went for church just now.

the priest told a very good story which i shall share with u ppl.

once there was a mango tree in a certain backyard of a poor family. the family gave birth to a boy and as the boy grew to a little kid, he always played with the mango tree, climbing and down and often fell on the grass with the mango tree comforting him.

soon, the boy grew up and and could not climb the tree anymore. the mango tree felt sad. but the boy will still talk to the tree at times.

one day the boy came and tell the mango tree that he could not play with her anymore as he needs to earn money for the family. the mango tree felt worse but offered to give him the mangoes on her branches which he can sell for some money.

then as the boy gets married and have a wife, he told the mango tree that he needed to build a house in which the mango tree again offered to give her branches to the boy to build a house. the boy thanked her and went ahead to cut the branches off.

after that, he wanted to build a boat to bring his family out on a trip but could find no materials. again, the mango tree offered him her trunk in which can be used to build a boat. the man gladly accepted and proceed to cut the tree even though she screamed when he did that.

the mango tree remained a stump throughout the years. the boy is now an old man and came back to find her. the boy told him that he is tired and wishes to rest in which the mango tree had nothing left to offer except a stump for him to sit on. the boy sat on the tree and talked to her for a long time.

after awhile, the boy died.
and the mango tree had given herself to him ever since he was a boy.

touching eh?


i wonder how many readers dislike the way i write about daily affairs.

i believe my words/text brings lots of double meanings and sarcasm which might exercise ure brain a little. or probably it might be unneccesary. but still i find it fun to project myself as like that.

projector! beam u ah!

yst's dinner was GREAT! probably one of the best korean food i've eaten. not to forget that i dun really eat korean food often

the place is Awon Korean Restaurant at Excelsior Hotel, 5 Coleman Street(next to peninsular hotel) 11am-3pm & 6pm-11pm.

the normal ordering of food is quite nice but we didnt try that.

upon ken's recommendation, we went for the steamboat buffet.
there isnt really alot of things for us in a buffet but even so, the food is fabulous. the soup rocks, the beef rocks as well as the ppl that ate with me :D

ken claimed the beef and pork cannot make it but me, suling and jasmin in the end found out the beef is the best.

all they had was an assortment of appetizers, beef, chicken, pork, shredded cabbage, carrot, tang hoon, mushroom, soup, prawns and rice. not very worth it if u wanna chiong for variety but is good if u wan a simple meal. thanks ken for the treat!

after that we went walking and arrived at Eski Bar in Boat Quay.

i cant really take alcohol well, so i drank only 1/3 of a cup. the place is quite chilly especially in the cold room (i would love to stay there longer). but elsewhere out of the cold room, the place is filled with smoke as in cigarette smoke. many times i almost choked when breathing. i definitely do not like smoke.

and probably will ask jasmin to bring me to Number 5 for a walk next time. went home on a cab with ken. after he arrived at commonwealth, the journey went haywire.. not to say i have baddest luck with taxi drivers. oh this one is quiet and doesnt talk much but his driving skills is really bad. i felt really nauseous as he speeds through the road cutting lanes and overtaking ppl.

his driving reminds me of playing Popkart or Daytona in my kind of skills except he did not banged into anything except for 1 ocassion where he almost crushed into another car on the expressway.
