girls in snsd.. They looked the same to me.. N now, im constantly watching korean variety/ reality shows, hooked up with their songs n dances.. So much from abstaining free the kpop groups n craze..(but i really korean fashion sense) bye bye japan..

While watching this particular korean reality show (We Got Married), it brought my attention abt "married couples" in the show.. The concept of the show is to bring 2 celebrities together through a fake marriage and live as married couple, going through wad a real couple do in life.. While i do enjoy this show (for its comedy and creativity), it often makes me ponder abt how much is this show is scripted.. Scripted as in, is the show truly reflecting the real celebrities in life??? Sometime, the show portrays marriage way too simplified n beautiful.. There are also instances where marriage values are blurred, roles btw husband n wife confused.. I too wondered if the feelings the "couples" had in the show stays within the recording only.. Watching such shows also kinda twisted my idea of ideal partner in future.. Guess this explains why lesser ppl are getting married nowdays due to influence from mass media, where ppl get unrealistic expectations for their future spouse based on the pretty pictures painted by such sources..

hmmmm... lacking of inspiration to blog.. guess because im pretty contended with my current lifestyle??? Think its a bad thing as complacency kicks in.. Just like what happened to King David.. Maybe i need a gd kick in the butt by God soon???

Why seek for the impossible when the Good has been laid out right before you
