SCB Redemption

Today is the deadline for me to redeem about 13,000 points on my SCB credit card.

I managed to redeem 5 x RM10.00 of KFC/Pizza Hut/Ayamas vouchers.

Dinner

Since Choo Siow Chin will be going back to Tawau tonight, she, Lily Tan and I had early dinner at J’s Kitchen & Café.

Nice Surprises

Today I had two nice surprises. Both of them I did not expect and I am extremely thrilled about them.

PTL.

Dinner

Choo Siow Chin and I had dinner at Masakan Sedap.

 

We could not finish the crabs and therefore had to takeway to bring home.

After dinner we went to Parkson at Wawasan Plaza.

Airport

I slept for one and a half hours before waking up to go to the airport to fetch Choo Siow Chin.

She would be staying with us tonight and tomorrow night.

Dinner

Aunty Alice would be going to JB tomorrow for a month and therefore tonight I suggested we went to Food City for dinner.

Aunty Alice had the following.

Mum, Chloe and I had the following.

We were unable to finish everything and therefore had to ask for a plastic bag to take away the leftover.

Indifference

Recently I had asked the Lord for more patience in my life esp. in dealing with people.

Today there were occasions that under normal circumstances, I would have scolded the people involved. Instead I was so calm and collected.

I wonder whether indifference is such a good thing afterall.

Exercise

After being lazy for four weeks, today I forced myself to exercise again.

I walked around the neighbourhood for 45 mins. I would love to walk longer but the sky was turning dark and the mossies were starting to attack me.

Fook Lu Siew

After lunch all of us went to Fook Lu Siew to pay our last respect to Elder Alice Thien’s mother-in-law.

Lunch

Mr. & Mrs. Chew Chong Bin, Elizabetn & Jacelyn Chung, Alice Hiew and I had lunch with the speaker Ps. Paul Howe at The Hut BBQ Garden. Later Joanne Chew and the son came to join us as well.

Canaanland Mission Center

Kenny Lim led P&W and played the guitar. Jonathan Wong was on the keyboard while Terrence Lim on the drums. The backup singers were Ivy Voon, Elizabeth Chung, Chua Pei Woei and Cecilia Ng.

The Facilitator was Chew Chong Bin.

The speaker was Ps. Paul Howe. His sermon was on the shofar.

Dinner

Aunty Alice would be going to JB at the end of this month until end of next month.

Therefore mum suggested we went out for dinner before she goes off.

I brought them to the following restaurant at Lintas Square. I had been here twice before.

Aunty Alice and my order came with the following drink.

The food took a while to come out though mum commented there were not many customers at that time.

Mum’s order came out first.

Chloe’s came next.

Mine was next.

And Aunty Alice’s came out last.

There were quite a few times when we went out to eat and her order came out last.

Lunch

My friend San called me this morning and asked me out for lunch.

At the beginning of this year, she and her family went to Taiwan and I requested her to buy 2 packs of Sexy Look facial masks for me.

Recently she found out that I would be going there in a few months’ time and therefore she wanted to pass her MTR cards to me.

She suggested we had lunch at Kwong Tung Chai at Taman Bunga Raja. I have not eaten in this shop for years.

San had Roast Duck and Char Siew Rice. I had a piece of the duck and it tasted better than the last time I had it.

I had the following.

This did not look appetizing for a bowl of Prawn Noodles but thank goodness the taste was still ok, still edible but they did not serve belacan with it.

We chatted until 3p.m. when they wanted to close shop.

Scrabble

After playing Scrabble online for more than five years I think, I finally obtained more than 500 points, 529 points to be precise.

It was not an easy feat to obtain more than 500. The previous closest game was on 20 January 2011 with 478 points.

This game I had three bingos and the rest of the words were average in points. Therefore I could finally make a breakthrough.

The following are my Scrabble statistics thus far.

Shofar Training

Tonight Ps. Paul Howe, a pastor and shofar maker from Ampang, Kuala Lumpur came to Canaanland Mission Center to speak on the shofar.

He will deal with the practical side of how to blow a shofar tomorrow. I will not be attending since I will be working.

Unexpected Moments

Was stuck in a minor traffic congestion on the way home after work. Took the opportunity to take the following photo.

Then the following gigantic moth greeted me at the front door when I arrived home.

Co-op Mart

I managed to take another one of the following photo tonight.

Once again this is quite cheap and I am wondering how it would taste like.
