"For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever."2 Cor 4: 17-18 (NLT)

DigiPen Semester 1 is over!
Work. Snack. Youtube.
Math homework left by dropouts.
Lectures were half as full towards the end of the semester.
Thor!
Amazing sculpture done by an artist from my school.

Candlelight.
Our souls ignite, like constellations of light.
In the darkest night, the fires of hearts burn bright.
All specs!
Beautiful morning. Gotta love Punggol scenery.
Heart-shaped cloud.
It was only much later after taking the picture that I discovered the heart shape =)
Honeystars madness!
Josiah came home with these humongous sacks of starry sweetness.
What up now, cereal guy?

The Final Lap

Thank God
5 Exams and Mission 1 is over!
Mission 2 will start in 3 weeks time, but that's a different story.
I feel a great deal lighter after last Friday; all assignments and projects submitted!
The biggest of which is the Game Project: 2 months of hard work!
Bryan and I practically worked till 2am almost every day on it.
We would camp overnight at his place every Thursday.
And finally, it is finished.
Do me a favor, play my game!
Drop me a message or something, and I'll pass it to you :)
The game: Swarm
In Swarm, you play as a alien monster fish that controls a hive of tiny minions, known as Swarmlings.
Much like a queen bee with her colony of bees, except in the seas.
Order your Swarmlings to attack marine life, while dodging their assaults.
Battle 7 different sea creatures! And Epic Bosses!
Many people found the game addictive - students, teachers, and friends!
All glory to God.
The journey was rough; there were days when I was losing it because of the physical tiredness, mental stress, and emotional weariness. I made plenty of mistakes - missed out on instructions, not submitting assignments properly, late for classes. Yet God helped me out. Friends will stop me from submitting wrongly and let me know what to submit. Lecturers would be gracious to let me submit later, or take a quiz that I missed.
It was God that helped me through my tests and papers - there were not a few papers when I got perfect/near perfect grade, which I knew I was not capable of. There was one paper which I was doing it wrongly. At the last few minutes of the test, someone asked my lecturer about the requirements of the paper, and I realized my mistake. Because of that, I rushed through to change my essay and wrote a ton of crap. I was shocked to get 98/100. God must have blinded his eyes.
There must have been a dozen of such instances.
It must be the grace of God.
Alright I gotta go sleep now, C Programming Exam coming up later!
God's grace is upon me to do well!

Much like a queen bee with her colony of bees, except in the seas.
Order your Swarmlings to attack marine life, while dodging their assaults.
The game features 3 different kind of Swarmlings, each with unique abilities.
Some will charge towards your enemies and devour them like Piranhas.
Others shoot bolts of energy from a safe distance.
Customize your ideal army with a combination of the 3.

Wake up and smile :)

There's this song from Owl City that speaks to me. Here's the last stanza:
This Is The Future by Owl City
And when you wake up on your own
Look around you 'cause you're not alone
Let your hopes go and they'll survive
'Cause this is the future and you are alive
You're headed home
Translation by Israel Chua
Wake up, wake up! Snap out of it!
People around you experience hardships too, some worse than yours.
Be loving, care for those around you. Don't be stuck in your own world of selfishness.
Let go, let God. Every seed that dies produces much fruit.
Thank God that you have a glorious future and destiny ahead!
Thank God that you are alive!

Scenic Sublime

Yes, I've been listening to Owl City again.
There's one exceptionally beautiful phrase in the song Fuzzy Blue Lights that I absolutely love: Scenic Sublime.
Man, how does the guy come up with such illustrative lyrics?
And this morning's weather most aptly portrays that phrase!
Melody meets Picturesque - the epitome of beauty.
