Brother's Birthday Dinner

Tonight after work, I came home and had a quick shower before going out to Maple Café for brother’s birthday dinner. He had his birthday dinner at the same venue last year as well.

Dinner

Jeff went to KL this arvo and reminded me via text message that he left the raw salmon in the fridge for me to eat.

Tonight mum went to my cousin George’s birthday and therefore there were only Aunty Alice, Chloe and I having dinner at home.

Aunty Alice does not eat raw salmon and therefore Chloe and I enjoyed savouring all these salmon.

Lunch

After church, Monica Leong suggested we went to JJ Western for lunch.

The rest of the people such as Andrew Tai, Rebecca Poong, Sophia Tsen, Andrew Chan, Henry Yong and Vanessa Loong went to Kedai Kopi Houng Kee.

Besides Monica and I, Jenny Wong also joined us.

I wanted to order Kon Lo Mee with wantons but both were sold out.

So I had the following.

After lunch, I went to Watson’s at Damai Point to look at some stuff and bumped into Andrew Chan. He told me Sophia, Vanessa and Lily Tan were having girls’ talk at that moment.

Upon leaving Watson’s, I went to Kedai Kopi Houng Kee to look for them but I did not see any of them.

I called Sophia and Lily but both did not answer my call. Afterwards Sophia told me she and Vanessa were at Cchat Room. I walked over there.

Later Lily joined us and we chit-chatted until after 4p.m. before going home.

Canaanland Mission Center

Alex Liau led P&W. Kenny Lim played the guitar. Alice Hiew was on the keyboard. Terrence Lim was on the drums. The backup singer were Elizabeth Chung, Cecilia Ng and Doreen Chieng.

The Facilitator was Chew Chong Bin.

The speaker was Janice Chin and her sermon was on the topic ‘Conspire in Christ’ based on 1 Thess. 5:12-18.

Dinner at Home

Jeff took the car after lunch and went to Telipok with mum to buy crabs.

They bought a lot.

Before coming home after fetching me from work, Jeff drove to Lotus Coffee Shop to take away chicken wings.

The Bible in One Year

I have been quite slack in my yearly bible reading.

I only managed to complete the whole reading for last year tonight.

Time to start from the beginning again.

Dinner at Home

CNY Visitation

After dropping off AK, I drove to Kepayan Ridge to visit my ex-collegue QLL and her family.

Her son who used to be very chubby six months back, had lost some weight.

I spent a few hours with them.

Brekky

This morning I went to fetch a friend AK, who lives in Beverly Hills Phase 3 Apartments at 9.30a.m. for brunch. I suggested we went to Kopi Ping since I knew that the shop is open.

I forgot that today is a normal working day and went to park at Damai Point. I only realised when I had to take out the parking ticket from the machine. I did not drive near the booth and therefore had to alight from the car. When I tried to open the car door, the lock was not working. Thank God for AK. She alighted from the car and collected the parking ticket for me. After I parked the car, the lock was working fine again.

The lady boss who knows AK was happy to see us.

I had the following.

AK had porridge.

We had a good time catching up with one another and AK treated me to brunch.

I drove her home.

Chew's Residence

I only went to the Chew’s Residence after 2p.m. Most people had already left by the time I arrived.

After everyone else left, Elizabeth & Jacelyn Chung and I chit-chatted with Shelley Chew until after 5p.m.

Brunch

Jeff woke up around 10.30a.m. and decided that he wanted to go for dim sum.

I wanted to try either Hyatt or Shang Palace at STAR but he wants to eat pork and so off we went to New WK Restaurant in Penampang. There were some people queuing up inside the restaurant near the stairs.

We waited for about 20mins before a table was available for us at the First Floor.

Each time the food came out, we had to ‘fight’ for them. When we wanted to order some more, none was available until we gave up and decided to leave.

Dinner at Cousin's House

For the past few years, I did not go my cousin’s CNY open house cos of the lectures given to me when a few of them gave me red packet. I just wanted to be spared from that kind of torture.

But this year some of them had gone to a nearby country to celebrate CNY and therefore I decided to go.

This time I did not receive any lecture.

I reckon if someone wanna give red packet, just give. If you feel like you do not want to give, don’t give. Give willingly and spare the lecture. We are all adults for goodness sake.

CNY Reunion Dinner

Nowadays having reunion dinner in chinese restaurants is an expensive affair cos most of them serve set meals and the choices are not that fantastic.

If I was given a choice, I would boycott them altogether and go for other restaurants instead or celebrate a day earlier.

Canaanland Mission Center

I went to Strawberry Cake House to collect the birthday cake for the lunch fellowship for Canaanland Mission Center.

I instructed everything that needed to be and left church to go to Damai Plaza Phase 4 to look for porridge to takeaway.

I should have started with Kopi Ping but instead I went elsewhere first and none of the shops were serving porridge. The last shop Kopi Ping has it.

I asked the lady boss how long they would be off for for CNY and she said just two days. At least I know where to go in case I had to go out to eat on the third day.

I took away porridge and went home.

Today's Happenings

This morning before I even drank the cup of Milo, I had already vomitted. After drinking the cup of Milo, I vomitted again.

I worked half day and took away Pan Mien but forgot to ask for Kon Lo. Therefore it was a bit tasteless since I do not like soup base much. After lunch, I vomitted and had diarrhea as well.

I left work just before 3p.m. to go to KKIA to fetch Jeff. He was coming home for CNY. I double parked outside the departure hall and had to move the car since a car had to come out.

I parked near the airport building and called Jeff to tell him to text me when he was exiting from the departure hall. After fetching him we went straight home.

Upon arriving home, I went to the loo again. I asked mum for some anti-diarrhea Chinese medicine.

I went to Servay Hypermarket at Plaza Juta and bought a box of mandarins for Canaanland Mission Center lunch fellowship tomorrow.

Before going home, I went to see Klinik Malaysia at Taman Bunga Raja to see the doctor. The Indian doc gave me three days of anti-biotic.

When I arrived home, I saw the following.

There were only four people eating dinner tonight and we had the following.
