Turn Off your Mobile Phone

Took this picture right before the start of the church service…
The warning in Chinese says:
Please turn off your handphone,
lest it disturb the worship! (note the exclamation mark)

Look above you

There’s always the sky…

A Fish with a Smile

This is from Jimmy Liao… if you don’t know who he is you probably don’t know Chinese… so I’ve translated the Chinese subtitles below…

I saw a fish, a fish that smiled at me

Day or night, whenever I passed by,
she’d always swim towards me, smiling at me;

Sunshine or rainy,
she’s always waiting for me,
waiting for my longing gaze.

I got to have this fish.

I brought home a fish, a fish that smiled at me.

When I talked to her, she would wag her tail, smiling at me;

I watched TV till late night, she would spit a few bubbles out of boredom, smiling at me;

At bath time, she lingers beside me, smiling at me;

She’s always smiling, I like this fish.

I have a fish that is loyal like a dog, 
affectionate like a cat, and passionate like a lover.

I kiss my fish lightly.

Good night…

I thought, I thought, my fish and I were asleep…

I saw a fish, a fish glowing in green,
floating in the room, my fish!

She was floating gracefully in mid air,
I ran after her franticly,
I’m afraid of losing my fish.

I followed a fish glowing in green,
wandered the midnight streets.

Has everyone in the city fallen asleep?
Are they sweet dreaming?

It’s been a long time since I looked up at the moon,
I’ve forgotten how to make a wish to the stars.

I recalled the familiar dancing steps when I was a teenager, I can’t help but danced a little.

It was a lot of fun to play hide and seek in the woods,
but where are my friends hiding now?

I saw a fish glowing in green,
floating slowly towards the ocean.

We leaped into the cool crystal clear ocean;

My fish and I swam happily in the ocean;

Back stroke, butterfly, frog, free styles….

Yah, even the doggy style…

I was like a fish, swimming freely in the big ocean.

Then I realised,
I’m also a little fish imprisoned in a large fish tank.

No matter how much I struggled,
I can’t swim out of this transparent border.

I saw a fish, a fish glowing in green, floated in the air.

She’s wagging her tail, still smiling.

Her smile suddenly made me feel sad.

I can’t have this fish!

This fish that is
as loyal as a dog,
as affectionate as a cat,
as passionate as a lover.

I’m sending this fish home.

Back to her real home.

She wagged her tail,
slipped into the borderless big blue ocean.

This time, I truly fell asleep.

I kissed my fish lightly.

I saw a fish, a common little fish trapped in my home.

KFC Fish Burger

Cost me RM6.25… just for one burger!

… oddly enough, KFC’s fish burger taste better than their chicken…

Maybe KFC stands for Kentucky Fish Company… :P

Disappointed that the dumplings didn’t taste as nice as they used to be… sigh!
