Halelujah! Praise the Lord!

It has been a long saga. from deciding to send our daughter to do a professional course way back in 2007 and to see its eventual end today.

Praise the Lord for this day. It is the day that my daughter transit from the world as a formal accounting student into the real  world of  bean counting.

We have seen God's favour upon us as we uphold his Holy Name. Yes, a milestone for the family and for my daughter in particular. As the good Book says, if God is for you, who can be against you. Neither circumstances, powers and principalities if you have the spirit, armour and sword of  God.

We thank the Lord for the joy he is bringing into our home.

Amen.

Goodbye Gorky of Old

The legendary Gorky Park is no longer sacrosanct.  It has been included into a development programme to make over  and to modernise the landscape so as to make it attractive.

In the picture, a couple danced near the Moscow River in celebration of the checkered glory of the park's  halcyon days.

Realistic Moving Stills- Interesting

Yes, these truly spooked me at first. But today, with computers and software, anything is possible.

Click on the pictures to view the effects.

Enjoy!

Shaddup,Bird!

Yes, this is no ordinary domestic scene.

Oftentimes, it is quite the opposite.

More reminiscent of Mad Magazine's The Shadow Tells.

Marc Anthony and Tiger's Losses

Yes,it depends how you look at it.

Both ladies have their exes too, I am sure.

Why they gave away of shared lives that they were so sure of when they did get married is beyond all comprehension.

I would understand why Erin Nordegrin reacted the way she did after Tiger's transgresses.

But why J. Lo? Are 7 years a mere trifling and a pair of twins to boot of little consequence?

There is definitely more than meets the eye here.

I read today of Erin and a billionaire's scion of a son adating.

Interesting what the billionaire's son sees in Nordegrin. I do.

As for Jennifer Lopez, what are you not telling?

Whatever it is, I know  that both Marc and Tiger will be missing them so.

A Shout in the Shadows

There will always be this sense of unease when you are accosted by strangers.

In fact, in one of my English comprehension exercise to my students, I had one that dealt with dealing with strangers.

The most succinct points were those of escape.

When accosted, do not engage the strangers if possible. Try to get away from the situation. If there is harassment, shout for help.

And so it came to passed.

I was walking towards my car after class just last week.

While walking in the dark five-foot way, suddenly I heard a shout. A man on a motorbike harkened to me as if in need of help to get directions.

I smelled a rat. He could easily had stopped at the brighter coffee-shop areas to do that. Yet, he chose me walking solitarily in the dark shadows-an easy prey.

So, I pretended not to have heard him and quickly walked into the beckoning light of the coffee shop. Safety,at last.

I took my own advice,so it seems straight from the text of my own lesson!

Passing On

Yes, a morbid issue indeed to blog.

My good old neighbour, Mrs Tang, passed on about 10 days ago.

I did not know about the passing on until the day she was cremated.

Looking back, I know another nice lady such as the late Mrs Tang.

There was our affectionately known wife of the manager of Chung Keow Bank. Never got to know their names.

She was so friendly and used to give us things.

In fact she introduced us to fresh scallops. We did not know what it was and had to go to the nearby market to ask the fishmongers what it was;only to be told that it was konichi or scallop.

She passed on when we were in Penang.

God bless the souls of both this lady and Mrs. Tang.
