I was ask to "travel" to another branch to help the manager to collect things.  And was extended by 1/2 hr to finish off some work before going back.

As the staff of the Day Care Centre WhatsApp that he will be a bit late in sending my mum back, I went JEM to have a quick bite before going back.

3rd Aug (Fri)

After my mum boards the transport, I walk over to PPHCSC,  when I open the door, the queue for the weekly breakfast was long.  No thank you, I do not have the luxury time to queue for just a plate of bee hoon with youtiao, otherwise I will be late for work.

Again, I was ask to "travel" to another branch to collect things.  1/2 hr was extended to complete my job.

My dinner - takeaway mixed maki @ $3.80 from one of the Japanese Restaurant in JEM.

I do not have enough time to buy grocery before going back to wait for the transport to bring my mum back.  So, got to make a trip to the supermarket to buy grocery.  Pass by Ya Kun and saw the Kaya Durian Toast, so bought a set (with coffee) @ $4.80.

Starting of the week

23rd Jul (Mon)

Since there's still a bit of time before my mum comes back, the other day, while having coffee in a halal eatery place in JEM, saw customer eating kueh lopes , I bookmark it as I didn't eat it for a while already.

Kueh lopes @ $1.60, after that, have to quickly take a bus back to wait for my mum's transport back.

I thought of having yong tau foo at the food court at my work place there, but was busy that I knock off a bit later, so no yong tau foo for me.

Tabao a packet of mixed rice from the interchange back to makan before starting on my Bible Study Fellowship homework.  Mixed rice @ $3.80.  

Week 27 (Part 2)

27th Jun (Wed)

While waiting for the transport with my mum, open the letterbox.  A surprise awaits me.

Receive a postcard from TM who went Hong Kong with his wife recently.

Since Bible Study Fellowship has resume, of course, there's homework to be done.

Beside, raining like cats and dogs.

So, my meal will be maggie mee with egg and meatball.

As when I thought that the weather is "fine" after the rain in the morning, it started to drizzle at 6 plus before the start of the workout.  Disappointed as yesterday, due to Bible Study Fellowship, no workout for me and I thought I could burn away some calories and now no workout.

28th Jun (Thur)

I was at the supermarket in JEM buying grocery.  Then nasi lemak came into my mind.

So my lunch is nasi lemak @ $4.80.  The nasi lemak set comes with 1 oath, 2 ebi fry, 1 fishcake, ikan bilis with peanuts and a slice of cumember.

Then I was thinking about whether Uncle Tang and the neighbourhood Uncle has been discharge. Since I did bring my original identify card (nowadays, usually most of the time, I don't bring my original identify card out, unless I need to go to the bank, see doctor, etc), i thought I will make a trip to the hospital to check it out. 

Uncle Tang is still there.  Good news that I heard from him is that, he can be discharge tomorrow, but his next-of-kin is not free to fetch him.  So he will be discharge on Monday.

As Uncle Tang is in Jurong Community Hospital (Tower C), I was not too sure what's the difference between Ng Teng Fong Hospital (Tower B) and Jurong Community Tower (Tower C).  So I went to ask the nurse, I was told, Tower B is for acute condition whereby Tower C, more to rehabilitation.

After visiting Uncle Tang, went over Tower B to check whether neighbourhood Uncle has been discharge.

As I have register last Friday when I visited Uncle, from what I understand, if the patient is still in the ward, I do not need to register again.  I just need to scan my identify card in the gantry.

When I was in the ward, I couldn't find Uncle, a nurse must be seeing that I am lost, ask me who am I looking for, and she help sme to check, then realise that Uncle has change ward.

Another good news, Uncle can be discharge on Monday.

A cup of coffee before I go back

Since I didn't exercise for 2 days, must exercise liao.  Workout with macho instructor to burn off calories.

Out of Sudden

My mum, who nowadays, hardly wants to take bus out to elsewhere, except on Sunday,  when she goes to church, out of sudden, tell me that she wanted to eat the porridge from KFC.  The nearest KFC from my place is JEM. 

When in KFC, i ask her if she wanted to eat other things beside the porridge set from KFC, if she wanted to eat other things, i will order one set and then we go eat elsewhere, if not, i will order 2 sets.  She wanted to eat other things, so only order one set.  She eat 3/4 of the porridge, left only 1/4 of the porridge for me.

The porridge set comes with a cup of coffee

Saw that they sell Cheese Tart at $1.90, i order one of it only as my mum is not keen of tarts.

The inside of the Cheese Tart

After eating KFC, my mum not so keen to walk around and decide what to eat, went to the nearby eatery to eat the Minced Meat Kway Teow @ $4.30.

Soup to goes with the Minced Meat Kway Teow

My not so healthy stuff, one piece of Beancurd Roll with Fish Paste @ $1.30 and a piece of Ngoh Hiang @$1.70.

Before going back, my mum thought of going McDonald's to have their Ice Cream, but then McDonald's was crowded, so we went to the Kopitiam at Jurong East MRT Station.  At first, my mum wanted dessert, then she change her mind, she wanted Bread with Kopi Set, ordered a French Toast Set @ $2.80 for her. Since she had the Kopitiam Card, so there's 10% discount.

I had Steamed Glutinous Rice @ $2

Ichiban Bento

I was at the supermarket in JEM doing my grocery.

This round - Had the Kaisen Fry Don (Seafood) @ $8.50, it comes with 2 pieces of fried fish fillet, 2 pieces of squid ring.

Ichiban Bento

Whenever i goes to the supermarket at JEM, i will walk pass Ichiban Boshi and then i saw that they sell Bento set.  Bookmark the place and will try it out.

It's located at the basement of JEM, same level with Fairprice X'tra

One fine day, done with my grocery, i pop by the place and see what they had in the menu, they do have quite a number of variety to choose from that i do not know which to choose, the cashier lady point to me that the Salmon Teriyaki is quite popular, ok lah, so i chose the Salmon Teriyaki set @ $10.80.  It comes with potato salad, pickles, fried gyoza and half breaded egg. Only that i find that the rice is a bit too much.  If i were to know about it, will have tell them lesser rice.
