Misappropriating church funds

Five senior members of City Harvest Church (one of Singapore's largest and most popular churches) were charged in court yesterday for misappropriating church funds, involving over S$50 million in total. The church had began to prosper on donations from members who were encouraged to set aside a tenth of their income to the church every month. Bryan and I had always been chatting about this few years ago, now it came true. The church founder's wife and her son are staying in a multi-million 29,000 sq ft estate in Hollywood Hills, with a swimming pool and space for 11 cars, with famous neighbors in area like Nicky Hilton, Amercia Ferrera, and Leona Lewis. No comment how she got her money from. But 1 comment, please help to donate, as much as you can ok? The more you give, the more you (or maybe she) receive. Save the whatever!!!.

National Road Cycling Championships 2012

I was at the National Road Cycling Championships 2012 in Singapore yesterday (24 June 2012). People from all around the world were competing against one another for the championships. I really love to see many cool cyclists and bikes at the event. There were quite some ladies too, surprisingly fast despite the hot weather.

Grandma passed away

My paternal grandma passed away on 1st June 2012. RIP grandma.

Grandma (age 87) is a christian for more than 50 years, and she told me at the hospital few days ago that her happiest moments in her life were the times where she sang at the church. She said people were questioning whether she was a singer when she was young, probably because she sang loudly and she enjoyed herself so much. She reminded the family that they must remember to bring her bible along at her wake/funeral. The bible is really old and moldy, probably more than 30-40 or more years old. =)

I am quite disappointed tat Sis didn't attend the wake/funeral at all. Lot of excuses, foreign friends came to Singapore, husband's brother is getting married (not auspicious), etc etc. There are more excuses than these but i don't wanna talk abt it for goodness sake. Hmmm... i don't know how come people can be quite heartless at times, or maybe I am too stubborn?

Grandma is a very nice and kind person. At the hospital few days ago, she apologized to us tat she couldn't serve us drinks as she couldn't move, told us not to come and visit her if we were busy, etc. She said she didn't blame the doctor who operated her eyes 2 years ago. It was a failure and she became totally blind from then. She said the doctor was very young and it failed because the cuts were too deep which damaged her vein(s) somehow. She said she will be able to see soon (after death I guess tats wat she meant).

Grandma, take care of yourself in heaven.
