Happenings from 23 to 27 May 2011

Hello all! How are you all doing?
I was sick, and took a day MC yesterday. =(

Anyway, over the past week, my colleague brought me to a nice place for dinner last Tues. =)

The name of the place: Vintage Delicafe.
It is located at 66 Bussorah Street 199479 (nearest MRT station: Bugis) and halal too! =)
You can visit their website HERE.


It is a cosy place, and serves nice pasta! 
Do book table as its full house on days like Friday nights.


I took the Aglio Olio with sliced Dory Fish.
(Pasta* sautéed with garlic, capsicum in olive oil served with sliced dory fish)

 
Yums!

We always come across weird/unusual happenings, this is what i encountered last week.


Firstly, last Sat while on the way for my Passion Run, i saw this on the MRT..


The uncle (folding arms in this picture.) ''drive'' the mini motor right into the MRT cabin! At first i thought he was having some medical problems, but was shocked when he stood up to sit on the seats!!

He later took out his plastic box(i guess its his lunch) and started cleaning it with tissue papers and throwing small pieces of left over food on the seats..

Another unusual thing i saw during the dinner on Tuesday.

 
The funny traffic light!
One was facing the pedestrian, the other facing the opposite way!!
(My colleagues were laughing at me, while i took this. HAHA.)

And, i got myself this!! =D

100 Plus Passion Run 2011 - 21 May 2011

My first 12km run.

With not much training before hand, my leg muscles cramped towards the last 3km.. however i pulled through it..

Overall all, was a good experience..
Running along the running track of East Coast Park, with the sea breeze blowing at you, and of course, plenty of water points (100 Plus!!)

Surprises me when i bumped into 2 of my friends, while running. HAHA!
Coincidence! =)

After about 1 hour and 50mins of jogging, and walking, this was what i was aiming for!



My finisher medal!
The lanyard was so nice, right? =)



And i think i should invest on this NWZ-W252 Walkman® Player as my companion while jogging...

Mum's nanny, passing away..

Today during lunch, we got a phone call.
Mum's nanny passed away in hospital this afternoon.

My bowl of porridge suddenly turned bitter, upon hearing this news.

She was such a nice lady, who took care of my mum during her younger times.
Mum brought me along when i was a kid to visit her house.
And every time we are there, she would make milo, take out the biscuits and starting serving us.

However, due to a fall, few years back, she was being bed ridden and only survived on a tube, transferring milk through her mouth.

Few months back, Mum and i visited her again in the nursing home she was staying in.
As she was not able to talk, all she could do was stare at us. I am sure she still can recognize us, but she just could not talk.

Although we expected such things, but i did not want it to happen so soon.

Death is a debt we all must pay. ~Euripides

Only problem is : when?

Dear Nanny, Thank you for the great memories.
Please take care of yourself in the other world.

Dear Mum, Stay strong. *HUGS*
