Cebest Anniversary

 

 

 This is a video I had done to remember Cebest. It took me a few years to be able to get over it and to create the video.  Today is Cebest's 15th death anniversary.  

I had always wanted a dog.  Richard bought me a dog, Baby, but due to pregnancy, it had to be given away.  After that Richard left the family.  He returned again after about less than 2 years.  Then one day, his friend lent him a car.  He drove to Pasir Ris and there we saw so many dogs.  We looked around and we liked Cebest.  Love at first sight.  We decided to buy him.  I bought the dog for him.  

But I am the one looking after the dog.  I bathed for him, gave him food and he slept with me.  He followed me everywhere I went.  We were always together.  When I sat at the table to use the computer, he would laid down below the table, waiting patiently for me.  

When I put on the shoes for him, he knew that he was going out.  He would be so happy, jumping about, dashing around, waiting to go out of the house.  Because of the vaccination, he died.  Now I am very scared to bring Dora for vaccination.  Her yearly vaccination is due.  Should I bring her for vaccination?  Dora is 2 years old now.  I had not brought her for vaccination.  

Isaac wanted a dog.  He wanted a Dachshund.  But it was so expensive.  Furthermore I am scared the dog and cat would fight.  I did not hope for another dog.  Two is enough.  Having Baby and Cebest is enough already.  I hope they will be happy now in heaven.

Toto Tickets

 

2 winning Toto tickets

My mother gave me 2 winning Toto tickets -- 3 winning numbers only.  I went to claim the prize on 18 May 2021 as I was afraid of encountering crowds.  So I went to claim at Woodlands North Plaza on Tuesday morning.  There was no queue and I got my money very fast.   I just gave them the tickets and they gave me the money.  

2 winning tickets paid out of $43.60

I received a total of $43.60 from the two tickets.  $43.60 is considered a lot for me considering the fact that I cannot even earn this amount in 4 hours.  I worked as Foodpanda rider and for 4 hours, mostly I cannot even earn $32!  

Yesterday I went to Causeway Point Challenger to buy 2 MicroSD card for my mother.   As I am not a Challenger member, I need to pay $7.50 for each card.  Member price is $7.00.  So I paid a total of  $15 for two cards.  I would transfer some songs to her.  She loves listening to songs.  

Sometimes if I have inspiration, I would buy Toto or 4D, especially if there are special dreams.  However, I hardly win, or should say never win.

Terrapins' Home

 

Dora was so curious to see the terrapins' new home

The terrapins had moved home.  The children had decided to give the terrapins a bigger home, a bigger space for them to move.  I chose this box for the terrapins.  The children washed and transferred the pebbles from the small container to the big box.  Then they decided to put in larger rocks for the terrapins to climb.  

Oscar and Opal swimming in the pool

Now Oscar and Opal have bigger space to swim about.  We love watching the terrapins swimming so well in the water.  They can float so well.  Even Dora was so fascinated at it.  She kept watching and even use her paws to touch the water and terrapins.  That was so cute to watch.  

The terrapins new home in the process of decorating

It's more than one week since the children changed the home for the terrapins.  There is no need to change the water everyday.  For the old container, the children changed the water every month.  Now for this new home, I think it would be one month too.  

The terrapins came to our home on 2 March 2021.  It's coming to 4 months!

SG Bean Sprouts

 

SG Bean Sprouts purchased from Giant

Purchased a packet of SG Bean Sprouts from Giant some time ago.  It was vacuum packed.  There was no date stated when it was packed.  So I have no idea whether it was fresh a not.  But it looked 'white' and there seemed to be no rotten ones from external view.  So I bought it.  

Back home, I opened it up, and was not very satisfied with it.  It was so wet, mushy and the bean sprouts were bruised.  I wanted to break the root but it was not crisp at all.  After plucking a few, I finally gave up.  I only managed to have like one third of it left to cook.

SG Bean Sprouts opened and laid on paper

I used the bean sprouts to cook Fried White Bee Hoon.  I added in frozen prawns, vegetables and bean sprouts.  I ate the Bee Hoon with Heng's Crispy Prawn Chilli.  Heng's Crispy Prawn Chilli is very nice and it goes well with the Fried Bee Hoon.  

Fried White Bee Hoon with prawns and vegetables

The best bean sprouts is still those that buy from the market.  But I saw Giant selling bean sprouts like those in market -- displayed in big baskets and you can pick your own.  This is the best.
