My Happy Meal

I was sold by the McGriddle advertisement. So, I asked LT to buy it for breakfast last Saturday. Since we eat very small portions, LT ended up buying a sausage McGriddle with extra bacon, a Happy Meal McGriddle and a cup of premium coffee. It was a good meal.

The HM packing is so attractive that it became my subject for another photography session.

A small electric guitar made of plastic was the toy, from the American Idol series. Talking about American Idol, I bought "If I Can Dream" from iTunes. Technology is amazing... the video performance was a recording from the Idol Gives Back charity show on April 25, featuring Celine Dion (the Diva) and Elvis Presley (the King) singing together on stage.

How it was done.

Wasp Stings

I got stung by a wasp!

No idea how it got into the shopping bag. When I put both hands into the plastic to get the blender that I have just bought, it stung both of my thumbs. I thought I got electric shock even though the blender was not connected to an electric outlet. Ough :-(

Not bad. I was able to do things in the correct sequence in an emergency :-)

- Applied Savlon cream that I used for my chicken pox and skin allergy. Remembered it can be used for insect bites.
- Called LT, just in case I have systemic or allergic reaction. Now I know that I will just have local reaction which is not serious.
- Searched on the internet if there was something else I could do. Ough...
- Ran cold water on the wounds for 10 minutes.
- Applied toothpaste on the wounds.
- Cleaned off the toothpaste after 4 hours. Good to go :-)

Hainanese Poem

The Hainanese poem that I learned from my mom long ago.

goi kia niaw niaw bo mai sua
ka ki hoh chiak ka ki dua
boi hu tim tua deen jeow tuak
ya kia hoh li ya kia tua

Time to call mom :-)

Rainbow Promises

I was listening to Max Lucado's podcast on Rainbow Promises, and heard ths interesting fact about rainbow. It is round when looking from outer space!

Captured this rainbow on a cloudy day on my way home, using my Motorola L6 mobile phone. Sunnyvale, 2006.
