Oh, my aching legs! Oh, my heels! Aching!
Aiyoh, it is National Day and AK is in pain?
I went walking with my mom in the neighbourhood this morning. We walked for more than 2 hours!
OK, excluding time taken to explore surroundings new to me, to have brunch and to do a bit of shopping, maybe, 1 hour 30 minutes.
Still, to out of shape AK, adoi! Sakit lah! It will probably be worse tomorrow.
Anyway, I remember a reader asking me to share photos of my daily life other than the food I eat, if possible. So, here are some photos I took this morning:
Anyone knows the name of this flower? Firecrackers? Don't look impressive but when in large numbers and from a distance, they look like fireworks. |
See what I mean? Pretty! |
Pretty bougainvillea flowers growing in planters above an expressway. I have never seen them in these colors before, I told my mom. My mom thinks I am a mountain tortoise now. |
Wah! Suspension bridge in Singapore! So cool! The last time I walked across one was in Canada almost 20 years ago! |
Aiyoh, I know. Another photo of the food I eat. LOL. Good wanton mee. About $3.40, after discount. |
Want to spend quality time with family? We don't have to spend a lot of money going overseas or visiting theme parks.
There is so much to see and do in our neighbourhoods. We just have to be more aware of our surroundings.
There is good and inexpensive food and great shopping too.
Money is just like any other resource. If we spend less of it, we will have more of it. If doing so makes us happier in the process, we have ourselves a bonus.
"Every man is rich or poor according to the proportion between his desires and his enjoyments." (Samuel Johnson)
