Christmas advertisement

Just received a Christmas advertisement from M&S. Wow, Christmas is coming soon! :P

Mizuzo Wave Rider 13

I had this pair of Nike Air for many years. However, I only used it for running these few weeks and the entire sole dropped off! I still wear it to jog before I got a replacement pair of shoes.

My dear recommended me the Mizuno sport shoes. So, I got the same Wave Rider 13 as her. If  everything goes well, I will jog later.

Koufu

Took this picture while I was taking the LRT train. Do you find that the trees look like miniature toys? 

Sunrise at Sengkang

Took this photo at the LRT station. Sunrise is so amazingly beautiful! Recently, I have been waking up so early.

Swimming and Running

Today we had a fun day swimming and running! I barely can swim the length of the pool. I tried today and can, but breathless. I will be swimming more often as I enjoyed it a lot :)

Slowly picking up all the exercises which I haven't been doing for the past 10 years...

We saw some people playing baseball in the middle of the day. The weather was so hot and they are playing under the noon sun! 

 We swam at the indoor pool which was not deep. As I can barely swim the length, I need some foothold when I am breathless halfway. 

We tried this western restaurant at the sports complex after our swim. The food is quite nice.
 

We went for a run at the Serangoon park connector area starting from Punggol Park. Scenic track along the river with plenty of trees and beautiful sky.

 See! Beautiful evening sky!

We even saw a beautiful crescent moon.

Pasta de Waraku

We went to eat Pasta de Waraku. While eating, we had fun watching people playing the reverse bungee jump. So I took some snap shots with my iPhone 4.

The carbonara pizza we ate very nice! I love very cheesy pizza. The egg made it even nicer. Recommended.

 We ordered the regular size. I wish the pizza was larger as it tasted so delicious. We wanted more!

 I had this smoked duck pasta, spicy with garlic. This tasted very delicious too. With 6 thick slices of smoked duck. 

We walked about Central mall after eating Pasta de Waraku and we saw this Fisherman's Market. Think this will be our next dining destination!

Crystal Jade Stew Stingray

It tastes quite nice! 

Morning Routine

Recently, I have been waking up very early like 5-6am. No need alarm clock. And don't feel sleepy. I remembered those days when I still schooling in poly and uni, the first time I woke up was to boot up and use my PC! Today, when I wake up is to prac piano, do simple exercise (backlog of 10 years' of no exercise), check office emails (somehow I enjoyed checking office emails on my iPad and iPhone, which I couldn't do when I was in DSTA).


I should add the most important things of my life to the morning routine: Bible reading and QT. Will do it tomorrow, onwards. :)

Small River

New development in Sengkang

Riding on the LRT, we saw the construction for the new Sengkang development has begun.

Playmobil

We went to Plaza Singapura to eat Ichiban Sushi. Had been very long time ago since I went there. Auntie Judy is still there! She has been working there for so many years! :)

Then we saw this Playmobil toy. My dear had never played with them before. But it sure brought back childhood memories for me. 

Active lifestyle

Recently I started exercising. Not for health purpose but part of the sur plan. Due to 10 years didn't exercise, it started slow but will eventually reach it if, by the grace of God, I am still alive by then and if I can keep up the discipline. Another important reason is journey 45. Doing exercise also makes me feel active and happy. Just do some simple weights, jogging, chin-up, push up. I have terribly lousy strength when comes to carrying heavy things. Slowly changing all these... Let's see the progress in 2015.

New workstation

Just moved to a new workstation. I like the table and cabinets colour.

Korean ginseng chicken soup at Bugis Junction

I always enjoyed the nice Korean gineseng chicken soup at Bugis Junction food court at level 3.

McDonald's curry sauce

Can you imagine one person finished 6 packets of McDonald's curry sauce?

North Indian

This North Indian chicken briyani is very tasty! Found at Lau Pa Sat.

View from my office

Walking around my office and took some photo with my iPhone 4...Reflection of a building.

Buildings in CBD areas are usually skyscrapers but look at this beautiful building with tall pillars.

People who eat at CBD areas have this interesting behaviour of chope-ing the seats using tissue paper pack. Chope = reserve.

I have never seen this golden colour twin buildings. Probably new. Maybe built in recent few years. 

View from my office window.

Jog at Serangoon Park Connector

I finally started exercising. My second time running. First time was few weeks ago at Institute of Mental Health campus. Today, it was my first time using the iPhone app Nexercise is an exercise tracking program using iPhone's accelerometer. I am thankful to God that my stamina is not as bad as I initially thought! 

Moon and Tree Bark

 Walking around, saw the half moon over the clouds. iPhone digital zoom, no very sharp. 

Templar Knight minatures

Miniatures of the Crusaders on my office desk. They belong to one of my colleagues. Look at the photo depth-of-field. iPhone 4's DOF is actually good for a camera-phone (excluding those Jap keitai phones which have advanced photographic features).

Sushi at PS, then soup at Buangkok

As my dear went for piano class, I stayed back in office to clear some work. Then, I had my dinner at PS at the basement sushi place. Only around 12 pieces of sushi. Temporarily full.

 When I reached home at Buangkok MRT, I felt hungry! So dropped at the 老火汤 (Soup Master) to drink soup.

I drunk one of their premium favourites which has dried oyster, abalone-like thing and fish maw (or sea cucumber?). Definitely tasted nice!

Curry Chicken at Tanjong Pagar MRT exchange

Ate this curry chicken at Tanjong Pagar MRT. Found that this MRT station actually has lots of food to eat! 

Dome at Singapore Art Museum

We went to have our dinner at Dome cafe at the Singapore Arts Museum.

After dinner, we walked around the place and discovered that SAM has free admission on Friday nights. Can you spot the rabbits on the wall? This art is made up of solar/light-powered gadget that creates movement.

Took a night shot. iPhone 4's night photography capability actually not that bad huh? We saw the Hyung Koo Kang's exhibition. They are very beautiful! He really is very talented.

Korean Beef

Having Korean beef stew at Suntec City... 

Grumpy Fish

This face has a grumpy face! 

Learn to play Day By Day on Piano day 5

Almost can play with the right hand now on the 5th day. But some of the notes I played from memory as I can barely read the score. In addition to playing, I want to be able to read notes. Will start learning the left hand in November. Now trying to familiarise with the right hand and practice sing along. Quite difficult but fun.
