Diver's Bash

We had a fun Diver's Bash today organized by kor. We had 10 people altogether.

Organizer: Siew
Assistant: Beckz
Team A: Richard & Tracy
Team B: Chuan & Apple
Team C: Adrian & Yvonne

Games are planned to provide education and FUN to the participants.

Pic 2: Seems like the briefing is fun

The logics of the games are:-

Game #1 (Guess my mind) - To show how inportant underwater communication is and how to communicate properly and easily for your buddy to understand.

Pic 3: Yvonne acting and Adrian guessing

Game #2 (Where is my gear) - To demonstrate that in desperate and unplanned situation....we must always remember to "Stop, Think and Act". Forgetting to do this will result in some seriously hilarious result...kekekekeke.

Game #3 (Pool relay) - This is basically a bouyancy control game.

Awaiting for babies

After much consideration, finally we plan to get hamsters instead of dog... :D since kor is still staying in his sis' house, not sure if his sis is ok with dogs or not.

Hence, there we went around and got a condo for our babies. Haven't found the babies that we like yet, so condo first!

The funny thing is, whenever we look at the condo, we will go like, "Hammy... Sappy...", calling the baby's name. xp A bit siao siao geh... hehehe...

Sharing / Updates

This morning, kor's parents finally went back to Malacca. They had been around since last Saturday. They stayed in kor's house. *That's why i was so busy, with mom's birthday celebration and time with kor's parents*.

Saturday - mom's birthday celebration, i was with my own family and went to grandma's house to celebrate mom's birthday.

Sunday - time spent with kor and his family. Kor brought aunty and uncle to Eye On Malaysia and tour around Putrajaya... :)

Monday evening - i joined kor and his family for dinner after work. Something very surprising happened before dinner at Kim Gary. HHmmm... Aunty (kor's mom) was in Poh Kong with Chris (kor's sis) choosing jewelries, and aunty asked me which is nice. Without me realising it at the beginning, actually aunty wanna get 1 for me as wedding gift next time. *sweat* Being brought up in a family where mom don't allow us to accept gifts from others, it was hard for me to accept it but in another hand, i have no choice but to choose 1. Goodness, so hard to decide that time...... Of course, finally got 1 very nice bracelet, I like it very much... heheheee... (*thanks aunty for accepting me in your family*) =)

**Thank you Lord for this great blessing to have kor and his very sporting family**

Tuesday - dinner with schoolmate (refer to the below entry)

Wednesday - today, mom's actual birthday which we had celebrated for her last Saturday... :) Didn't buy cake too coz mom don't want... so we didn't do anything at home... hahahaa...

Anyway, blessed birthday to my mom! =) Hopefully she will be proud of herself raising up her 3 kids alone. And i pray that she will enjoy the rest of her life having her 3 beautiful kids around her! :)

Catch up...

Had dinner with Fee Yuen and Lissa in Puchong. We planned to meet up and to taste the nicest prawn mee ever since we came back from our Penang trip few months ago but today only got the chance to meet up for real to taste the prawn mee. We called many ppl but only 3 of us make it at the end. Nevertheless, we had about 3 hours to catch up with one another and gossiping around... *ophs*... :p

Our next planned event will be in Nov to visit putrajaya at nite! :D

Hercules - World Largest DOG

Hercules: The World's Biggest Dog Ever According to Guinness World Records.


Hercules was recently awarded the honorable distinction of Worlds Biggest Dog by Guinness World Records. Hercules is an English Mastiff and has a 38 inch neck and weighs 282 pounds.

With "paws the size of softballs" (reports the Boston Herald), the three-year-old monster is far larger and heavier than his breed's standard 200lb. limit. Hercules owner Mr. Flynn says that Hercules weight is natural and not induced by a bizarre diet: "I fed him normal food and he just grew.... and grew and grew and grew...."

**Got this email from my friend so i thought i just post it up, not sure how true it is. ;p**

Mom's present

Things that kept me going at work since i'm not feeling that well is my mom's birthday present. xp

So eagerly wanted to go home after work coz i want to enhance mom's b'day present.

Her birthday is next week but my whole family will celebrate her b'day tomorrow. Therefore, by today, i need to get everything done.

Kor and I bought her present on Monday, but because wanted to enhance it further, i went to get something extra yesterday. (Of course she don't know what is it yet la...)

And now, while i'm blogging, i'm transfering some data into her present. :p

Hope that she will be very happy and surprise to see this b'day gift.

**Pics will be uploaded soon after the celebration for mom tomorrow ya!* :)

Fever

Yesterday, my colleague swap shift with me, therefore my colleague took my morning shift and i'm replacing her afternoon shift, work till 10pm.

Towards the evening, i felt one kind, those feelings like getting sick... while driving home, i actually felt that my hands and legs are a bit numb, not sure what sign was that...

After bathing, i felt quite bad like gonna faint anytime and inside my body was so hot... hhaaa.. after dinner, immediately went to bed. On the bed, i was struggling to sleep, felt tired plus some weird feelings... hands and legs are numb and i felt so hot inside... eeee... terrible...

Was awaken few times... never did i realised, it was 6am again, time to wake up for my morning shift.

Thank God, at work, i'm feeling OK... had medicine in the morning, then the rest of the working time, i'm quite ok... felt a bit hot at times... hahaa... since i'm not feeling well, i was a bit quiet than usual till my colleagues came to asked if i'm ok... they said i look sad... :( but i'm still okla... not really that bad... :D

MC

Terrible... Was having such a terrible headache till i could not wake up for work. Thus, a sms was sent to my techlead to inform him that i'm not feeling well.

I was basically lying on the bed and at home the whole day coz i was having the headache the whole day. Wanted to go out for lunch but can't stand with the headache so i gave up and just lay down on the bed.

Evening came, kor kor forced me to take 1 panadol.

Ehh... like magic la... after panadol, i felt so much better now. :D

**Haiya... i really don't like to eat medicine ler, if i can stand, i won't want to eat panadol... therefore, i don't simply take panadol wan.**

But but, thanks kor for forcing me to take it... I really feel better now. xp

Conversation with grandma

Too long didn't meet my grandma and grandpa (father side). I think coming to a year, goodness! Today while driving to work, i called grandma and chatted with her.

Hhmmm... felt quite uneasy while talking to her. Not sure why she tell me so many things about dad's woman!

1. That woman called my grandma????

2. That woman asked about us??? (*As in sis, bro and me)

3. Grandma told that woman that hoping to get better job for my sis and they suggested sis to work in dad's company???

4. Then, grandma and that woman suggested that mom, sis, bro and me go to stay with grandma coz nearer to dad's company???

5. Then... that woman asked grandma if my mom will beat her up if mom ever sees her if we stay so near them (dad and that woman)???????? *£%^&*^$%!£$

6. Grandma went to dad's hse during last Chinese New Year and grandma said that woman's son and that woman's son's gf was there too???

7. That woman's son is thin and short....... was doing housework that time, mopping the floor???

8. That woman's son and that woman's son's gf called my grandma and grandpa, "mama and yehyeh"??????? Which my grandma said don't know how to answer them coz it's a little awkward???

Hhhmmm....... i wish i do not know all this... hhhhmmmmm... and mom must not know about all this!

**Lord, I need YOU!**

My Sax

My saxaphone that I bought in 2003 that I hardly have space to blow coz it's too loud... :p


Kor kor said bring to his house to frame it up on the wall... heheheee (*of course cannot!*)


I remembered dad asked me once, why do I want to get a saxaphone. The answer I gave him... "Coz it's cool..." hehehheeee


Isn't it cool? :p But it's quite a hassle after every practice / blow coz need to clean up all the saliva that has been stored up in the saxaphone itself... kekekekeee...


Together in this big casing, it's seriously so heavy that I was once so scared to bring to music school... too heavy...


Look at it... man... so shiny and so nice!
