Mission Trip

I dreamt of myself going to outskirts with a bunch of my church mates. I supposed it could be mission trip. We were in a foreign place and my room mates decided to choose a different hotel than others.

We took the taxi to the city area. Weird that it was my pal that drove the taxi. Taxi meter was about $2+ when we were at the city centre. It was a left-hand drive road. There were a lot of great buildings, including statue of liberty. We parked outself in an old chinese-style hotel with a chinese name which I dont' remember (something with Jiu). The furniture was old and I tried taking the picture of the whole room. There were 4 beds. There were a lot of other rooms that were connected to one another. On the first night, I didn't sleep well and woke up at 4am+ and the sun was shining brightly at the window. I saw camels at the window and quickly took some shots of it. The scenery was magnificient. Never have I seen such scenery before.

Pastor and the other missionary came to our place; ready to go to the other hotel to meet with another group. We passed by to a high-class restaurant (supposedly to use the lift to the other area). There was nice live jazzy music (singers). We sat down on a long table having nice english tea and desserts.

On the next morning, there was a different scene at the window. The road was busy with vehicles. The camels were missing! It's just so weird. Then, we had devotional to read and were rushing to the meet up with them at the other hotels.

Not too long. The dream died.

What's the Difference between 'Net' and "Nett"

Since it's part of my group's job to publish daily billings report to the management, our Director (from US) pinpointed that we should fix the spelling of 'nett billings' to 'net billings'. My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

An Encounter with Gelatissimo

It was an eventful Saturday afternoon. I had an 'appointment' with Gelatissimo , Gurney Plaza, Penang. I have always wished to try gelatos there (since Lecka Lecka has gone for good) and it's the ONLY store serving gelatos in Penang (I think). There you go.. I'm going to blog on my 'encounter' with Gelatissimo. First and foremost, consumers need to be educated the difference between ice-cream (Haagen dazs, Baskin Robbins, Walls etc) and Gelatos. Gelatos is italian frozen ice dessert and the method of making it is different from ice cream . Basically, gelatos has less cream than ice cream and it has higher density (the molecules are nearer as compared with ice cream). Most importantly, I think the fat content is less as it has more original food as compared with ice cream (usually with articificial coloring and flavours). The friendly staff posing for camera. The girl in spectacles would always asked me if I would like to try their flavours. To be honest, I trie...
