Subzone Thanksgiving Drama

Recently, the subzone did a drama for our thanksgiving and this is a part of the rehearsal done at my place. The members did not receive any professional training in acting but they put up a splendid performance during our thanksgiving which I am sure many of us enjoyed it.

Here is a small clip of the rehearsal they done at my place. Enjoy it while we get the full drama uploaded soon! :)

Merry Xmas 2009!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! to all. Early greeting from me as I guess I will be too busy in the next 2 weeks to update my blog. Will be having my annual Xmas dinner cum gift exchange with my fellow church leaders and also having a party with my family.

Of course, not going to miss the awesome Xmas drama production on the eve and Xmas day itself. This is my 8th year watching it! Some of you must be wondering don’t you get bored watching the same drama over and over again? NO! Because every year, the production team will come out with different way of portraying the Xmas story.

So if you have nothing much to do other than counting down or watching movies again, why don’t join me on the dates stated above? I am quite sure you will enjoy it! :)

Before I end, enjoy your holiday and have a great time with your family and loved ones!!!

Latest Update

Finally, I am back updating my blog after 2 months. I guess sometimes I am just too tired to write long paragraphs and then look for photos to insert into my blog entry. After all, blogging won’t be interesting without photos right?

Thus, these days I have decided to tweet more often. It is so convenient especially with my iphone. :) Anyway, brief update on what happened during these 2 months.

OCTOBER

I went to Korea for a holiday. I really enjoyed the scenery and the cool weather there. The only regret is that I was not able to shop much because this time we went with a tour group. :( I broke my lowest record, buying only 2 tops… For more updates on the trip, you can go to Em’s blog.

My favourite photo :)

NOVEMBER

Breakthrough month for me as I finally found a job! Though it is only a 6 months contract but I thank God for His provision. The remuneration is good and I fulfilled my dream of working in a foreign bank. Believing God that even before 6 months, there will be open doors to a perm position and pay increment :)

This month also started to be more discipline in various aspects of my life. Now, waiting up early in the morning to pray and jogging twice a week. I hope to participate in the Standard Chartered 10km marathon next year. Always remember what Pastor taught me, both spiritual and physical health are very important!

Life has been hectic but fruitful after I started work but I have learnt to plan and make full use of my time. Plan to further my studies so hopefully my next entry won’t be another 2 months later. :)

Wisdom Tooth Extraction

I had my wisdom tooth extracted 2 days ago and before that, I had heard a lot of scary stories concerning the pain, discomfort and the amount of bleeding that will come with the surgery. Thank God, the pain I had was quite minimal. 

I know many people tend to ask whether it is really necessary to remove our wisdom teeth. I mean, who would want to go through the pain and agony of the dentist twisting and drilling your tooth right. The answer I got from my dentist is that you should remove your wisdom tooth if any of these happens:

Crowding of the back teeth.

A wisdom tooth becoming stuck in the jaw (impacted) and never breaking through the gums.

Red, swollen, and painful gums caused by a flap of skin around a wisdom tooth that has only partially come in.

Gum disease and tooth decay in the wisdom tooth

Anyway, if you really have to extract your wisdom tooth, these are some tips that will help you to speed up your recovery. :)

Bite gently on the gauze pad periodically, and change pads every half and hour. Bleeding should stop after 24hrs (Don’t be surprised to see 1 full plastic bag of bloody gauze.)

Prop up your head with pillows to minimize bleeding.

To minimize swelling, you can apply ice pack on your cheek.

Based on what I have found out, you should eat ice-cream, yogurts, mashed potatoes or milk shake during the 1st 24 hrs (Good opportunity for those who are deprived of ice-cream. haha)

Do not use a straw for the first few days. Sucking on a straw can loosen the blood clot and delay healing.

After the first day, gently rinse your mouth with warm salt water several times a day to reduce swelling and relieve pain.

Continue to brush your teeth and tongue carefully. (This require great technique because you would not want to dislodge your blood clot.)

Wisdom tooth extraction is really not very scary except for some slight discomfort however, I must admit that it differs from different people. So if you really don’t want to visit the dentist so often and go through the “torture”, then make your teeth smile by taking good care of them. :)

Hooray!!! I am going to watch Formula 1, 2009!!!!

Woohoo!! I managed to get 2 tickets to watch the qualifying race of 2009 Formula 1 courtesy of Edmund Tay. And the tickets are not just those walkabout passes but actually Turn 1 Grandstand tickets that cost $1388 each!!! Thank God and Edmund for the blessing!

My wife is very excited and she has been checking on the website on how to get there and the various programs for the day. Mmm… I thought car racing is a guy thing? Haha. Anyway, this is our first time watching F1 cars zooming straight in front of us. I guess it is going to be very noisy but an experience for us. :)

Tried KFC Breakfast???

The very mention of McDonald’s Breakfast should ring a bell in us but certainly not KFC Breakfast. In fact, when Em suggested to have KFC breakfast, I don’t even know what they offer. Anyway, Em and I decided to give it a try.

I ordered the a.m Platter meal while Em went for Waffles & Eggs meal. Unlike all McDonald breakfast meals, the KFC Waffles & Eggs meal does not come with harsh brown. But of cos, the meal is much cheaper.

A.M Platter Meal

Waffles & Eggs Meal

Personally, I prefer McDonald’s hotcakes than KFC waffles. As for the platter meal, I think it is not bad and we love the honey biscuit. :) However, both the coffee and tea taste weird :( Or maybe it is just me. Haha

On the whole, I would give 3.5 out 5 for the platter meal and rating of 2 for the waffle meal.
