Crystal Jade Reunion Dinner

February 14, 2015

Just now me and wife went to Westgate at Jurong, wah the shopping centre so damn big, so many shops so many food, see until my head giddy. We then went to the Crystal Jade at level 4 to eat with my family, ordered the $298 set meal and a $288 Pen Cai, so expensive, if add GST and service charge the whole dinner will cost almost $700! First dish was Yu Sheng, this one really good, different from those you buy at supermarket, so crispy and tasty. Then came the pen cai, first time eating haha, the soup so tasty but I don't like the dried oyster, so stinky, actually I only find the soup exceptional, everything else is quite normal, chicken, duck, pork leg, fish cake, abalone, I don't even eat abalone, too bad don't have rice, if eat with rice then really good. Then they served a plate of roast duck, so miserable small plate, braised oyster mushroom veggies and glutinous rice with egg strips. By this time quite full already, then they served a small bowl of fish, my father

Went to Mother House Just Now

February 14, 2015

Today my mother did her prayers thing and she cooked a lot of food and asked me to drop by to eat. There was chicken rice, braised duck, fried dumplings, fish, fishball/meatball soup with sichuan veggies, braised pork and tau kwa, eat until so full. In the past I thought her food doesn't taste so good, some are really good but most are experimental and kind of sucky but now it tastes really good. After dinner I had a long talk with my father, we drank guiness stout and talked all sorts of stuff, from work to my wife's pregnancy. He told me after I dropped by last Friday to pass my mother the ang pao, my mother went to buy 4D the next day using the last 4 digits of my NRIC 0521, it opened 2nd prize and she won $1000, so at least now I don't feel so bad for giving her $50 ang pao haha. So tomorrow we are eating at Crystal Jade at Westgate, heard from my sister it costs $470+, sigh, so expensive, might as well eat at Chinatown, $100 can order whole table and eat until full

Alamak Bad News Again

February 11, 2015

Yesterday we went to see my wife's cardiologist, everything is fine with my wife, she's feeling good and when doctor asked how many flights of stairs she can climb, I said 4-5, doctor commented that she's doing good. So nothing much yesterday, just see doctor and take medication and to visit again in April. I think this cardiologist is the best doctor ever, very friendly, humble and knowledgeable, my wife really like him haha. And today we went to get a scan at Kent Ridge FCC, we arrived at about 9.55am, registered and waited until about 10.30am, I told the counter staff that we have a 10.45am appointment at the gynae clinic and she said there's one patient before us, so we waited until about 11.05am, I got fed up and told the counter staff to cancel the registration, then she asked me to wait, I said I will wait for 5 more minutes, if still have to wait then we will leave, in the end we left but she called me to try to get us to go back and I insisted not to, only wh

Went to NUH and Mom House

February 06, 2015

Today went to the O&G clinic G, saw the doctor, nothing much, she did a basic scan and everything seems ok, my wife complained of regular burps and gases, doctor says it's normal if it's not every few minutes thing, due to tummy expanding and pushing up the stomach. So today didn't pay much, only pay $46 for repeat consultation. After that we took taxi to my mom's house, visit early since she will be going to Malacca during CNY with father so I wanted to give her ang pow first. This year didn't give much, $50 for mom $50 for father, $10 for niece and $10 for nephew, that's it. Then we went to re-contract my mobile line, I got the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4G 8GB White for $99, I retain my power value 100, still don't want to get data plan haha, no use for it actually so no point paying that extra money. Now wondering how much I can sell, the xiaomi site is $229, if sell shop I think at most they take $150, don't know see how.

DBS Changed Their iBanking Interface

February 06, 2015

Just log in to iBanking and found that their interface changed so much, looks much more modern now. Should have done it long ago. Anyway when I try to logout, they invited me to join their Treasures program, deposit $350k to get $1388, that's about 0.39%, well I don't have that kind of money but even if I have, I definitely won't deposit in bank, even if they give 1% also not worth it.

Just Ate McDonald's Big Breakfast

February 01, 2015

I think it's been a few years since I ate big breakfast, or rather Mcdonald's food, my wife don't like fast food chains so we rarely eat any but I love fast food, western food, burgers, chicken chop, pork chop and etc, I love these but wife don't like haha. She prefer home-cooked food because she thinks that fast food makes people fat, personally I think any food can make people fat if we don't exercise or eat too much. Anyway I went to the Queensway branch just across the road, about 5 mins walk, my wife kept saying it's far but it's not really that far, I didn't even break a sweat. When I reached there it's quite packed, usually when I pass by it's like a ghost town, the location is too isolated, unless you have a car or live nearby I don't think you will want to go there. Even though there was a queue, once they open up another counter, they cleared the queue real fast, I waited less than 5 minutes and my takeaway was ready. I paid $14

Had a Really Good Sleep Yesterday Night

January 31, 2015

Yesterday my neighbours didn't turn on their plane engines (aircon), so peaceful, I slept all the way to 10am uninterrupted, this morning I felt really fresh. Old HDB flat design not good, sound travels easily because some of the walls are hollow, another problem is the aircon compressor is installed outside the master bedroom, which means if the neighbour on top or left/right to your room is noisy, that's it, you are screwed, but then nowadays we got used to it, most of the time we can still sleep, sometimes when it gets too loud then really jia lat but how, complain also complain already, unless they are willing to change their aircon, I think they should seriously consider changing because if I'm downstairs and it's so loud for me, I bet it's even worse for them, I wonder how they can sleep through that noise. New flat design is much better, they have aircon ledge located away from the bedrooms, but not all new design is like that, have to look at the floorplan

Phew, Good News Today

January 28, 2015

We saw the paediatric cardiologist at clinic A, she did a scan which lasts more than an hour and she said she didn't see anything wrong so far but she wants to confirm with a follow-up scan two weeks later because currently wife is 20 weeks pregnant and the baby is small and difficult to get a good scan at the heart, but so far so good, the main valves looks normal, nothing unusual and she just wants to confirm again that the heart is okay on the next visit. The doctor mentioned that the baby is feisty, from the scan I can see baby is very active, always moving around lol. What a relief, I thought I was going to get bad news today, lucky everything seems fine, my mother-in-law even went to pray for the baby, maybe that worked. Wife is complaining how come need to go to so many clinic and do so many scans, looking back we initially went to the O&G, then they referred us to the women's clinic, then women's clinic referred us to child clinic which is the clinic A that
