eggy egg. church.

Woot. church was quite happening today. well ok not really but i got alot to blog.

Well, i entered church with some sort of a cold. Then when i went choirloft and sit.. wa damn cold then i was sitting with clara . Then i changed places with her so i was further away from the aircon.. then STILL damn cold. my nose was killing me la. keep sniffing and stuff.

so after a while buay dahan already, i left the place. Then i went down to main worship hall ... WA LAO EH!! FREEZER AH!!

So cannot la. i think i will get a fever by the end of service if i stayed. So i went to staircase there stone awhile. then keep changing places. was at the hut , stone awhile. then i saw aunty geraldine run from the old buildling to the new building. i think she was checking on aiko.
THEN YEA HOR! GOT CRECHE!

So bingo i went to play with the kiddies. or rather.

aiko!
















hahaha damn cute la she. she got this super mischevious grin that she occasionally does. but dunno how to get her to do. haha. initially she keep saying 'nnnnnOO!' to me. haha damn cute still! but after awhile friendly le. ok not really, but at least stop saying noo to me.


oh oh i tell you a secret. (the following part is fictional)

.
.
.
aiko has a boyfriend!!

.
.
















alan: or hor aiko... so young got boyfriend already.. how can?!!

.
.
.

















aiko: hehe! don't tell my mommy can le!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


haha ok. thennn. oh yea during lunch time daniel perform magic trick.















haha cool right. and no, the can isn't leaning on the cup. and even if it was, i don't think it's easy also. It is just balancing like that. haha. you go try la. must vary the amount of water in the can.




alright then after that, it was just basketball for 3 hours. quite sucky i wasn't shooting well.
Oh but i won 3point shootout =) against gabs and johnson (tianen's friend who's quite zhun at 3pt in game). First to reach 3, i won the 2nd round. =) first round the johnson IMBA he shot 3 in a row.
i'm damn shacked now la!
2 days straight of basketball.

Oh yea in case some of you don't know, yesterday was the inter church basketball competition and i got two guys, alwyn and kokting from my school to come down and play for us. They were damn good la! i think without them we wouldn't even win 2 matches.
Then we actually reached finals!! but kena thrashed then by tianen's friend team a.k.a bethesda serangoon.

damn shack.


oh yea i was just thinking about - eggs. Did you realise that they're super useful and good! Just for the function of eating, there are so many types already - half boiled, boiled egg, scrambled eggs, fried egg, omelette!
and if you branch off even more, there's ludan, (the brownish egg that mixed rice stalls have) cha ye dan (egg boiled in tea or something), sian dan (salted duck egg i think), pigeon's egg (my sec sch yong tau foo stall have)

So many! I think my favourite is omelette. followed by scrambled eggs, then followed by boiled egg, then fried egg, then half boiled.

ok you know scrambled eggs actually look quite disgusting. haha. I think if you add brown dye it'll SERIOUSLY look like.. erm. shit. hahaha. i've been trying to find a picture of scrambled eggs. so heck i'm posting this one since got other nice food next to it.






YUMMY!









then besides eating, got so many other uses also. can do magic trick! you know the one where they put salt underneath a table cloth to form a mini-mount then balance the egg on it then they say the egg is standing.

then can do physics experiment. spin the boiled egg and spin the normal egg, then because of some physics law one will spin longer.

then can use for decorative purposes! easter eggs are nice!







Nice man! All hand painted leh!









It also created some English phrases which have totally no link to eggs. 'i will egg you on'.
egg- –verb (used with object) to incite or urge; encourage (usually fol. by on).

It also led to the makings of some idioms:
9.egg on one's face, Informal. humiliation or embarrassment resulting from having said or done something foolish or unwise: They were afraid to back the losing candidate and wind up with egg on their faces.
10.lay an egg, Informal. to fail wretchedly, esp. to be unsuccessful in front of an audience: He laid an egg as the romantic hero.
11.put all one's eggs in one basket, to venture all of something that one possesses in a single enterprise.
12.walk on eggs, to walk or act very cautiously.



wow! so many uses for eggs! so i hope i've convinced you that the egg is one of the best creations god has made besides Man and dota, and of course dont forget one last function of the egg: to puzzle silly scientists/philosophers who dont have anything better to do but wonder and theorotize at the question 'which came first, the chicken or the egg?'

^_^ cheers. good night.
