Accidents　－Ｆｅｌｌ　ｆｒｏｍ　ｂｕｓ

2011-11-12T23:51:00.013+11:00

真够倒霉，9号早上 (Wed)，左脚正要上巴士的时候，this idian guy infront of me, dunno what happen, one of his leg stop of the door step. My left leg hang in the air, no where to step, as a result, loss balance step on the road and twist.

I feel my leg was numb, no feeling, for a moment, i thought I broke my leg. with the help of a guy and a lady, i leap to the seat at the bus stop. Look at my swollen ankel,thinking, might be only sprain my leg, but my leg jus couldnt stand.

The lady ask if need to call ambulence, I still ask what is ambulence no. OMG.

I took the ambulence to NUH with Nina, who was about to go work. After X ray, I injured with dislocate and fracture. According to doc, is serious and need admission for operation.

The A&E doc put on the temp cast for me, and I start to feel the pain. With the pain killer injection, I feel dizzy but it relief the pain.

Until 4pm+, i finally warded (ward78 bed19). At night, the doc came and decided to pull back my dis located bone. I was so scare of the pain, later with the pain killer injection and the doc skills, it was fix back within sec and pain goes off. 2am, they send me for another x-ray to confirm the bone was in place.

Initially, doc was waiting for the operating threatre, and did not allow me to eat. For the whole day, no food, no water, was abit hungry. Till 9pm, they finally decide to opearate at later date and let me have 2 slides of bread.

later have nina to follow me to NUH.

10 Nov, my doc Dr Tan Ken Jin came. He needs to wait for my swell to go off before the operation. they put on the cool bag for my leg which blow cold air for my ankle to help release the swell. That make my leg so heavy.

11 Nov, CT scan in the morning for the doc to analyse on the surgry procedure. As usual, bore. cant move, cant do so many things. Jus laying on bed.

12 Nov, I have a new show. Dr Tan remove my cast, and replace with the cast shoe. I have to wear this till tomorrow's operation (8.15am). after operation, I will be wearing this shoe for another 6 weeks.

Tomorrow is hte operation. need to implant metal plate (left and right side above my ankle) and may be another infront?? in my ankle to help heal my bone. Go online to check on Dr Tan, he is associate consultant specialist in ankle and foot. I have faith in him. Just not sure if I will develop any complication, hopefully not. Bless me.

We just cant predict what will happen to us. 我们要活在当下，要做什么就快做，像我，本想换iphone,迟了一天，现在不能走，换不了了。想买车，tu tu tu, 现在叫也不方便买了。haiz

Moving

2011-09-24T20:12:00.009+11:00

After prayer on 29 Aug, and delivery of furniture during the week, and some last minutes backup due to committment, we finally moved on 4 Sep with the help of my eldest and youngest bro.

Alot of carton boxes to be moved. As Moh's van is too small, we have to run 3 trips to clear all things. Completed around 1pm plus, and still go down to 2nd sis place to bring back my storage stuff.

Everything is in, finally, we have our own house and they have their own private room. Is not easy to start with a new house especially from scatch. I proud that I manage to make it with help from friend and bro/sis.

好累，好失败，才两个都管不了。青春期的孩子，该怎么教？要怎样才让他们懂得是非黑白？怎样才能懂得做人的道理？怎样才能让他们体谅别人？

好累，好累，好累。。。

人生

2009-11-20T15:28:00.002+11:00

考完试快一个星期了，浑浑噩噩过日子，也不知做了些什么！

都不知在追求什么，拿了文凭又怎样？事情办妥，买了房子又怎样？到最后孩子大了，有自己的家庭，我就老了，病了，躺在床上，吃也不能吃，动也不能动，只能躺在床上过日子。

人无法控制老化，也不能担保老了不会生病。。。人生的目标到底是什么？??

Go green

2009-11-17T15:12:00.002+11:00

When to NTUC this morning, one old man with a walking stick was in front of me at the cashier who catch me attention. Not because he is handsome, but because he bring his own NTUC plastic bags for his items.

我自叹不如，总想为环保出一份力，却不如一个老人家。

From today onward, I wanna bring my own plastic bag out. Let SAVE the earth.

Go Green.

Nina start to work

2009-11-07T18:18:00.002+11:00

School holiday has begin, Nina has requested to work in MacDonald which I have agreed with it. It is better than staying home do nothing but interneting and TVing.

That day when to wait for her to finish work at IMM, the way she keying order to cashier doesnt look like new recruits. She is fast and familiar with the system, only occasionally need clarify for un usual order.

She has growth, I hoo mia liao. hahha...

She enjoy her work, and looking forward to pay day.

I have told her to save at least 25% of earning and the rest she may keep it herself. Hope she know how to manage her own financial.

Golden Mountain

2009-10-13T15:17:00.002+11:00

"2.4K already settle"
"money from where?
"drop from the sky"
"dun understand"
WTF, teoh suan still dunno. Does it matter where the money is from? Concern? Is more like want to know where is the golden mountain, so that could dig somemore out of it. S**T

Cleaning SHIT

2009-10-10T15:03:00.000+11:00

A: "ehh, she came back for what?"
Tenant: "collect something"
A: "she stay here?"
Tenant: "yes"

White Elephant

2009-09-17T20:38:00.004+11:00

客厅的灯，是一盏六个灯泡的吊灯。

家里有个unwritten policy,只有当大家都在时，才能开启厅里的灯。原因是，一个人用而开着灯，就等于一个人用六盏灯，浪费电。

这可苦了我们几个读书仔，房里没桌子，晚上要做东西很不方便。

虽说是节约能源，但买了灯不能开，买来干嘛?

根本就是白象！不切实际！！！

National Day Gift

2009-08-15T03:04:00.007+11:00

When we are still schooling, we use to get packet of 康元biscuit or sweets during our National Day. During that time, the biscuit is so precious to us.

And nowsday, guess what the students get during National Day.

Nina got a transparent pencil case.

Samuel got a pen with interchangeable 6 messages that read :
We have confidence in our future
Singapore is our homeland, this is where we belong
We must preserve racial and religious harmony
we must uphold meritocracy and incorruptibility
No one owes Singapore a living
We must ourselves defend Singapore

Sam : "mummy, 姐姐这样好，有pencil box, 我们才拿一支pen"

Nina : "好？？我们考试一定要拿这个pencil box lor. xian leh"

Sam : "huh(stunned)!! heng ah! 还好我是拿pen"

Clean up your own mess

2009-08-06T15:03:00.003+11:00

不明白有些人为何不能踏踏实实的过日子，总要把事情搞得一团糟。

自己沉船就好，别把不相干的人也拖下水！

搞得我像躲债主一样，一个字闪！

一句话：“CLEAN UP YOUR OWN MESS!!!”

肉包子打狗，一去不会

2009-08-01T22:27:00.000+11:00

没信用的人向你借钱，你会借吗？简直是肉包子打狗，一去不会！

不借的话，要出了事，我会是罪人吗？亲朋戚友，儿儿女女会怪我吗？

唉！不管了！反正我又不是提款机，也不是印钞票的。哪来那么多闲钱，说借就借！

你自己保重把。。。。。。

Lost my Ezlink card

2009-07-21T12:42:00.002+11:00

Yesterday met Nina at Jurong Point to watch ICE AGE3. Not bad, funny show.

One kid age around 2 making so much noise and walking around. Dun worry, Not the "G", her mummy was busy looking and chasing after her. Her hand was holding a Nacho with cheese all over her hand. She walk into my seat, then my leg kanna her cheese. Kid too young shouldnt bring her to watch show lor. So distructive.

Anyway, we took a bus home, and on the bus, i cant find my ezlink card. It has dissappeared from my bag. Is gone. Before the show, I have been walking around Jurong Point, ATM, NTUC, Breadtalk, Cinema counter. Oh S***. Is Gone! Dunno where I lost it. Still have about 35+ in value. Sob Sob .... :_(

This morning call the transit link office to report lost of my card, and want them to terminate the card. The Customer service officer told me they are unable to trace. I was so angry and asked "then in the first place, why do you need my IC when I purchase the card?" she replied "the IC is just to verify" Lame answer right. :(

My Result Tri1A 2009

2009-07-09T15:33:00.001+11:00

Got my exam result, 77 (distinction) for Business Law and 61 (credit) for Int'l Mgmt. So happy, at least my result script got distinction and not all are only a pass grade.

Performance at Victoria Concert Hall

2009-07-02T22:07:00.000+11:00

Commonwealth choir and some other schools who have outstanding performance in SYF are holding a SYF Choral Presentation at Victoria Concert Hall.

Nina Samuel去拍戏

2009-06-28T23:49:00.000+11:00

昨天到MediaCorp, 今天又去。因为Nina 和Samuel要去拍戏. Channel 5 的 "First Class Session2"。他们只是演学生甲乙丙丁，没对白那种。早上八点多出发，到南桥中学拍外景，拍至下午五点左右。没酬劳，只供他们午餐和水！

虽然累，但应该是很好玩。让他们体验一下也好，知道拍戏辛苦，才不会发明星梦。

Sam也领悟到，和明星一起拍戏，发现他们也和我们一样，没什么特别！

缤纷万千在晟松

2009-06-27T23:20:00.000+11:00

Go Media Corp watch the Sheng Siong Show.

Show start at 8pm, got to reach there at 6.45pm.

Who's the host? 钟琴and许振荣。The guest is 潘秀琼.

Before the show, the producer will instruct us what to do during the show. Like shouting 千倍千倍, 白倍百倍 and what action should we do when they ask something 。。。。 quite lame

Lucky we are sitting behind, so wont be capture on screen and dun need to do so many action. Also alot of aunties when for the show .... me is part of the group hahaha

Exam - Last paper - IM

2009-06-10T18:50:00.004+11:00

Exam finish today. But I dun feel happy ... why, because I didn't did well for today's papaer.

International management, 11 chapter, no tips. Wa lau, so many chapter how to study. Study the back forget the front. I read through 9 charter and empathsis on certain topics. End up the chapter that I skip came out in case study.

So, what I can do is to smoke xian and pong ~~~~~~~~~~~ The other question also didnt really do well.

haiz, put in so much effort on this subject, every week occupied so much time on tutorial, tidy up notes, end up like this, blame who? blame the Curtin lecturer or my brain. May be I not hard working enough. Brain old liao, cant remember too much thing.

Now will wait for the result, hopefully can clear the paper.

Law test - highest

2009-06-02T21:57:00.000+11:00

Got my Law test result, I got 8.5/10, the highest in class (together with another guy), yay ....

Over of 3 test, i have 39.5/50, second higher in class.

So happy, at least I am not that bad. Will try harder to get Distinction for my exam next week. Jai you as what Ayni always say to me ...

信任

2009-05-21T02:18:00.003+11:00

forgive and forget! 说得容易，又有几个人真正做得到？

信任一旦破坏了，就得花很长的时间才能重新建立！

不断的旧事重提，只会在原地绕圈子，对伤口一点帮助也没有，反而让伤口愈合的更慢。

不错都错了，何不把握现在，珍惜眼前？

只有抛开往事，才能更快乐的向前前进！

有借有还，是上等人

2009-05-14T19:01:00.002+11:00

谢谢您财神爷，让他中马票。

我终于可以拿回我的钱了！

Happy Mother's Day

2009-05-10T20:22:00.007+11:00

Wish all mother a Happy Mother's Day!!!!

Yesterday celebrate mother's day with Nina and Sam. We went dinner at Jack's place. The food so so only. After that, we went for bowling at West Coast Recreation centre. I only manage to play 3 games, but they are energetic and continue few more games.

Nina also bake a mother's day cheese cake for me.

The cake may look like Afica cake, but is actually a chocolate Oreo cheese cake. Is a rich cheese cake, and is delicious. Thanks Nina.

有借有还

2009-05-08T19:55:00.003+11:00

有借有还再借不难；有借没还再借免谈！

有些人就是衰款，借了逾期还不还。

已经过了期限的第四天了，还没动静。

借的是长辈，想开口追又不好意思，不追又对不起自己！唉！

还好数目不是太大，要是真追不回，只好当是烂账。

也许，该在他床头吊个猪头吧！哈哈。。。

The BIG '4'

2009-04-28T19:51:00.000+11:00

oh, this year, I will be celebrating my big '4'.

Is my 40th birthday, a new begining with the '4' digit.

Two day before, have dinner with my ex colleagues at Turf club. Althought is to celebrate my birthday, I did not win any money.

The day before, which is also my nieceIL birthday, they bought a cake for me.

I celebrate my actual birthday with my dad, as it is also his Chinese birthday. We eat at coffee shop while watching TCS star award.

After that went back cut cake.

This year's birthday was different, receive presents from my bro n sis. Pai seh, their birthday I had never put in effort to buy present for them. Thanks all for your 爱心礼物, I really appreciate that.

This year, I forgot to make my wish. Anyway, a late wishes, I wish that I and those around me would live better and better. And wish that I will live a fruitful 40s.

my birthday dinner.

2009-04-20T15:54:00.003+11:00

Coming Sunday is my birthday, but will be tie up with my SIL ROM day and my dad birthday.

Nina initiate to celebrate my b'day one week earlier. They propose to buy me dinner at Fish n Co.

We went to Fish n Co. at IMM

Samuel order Fish n Chip
Nina order Seafood platter
I order Al fungi spagatti (cause i dont feel like eating tomoto sauce)

End up, my spagetti was with tomato sauce, ask the waitress, she said they have changed the sauce (but did not update the manu). haiz, no choice, dont spoil the mood, so eat up the spagatti.

Went to Giant to buy camera battery, thought will be around $50+, guess what? only $13.90, and the 2GB memory card at $11.90. Didnt know is so cheap, i mean, below my expectation.

End up, I am paying for the dinner as their money are all in the bank. And I will not touch their saving, right?

Weired Poster in MRT

2009-04-02T22:27:00.000+11:00

Saw this weired sign on the MRT. Is this a commercial advertisment? Or some itchy hand paste on it?

Nina's Birthday

2009-03-23T22:01:00.000+11:00

Took leave on Nina's birthday.

She choose to go K with her cousin. We saved one headcount cause Sam came late and we did not pay for it. haha, cheating.

After K, we go to JurongPoint to buy cake with and do her own deco.

This is the process :

Though will be a normal cake, but the cake actually taste quite nice. Next time can buy cake from them.

Reach home 8+, and we have steam boat for all. What a big day like CNY.

The next day Moh gave her a treat at Japanese restaurant.

We all enjoy the mael.

Exam

2009-03-12T23:04:00.000+11:00

I pass my exam, Organisation Behaviour and Training & Development both 58 marks.

Although is not a very good result, but I am happy with it. Furthermore, I had failed my individual assignment, so wtih this result, should be happy liao.

Anyway, the new semester start this week. Will work harder, and get a better result.

Study should be a enjoyable process, to learn new thing and gain knowledge. If without exam, it will be much more enjoyable. But fat hope la.

Where to go

2009-03-01T01:35:00.001+11:00

Look at this sign. Should the driver drive their car under ground?

Exam

2009-02-26T01:26:00.001+11:00

Exam finally is over. Past one week, I have been hidding in the library study for almost 10 hours a day and continuous for 5 days. Crazy.

Nina and Sam will follow me to the library. While I study, they will do their homework or surf net. We actually enjoy in the library leh, we eat secretly in the library and hide our tibits in the pencil case. They also 打包chicken chunk for me which they couldnt finish in the cafe. OMG. But the chicken chunk is really nice.

Besides the enjoying part, I studied till like giving up. Some much theories to memorised. Why want to study? If not, I can read my magazine, shop, eat, sleep. Why take such course to burden myself. Why need exam? All the theory are in the book. In real life, I can just refer to it, why must study so much theory. haizz, no answer of course.

And I fail my T&D essay assignment. 11 over 30 marks. Lecturer say my content is a pass grade as I am right to the point. He fail me because of my referrencing. I didnt use enough referrencing, and he comments on my paper like "who say", feel like telling him I say la. The referrencing format also wrong. haizzz. At least the content still ok, so, I got to buck up on my research work next time.

Anyway, exam is over, I will enjoy this week. Catch up with whatever I have neglect before school reopen a week after.

Rainbow

2009-02-25T01:17:00.001+11:00

Saw the rainbow on Wed at Jurong East. Didnt realise that are actually 2 rainbow till the newspaper reported. The 2nd one is on top of the first. Not very clear. If you see carefully, you will be able to spot it.

AMT part 2

2009-02-12T13:24:00.001+11:00

Yesterday receive SMS from DBS. They have processed my claim and $40 has been credited to my account. Quite efficient, 4 days and I get my money back. Yay...

名人语录

2009-02-08T22:23:00.004+11:00

台湾的圣严法师圆寂了，享年八十岁。我并不清楚他是谁，但他的语录却很有意思。

“人类之有苦恼，是因为缺少了智慧；
人间之有纷争，是因为缺少了慈悲。”

“让别人快乐是慈悲，让自己快乐是智慧。”

“一夜致富是暴富，一夕成名乃虚名，
暴富暴发富难守，虚名不实名累人。”

AMT

2009-02-07T21:56:00.000+11:00

Went to withdrawl money at Jurong East AMT.

After completing all the entry, the AMT machine eject the card. I took the card, busy keeping another card to my wallet as well. And guess what? I walk away without taking the cash.

I only relised after I walk to the MRT and wanted to check my transaction receipt to see the balance.

I return back to the AMT. Of course the money is not there. I go in to the branch and log a report.

While filing up the form, the staff ask me if I have the receipt. I told her no, I didnt take. She continue filing the form. A while later, she ask me again, "withdrawal sure got receipt right?" At that moment, smoke came out from my head. I feel like slapping her face, if I remember to take the receipt, I will sure take the money right. What a stupid question. But I still keep cool, I told her, no i forgot to take both.

The branch will investigate before they decide if they could credit back my money.

Lucky thing is, I only withdrawn $40. If is $400, sure cant sleep for day and night.

So, my friends, becareful next time when you withdraw money from AMT, dun be as blur as me.

SBS157

2009-02-05T15:36:00.007+11:00

That day, took SBS 157 fom Toa Payoh. It wasn't crowded, when I got up the bus, I was like ... ehhh, where to sit...

2009-01-31T22:40:00.000+11:00

Chinese New Year

2009-01-28T22:28:00.000+11:00

First day of CNY.

Morning, Nina told me she got blister on her hand, face and stomach.

I look at it, oh shit. Look like chicken pox.

CNY, where to find the clinic? Then remember, west point hosipital should be in operations.

Confirm by the doctors, is chicken pox. Get a stronger medicine. Total consultation including medication, cost me $166. No choice. Hope she recover fast.

I have not have chicken pox before, so does Sam. Hope everything went well.

I really dunno how to take care of chicken pox patient. Only know that many thing cannot eat. Like having confinment.

What a CNY. No visiting. Also good la. It could be quite tiring doing visiting. Poor Nina n Sam. Bought new clothes, new shoe but no chance to wear during the CNY. Nina told me this year ang bao value sure drop. haha... no visiting ma

We are having steamboat lunch on 2nd day CNY. I was cooking some fish and meat for Nina before we throw in all the seafood. Sam told me "mummy, 要吃快点吃，就快轮到我们了！" haha ... this boy, really ...

2 days CNY, jus over like that. It is the first no visiting CNY.

真爱

2009-01-25T22:21:00.000+11:00

有一种爱是无私的

当你犯了错，背叛了他。。。

Rushing for 4 projects, 2 individual assignments and 2 group projects. All have to sumbit before CNY. 7 Jan, 17 Jan submission of individuals project, 19 & 23 Jan group presentation. This is the first semester, no experience, I should have started earlier.

The individual assignment, i have to write a 2500 words essay, not only that, it must be supported by research. This is the worst part. Every nite reach home, have dinner, shower, and I will start writing till midnite. Crazy.

With CNY coming, no time and no mood to shop. Only settle Nina and Sam. Struggling between, work, kids, studies and others. New Year on 26 Jan, and till now, i only got a pair of jean. The worst CNY.

D & D 2008

2008-12-15T19:19:00.001+11:00

Dec 13, our company D&D. This year I am the social committee. We rent the costume for our Masquerade theme. Event went well and the attendance is good.

The drama part? Few of us stay back after the event. Some continue to drink wine. At the end, Jit Yao was drunk. Totally knock out, and throw out all over the event hall. And look at his size, 3 guys got to try a few to drag him up the wheel chair that control by few ladies. The guys eventually manage to drag him all the way home with whole body ache the next day.

So, if your size is big, make sure you dont get drunk. Is hard for other and embarrass for yourself.

Back to School

2008-12-09T23:35:00.001+11:00

Remember what are my wish at the begining of the year?

PSLE result

2008-11-20T01:47:00.000+11:00

PSEL result release today. Samuel got 177. I was disappointed. Thought he will get a better result.

How to make them relised the important of study. Only when they relised that, they will then put in the effort to work hard. If not, no matter how I force them, the heart is not there, how to study.

Next year, they will not have their games etc when exam coming.

KL Meeting/Training

2008-11-10T15:27:00.006+11:00

Just back from KL for HR meeting/training.

This time round, our meeting is held at Imperial Hotel where we stay in. The hotel is nice, has a big window in the toilet, but too bad, has too be closed when you are in, cause there are some building far opposite.

This so call 5-star hotel, the security is not as good as our previous stay Meridien.

One night, when I am back from our dinner, found my room was not lock after the housekeeping done a last touch up. The even left a dirty face towel in my room. Call up the customer service to complaint, and only got a apologise letter (may be because I already check out the next morning).

Later that day, found out from my colleague that, the same night, the housekeeper has left a door key inside her room. OMG, housekeeper's door key must be a master key right? How can they so careless.

So, beware if you go KL, think twice before you book this hotel. But one thing, their pastry is very nice. The cup cake, tart, cookie etc yummy.

Ok, no more hotel, this KL trip was fun. We shop on the first day when we arrived. Mary and Anne shop at Bt Bintang, where I found nothing much, and took a monorail to Times Square and get some stuff for Nina and Sam. And back to Bintang at dinner time to meet them.

The following three days was meeting/training and eat eat. Breakfast, teabreak, lunch, teabreak, dinner. Eat already feel guilty, 美食当前，不吃又对不起自己。Check in to hotel I weight myself, when check out, ohhh, 2kg more. jia lak liao.

On the 2 days of meeting, we have the social event, bowling friendly match. And I won myself 3 trophies, group champion, individuals champion (321), and highest score in one games (149). I so pai seh, because out of the 15 participants, most of them do not know how to bowl. Some even the first time bowler. haha, but I wont reject the trophies la, first time won the bowling trophies leh.

My team

Papa Fell

2008-10-23T12:30:00.004+11:00

Papa fell in the toilet and fracture his leg. After operations, he hardly move his body as the wound hurt. He is vision impaired and still suffering from the leg injury, feel so sad and wish that I am the one lieing on bed.

Looking at the Xray, his thigh bone fracture/broke and poke on his leg. Before operation, the doc has to pull his leg straight to reduce the pain.

Luckily, he is physically fit. No high blood, no diabetic or any other illness, the operation is successfully and is recovering fast. After one week in NUH, he was transferred to St Lukes for therapy for 2 weeks.

The difficult part will be when he is back home as we have to take extra precauction.

May be we should learn from his diet, no cold drink, no junk food, full mean full, dun take anything extra. But can we do that? Think of the fried chicken, chow kway teow, carrot cake, ohhh... feel hungry now. haha

Guess we just have to control our big mouth and eat healthy.

Singapore Flyer

2008-08-26T00:13:00.000+11:00

This year, our company family day is going to the Singapore Flyer. Each staff are giving 2 free tickets, and since I am the committee, I get an other free ticket. wow, good deal. If not for this family day, I dont think I will go for the flyer, the tickets is so expensive.

On 23 Aug, we reach there earlier, bring Nina and Sam to eat the popeye fried chicken, as people are saying it is nicer than KFC. But dont think they enjoy it.

They also each bought a bear at the built your bear shop.

After that, I was busy at the Megu event hall, Nina help me at the reception area, while Sam playing his PSP at the corner.

4pm our turn to board the flyer. Althought is the highest in the world, but what can you see in Singapore? Furthermore, it is dizzling. Nothing excited. 28 mins later, we reach the ground.

As it is a family day, we have door gift as well.

中元节

2008-08-16T15:11:00.007+11:00

又是农历七月，今年公司办的中元节刚好就在七月十五。

今年也起价了，一份要$80,包括福物和晚餐。anyway,过去十二年都维持在$60,起价应该不会太过份啦。

跟往年一样，中元节办得很热闹。

福物

晚餐，大概有28桌吧，包括一些contractors 和 customers.一些旧同事也回来参与。

影响不够清晰，因为灯光太亮了，这是逐渐被淘汰的木偶戏。

土地公

2008-08-15T00:24:00.002+11:00

那天，老大，老四和老六谈起墓碑旁土地公的做用。

老四：“我那有阴阳眼的病人说她看过土地公，慈祥，戴眼镜。”

老大：“土地公是古代的人，那时哪有眼镜？再说，若说他现在是神，哪里还需要眼镜？有眼镜，近视就会加深，到时他要去哪里配眼镜？眼镜掉了又怎么去庇护他人的灵魂？”

老六：“现代人都有烧金银纸，物品之类的，因此，土地公也获得了一副眼镜。若他要换眼镜，可以托梦给有缘人，那土地公就有新眼镜了！！”

哈哈哈！！！

老六：“再说，土地公只是老花眼，又没瞎，眼镜掉了，还是看得到，还是可以庇护人的，更何况庇护是靠心灵感应的！”

哈哈哈

National Day Eve

2008-08-08T22:45:00.000+11:00

Tomoro is National Day, saw alot of ppl wearing red shirt. The birthday mood is there. I love the spirit. One of our dept, all staff is wearing red or white. Wanted to wear red too, but fear of colleagues teasing at me, also, wanted to wear it tomoro.

Tomoro is national day, and I am all alone sitting at Harbour front MacDonald surfing net. Nina and Sam went to genting with their dad and my in laws. Good and bad. I can have my own time. May do some visiting or do some shopping. Bad thing is, miss them both.

Tomoro is national day, how is my dear bro doing in Shanghai? Did he miss Singapore? Did he miss home more during Singapore birthday? Will he be able to watch the national day perade tomoro?

Tomoro is national day, today is 08.08.08 ... and is beijing olympic. The opening ceremony is amazing, is grand. Beijing did a good job in showing the world the China history, their people, their capability.

I wish Singapore a Happy National Day and a great future ....

Underpaid Bus Fare

2008-06-30T15:50:00.005+11:00

This is a poster on SBS bus informing passenger the penalty rate for underpaid the bus fare.

If you are the one who would want to 'eat' the bus fare, which categories would you choose ?

I will choose Non-Payment of Fare. Cost never pay bus fare, O GONG is $20 only, rather than I use my child's concession pass, pay lower fare, and the O GONG is $50.

Lost My Earrings

2008-06-15T03:12:00.000+11:00

I lost my diamond earrrings ... :(

That night while I laying on my bed playing with my handphone, I feel something drop off from pillow. I wake up and saw the back of the earrings (the stopper of the earring). Funny thing is, there isnt any earring around the bed. How could the back of earrings stay at the back of my ear with the earrin infront. I start to look around the house, toilet, living room, bedroom, kitchen, sofa ..... everywhere of the house, but couldnt find it. So sad. The earrings has been with me for 4.5 years.

Holiday Trip at Bintan Resort

2008-06-08T14:30:00.000+11:00

We have a last minutes planning of going to Bintan Resort for short holidays.

We do a online booking for villas and ferry. One week later, 04 June, we are on board Aries Bupala vessel, sailing toward Bintan Resort.

DAY 1, 04 June
Arrived around 12noon (Indonesia time), check in to 36 Buganvil villas. Wah, is a big house, upstair got 4 bed rooms, down stair got dinning area, living room, small kitchen counter and a buggy. After settling with our room, we start busy at the kitchen, cooking instant noodles and pizza for our lunch.

After lunch we went to beach to have sea sports. First we went for snorkerling. The water is clear, we paid for the equipment and lift jacket and $20 for 2 guides, which will show us how to use equipment and where to see fishes.

Samuel cant swim, one of the guide hold him all the way. You know, I am scare of swimming in the sea too, and imagine wearing the "duck leg shoe", swim a little and struggling to stand up. The guide then told me, dun need to stand up, just head up and turn your body. I try, and i really float in the sea with head face up, very relaxing. The life jacket really work, and make you float in the water. we swim about 200m away from beach, is about 2-3 m deep, and the are lot of fishes, demo fish, and some colourful fishes, creatures and black round thing with a lot of long horns. Is a wonderful feeling to see all this sea creatures in close distance. When tired, just turn around and laying on the sea. shiok.

On our way back, someone shout "big wave" and start to swim to the left, I was a big worry and start to look around to see where is the wave, then one guide pointed to the sea, i put my head down and saw a stingray, is stingray and I thought they shouted for "big wave", scare me, hahaha

After the snorkerling, they went for bananaboat, whereby we seat on a banana shape boat with a speedboat infront pulling the "banana boat". I didn't try, cause they say may fall into the sea. Although with life jacket, I decided not to try.

When they are back, they went for Jet Ski. I try one round, they ride so fast, at one turning part, I kanna swing out of my seat, in order to balance back to the seat, I hold so tight to the ridder, in the end, I pull the 3 of us into the sea. Of course got life jacket, we float and we swim back to the jet ski. Is a fun experience to drop into the sea.

After the sea sport, went back to villas to clean up and went for dinner. Then idealing at the villas watching TV, play cards etc.

DAY 2, 05 June
While waiting for the rest to wake up, we went to the beach to have a walk. We pick alots of dunno what crabs. So nice and so cute.

We have some fun at the recreation centre for archery, golf driving range and laser quest and pool.

Afternoon, we went for snorkerling again. Nina went along as well. The wave was stronger today. When my head is down in the sea, I could feel the current ontop of me. When they all start off, I was left behind, and feel so nervous, I wanted to turn back and not joining them. My friend at the middle of the journey encourage me to swim over, finally, I manage to catch up with them and exchange my snorkel with the guide as I found the goole got bit of water going in. Is really enjoying by laying on your back at the sea and let it float.

We also try banana boat and enjoy fun at the beach with the kids.

At night we went for karaoke, but the system suck, so difficult to find a song. We sing for an hour and back to villas.

DAY 3, 06 June

The holiday end today. And it is a fun and enjoyable trip.

Mother's Day Surprise Gift

2008-05-17T00:07:00.000+11:00

This year mother's day I got a surprise gift from my two little darlings.

The day before mother's day, which is 11 May, Saturday, they mentioned they would like to go IMM after their music lesson.

Reached IMM, they told me wanna eat Swensen. So we queue up at the restaurant, then they show me a newspaper, showing Mother's Day promotion at Swensen, which is $62 for 3 px, including soup, main couse and earth quke ice-cream (8 scopes). They want to give me a treat. I feel so glad that they actually planning of what to buy me and end up decided to buy me a meal. The meal also including free spa treat, one instant photo.

It thought it would be rather expensive for them, but they decided to split the cost among themselve. Ok, that their thought, so I accept it and we enjoy the meal very much.

This is my salmon, actual looks nicer and delicioius. As I have eaten some vegetables before I remember to take pictures.

This is Nina's cheese spegatti

This is Samuel's clay fish spgatti

They really growth up, last time, they can't even finish one plate, now they finish it with great satisfactory.

Here is our earth quake, is too much, we didn't really finish it all

After makan, we shop shop at IMM & giant.

This is a greatest mother's day.

I love you Nina, Samuel!

Sandwich Making Competition

2008-05-16T13:36:00.000+11:00

Our company has this sandwich making competition. It is part of our Health Programm.

Only 4 teams take part in competition and yet we didnt won.

We surpose to make a healty egg sandwich with tomoto, celery and onion. One of the team member volunteer to prepare the ingretient.

SCATCH IT

2008-05-09T22:23:00.007+11:00

Last Thursday, went to buy 3mil toto, but was too late when reached the pools.

End up, bought next week's toto and the SCATCH IT! The other day FIL ask me to check if he has won $2 for the SCATCH IT (he paid total of $5 for the tickets). So I thought just bought 5 tickets ($1 each) for fun.

I was so "sua gu", before I got the tickets from the counter staff, I ask her should I scatch only 3 boxes or scatch all boxes to check 3 same numbers. The staff "暗笑" and told me to scatch all and look for 3 numbers. When I got the tickets, I then realised why she "暗笑", cause there is only one box to scatch.

See, this is before scatch

I slowly scatch the tickets, checking the numbers, and guess what, out of the 5 tickets that I bought, I won 2 tickets at $5 each. Yuppy, so happy, take back my money.

These are my winning tickets.

If you want to try, this is the winning statistics I get from Singapore Pools website. After seeing this, you may not want to waste your money.

Out of 500,000 tickets printed, the numbers of tickets per prize value are as follow :

Prizes ($) No. of Tickets

10,000 2
2,000 3
1,000 4
500 8
100 20
80 20
40 120

Got it? The chances of winning the $10,000 is so slim, I think buy 4D got better chance.

Told my friends I have won the scratch it, they all laugh at me saying the SCATCH IT is for workers and aunties. Anyway, I am happy to win the $10 hahaha

智到上海去了

2008-05-05T19:44:00.006+11:00

智飞到上海工作了，两年leh,说长不长，说短不短，心里真得很舍不得他。

之前，他已有好些overses's offer,他考虑后都放弃了，这次他总算下定决心，完成他往海外发展的梦想。

临行的午夜，他发了则简讯给我，说他的心情沉重难过到无比难受。我看了，泪水在我眼里打滚。我都舍不得他走，更何况是他舍不得他的孩子。两个孩子这么粘他，他又那么地疼他们，此时此刻，想必他一定后悔签了合约。

过一阵子,大家都安定下来，也许心情会好些。说不定两年后，他全家都移民到中国，不回来了。

无论如何，佩服他的勇气，得与失，此生也总算没有遗憾。

我的生日

2008-04-28T14:51:00.009+11:00

26th of April is my birthday. And I am already 39, OMG. Last year of age starting with digit "3". Sometime I was thinking, if I am on news headline, how will the reporter describe me? “女子”？“少妇”？“中年妇女”？“艳妇”（哈哈，不可能啦！）？还是“阿嫂”？哈哈哈，真的是老了。

生日那天，带两个宝贝去吃Sakae Sushi。之后也没什么节目，就回家了。

今年的生日蛋糕很特别，是NINA亲手烘焙的cheese Orea Cake. 很开心她花心思为我烘制蛋糕，吃起来特别好吃。上面是cheese cake, base 是orea, 很不错。她还买了蜡烛和HAPPY BIRTHDAY 的点缀品。

数得清有几根蜡烛吗？

SAMUEL 本来要弹生日歌，但有小小瓜在而放弃计划。

Thanks Nina n Samuel for your thought. I Luv You.

隔天，回娘家，兄弟姐妹们为我庆生，兼欢送会for my bro.他就快到上海工作，两年后才回来。好舍不得，少了个谈天说笑的开心果。祝他大展宏图，凯旋归来。

小弟美味的榴莲蛋糕，Nina　制作的皮薄肉嫩的o ne o ne,还有我的好到吮手指的炸鸡，大家吃吃喝喝，说说笑笑，还拍了几张全家福。

今年也收到不少礼物，看看：

今年的生日过得还不错，只是有个好友忘了我的生日:(

Tickets Machine

2008-04-24T15:19:00.003+11:00

2008-04-20T21:09:00.003+11:00

第一次去了St James Power. 人好多，多是年轻的上班族，走在人群里，发现自己老了。

台上有三位美女，穿着超短裙，配上长靴，在台上说说笑笑，载歌载舞。台上震耳的音乐，台下的人群，简直就像看歌台，一个高级的歌台。

在里头站了两个小时，感觉还好，而且，禁烟嘛，少了讨厌的烟味！

原来我是外家

2008-04-05T20:10:00.004+11:00

明天要去扫墓，今天想去买点往生纸之类的，哪知，MIL知道了，就“不好意思”的说，往生纸可以，别买纸衣服之类的回来，因为有门神。Althought她也有买，但我是外家。

结果，我只到把刹买了早点，回来就去冲凉。在厕所里，心想，她一定会去看我买了什么，果然不出我所料，从厕所出来，她就问我为什么没买往生纸？是不是生气。我回说没有，就不再跟她多说了。

*@#分到这么清楚。真的觉得很委屈，很难过。

梦

2008-04-04T15:11:00.002+11:00

记得上个月提到一位同事去世了。一个多星期后，我梦见在一个公司的常月buffet上，他问我有什么适合
他吃的？原想在清明拜一拜他，却发现他之前是基督教徒。我哥是Catholic,他说，基督教徒死了上天和god在一起，不须吃东西，所以不须要拜。

不拜又不安心，这个星期天要扫墓，我想还是在坟场的路边给他烧支香，烧点纸钱，买水果拜一拜较好。Anyway, 他之前是个佛/道教徒，是生病以后才convert to Christian的。应该收得到啦。

挨骂

2008-04-03T23:32:00.003+11:00

今天真倒霉，被sales manager训了一顿。他怪我把他下属的reporting line换去report to MD. 又不关我的事，我是按照我老板的指示做的嘛！死要面子。他八成是公报私仇，因为昨天刚找借口推了他的午餐邀约。

他下属倒承认是他害我被骂的，因为是他向sales manager报告reporting line错了。只能怪自己倒霉，go upstair at the wrong timing 才会碰上他而受骂！

算了，气都消了！！

愚人节的由来

2008-04-01T12:09:00.002+11:00

又是四月。我爱四月，因为我生于四月！！！

今天也是愚人节，没作弄人，也没被作弄。可你知道愚人节的由来吗？

看看这则短文：

愚人节的由来
每年4月1日，是西方的民间传统节日——愚人节。愚人节起源于法国。
1564年，法国首先采用新改革的纪年法——格里历(即目前通用的阳历)，以1月1日为一年之始。但一些因循守旧的人反对这种改革，依然按照旧历固执地在4月1日这一天送礼品，庆祝新年。主张改革法大加嘲弄，聪明滑稽的人在4月1日就给守旧者送假礼品，邀请他们参加假招待会的人对这些守旧者的做，并把上当受骗的保守分子称为“4月傻瓜”或“上钩的鱼”。从此人们在4月1日便互相愚弄，并成为法国流行的风俗。18世纪初，愚人节习俗流传到英国，接着又被英国的早期移民带到了美国。

Happy 13th Birthday to Nina

2008-03-28T19:51:00.006+11:00

Nina's birthday is on 20 Mar. A week before, she has a little celebration with her classmates/friends at Long John Silver, JE.

On actual day, I took half day leave. She has wanted to go K box.

We sing from 2.30 - 7pm. Sam joined us later as he has remedial class.

She sang alots of song which I dun even know the titles. Enjoy singing with them as I get to catch up with the lastest pop songs.

There is this songs sang by 梁静茹，cant remember the title, I hate this song. The MTV is talking about this old man fall in love with the young lady. I found it so disgusting.

After the singing sessions, they went to acarde and I went to buy the durian at Clementi.

This cake is expensieve, 15cm diameter, selling at sgd42.00. But she loves the cake, so just get it for her.

We sing birthday song and cake at 10pm. That end her 13th birthday celebration.

Her favourite durian cake

Here I would like to wish her have a good results and may all her wishes come true.

吓死人了！！

Yesterday my sis went back to visit my dad. While she was back facing the corridor talking to my nephew (6 yrs old), he suddenly told my sis there is someone at the corridor. When my sis look outside, there isn't anyone there. Then my nephew told her, someone outside 走来走去。eeee .... so scary.

Remember when my son was young (4-5 yrs), he also ever pointed to a corner of my previous home, said "Ah Ma". The other incident was at a Thai restaurant at west mall.　While we are having dinner, he suddenly said " 你后面有人“。But the back of my seat was actually a wall. I can't explain why and try to think that he dont mean anything.

Now he has growth up, he actully very timid and scare of gh...

Ｍｏｏｄｙ

2008-03-07T00:10:00.005+11:00

This few days so moody. Everyday work, home, kids. What else can I do? What do I want? What's my goals? Do I go on like this for the rest of my life?

Talk about work, 最大的障碍该是我的半桶水英文。讲也不好，写也不好。琐琐碎碎的事又多。其实也不该complaint la. 上司玛丽对我还不错啦！只是她有时很details,很kiasu. 什么市都要follow procedure,做什么都要black and white,cc 来cc去。就像梁志强的戏所说的，cc 代表 cover cachng. bcc 代表 better cover cachng. Because everything must be black and white, and cc the whole HR team, it become a stress to me, cos I have to write a better and proper English. Can't write short form or casual mail. It become very tedious. Other than that, 都还好。ＳＴＲＥＳＳ！

Home. Now staying with the in law, is convenience, but kids are growing, the house become smaller. The kids dont have a study environment and 4 persons in a room, so many things, so little space. when can I have my own house? The main issue here is not the money, is lots of other thing that I need to consider carefully. The kids arrangement, they have been living with big family since young, will they get use to the quiet home? What if I study or have something on at night, how should I arranged them to? What if they fall sick in the morning, I cant just leave them at home. So many issue, 烦。

And now the kids, how to make them to listen to me? I dont wish to see them to have bad company. I dont want them to get hurt or bully by other. They are too young, the people out there are so 阴险。I have to stop them from hanging out after school, but how to make sure that they dont lie to me? How to make them to be upright person? To have positive thinking? When will they understand that study is important? They have to work hard in order to success? I really dunno how to handle them, I can be talking and talking, telling them what can do, what cannot do,what is good, what is bad, but do they listen? Or just right ear in, left ear out?
I have to try my best, and hope they will understand one day.累

要到什么时候才能走出这烦人的日子！！

生老病死

2008-03-06T03:06:00.000+11:00

一个同事今早病逝了。人生无常，生老病死，听天由命。做人还是别太计较，能吃就吃，能睡就睡。

别想太多，以免自寻烦恼。

人生苦短，何必为了名利，为了升职加薪而给自己太多压力呢。还是及时享乐，开开心心的过日子吧！！！

不过话又说回来，money come with title,有谁会不想要呢？人啊，就是这样矛盾！

Colour Vision Deficiency

2008-03-06T01:36:00.005+11:00

Today, Samuel has a medical appointment at Student Healthcare Clinic. This appointment is to check his eyes vision.

The result is, he has colour vision deficiency. CVD is usually an inherited condition. A person with CVD has difficulty in telling certain colours apart. This is due to a defect in the colout-sensitive cells of the eye. Samuel's is red-green deficiency, which mean, at time he is not able to differentiate the colour of red and green.

Not a serious one. He can differentiate green and red seperately, but he got some answers wrong when told to read the number from colourful dots.

I belive most of you has done this test before when you are young. The test looks like this :

Was told by the doctor this was caused by gene. I might be the carrier as my bro also has this problem. CVD can't be cure. The doctor has issue him a certification letter. This letter can be use for "O" level physic exam or army or when he apply for job etc.

Hope this will not affect his future career or life style.

Yesterday have the CNY dinner with my colleagues at Si Chuan Dou Hua Restuarant at UOB Plaza, 60th storey. The food of course nice la, so expensive. But the best part is, from the the restuarant, it has a nice view of Singapore, Marina Bay and even the 观景轮。

Took some pictures from there, but not very clear.

过新年

2008-02-13T15:27:00.003+11:00

今年的新年似乎没什么气氛。好些东西也没买.衣服更在last minutes才买好，还是within one hour 的lunch time 买的。

除夕的前一晚，拿车，买年花，洗车，近3am才睡。除夕早上，6am就起床，只睡了三个小时，一整天无精打采的。年夜饭又是摸到八点才开饭。吃吃喝喝，收拾洗碗，已是十点多。摸这摸那，都快1am.别提守岁，还是会周公要紧。

大年初一，叫两个小的跟爷爷奶奶拜年，儿子说，明天拜后天拜还不是一样，反正每天都见面。正受不了他。不过说真的，新年应该向一些少见面的亲戚朋友拜年，叙叙旧，较有意思。要不然，一家一家地去拜年，又没车子的话，还真的是顶累的。

今年倒是没闲着，到亲戚朋友家拜年，顺便赌一把。我独运不佳，输了$30. 两个小瓜倒是赢了不少，nina samuel个赢了$40++吧！

时间过得真快，新年就在，steamboat, bak gua, 黄梨挞，ban lak 中度过了！

我的中学同学

2008-02-03T21:19:00.002+11:00

昨天出席了中学同学的婚礼，很奇怪吧！都一把年纪了，还在出席同学的婚礼。男生39岁结婚还好吧！

这是他的照片

我相信大家都很期待这次的“聚会”，因为有多年不见的朋友从马来西亚和香港回来出席晚宴。大家认识有26年了。其中就有同学提议，搞个30年聚会，再多四年吧，到时候，可以登报，把所有的同学都找出来。

这就是我的中学同学
