Thunderstorm

This morning,after CT left for work, I stayed awake throughout though it was only 630am. Checked my email and did some stuff on the computer. Chatted with Gek Teng when she on her computer and is online. I asked her if she wanted to try my yellow squash dish for lunch, then she said she got a lot of food as well, so, this time, she said, she will come over to my place for lunch.

In the morning, I was playing my guitar and wrote a song about the accident and the whole experience I have gone through and learnt. It is about, despite what had happened, praise God! The song is titiled, "He is my Father." I was singing and crying as I was touched by God's love. Amazing time singing alone..and with God.

Gek Teng came about 11 plus am and I asked her if her place got water, she said no. The water supply has been cut off cos they doing some renovation next door and took out the whole toilet bowl. But anyway, we had our lunch. Quitc enjoyable eating together and watching TV together. We watched the MTV 2005 Movie Awards Ceremony. I was amazed at the video crew as the effects are really cool. They did a spoof of Batman Begins movie show and Star Trek Movie show. And when Mariah Carey came out to sing, she was coloured, while the rest of the dancers, musicians, audience were all shown in black and white. How did they do that kind of effect?

After lunch, we tried to turn on the tap, and spurts of water came out and then, the water was flowing. However, when I filled up my water bottle to check the water, it was yellow! yeeks. So, Gek Teng suggested letting the water run first. After yellow, the water turned became murky as well. I was wondering if I could still cook tonight's dinner. Gek Teng commented that she is glad she not cooking dinner tonight. Usually, on Fridays, we would go out and eat since the next day no work for our husbands, but I told her that I am sick of eating out and moreover, I still have lots of food in my fridge as my family went grocery shopping and bought so many stuff before they left. Gek Teng will be trying the new Chinese Restaurant near our place. It is buffet and I just did not feel like eating buffet again.

After watching the movie awards, we went to check our mailbox and then,dropped by at Angeline's house since her place is near the mailbox. We seldom walk over to her place as it is further from our place. Angeline is about 5-6 months pregnant already and she will be leaving for NY soon...alone!! She will be meeting her mum and bro there. She also hopes to go California without her husband. Maybe she is tryin to travel as much first before the baby is born. Ha..

After an hour spending at her place, I went back to cook my stew. The water was clear already and I cooked luncheon meat, chicken stew (adding celery, carrots, potatoes). I also roasted drumsticks and wings in oven. I cooked at about 5pm as the sky was very dark and there was a thunderstorm. So, I quickly cook just in case the electricity goes out. Gek Teng quickly went to bathe. Ha..

When things like this happen, people tend to appreciate home better. The security we have in Singapore. Oh well.. Anyway, nothing happened. It was just heavy rain and thunder. Had a great dinner. CT brought back fried prawn sandwich back from work and I put it in fridge for tomorrow's breakfast. Company provided lunch today as requested by CT. He is a faciliator and so, he suggested having lunch provided yesterday and today. Yesterday was fried chicken and steak while today is seafood.

After eating, we watched our VCD. It is very exciting. I love the HK actors and actresses. They are old and experienced. I prefer them to the young actors. Watched 2 discs tonight since tomorrow no need to wake up early.
