Kicking On!

Uni is 2 weeks away but I've been to campus for 3 days this week already and again tomorrow. I guess in a sense it's good cos I can get back into the habit of waking up early (3 days starting at 9am in S1? suX0r!) and also suss out the deteriorating peak-hour traffic condition along Victoria Rd. Man, it's bad. Take yesterday for example. Caught the express bus at 7:45 and got to the city at 9:15. 1.5 hrs to travel 15kms? I say it's time to plant cops along Victoria Rd on a regular basis and catch those bastards breaking the T3 transit lane rule or better still, implement a bus-only lane.

Anyway, went in to do thesis on Tuesday. We made some progress but not much so there's nothing really to write about. Have approx 15 wks till it's due. The countdown begins.

Yesterday and today was Kick-On conference with the theme 'running the race' and personally, alot of positives came out:
-Learning from 2 Timothy.
-Planning for O-day,O-week and getting a preview of the CBS program this year.
-Praying not just for CBS but other AFES groups around the country.
-Meeting and enjoying fellowship with people from other faculty groups. Turns out one of the MTS workers in FOCUS will be my TELE4363 tutor this session!

So that was the planning/learning part. Now comes the application bit. Tomorrow is O-day and then next week is O-week. It'll be exciting to welcome first years and get people to sign up to CBS but also challenging not knowing what might lie ahead (program going pear-shaped or finding it difficult/discouraged doing walk-ups). I think it's times like these where we as Christians stop and acknowledge that it's God who is in control of the whole show and we are his sidekicks who have the privilege of serving Him.
