It's been a nice weekend. And to not work on Monday mornings adds the icing to the cake! All I need now is my coffee. :)

Times breezes through when I'm teaching on Saturdays. The students come in feeling much more relaxed. Here's Hana Zahra with her teddy bear.

Manchester United won against Portsmouth 5-0! =)

Sunday I went to my usual 'salmon steak' shop for my BBQ Lambchop Rice. The aunty there finally gave me a smile after so long! :)

Isn't a huge portion for only RM6 with iced lemon tea included? But then, somewhere near Pek Ling's place, Taman Permaisuri I think, there's this spaghetti this simply wonderful. The most expensive thing on the menu is RM6.50. The portion here - HUGE!

My models, Robin and Zavier. :)

On a low note, Arsenal failed to take any points from Chelsea. :(

It's been a great morning. My iMac and I. :)

Got to play Cluedo and Settlers of Catan last night. Silvia's turning out to be really good at Cluedo!

Here's a nice clip of Cantona sharing his favourite football moment. Football is a team sport. No 'I' in team. Looks like a T tho. ;)

And a superb assist from Guti last week. A no-look pass backwards! It doesn't get better than that! =)

Going to make myself some buns for lunch. Hopefully I'll get a similar results as Silvia's cooking. She's getting better by the day. ;)

A little snippet from Today's HomeWord 2/1/10

In 1958 Mr. Kimbell, a Sunday school teacher, prayed with one of his students (a shoe salesman) to become a Christian. The salesman, Dwight L. Moody, became a great evangelist. In 1879, Moody was sharing the good news of Jesus and a young man, F.B. Meyer, met Christ; this young man became zealous for preaching the "good news." While preaching on an American college campus, F.B.Meyer brought a student, J. Wilbur Chapman, to Christ. Chapman later employed an ex-baseball player, Billy Sunday, to do evangelistic work.

Billy Sunday became one of the greatest Christian preachers and evangelist in the early 1900s. Once after Billy Sunday preached in Charlotte, a group of local business-men were so enthusiastic, they decided to bring another man, Mordecai Hamm, to preach. In that revival meeting a young man, Billy Graham, yielded his life to Christ. Billy Graham has since preached to more people in person than any person in the world. And so, the story goes on and on.

It's so amazing how they traced it as far back as possible. So indeed what we do now, no matter how small it is, might have a mighty impact in the future.

Went to visit Acts church with Carrie the other day. Very homey-kinda-feeling. The preaching was just awesome, I'm pretty hard to please, and I had to get a MTG (Message To Go). I thought their wall of influence was impressive. Inspired from the Selangor state map. :)

Attributes finally selling some Max Lucado books. 2 of my favourite authors on the display shelf. =)

Tonight we're going to play board games. Finally!

Wonderful match last night. 1 of my most anticipated fixture as Arsenal play much better football than Chelsea and Liverpool. But it was meant to be "Glory, Glory Man United!"

1-0. Amazing run by Nani.

2-0. Rooney scores another from a counter attack 4 minutes later! =)

3-0. I missed this goal as I was watching the final set between Federer and Murray.

Just a channel away. A losing Scot. Tearful speech. But he's just 22 years old. Time's on his side.

1st grand slam win as a dad. Totally blew the opponent away. Simply breath-taking.

I am totally 'for' the new iPad. Too bad we Malaysians have got to wait a few more weeks. :(

What a start to my long weekend! I had a golden opportunity to take a photo with the world's most famous trophy. Th FIFA World Cup trophy! Was held at the MidValley Convention Center. Lots of other activities to do too.

The 'free' ticket for entry. We went early. Need not ticket. Reckon they needed the crowd.

Penalty kick.

Getting my face painted. England!

Me trying to fly.

Watching a 3D clip. Amazing!

Loads of free coke!

Managed to watch 2 very contrasting movies recently. Universal Soldier. *yawn. But there's a local production that really caught us all by surprise. Simply entertaining. Go watch Tiger Woohoo! Truly Malaysian.

Some bits and pieces from my life. Ashley doing writing up a report about Mozart. And did you know that they now have children as young as 7 years old as council members of the school. They decide on free time or other changes to the school! ;)

Ceaser confused. Don't know which sticker to choose from - Hello Kitty, Winnie the Pooh, girls, or Mickey Mouse!

Tasty food. Silvia learnt it from watching Rachel Ray. The other is a new for me. Very tasty!

Time to a new pair of jeans. Jusco having sale! :)

I've just got to share this amazing short film. It's 16 minutes long, but due to our wonderful internet connection, might take much longer. It's worth the wait. Smile! =)

Been singing lots of Chinese New Year songs at school. Not really fond of chinese music. For me, Chinese New Year is all about eating! ;)

To the tune of 'Gong Xi Gong Xi'

In the streets of China Town

Just like all the years before

You will hear on New Year's day

Cheerful Gong Xi Gong Xi

Gong Xi Gong Xi Gong Xi Ni Ya

Gong Xi Gong Xi Gong Xi Ni

Smile at everyone you see

Everyone is family

On this day of love and cheer

Sing out Gong Xi Gong Xi

Jonathan's mom gave me a lovely homemade banana cake filled with chocolate chips inside. Yummylicious! As you can see I couldn't wait till I got home, was eating while I was driving.

Farmville's slow. Fishville is turning out alright, prefer underwater world. Thank God Silvia wants to get her diving license because the sharks in Malaysian waters quite small. ;p

Menu from my favourite hangout place across the road - Maideen. Spot the mistake!

My inconsiderate neighbour. Over-parked!

Finally going to watch my free movie of the month by Spotlite - Universal Soldier: Regeneration. Heard it's something like Terminator. Hopefully I won't be disappointed tomorrow.

Going to eat dinner. At 9pm. Prawns, oat, long beans, oat, 'meat-roll', oat. By the way, finally bought egg rolls! The nice ones, Hong Kong-style. Happy Chinese New Year!
