title:{New Places}
Well. I think I got what I wished for in a weird sense. I'll just take whatever that comes. I'm part of Cantate Domino Risen Christ Choir. YAY. Haha. Powerful stuff. Had a first glimpse of the choir and how they integrate the songs with the mass. Then had a very very free/total/faithful/fruitful lunch and discussion session. Andrew seriously rocks big time. I gotta go join some Legion meeting then can see him more often.
Had the usual reunion dinner except this year, one element was missing. That was the River Hong Bao walk. I chose to forfeit it this year to try to finish up my tutorial. Everyday I get more panicky. I really really fear for my dear life that I'm gonna die big time, academically. At least for this semester. Haiz. Stress. Such an overly academic and elitist country. Apparently there's a new system that can detect dissident words in blogs. Let's test it out shall we. If in at least 2 months there is no posts. I think I can safely say I'm locked up in a holding cell somewhere.
Well. Saint in the making. I'm gonna do my best however I can. The little way. I hope I can survive the academic year. My grades damn lousy man. Haiz. Why does the world have to be so screwed up. Especially at this point of time. Grrr.

Omg. I can't believe I actually walked that distance. I can't believe I walked in Chinatown for like 2 or 3 hours. The spoils were good though. Bought half a kilo of mochi. Man those are good stuff. Haha the only great thing was the company I had eating cup noodles at Clark Quay. Haha its quite a fun idea. Imagine all the high class pubs and stuff, and a small group of people eating cup noodles by the river. Budget. That shows the extent of our recession.
Had CSC day 5. Its a day where residents of different volunteer programs get together and play some games. At the central forum. Well it was quite an interesting day. Made me realized CSC is a very chinese speaking community. Damn weird.

title:{First School Mass}
Well that was quite an eventful week for NUS. Lots of nonsense going on and lots of heavy schedule ahead. The thing to remember the most is of course, to pray. Lots and lots of prayer.
Attended my first CSS friday evening mass today. Well interesting lecture setting. Of course I had to give up the vivocity's Sushi Tei dinner. Haiz sad. I gained char kway teow and oyster as a trade off. Not too bad. The whole Holland Village hawker centre was like NUS dominated. GO CSS power lol.
I predict a very stressful semester ahead. Lots of modules, getting Baptised, wanting to join more CSC and CSS related activites. Seems pretty packed. And I haven't taken choir into account. Need to put certain things on hold for a while. Haiz my music is degrading. AGAIN. Not good sia. Need to find ways and means to practice. But then again, I doubt its important. Gotta concentrate on what is important at the moment and that's studies.

title:{Day Of Recollection}
Today was quite a very interesting. Had some sort of a mini retreat at Verbum Dei. Never heard of it before so its a new thing learnt today. And the person conducting was the Spiritual Director of SCI-CSS, Sr Sandra. Interesting sia.
It was quite a peaceful time. Though my mind turned a blank as I tried to reflect on the questions. Haha. Just blank. Oh wells. Super fun and inspiring day. Went to IKEA for a meatball lunch. YUMMY. Pricey, but YUMMY. Lol.

title:{Holy Start}
I had quite a interesting start to the New Year.
First it was a New years eve countdown mass at Immaculate Heart of Mary. Met one of my RCIA facilitators there. Thought I was gonna be alone. It was a rosary followed by mass.
Then new years day it was CSS gathering/CG meeting. Means some interesting sharing sessions on excerpts from the Bible.
Then 2nd of Jan was lunchtime mass at Cathedral, rosary, evening mass at Risen Christ. Oh okay, it guess its like on a quest to hit all the churches before the end of the year haha. Just got a book about many different Saints. As if I got time to read. Haha. I've been lazy when it comes to reading book. Still haven't even finish my body language book. Wow that sentence is very Singlish.
Oh wells. I got lots to read and freaking school's gonna start soon. Stupid bidding process. I tell you ar, it sucks big time. Supposed to get my modules in the end don't get. Lucky I got enough points this semester to fight for my cores. Last semester kena pwned in bidding process.
