DR KOH KHO KING

18th November 2009 – Wednesday evening…

Just took some photos of Megumi today, my beloved child.

It was on Saturday…we have a great time.

I still prefer the traditional tang lung than the now battery powered type. But of course need to watch out for the candle / fire, cannot let children play by themselves and must watch out for the candles and matches.

Family photo…

Megumi loves carrying tang lung.

Mother and daughter…

Goodnight…

Yummy yummy = her child term for Ice-Cream…

A Christian Bookstore Ship – MV Doulos

Parked at Pasir Gudang port from 25th September 2009 till 06 October 2009 if I am not mistaken. We took the chance to visit there yesterday. I used to work as a volunteer onboard many years ago…miss the time there and it is good to see her sailing here again. (ship is always called “her” and not “he”…)

We make a visit there yesterday (Saturday – 3rd Oct 2009).

Hmm…time for me to keep fit…can see the stomach coming out… (or should I blame that shirt?!)

Foong’s sister is with us as well. In fact, it was her idea of visiting Doulos.

Entrance into the Bookstore onboard can see many children books at reasonable or rather low price! They use unit system. 100 unit = RM8.00. This is for them to convert to different currency when they sailed to different country.

Of course, Bible is being sold online as well.

Different religion people also visited there…

and various races too!

I saw some Singaporeans making their trip across the bridge to visit as well!

Volunteers from various countries and skin colours…

There are many different souvenirs sold there…

Megumi is busy onboard scouting around…

As usual, she is curious of my camera and lens…

and her mum also busy shopping for children books…

Coming down from the ship…way home…

Took an hour to drive back…quite jam, but of course is a nice and worthy trip.

Kinda like a gathering with my friends today…BBQ at my house.

Alvin, Janice, Fu Yong, Ammy, Lydia, Megumi and myself (Kho King).

New BBQ tray borrowed from Alvin. Simple and nice to use.

Some food as prepared by my wife. Jagung (corn) is very sweet, one of the best food among all. The front meal with white snow is sagu with coconut actually, very nice desert.

Sushi rice in tauhu skin. I love it!

Wife busy in the kitchen and I took her shot by surprised…

Bought low smoke coal (as according to the seller) at RM8.00 per pack of not sure how many kg. Definitely enough for the night lah…

Fire is ready…where is the food?!

Ok…on the way to the fire…

Man’s job for the fire / BBQ part (Fu Yong is at the back)..while lady setting up the table. Megumi was getting ready too…can you see the big cup on their baby chair already?!

Not a overly full dinner (for me lah…I drank a lot of O-cha (red tea)). I think we have a nice night…good to have gathering with friends from time to time.

My sister from UK bought this skirt for Megumi, very nice colour but size is quite big. Still can wear as Megumi is quite tall, and can wear again in future. Better than too small / can’t fit.

Thanks, Sis!

Bought some roses last weekend, only planted one…still have another 4 waiting. My wife loves roses.

Alvin visited me two days ago, so we have some time in the yard shooting some flowers, testing his new toy…Sigma OS HSM 18-250mm lens. Quite a nice lens! Very close focusing distance and fast focusing speed (with HSM for Nikon mount!).

Ok…here are my roses…

No matter how pretty those roses are, they still can’t compete to my precious…

Yesterday…or few hours ago we celebrate our mother in law’s birthday. This is the 2nd birthday celebrations in my new house…the first one is my mother, and the second one is my mother in law’s birthday.

I went to bought a cake after work…a happy surprise to them I hope. Though I knew they do not like to eat cake, but I think it still means a lot when blowing candle and cutting cake during birthday, as an official celebration. The night before we have actually already went out for celebration dinner, but no cake or a pandan chifon cake made by my wife, but no candle and not so official…hahaa…lots of excuses…

Anyhow…here’s some photos to share.

Megumi can’t wait…in fact she has been very curious and excited when I brought the cake home. Yeah, she is holding the chifon cake made by my wife.

Blowing candle moment…

Cutting cake moment…

Happy birthday mother in law! May God be with you, protect you, give you health and guide you always. In Jesus precious name I prayed. Amen.

Bought and brought back from Japan…

Megumi:”My castle…yeah!”

06 August 2009, we celebrate the night before.

Bought a cake, got many candles but the small cake can’t occupy all…so we put only 1 big one down.

May God saves my mum and be with all of us all the time. In Jesus name I prayed, amen.

I asked my sister to help me buy 3 clocks for my house…trusting her taste, and yes I am very pleased with the choices.

Living Room (on the wall next to the door bell)

Kitchen (very similar to the wall tiles of my kitchen, match the color and design.)

Master bedroom (no wall to hang, so put it on a triangle stand temporary).

All Seiko brand, and I have confidence in Seiko brand.

She loves to play in the grass ground…watering and finding inserts hidden in the grass…

I wonder what was on her mind…

The printing quality is perfect. Simple frame as I do not want the frame to overshadow the photo itself.

The photo was taken in Japan, during sakura viewing season.

On the right is my main door entrance. Top has 3 spotlights shinning to the photo. The wall in the direct end will have a shoe rack there later (already half built, will be completed this week…the designer and maker have delayed and delayed for me…).

Cost of printing and framing = RM170.00. Size 24R. Yes, it is HUGE!

Megumi is admitted to Ipoh Specialist today, due to continuous fever for 5 days.

I am very down today, worried about her and sad that I couldn’t do anything here. Can only pray to God that Megumi will be fine.

I am very tempted to drive to Ipoh to be with her and my wife…still struggling to go or not…

God, please protect Megumi, heal her, be with her. Please give patience and love and strength to Foong to take care of Megumi. In Jesus Christ name I pray, amen.

Update (25th July 2009):

Thank you very much to those who have shown concerns, Megumi is fine now and have released from the hospital. Thank God.

Next Saturday, 14th June 2009, is the 2 years old birthday of my Megumi.

Sadly, I can’t celebrate with her, as she is with her mother in Perak and I have lots of work this coming week and next week.

Went out to buy a present for my baby…

What’s inside? Haha…I will let Megumi open it first before revealing.

Here’s a message for Megumi, she might not be able to read or understand now, but I hope she will read this blog when she grows up.

May God protect her, guide her, lead her, save her. In Jesus Christ’s name I prayed, amen.

Today my dearest has reached safely to Malaysia from a 5 days holiday in Taiwan with her sisters. Seems like a good shopping trip for all of them, fulfilling the car with luggage.

Glad that she has a good holiday, releasing tension from daily work and life.

Love, King.
