As I have a course to attend the next day, and the venue is quite far from my place, and I am not familiar with the place, which means, I have to leave my place earlier to look for the venue.

Weekend

18th Aug (Sat)

Church friend husband cremation day.  Called up another church friend who is staying at the same kampong if she's going.  Yes, she's going and we arrange to go together.

On the way, while chatting, she was mentioning she's a Malaysian but Permanent Resident of Singapore.  She will travel to the General Hospital in Johor for her medical appointment.  Was telling her, I need to work, if not, will follow her to Johor.

And as she's a Senior, she need not pay a single cents for her medical fee.  Haiz... My mum has to pay for medical fee.  Hmm, maybe I should shift my mum to Malaysia and see doctor at the General Hospital in Malaysia.

After everything is over, church friend and I went for lunch at a nearby coffeeshop to have our lunch cum chit chat before going back.  I had seafood claypot rice @ $5.  When the food arrive, it looks like vegetable rice to me as more vegetables.  Ingredients include vegetables, fishcake, squid and prawn.

19th Aug (Sun)

Since yesterday I didn't go church and my mum doesn't want to go out.  I went for workout at my kampong and then 2nd service, english service.

After service, went Bukit Merah View for lunch, had fish don from a western food stall in the hawker centre @ $4.  Of course, the food can't compare to those sold as in the Japanese restaurant.

As I message Mr and Mrs Choo younger son towards the end of the service, I only receive the reply when I was having my lunch, so after lunch, head toward the hospital to visit Mrs Choo.

This round, she repeat a few times she wants to die, die better.  And ever said ask Jesus to let her die.

After visiting Mrs Choo, a cup of coffee @ $2 in NUH Medical Centre.

And a packet of chicken wing nasi lemak @ $5.90 for my mum.

Pre weekend

17th Aug (Fri)

Pass by this eatery place in Jurong Point several times, but yet to try out their foods.

Decided to try it out after I knock off.  At that point of time when I was there, it was off peak hour.  I place my order at the cashier and took my seat as I was told, they will call my number.

Service was slow as it took quite a while for them to prepare the food.  Then the auntie calls out, wanton mee, I ignore as I didn't order wanton mee, then she look at me.

So I went over, and she told me that the wanton mee was ready, reply her I order mee siam, she then went to look at the duplicate piece of receipt and ya hor, mee siam and not wanton mee.

My nonya mee Siam @ $4 which has beansprout, shredded egg, tau pok.

At first, I was thinking, how come I saw from the menu, there's prawn, but mine don't have when my food was serve.  Only to realize there's two small prawns hidden below.

The food, so-so only.

Was craving for cake, bought a piece of cheesecake @ $4 from Four Leaves. 

A new week

13th Aug (Mon)

The new timing for sending my mum back will starts today.  I was told to standby 15 minutes before the stated time, as they might send back earlier.

Depending on the day, as some clients, they do not go to the Day Care Centre every day.  Sometimes, some clients, due to some reason, they did not go to the Day Care Centre.  It also depends on the traffic condition.

On the first day of the new timing, my mum was send back 15 minutes before the stated time.

My dinner - tendergrill chicken burger

I was quite tired and don't feel like going for Bible Study Fellowship, but in the end, drag myself to go.

15th Aug (Wed)

Early in the morning, brought my mum for her medical appointment.  The shocking part is that when they take her blood pressure, it was 162 at the measurement station.  Inside the doctor room, her blood pressure was taken again, this round, ok.  So I ask the doctor, how come her blood pressure when first taken, it was 162.  Doctor was mentioning, some elderly, when they go to the doctor, they are afraid, so the blood pressure shot up.

 After seeing doctor, collect medicine, make payment.  Ask my mum if she wants to go elsewhere to makan or go Day Care Centre, she wants to go Day Care Centre, so bring her to the Day Care Centre.

As in the Day Care Centre, everyday, blood pressure will be taken.  Ask the staff if my mum blood pressure has ever that high, 162, I was told, nope, never has my mum blood pressure that high before.

After settle my mum in the Day Care Centre, bring her medicine back home and then I was out again, to attend a wake of a church friend hubby.

Before attending the wake, went for lunch at a coffeeshop.  Had signature mee kia at $4.50.

And at night, it's time again to do homework for Bible Study Fellowship.

Usually on Saturday, I will bring my mum go for cellgroup at the church follow by service.

But recently, I started going for an exercise and if go for cellgroup at church, will be rushing, so I didn't go for cellgroup but only service. 

After the exercise, I need to buy lunch for my mum.  I had chee cheong fun @ $2 and tabao sliced fish porridge for my mum.

While waiting for the transport, Uncle Tang is there, again he said he wanted to give me an ang bao as he mention 3 person visit him during his stay in the hospital, the Senior Pastor and Chinese Ministry Pastor of PPH Brethren Church and me, tell him no need.  Lucky, when he open his bag, he has no red packet in his bag.

National Day/Pre-weekend

Today is a Public Holiday (National Day), but I still need to work.  My mum do not need to go to the Day Care Centre.  Told her that I will buy dinner back for her after I knock off.

After I knock off, I was at JEM, need to buy grocery from the supermarket.  Thought that there won't be so many people as people will go Marina Bay watch National Day Parade or fireworks.  But I was wrong, the whole shopping mall and the supermarket, mountain people, mountain sea.

Unagi Yakitori Don from Isetan supermarket for my mum.  Supposed to be $12.80, but special offer $9.80.

I had Nagomi Bento Cod Fish, also suppose to be $12.80, but special offer $8.80.

Watch a bit of the National Day Parade, then start on my Bible Study Fellowship homework.

10th Aug (Fri)

When the staff fetch my mum, I was told, Monday, there will be a change in the timing of the transport.  But the timing not confirm yet as there will be a discussion about the route as there's a new client staying further away from the Day Care Centre.

I thought I will make a quick trip to the Day Care Centre to check with the person-in-charge.  She told me about the roughly timing, but not confirm yet as there will be a discussion with the two staff who are doing the fetching and sending back.

After I knock off, went to the Day Care Centre to re-confirm with the staff in-charge.

My dinner － chicken burger
