Bridging Lights Updates

Hey guys,

Recently, my friend introduced an Iphone game to me. This game was a no-brainer game where it allowed you to control the lives of the characters within the game. You are the god in this game and you have the opinion of sending these characters to the sharks, be struck by lighting, be strangled or be killed in other ways. As I was casually tossing a character to the sharks, I suddenly thought about the many games in the market that allow you to control characters - Sims, Black and White, etc. Why do we like to play these games? I suspect it's because we want to be in control of a lot of things. We want to be in control of who we want to marry, where we want to study, what I want to be in 50 years down the road, etc.

However, do you think it's better to let go and let God? Your will be done or my will be done? You decide.

Bridging Light Updates!

Hey guys,

Hooray! I finally passed in my first uni assignment today! It's a relief and a load of my shoulders to get that thing out of my face. Before I started my uni, a typical conversation between a uni student and me goes like this:

Past
Me: "How's life man?"
Uni student: "Tired. Just finished reading some materials. Next week handing up 2 more assignments..."
Me: "You serious? Uni can't be that bad ma..."

Present
Me: "How's life man?"
Uni student: "Tired. Just finished reading some materials. Next week handing up 2 more assignments..."
Me (patting the uni student on the shoulder and sniffing back my tears): "I totally understand..."

So for those who are having exams now, I must really say I totally understand your feelings. For those who are working, I totally understand your feelings too. It's always nice to be want to be at the other side of the fields, where the grass looks greener. Youths want to work to have money, adults want to study and not work for money. Trust me, I'm in the middle and both sides look good. It's just a matter of perspective =p
