A change in season to come

The second month of summer is coming to an end, and I very much look forward to the coming autumn.

Mon/Tue - Work in office as usual. Tuesday was a holiday in Malaysia. Play MonHun till late
Wed - Took my time waking up, because work starts late this day and so I headed to work at an event at 2:30pm for an Award Show. Went home by 2am/3am.
Thu - Work starts 12pm, I needed to head out by 10:30am, despite less sleep, I got out of bed with some extra time, so I went to Starbucks got some breakfast and coffee. Worked till 12am, reached home and was in bed by 2am.
Fri - Work starts at 9am, so even less sleep for me as I had to leave by 7:30am. Had breakfast onsite. Good thing I had PSV and wifi to keep me entertained during standby. Show went well with minor issues. Took home a free bottle of Bailey, yay. Show finished before 9pm, and I left at 9:30pm. Went for a taco and a beer before I head home.
Sat - Relax day, played some monhun, then connection got bad, so I watch anime, caught up on a lot of HxH. Went to Carrefour in the evening to buy stuff.
Sun - Church, had lunch with YP at Benjia. Went home a while, went to Starbucks and office to do some work, finished by 9pm, had dinner with colleague, went home and watched more HxH.

Easy sunny days and rain

It's no longer as hot and being under the sun feels good instead of scorching. It rain pretty heavy on Friday and a little bit on Sunday.

Just like last week and the week before, I can't remember the weekdays. With most my weekdays ever unchanging (go to office, come home, do nothing really) it's hardly worth remembering.
I just know I failed every night to sleep on time and ended up not sleeping enough and waking to alarm feeling like crap. I just have unspent energy so i'm not tired by bed time, since I don't exercise or anything. The game I played a lot this week was Monster Hunter: World.

Friday, I went to XTD again, manage to get up early to eat at Mr. Pancake before work. One of the projector light bulb is busted, didn't take long to replace it though. I finished before lunch time, so I thought I might as well head back to the office. I took the metro, and by the time I reached my stop, it was raining very heavily, in the end, I just went home and made last minute preparations for cell group.
Evening, went to cell group early, it was MingYang's last cell group and farewell. Had beef rendang.

Saturday, spent the whole day playing MonHun.

Sunday, went to church, had lunch at QianQiu, it was also the last day for MingYang before he heads to Sweden the next day. There was a beer festival that weekend and I wanted to go, but nobody was going so I didn't go in the end. Went home instead and played more MonHun.

Bored as heck

Mon to Wed, what even is this, same old same old, the days passed with nothing to do and it's really driving me nuts how bored I am at work, no one seems to be in the office as well.
Thursday, suddenly more people were in the office (wonder where they all were) and I've been given adequate work to do, I didn't have to wait around idly for hours today. Also, I'm concern about grandma...
Friday, didn't have to go office today (yay). Went to XTD for check up on projections. We finished fast and I got to go home early and chill for awhile until cell group. I manage to somehow scrounge up an idea for a member's farewell (with help) and those who attended this night signed the farewell card. Stayed a little longer than usual.
Saturday, bored the whole day, played some Nekopara and God of War challenges. Manage to clean my kitchen a little bit (I should really call the landlord to fix the fridge). Bought the new Monster Hunter: World, but only played it at night when my friends came online, we played till quite late.
Sunday, despite sleeping late, I managed to wake up fine for church, today's sermon was about the peace of God, the key point for me is about men in the bible that chose to ran away from God and find their own solution to their sins instead of turning towards to God (Adam hid naked, David's lust problem, Jonah ran, Peter's denial vs Judas betrayal).

(I notice my blog mostly cover my weekends, because nothing frikin' happens on the weekdays, how long until I fix this problem, hmm)

Half of summer

The past weekdays, did nothing in the day, played God of War after work, mostly just that.
Friday cell group, leader is away, had fried meehoon and we watched a movie about Paul and the prosecution of christians in Rome.
Saturday, was suppose to go out or something, but ended up just doing my usual saturday shtick, played God of War until evening, headed out for dinner, bought nice footwear for the summer, checked out a photo studio but couldn't find what i wanted for someone's farewell. Bought Thumper, game is a bit too hard and hard on the eyes.
Sunday, served in media, our cell group is highlighted this week. We went to a restaurant called 1965 for singaporean food. After lunch, hung out with Gracie for a bit, she's helping me out doing the farewell for our cell member. Bought shirt and short pants. Went home and finished God of War. Played a bit of Starbound and Thumper, then went to bed.
Monday, work, nothing again, came home, finished bits of God of War side quests, played Starbound.

Super uber bored week. No work whatsoever. I wish I had some work to do or short events to work on. I somehow just got through the whole day in the office doing almost nothing. Gotta find a goal to work towards to. What then shall I do? My desires are out of line, I need some spiritual help to realign my life.

July is almost over

The theme for the past week for me have been 'Keeping My Thoughts in Check'. A lot of in life is controlled by our thoughts, I can be overthinking things, making terrible assumptions or making up what-ifs. They don't do any good and cause unnecessary worry, depression and general negative feelings. It also causes me to fall into temptation.

Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things."

Friday, no CG but suppose to have dinner in some spanish restaurant, was really full so we went to a japanese restaurant next door. Just 4 of us though. Played a lot of God of War until very late.
Saturday, got out of bed a little late, but generally just enjoyed my day watching anime, and playing God of War. It started raining like crazy in the later afternoon, my area flooded a little, but I still had to go out for company dinner. At the dinner, I tried laying low, it worked and I didn't have to interact much with my drunk colleagues, except right at the end when one of them turned his focus on me, I entertained him anyway. I mostly just kept my boss's kid company, he's a nice kid.
On Sunday, went to church, after church had lunch at QianQiu, nothing out of the ordinary. After lunch, I went home and continue playing more GoW.
Monday(ytd) was Monday as usual.

Summer's gotten much warmer

Seems like I've been randomly spending money without really realising it, I've already depleted my withdrawal for this month. Some notes of where my money went:
My cousin from Melbourne visited me on Tuesday, I decided to treat him to dinner.
I bought a drawing tablet, God of War(just arrived ytd), that Muji shirt, and probably ate pricy food...

It was another slow week, I finished my games, so I didn't had much to do in my free time. Occasionally played Starbound, or just surf the web.
Friday was CG as usual, had chicken dinner. But Saturday was particularly awful, I really had nothing to do, I fired up some old steam games, but I was already done with them and it brought nothing new. I finally played AkibaStrip which had been in my backlog for quite some time, but it wasn't a fun game... I'm not sure how i made it through the day, out of the extreme boredom I spontaneously bought a ticket to see Skyscraper in a nearby cinema around dinner time.
Sunday was all right though, after church, I suggested we go to Global Harbour for lunch, after lunch we spent time at the arcade, which was a lot of fun.
Monday came and I finally got the motivation to book accommodation for my upcoming Sapporo trip. I also checked out the map and familiarised myself a little with the public transport.

It was a real rough week, I kept putting off things I needed to do and I just didn't want to do anything at all, all the free time also made me think too much and made myself sad. I struggled a lot with temptation this week too. I live in the house of the Lord now, a King has made a home for me in His castle.

A cool summer so far

This week, work continues in the office, no events yet. Being in the office makes the day feels long, so I have to change how I feel and I need to adapt better.
To summarise my work in the office this week, there were mainly 3 things I did: Preparing a PPT of our company staff's CV for coming events; Drawing resolution diagrams for ChongQing event; And fooling around with AutoCAD exercises.
In my free time after work, it's the usual, I caught up on some new seasonal anime, and played mostly A Hat in Time and Starbound. I've also finally finished Trails in the Sky SC.
Friday we had CG at Helen's place.
Saturday, had a relaxing day, started my day nice and slow. After a while, I got back to playing Hat in Time until dinner time. Went out for dinner for a change, stopped by the ATM, ate at Ajisen, then bought a few things at Carrefour. Had art inspiration during dinner. When I got home, I started drawing King Evan as Punished Snake, I felt that the two games operate in very similar ways.
Served on Sunday Church this week. Had an amazing lunch at Mocha Bros. Bought a shirt at Muji.

I also just bought a drawing tablet for the lulz. Hope it's good.
