Contentment?

My cardiovascular system is strained once more.

I returned from church camp yesterday. The theme was "Godliness with Contentment". Overall the messages were useful, and I had chances to serve with the games and chairing a message. The food wasn't bad, but the flies were. The most ironic thing is that the resort is named 'Tiara Beach Resort' when it wasn't even next to the beach. Instead they had a large swimming pool with sandy grounds around.

I guess I'm a fairly content person, I take things as they come, from God and never worrying in excess. Yet for this reason I tend to have serious lack of ambition. Now that I have learnt that to be truly content also involves continuing to strive for the best utilisation of God's gifts, I hope I can apply it.

Recently I've been challenged. The CCA teacher tasked me with contacting a lecturer from NUS to invite to the Science & Tech centre in VJC to give a talk. It's hasn't been easy, I had to get through a few drafts: tending to type in an informative tone, I find it difficult to type invitations. Other than that, I'm still learning to cope with given responsibility, not assumed ones.

Lately I have been interested in learning how to do a back handspring. It certainly would be interesting to do that in combat with my brother. My analysis of the previous fights is that I am not dealing enough damage because I'm over-relying on my strength rather than techniques and agility, exposing me to the danger of his mass. Anyway, other than a back handspring, I wonder how difficult it is to perform a handstand? Or a somersault? lolx

Onto the upcoming exams, I am really unprepared as of now. I shall study later.
