Feeling Happy

Standing in front of the church hall, not knowing when I can receive Jesus ever...


I had not been updating the blog.  My computer is not working properly.  Now I'm trying to use the handphone to do so.  

Today I feel so happy because I took the opportunity to ask father (Gerard) about receiving holy communion.  As soon as I am prepared to go for confession, I can receive Jesus again.

Chilli Plant

 

My Chilli plant at the corridor garden

This is the first time my chilli plant has so many chillies -- nine chillies in total.  And last night, one of the chillies has turned totally red!  It's about 2-3 months from seeds to fruits stage.  

When I was young, if I saw chilli plant, I would pluck them and put them in my garden.  They never turned out well.  I never knew that I could grow them on my own, and it was so satisfying to see them from seedlings to fruiting stage.  

 

Taco sleeping soundly on the bed

Just like seeing the chillies plant, watching Taco growing well and growing bigger everyday was so satisfying as well.  On 27 February 2022, he was just so small when first brought home.  Now he has grown so huge, same size as the mother -- better shape, the mother was so skinny.

Midnight Fishing

 

Night view taken at Woodlands Waterfront Jetty


Went fishing at night and it was really cooling and fun.  The view was nice and there is no hot sun at all.  We cycled to Woodlands Waterfront Park and then towards the jetty.  There were still people at the jetty despite the late hour.  We found a spot and we laid our mats.  Then we started to fish.  

Years ago, I used to see people fishing at the jetty.  This time I went, I have yet to see anyone fishing.  I do not know if fishing was allowed because I saw the no fishing sign in front of the restaurant.  However, yesterday I saw the Fishing Etiquette!  So fishing is allowed.  

Fishing Etiquette at Woodlands Waterfront 

We fished for about 2.5 hours and we caught nothing.  In total, we went midnight fishing for about 3 times and it was all for fun.  We did not catch anything at all for all occasion.  We did not see anyone fish either.  

I saw the rubbish collector doing their job at the jetty.  They pushed their rubbish cart, emptying the rubbish bin along the jetty.  They also chose to work at night where it will be cooling instead of the day time hot sun.

Woodlands Waterfront

 

Photograph of my new bicycle

My old bicycle was not working anymore and I had to buy another new bike.  The above photograph shows my new bicycle.  There was not much options to choose at the bicycle shop at 888 plaza.  I just asked for the cheapest bike and was given a bike that I don't really like.  Next was this one above.  It cost me $322.  I asked for $320 and he accepted it.  So I ride off with my new bike.  

Yesterday, went cycling with Isaac.  We cycled to Admiralty Park, the Mangrove Swamp and then to Woodlands waterfront.  We had not seen the playground for a long time.  So we cycled to the playground first.

Isaac played at the playground for a while.  The playground was not crowded.  There were only a few children playing.  Besides the tall bridges for the children to climb, there were four swings.  Isaac loves to play with the swing.  It is so hard to find swings nowadays.  I tried the swings and felt a bit giddy, so I stopped.  After that, we cycled to the jetty.  

Beautiful Sunset picture of the Woodlands Waterfront

Felt so nice and relaxing at the jetty, to see the beautiful scenery.  We spent so much time taking videos and photos.  Isaac took more videos and photos because he was experimenting with his new phone.  As we cycled along the jetty, I saw a sign that showed No Fishing.  I was not sure if no fishing applies to the front part of the restaurant or throughout the whole of the jetty...
