Saturday
The last weekend seemed to fly fast. I was working on Saturday actually and was thankful that it was a half day and my health was getting better. A sense of contentment was in me to know there will be sweet and sour fish rice waiting for me when I reached home. (Papa bought one) At least, there was something to look forward to.
Time went fast. Strike one and I packed off to leave the working place. Brother and father were at home. There was not only sweet and sour rice, there was also Ee mee. I bought them all into my bedroom and set them onto my so call small dinning table and watch ‘Beauty and War’ (Jin Zhi Yu Nie) with a bottle of honey that was good for throat and with my air-con on. (Only occasionally)
Ironically, in such a relaxing ambience, and in the comfort of my bed after I finished my lunch, I was watching such a heavy show. Was a bit tired in catching the words by words politics between ‘liang liang’ and ‘gong nui’.. and even eunuch. (But I do felt that the script was beautiful sometimes)Perhaps I was tired, I fell asleep soon, wrapping myself with blankets and lying with my pillows entering into a dreamland. (Even though I knew it was so ‘sinful’ to sleep shortly after a meal. But thinking that my pillows and I have been missing each other, and thinking that I will run productively next week, I rewarded myself with such simple joyous gift.
Don’t ever underestimate what a sleep can do for you. I felt my heaty level in body dropped after my one hour sleep. Ulcer seemed to be better too and my mood was good. After which, I wash my clothes and read the newspaper. It was a leisure to me.
Soon, it was five. Time to meet pei at admiralty mrt. Together we meet man at Yishun and proceeded to kovan and headed to ‘xin wang cha can ting’ for a meal. This was the 2nd time I went to Xin Wang. (The 1st time I went to the branch at Marina Square.) I knew some people like the place some people dun like.. some people like the food some people likes the drinks whereas some people like the drink but don’t like the food.. I felt that I enjoyed the HK ice milk tea there although comparatively, not as authentic. But for the bo lo bao that I ordered, I am not very impressed. Fried chicken was normal. Anyway I still like the place a lot because I like the idea of cha can ting. But I knew pei and man felt that the food cannot make it and poor them as they were sort of accompanying me as I was the one who suggested it.
After our meals we went to see see look look walk walk. Even though Heartland Mall seemed small there were quite a few cute stalls around. I saw a brown top which got ‘air’. I felt tempted to buy it at the 1st glance.
After which we took bus to Ang Mo Kio we sat down again to have drinks. Reached admiralty at about 11am plus. Since there was pasam malam, I see see look look walk walk again. Reached home at about 11.45pm.
A simple yet relaxing Saturday with close friends. My thanks for you father.
Sunday:
The day was so comfortable. My bed was cool and I felt cool. Waking up for the day, I started it with 2 breads with butter and jam and hot hot teh si. While eating, I continued to watch ‘War and Beauty’. This particular episode was nice and I enjoyed it. After which , I set off to prepare to go to church.
Service was real and thought-provoking. I felt touched that day. Had always appreciate Pastor Rony’s sincerity.. I can feel his disturbance, stress and his love for the congregation and people.
I knew Father you are around at all times!
I walked out of church feeling the peace and feeling empowered, knowing that your light is upon me.
After which I walked towards Admiralty station going to Marina Bay to meet steph and kelly. Glad I am able to reach there before two. Met the 2 of them and song liang reached shortly after.. We were all wondering how the surprises will turn out to be..
Finally we saw the birthday gal of the day with liyi.. we were all hiding behind the grass with kelly holding on to the birthday cakes.. haha when it was getting excited the 2 gals went the other way.. so funny.. we had to get up and sort of to call them. They managed to see us. hee. we mum mum, fly kite, play zero point and hotscotch after which..It was fun!! And certainly a good workout. Happy birthday Ting! God bless you.
As I have to rush to aunti lan's place for family gathering and niece Xiang Ling Irish birthday celebration, I could not join the gals and song liang for ice cream ..
The occasion was at Hougang. was there at about 8.25pm. The place was full of small little ones, medium ones, big ones.. Glad to see my relatives..auntis uncles and cousins..nieces.. Am thankful that i have nice relatives .. I enjoyed the bbq chicken, satay, bee hoon, fried rice, chicken curry and many others..cooked by my uncle mostly..always felt he is a good cook! (if not wrong he really used to be chef..)
Left the place at around 9 plus. I enjoyed the day..and was thankful for it.
I enjoyed my weekends.
