It's all Greek to me !

Literally ... signed up for Greek 1 at BGST this week. Trying to finish up 6 months' worth in 3 months by private study.

Just finished the first lesson last night while on call. Okay ... memorised the alphabet and a couple of greeting words. A little apprehensive about the actual grammar though - hope it will not be as difficult as Hebrew...

Also realised my Greek tutor is also Pastor Tim's relative ! Small world !

I think I will settle for one module this time round instead of 2 ... It was a whirlwind previous 3 months trying to juggle work, church and 2 full modules. Thank God for His strength!

Alpha ... beta ... gamma ... delta ...

A New Old Classmate !

Guess what ? !

Was waiting at Novena last night for the rest for dinner before class when I bumped into an old classmate of mine who is currently studying at BGST ! Guess it won't be a lonely time after July, now that I've got company !

And yet another reminder last Sunday ... Some of us had lunch with our special speakers at Country Manna at Serangoon Gardens. One of them made 8 requests before God before she was convinced God had called her ... Aiyo ... Now I don't feel so bad I'm asking for (1) (2) (3) and (4) ... He he he

The body ain't as young

Sigh ... so what if I'm "young" at heart at 24 ?

Age and gravity does take a toll on the body. Working and taking up 2 modules is certainly taxing on both brain and brawn ...

Monday - Work. Class at 7 pm.
Tuesday - Work. Readings and homework for Thursday class.
Wednesday - Work. On call.
Thursday - Post call at 1. Class from 2-4. Cell group at 7.
Friday - Work. Readings and homework for Monday.
Sat/Sun - On call one of the days. The other day for rest.

I'm actually quite glad it's coming to an end by mid March.

But then, there's the 2 big papers to do by next week and the exam next Thursday ...

Can't wait.

Maybe I should go learn driving next month ...
