Okay, just kidding about going to Walnut Creek... I guess things didn't work out as they should. So the family slept in until lunch time where we went to the Asian Pearl for dim sum. Not bad for some items, but for others, not too great. I guess our previous experience left us with too high of an expectation.
We went to Target after to get survi...I mean, emergency kits. Or rather, we are building one just in case of a disaster like an earthquake, tsunami, or a viral outbreak that turns stressed out people into zombies. We got hand sanitizers, first aid kits, hand-cranking radio, which has a built-in flashlight and cell phone charger. How cool is that! Now we need butane canisters, bottled water and various small items. I thought this was cool, to build an emergency kit. Almost like camping! But the keyword is 'almost'. This isn't camping. It's real and I pray that we don't have to use it.
After Target, we went to visit Pastor Cheng's grave. If it wasn't for this pastor's help, my family won't be in America enjoying all its comforts. I won't be able to experience natural cold, cycling with tons of space, driving, paintball, and most importantly, Meeting Annie. In a way, it's only respectful to visit this pastor.
We drove to Ranch 99 to get groceries and not long after, we were home. Well, except for me. I had to head out to do stuff like picking up rent and getting materials to build a cross for this Friday. I have to say I was nervous about it. About whether it could be done with only the tools that I have at home, which is one blunt saw and lots of hammers. I started hacking away immediately, hoping to get something done tonight. Thankfully, I was able to cut the 2x4 into decent sizes and nailed the two pieces together. The unfortunate part was that I could only get one nail in because it was getting dark and I didn't want to make too much noise for the neighbors. The work will be finish. Just a matter of time.
After a simple jook dinner, it was worship practice. Simple set for this Sunday. Mostly meditative pieces.
