Psyche

Forces of Nature

Last night, the fighting fish were as per normal. They were swimming in the water. Yesterday, the water was so dirty. Richard changed their water. This morning, Richard discovered 'my fish' dead. And this morning, I had a dream of myself in the sea. I was on a big pink ship....

On the early morning of 27 November 2010, about 7am, we heard splashing sound from 'my fish'. I just heard a splashing sound, but did not know which fish it was coming from. This was the first time I heard such splashing sound from the fighting fish since we bought them back on 30 October 2010, the day we went to Woodlands Waterfront. It was quite a loud splashing sound -- as though the fish had jumped out of the water....

Just two days ago, I dreamed of fish and Lee Kuan Yew. Luckily I had a record of it, otherwise, I would not be able to remember dates. This fish is bought at Marsiling Estate....

April Fools' Day
Last night, I was reading The Catholic News and I saw something of significance. It was under "In Memoriam", In memory of a couple: 24th Anniversary and 2nd Anniversary of Christopher Yeo Hock Gum (departed 1.4.1986) and Christina Tok Kim Eng (departed 29 Nov 2008) Both were Married in 1943...

There were two fishes at first, but now left one fish.....

It is raining now.

This Saturday we went for the First Sunday of Advent, a brand new church year...

Jesus said to his disciples: Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

The Day and Hour Unknown

“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.
“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

Kampong School

I saw a school of 4 storey high. The first floor consists of gym room where students were playing. The school children were dressed in white. Some other children were dressed in multiple-coloured suits (of horizontal lines). There were so many children in the school, all over the corridors of the classrooms. I saw children climbing at the corridor parapet wall, both internal and externally! It was such a spectacular and special sight. I cannot help but quickly take a picture of it using my Casio camera. I looked at the screen. Only the students in white were seen. I could not see the 'colourful' students! I looked up again. There were 'colourful students' still, and they were among the 'white students'. They were 'spirits'! My eyes captured the sight of spirits or another words, ghosts. They looked just like any other children and the only difference is the clothes they wore. This time, I took some more photographs, and they appeared in my camera! After that, it was so hard to differentiate who are the people and who are the ghosts....

At the fence, I saw two boys, TWINS. They have some handicap (the eyes cannot see properly). They looked so much like Kelvin Tan or Chen WeiLian. At the sight of the two boys, in my dream, I was 'a witness', and I did not get to see myself. I was 'brought to this place' and saw this scene, and even in the dream, I was saying to myself, "I had dreamed of these two boys in my dream!" The two boys were holding on to the fence and they were talking to me. I had forgotten what they said to me. Other people were present. The school was so busy. I did not get to enter the school, but stood at the fence. Eunice was with me.

Later, I was at the road, the olden days kampong 'reddish-orange' clay road. I saw a blue truck. A very dark and tanned long-hair ancient celebrity drove the car. This celebrity had a three characters Chinese name which I had forgotten now. He was olden days celebrity and in the dream I even exclaimed,"Wow, now he looked like this!" Connie was with me... She was waiting with me on the road, we were going home together. Because of her, I got to take a lift from this guy. She happened to know this chap.

The next part of the dream was a little 'diversion'. I saw groups of women, those 'traditional Indonesian Women' dressed in Malay Sari or something like that, gathered together, holding their upper garments, folded them in such a way that they became a holding vessels (like those women gathering tea leaves). These were the women who are training the 'village women'. In this modern estate, such traditional village work, seems to be a comeback for people to earn extra bucks. I stood beside the blue truck, witnessing all this amazing sight.

The Second Coming

Take and Eat This is My Body


Father of the Nation
It was Lee Kuan Yew, old but still sober, talking steadily and calmly. He wore blue and came to the TV screen, which I watched at the parade. It was a live show. He was announcing some competition results, which was so unexpected and too sudden. Thereafter, all the backstage staff had to change all plans. Everyone was so surprise and 手忙脚乱 (extremely busy). As for me, I was at the backstage and I had asked for a cup of water. One of the backstage staff gave me a cup of water. It was my favourite tiger glass, filled with 'spotted' water. The water was obviously not clear. It was only half-filled. In the water, I can see particles -- dots. Looking through the water, I can see a fish, a small baby fish in the water! How can they possibly gave me such water! I asked for replacement...

What The Fish
Lee Kuan Yew was sitting at a desk behind. He saw it and asked me to give the glass of water to him so that he could comment about it. Next, I started taking photographs. Outside the glass, I saw 'big fish' (tropical fish), especially the commonly called 'tiger fish' (one of the tropical fish with black and white strips, orange fins). I wanted to take a nice photograph of the fish which was found in the drinking water before I handed over everything to him.

Teachers Training
After I had finished taking photographs, I went behind. There were two classrooms. I stood at the first classroom. A long-haired female Chinese teacher was teaching the class. Her Chinese pronunciation was not accurate, but she was speaking English to the class (occasional Chinese words from her). Someone came standing beside me now. She looked like LP. She was teaching at QiHua Primary School some years back, but don't know what she is doing now. We chatted about Names, specifically about naming babies I supposed. She seemed to tell me about the ways to name a baby. We had found a common way.

66,68...The Revolution
Watching very interestedly at the teacher in the classroom, learning some skills from her since I do not have a chance, I learned that there were 6 new teachers -- 2 couples and 2 ladies. However, later I was told that I was wrong. There were 2 new male teachers! How come I was not informed of any male teachers? And it was so weird, it do not add up to 6 but it was 8 (in this case)....

Facts and History
Singapore celebrated its first National Day in 1966, one year after Singapore's independence from Malaysia on 9 August 1965. The first National Day Parade started in the morning at 9:00 A.M. People came as early as 7:00 A.M. in order to get good vantage points. Singapore's first President, Mr Yusof bin Ishak and Singapore's first Prime Minister, Mr Lee Kuan Yew, were seated with members of the government at the grandstand on the steps of City Hall. When the parade began, 6 military contingents (including the Singapore Infantry Regiment, SPDF and the Republic of Singapore Police), a mobile column from the SIR, and various schools and civil contingents marched past City Hall and then into the city streets. Of course, 3 military bands accompanied the parade inspection and later the march past with military music. The Singapore Fire Brigade also took part in this first parade with its firetrucks included in the mobile column.

The 1968 parade was the first parade to be held in the rain. Some participants and spectators in this parade discussed this issue after the National Day Rally Speech in 2005. It was not going be until 1975, 1977, 1980 and 2008 that National Day Parades were to be held in wet weather. It was also in that year's parade that parade presentations in the Padang itself (aside from the civil march past and on the street presentations) by various groups debuted, ending with the Chinese mass lion and dragon dances.


Animal Rescue Fisher-Price Toy Car

Toy Story
Please read the above link, Toy Story. This is really 'spooky', 'Haunted House'...Watched The Detective last night. On the night (early morning) of 27 November 2010, strange sound was heard....Richard heard it too. It was about 4am.....dogs barking sound was first, and next MELODY... a tune which we NEVER HEARD before, coming from the toy as shown above (Animal Rescue Fisher-Price Toy Car), which was bought on 22 November 2010 at Kiddy Palace... It was a melody consisting of dogs barking, clapping hands/applause...CELEBRATIONS!!!! It was a TOTAL OF THREE APPLAUSE in continuation (3 Melody in total) and after which the music STOP TOTALLY (4.15am). After that, I heard a footstep sound on the blue mat which is in the room.... It was the 'invisible man' again.....

(to be continued)

Pathfinder

National Anthem was sang. However, the lyrics was changed. Everyone assembled, standing straight, except for me, who is 'running'. My legs were numbed. I fell down. Someone came to help me. It was a guy. He helped me to the group, adults standing in the 'class'... I was looking for my family.

In a classroom, I discovered that I was being 'used'. I did not know that, but discovered it only later. It was the Ee family... Someone had spoken to me. The last time I saw him, he was very skinny. The first time I saw him, he was looking perfect and fit, a fair guy. His name? Was it Kenny or some other name? Forgotten about name, but only know his look. Anyway, in this classroom, a dark lady, looking like Malay, brought along a male kid. The Malay women gave instruction to the male child. They were supposed to put gave drugs to us (force) -- not sparing any kids. My turn came. They starved drugs into my ears and mouth. I tried not to eat it. Later, I walked out to spit it out... fearing if the camera got caught me a not...

In another classroom, Richard, I and another person which I had forgotten, were sitting round a squarish table this time. The 'real session' began. Richard suddenly disappeared. He vanished into the wall! His clothes, a piece of 'grey rag' was seen at one edge of the wall. I called out to him. It was no use. It was like an 'abduction' or 'kidnapped', in exchange for something. I had to help out this family to find certain information about people. There are several other tables. All having the same function.

I saw words, yellowish glowing words appearing on the top right-hand side of the front wall, just in front of me. It was rows of words written in the traditional words and in real Chinese manner, from up to down (vertically). Three characters were written on the wall. It is the name of a person. Following this, on the left was written the date. It must be the date of birth of this person. On the further left were more words, but I had no chance to see these words. Before I can 'study' more, my eyes were 'in a white mess' (the real state-- seeing white 'flowers'; and I knew I was dreaming....so real....) I do not know how to read the three words, but I can still remember how to write the first two. The date of birth was written in Chinese too, and it was the third month....

Coincidentally, Cha Mo Ren was checking on somebody too... and the person they were looking for has the date of birth third month and day 15... This person 僵旦X which I dreamed of was born on the third month also.

The next part of the dream was two old women -- Richard's grandmother and his great grandmother. I had never seen their great grandmother. However, in this dream, I saw 2 white-haired women, sitting in the house, one in front of the other, both sitting in a manner that the face is facing in front, but not facing each other. Richard had brought me to this house. I asked him for the identity of this woman, which I do not get to see both the faces. In this house, many people were talking. The father was present. He talked to me on the bed. He was asking if we wanted to join them for dinner.

We went for dinner. We walked to City Hall through a shortcut, which is surprisingly fast (through Tanjong Pagar). There were some kind of show/procession going on. It was some kind of 'god' thing. Richard and I were going back. We wanted to try another way, but it seemed so far. We walked over a piece of big banner which was hang at this part of City Hall. This "Chinese Banner", white in colour with prints of drawings and words on it, which I had no idea what religion or thing it is at all. Since walking back from here is very long way, we decided to go back from where we came from in the beginning.

Now, we were at the swimming pool. My mother was in one of the toilet. I was searching for the ladies. Why didn't I join my mother when I found her, but still looking for the toilet? Did my mother enter the male toilet? I asked someone beside me. Was it my sister? She told me that my mother's toilet was for the female... who had brought her there? She said Peter...

The toilets were so big and really looked like those swimming pools toilet -- with lockers in them. These toilets were painted peach colour and so clean.

Fish Appreciation
For a moment I seemed to have forgotten what I had dreamed earlier on in the morning. I just remembered a 'coloured fish' that appeared on the 'second floor' of a 'factory' when I went into a toilet that was enclosed by grey cloth. I was searching for toilet and ran into one, among the many others. In this toilet, enclosed with a grey cloth, I looked out in front of me. To my surprise, I saw a white fish, but coloured with yellowish and reddish coloured on its shiny surface. The fish was flipping when I spotted it -- showing that it was alive. "How did the fish get here?" This was what came to my mind. There were steps (stairs) just in front of the fish and below this floor is the 'factory'. Someone else were with me, but I had forgotten who they were.

Chinese Temple
This is the only obvious image I can remember and really stay with me since this morning. As I tried to recall and finally gave up, I suddenly remember more. It was a dream of HDB TEMPLE I had -- a message trying to tell me about something that is 'not true' or 'should not be'... I saw a 3 room flat living room. In the living room was placed with ALTARS... or an Altar, placed with offerings or rather, incense. Women were 'praying'. I saw Pan LingLing standing outside this flat/house of temple. I wonder if she is in her right mind. Someone had told me that she was spotted and she was not in her 'normal self' (something like that) earlier on. Next, I saw her through the window. She was wearing a orange-pink T-shirt, with her hair let down on her shoulder. She was talking through the windows. Where am I? From what I had seen, I was inside this HDB temple! But of course, I did not see myself. I did not go to this house also, but this is what I SEE in the dream -- and the message I got.

Christ The King
For two weeks we did not go to church...today the church will be celebrating the Solemnity of Christ The King... If everything is running well, we would be in the church at 11am. But since I was not feeling well, we stayed at home. At 11.36pm, I was in the toilet. I heard the children and Richard talking. Later I realized that someone had rang the bell. Again, nobody was seen. Richard heard the lift door opened and closed... He suspects it was Hong Lu... This is really a mystery....

Loyalty vs Compassion
Last night, I watched this movie on Channel 8 and it showed some Catholic Rites in this show. It is a show about the Chinese "god" (the so-called Guan Er Ye by the HK) and the English God (Jesus)... an interesting show... which involves deep reflections....

KING of the kings
Enough of the side track, back to HDB flat Temples. I was personally 'led' to Clementi HDB temple and also Bukit Timah Terrace Temple! If you read my blogs, I am not a person who know fully about my religion nor the rest of the religion in Singapore. But, I am just so curious to find out about the Truth and the importance of being a disciple of Christ or to be nonchalant about it. To been through all this is an experience. People can have all sort of sayings and you would not know whether they are the truth. But based on your own experience, you can never forget what you had been through. Despite what the mediums and the 'translator' or 'adviser' had said, I just took everything with a pinch of salt, because I had learned about some Catholics teachings and what Jesus had taught...

Temple Creation
Legal or Illegal is not for me to say. But I check the internet for such topic or discussion about HDB Temple. I found two interesting reports about this.



STOMPer Vicky says her parents-in-law's neighbour has set up a temple in their flat, and is worried about the safety implications of all the burning involved. She says:"My parents-in-law's neighbour in Marine Parade runs a temple in their three-room HDB home. "Every Saturday, stools are lined up in the four-unit corridor awaiting customers to the temple. "We have to put up with smoke and ashes from joss stick and joss paper burning. "When we complained to the Town Council and NEA about fire hazard, we were told that since 'proper receptacles are provided for the burning of joss papers' along the corridor, no action would be taken, except to 'advise the occupier to show consideration to others around them when they burnt joss papers'. "Does HDB allow a temple to be set up at home? "Is it safe for open fire burning along corridors, especially when flags are hung so close by "Must we wait for accidents to occur before the auhorities take action?"



This HDB flat at Jalan Tenteram is being used for unauthorised temple activities, says STOMPer complainthero, who urges for legal actions to be taken against the tenant of the flat. This is not a new problem and needs to be addressed as it creates noise pollution for the neighbours. The offerings left lying around also attract pests and obstruct the pathway. In an email, STOMPer complainthero says:“Here are pictures of the abuse of an HDB rental flat as a makeshift temple/shrine. “The so-called medium (tangki) creates noise pollution during rituals like hitting the gong. “As you can see in some of the photos, the offerings, which consist of food and drinks, are left lying around. “This could attract pests like cockroaches, lizards, and pigeons. “Such cases have persisted for years and it seems that HDB does nothing about them. “Imagine if other religious groups start their own makeshift places of worship. “These makeshift temples prevent cleaners from performing their cleaning duties by blocking the pathway with the altar and offerings.”

The Legend

沈文程&張瀛仁-舊情也綿綿-KTV


Destiny
A dream of Pokemon and Lion... It is about concert tickets. Lion had brought the tickets. I did not intend to go with him, but don't know how to reject him. Perhaps he sensed it. He keep reminding and stressing on the date. I had forgotten the date, but it seems like Saturday. Next, Pokemon came with as well. He wanted to go to the concert with us as well -- me and the children... We were so busy, forgotten what is it really about, but it was a shopping complex...

Marina Square
Lots of steps on the stairs, just like those on Marina Shopping Mall... I looked up and saw one shop on the side of the stairs. I walked up to the shop. The next thing that I can remember is shopping for some stuff. A woman was tending to the shop, a woman whom I seemed to have known, but she was my mother's hairdresser at Boon Lay... she told me not to tell anyone about her....

Decision
While shopping, I was looking at my watch. The concert is starting at a time which I had forgotten. But in the dream, I told Pokemon that if I had missed the concert, I can still go again on another day -- I don't want to miss the chance of uniting with my niece and children. I want my children and niece to attend the concert too. Lim Chan was with me. It was moments of waiting for her...

The Face Business
Next, I found myself standing on a ground, looking up, I saw two houses or rather 2 walls. On the far most right, a door with a plaque of FISH, so big that it occupied almost the height of the wall. It is a golden and coloured plaque of the Luo Han Fish (花罗汉鱼 - Hua Luo Han Fish). The next house, just next to this one, in front of this house, contains another picture on the wall. There seemed to be papers pasted on the walls. On the third most house, on the left of me, a man standing at the door. He was talking to me since he saw me looking at the plaque. He said,"that one is not the nicest.." He is talking out of jealousy I thought. He said that his house has even better Luo Han Fish, more beautiful than that. The one with the plaque is a sign that the owner had won the contest. The walls of the house looked like those of Marsiling shops... In this part of the dream, I saw a shop that looked like NTUC, and I saw the word "LEGEND" in the dream also.

Feng Shui
Chinese has various beliefs. They always wanted to look for fortune or wealth. They seek ways and means to get rich. Some would buy crystals, others even buy fish, believing that they would bring luck to them. Still, they are others who pray to the dead, go to the tomb and to temple even, to 'ask' for numbers (4-digits) -- so that they can strike lottery.



Trends
During the year 2003, keeping the Hua Luo Han, the fish shown above in the photograph, was a 'fashion trend'. People believe that Hua Luo Han bring fortune and blessing to Homes. How true is that? Richard as well as my neighbour kept the fish during those days. During those days, Richard spent hundreds of money that may amount to thousands, buying the aquariums and various breeds of the fish. Now there are no more Hua Luo Han at our home.

青龙 ( Green Dragon)

What I had dreamed on 6 September 2010 about Dragon Time Machine looked somehow like this picture above -- the circular one above. The one at the bottom was very equivalent to what I had seen in the clouds on 11 August 2010.

This is just how miraculous it is -- the people who appeared in my dreams. I did not think of them and I did not anticipate any of them. Neither do I know some of them at all. They are totally strangers who appeared in my dreams -- faces which I had never seen before.

Richard always said that I am too free and that's why I dream. My mother said that I dream what we thought of in the day. How many people can really know about Dreams? One day, during the year 2009, I think Isaac was not born yet. I dreamed of God. I had never seen the face of God before, nor even know what really is God when I was young. I wonder how people can pray to someone whom they do not even know or visualize. But God appeared. I was transcended, and yet everything seemed to be a nightmare which nobody seemed to believe...

No one is an island and we had come to share what we know. This picture above is taken from the website about Chinese Culture. I had dreamed about the Green Dragon this morning. I had absolutely no idea what is the green dragon. What I saw in the dream was just words, Chinese Characters as shown in this picture below:


The green words on the left is written green dragon, but these are the traditional Chinese characters, which is what I had seen in the dream. The simplified form is 青龙. These traditional "Green Dragon" words in Chinese were PAPER WORDS cut out nicely and pasted on cloth banners in the dream.

According to the website, it is said that the Green/blue dragon is one of the four spiritual creatures. Dragon is a symbol of power and monarch. Dragon symbolize the whole Chinese people. The ancient Chinese people thought the color of the east was green/blue according to the popular philosophy at that time. So they called the dragon representing the east “green/blue” dragon. Just yesterday I dreamed of a cyan (blue/green) wall at Admiralty Primary School -- with bats flying around!

Long long ago, ancient Chinese people sorted animals into four categories ( bird, beast, worm and fish ) according to their characters of flying, walking, moving , swimming , feather, plume , scale and their regions of living (sky, river, land ). Then they select one animal as representation of each category. This is the origin of the four spiritual creatures. With the development of the ancient astronomy, the four creatures were connected with star constellations and directions. About Yin dynasty, people thought that the configuration of star constellations in the east liked a dragon, south bird, west tiger and north the union of tortoise and snake. When it came to the Warring State , people added one color for each creature. From then on green/blue dragon( 青龙 ) ， white tiger ( 白虎 ) ， red bird ( 朱雀 ) and black tortoise/black union of tortoise and snake( 玄武 ) were frequently painted on the walls of the early Chinese and regarded as the four spiritual creatures of the celestial having the apotropaic function of warding off the evil spirits.


This is a photograph taken from the show Mrs P.I or 查某人, the latest Channel 8 Mediacorp 9pm show. It shows the kind banner that I had seen in the dream. In this photograph, you see a piece of blue blanket with plastic sheets of words pasted on it. In my dream, it is a much better quality one. It is carved out words (made from hard paper) pasted on the cloth instead of plastic printed in such 'mass production' manner.


This is another photograph to show the blanket banner which people often gave to the family of the deceased. In my time, I had seen such blanket also given to my great grandparents and my grandparents (at their wakes). But they were exactly what I had seen in my dream this morning, of better quality, carved out Chinese Characters pasted/stapled word or word on the blanket instead of printed on plastic sheet like the above.

In my dream, I was at Boon Lay, the part of Boon Lay (at the HDB Flats) just opposite of St Joseph's Home. I cannot remember the full details but it was a rush for time. At the spot, I was 'having no time left'. The next thing I can remember about this dream is an enclosed area consisting of vacant shops. Luckily there was a small not so obvious 'outlet' at one corner. The glasses of all these shops were pasted with KFC stickers. I dreamed of my sister, Mary, and my father was present as well. But standing with us was a woman whom we do not know at all. She was very serious and talked to us about my brothers, my two brothers. She was asking like: which of the two brothers are more 'unlucky' or 'lucky'..... She wanted to pass something to us, some talisman I supposed. It was a 'knot' (jie) she was referring to. It is something inevitable and had to occur.... this message I got... My answer and our answer after 'much discussion' was given to her, this woman with curly hair, a Chinese.........

Admiralty Primary School

A day ago, I dreamed of a giant cave man. The skin was very tanned! Long hands and long legs, he laid on the floor. Someone was examining him. It was reported that his fingers were full of germs, viruses...

This morning, I had a dream of APS. It was a 'dark' dream. There were no sunlight at all. It was not day time either. But the sky was dark and the surroundings and everything that I saw in the dream was dark. The school was busy at the time I went. Teachers were walking around the school compound, going in and out of doors. A female teacher came walking past me, face to face. I did not know her, but it showed the light intensity of the dream. It was so dark that even when she came face to face, it was not that clear, though I can see her face. At this point, Clara and I were going to the bookshop.

We proceed to the bookshop at a right hand corner of the school. I asked Clara if she had brought along her booklist and things like that. Her answer was no and we came to take a look. We entered the bookshop. It was a very very big shop like a departmental store. Upon entering, we had to turn left. I was searching for Clara. She had entered before me. I went to the first row, the pens section, but could not see her. Later on, I intended to walk out of the bookshop to look for her, but saw her. She came to find me instead.

Opposite the pens section is another aisle. On this side of the shop, furniture were placed here, selling beds especially. I found a small bed and it was lined with mattress. In the dream, the figure $293, the price of the bed was announced. I wanted to buy the bed for Isaac...

Surprisingly, in this dream, no books were seen. But later, I saw my sister, Mary coming with her family (or rather, Patrick and Stephanie I saw). But the main thing is Mary. She did not walk with us. I did not see her later. Then I told Clara that perhaps she just arrived and went to the front to start her shopping from there. Later, we met again at a junction. This time, she saw some red rubber bands and some hairs lying in a dish (for people to use). She took hairs. She wanted to tie her hair. Then she kept asking me to take the red rubber bands. I did not take. In the dream, I got long hair!

The school has two eating areas. I had gone to one eating place at the centre of the school. Later, I saw a bigger eating place, the canteen on the far end of the school, with yellow tables and stools. That was a bigger canteen with more people eating there. But over here, at the centre of the school, it was a 'white canteen' with white flourescent lamps and seems brighter. It is managed by one person. So you can see this is not the multi-stalls type of canteen here. There are several tables and chairs outside this main stall, but not as much as the other end of the canteen. I did not go over to the other side of the canteen.

Back to the special bookstore. Extending beyond the beds are still 'alleys'. This time, my mother was walking with me in the market place. Fresh fish lined the alleys. So many arrays of fish really -- big and small, all kinds of varieties. My mother was so excited to see some 'moving fish' (alive). She quickly walked forward and told me that I should bring home some crabs and fish later. She began picking fish for me.

It was such a nice market -- the kind of old traditional market. Bats were flying and the ceiling was so high. I do not want to miss the chance of taking such a nice place. I took out my camera. In the dream, it was exactly the same camera I am having -- same colour, same functions, everything the same. In the dream, I have difficulties in pressing the buttons of the camera. I had aimed and looked at the screen of the camera -- a cyan wall with a small rectangular window high up on the wall of the market. Bats were flying and there seemed to be dirts or cobwebs on the ceiling. Whether I zoomed or not, it was so hard to press the shutter.

My mother showed me the fish we were looking for -- the big white fish (don't know what it is called, but it is best cooked with pineapple, and it had an arch). This is a rare fish and it was surprisingly beautiful, white and big in the dream. My mother picked a fish and gave me to eat. I cannot believe that I actually ate raw fish! By the time I knew it, I had finished almost the whole fish and I dumped it away -- I saw a fish without head, with a little body left.

This market in the dream, even though it was APS, it was the old Bukit Timah Market that my mother and I had gone to during my childhood days. Of course, it was not the way it looked like (what I had seen in real life), but in the dream, it was this meaning....

Later in the school compound, it was some handful of people, man and woman, standing motionless (FREEZED) at the grass garden corner. Some palms or plants were there. These people stood freezed for some seconds. I wondered why they do that. And finally, Richard and I assumed that they did these to 'wake' themselves up. They are in charge of school security. In order to 'stay awake' and to 'delay' time, they had thought of such activities to amuse themselves. From afar, I could not see the 'black figure'. It was a man obviously. He was darker than the rest. As mentioned earlier about the light intensity, it is still very dark and no faces were seen as in this case, but just 'shadows' and some slight colours. Beside this 'black man' is a woman wearing red shirt.

After there FREEZE were over, they started moving. One of them came forward to me and asked us to go back to our group. I don't even know what is my group...

Chinese Names

I had forgotten what I had really dreamed of by now, but I must jot down what I had dreamed of this morning -- the main gist.

I saw a rites or procession along the road of Boon Lay Drive. It was some people dressed in pink, wearing pants (so must be men) and a red chair or those traditional Chinese (sedan) chair, decorated with patterns on the chair (artwork). Nobody was sitting on the chair... the chair was moving.... it is some kind of spiritism...

In this dream, I had seen SK, my neighbour. She was speaking in Hokkien, surprisingly. I had forgotten what were the exact words, but was saying in a 'sing-like' tone. She was reluctant to say at first, but still say... this is the first time I dreamed of her....

Spirits

Yesterday's dream was a sweet one. Today this dream was quite a scary one, involving spiritism. A few places were rather 'familar' as quite similar to what I had, but the environment was different. The most remarkable thing about this dream is the part where I was at the cupboard... this cupboard was very similar to my store room. I was standing there, putting my things there -- a black hi fi set on the right and a money purse on the left. Surprising thing happened as I put the money bag and the hi fi down on the shelves of the cupboard. I found that the money bag just disappeared!

Lucy was around the corner, at this place, which was like a open space, something like the vicinity of a lobby or NUS compound or some kind of resort. Behind me were drawers, which I am supposed to tidy up by a specified time (in just a few days, perhaps 2 or less than that) -- afterwhich, we would be leaving the place and going home.

I searched up and down, walked in and out to find the money purse, which contains a minimum of $80, not less than that. The purse was a orange one and rather small. I searched but just could not find it.

Later on, Peter and Lucy came. I had forgotten the details of the dream, but it was a picture frame Peter was trying to point at -- indicating that they already knew what I wanted to say. They told me to keep quiet because the spirits can hear the words... I did not look at the picture from the photo frame which they pointed. It was that of the Buddhist religion, something of the Thailand one I suspect....

Something serious happened. The Chinese spiritual medium obviously had 'taken' the money. But we had discovered it. Now, it was something like the spirit to 'return' to some places or something like that. He mentioned,"You want it to be like Sir Stamford Raffles?" or even some other statue... It is something relating to the spirit entering the statues.... it was a decision, a scary decision we had to make.

Eagles Flying In the Sky at Woodlands Waterfront


Meaning of Names
Yesterday I dreamt of Cebest. It was Cebest and Ricsson on the bus. Richard and I alighted the bus first, leaving these two and the rest of the family members, mainly Ricsson and Cebest on the bus. Later, I saw Ricsson and asked the whereabout of Cebest, which he had left him behind...

On Eagle's Wings
In this dream, I saw my parents too. In my mother's room, which was at a place, not their house, but a room of some sort of vacation places, I saw my mother hanged my father's shirt above the bed. It was a shirt given to him by my sister, Mary. It was a beautiful shirt, made of towel material. I tried the clothes and it was so comfortable. My mother said that if I like it, I can have it. But I did not take it because it belongs to my father and she said that usually father did not wear shirt, but he wore this shirt, and really like it.

This is the second time I dreamed of my sister, Mary, in these 'NEW LIFE" that I had...

This morning, I did not know what I had dreamed or perhaps no dream as yet when I had awoken suddenly to 'rescue' Isaac. But after that, I dreamed of a woman, a woman who was tending to a coffee shop or cafeteria, selling seafood. Her face was fair, very fair with some blemishes on her skin (freckles or 黑斑). I was eating Chicken wings at this cafeteria. There were several other people present at this place. As I was eating the fried brown chicken wings, I can taste its 'unfreshness' (not fresh at all). It was 臭鸡翅膀 (stale chicken wings). At first, I had a serving of chicken wings. But when I ordered another set of chicken wings, it was stale. I went to the stall. I saw a 'black woman' standing inside the stall, trying to tell her about her chicken wings also. I was not the only one.

I told this woman that she should not do business like that. She was unhappy. I asked if I can have a refund. Showing her my unfinished plate of 9 chicken wings (1 eaten -- the 'smelly' one) and some French Fries in the plate. But when I was about to ask the woman to go to the table to check it out, the cleaner had cleared my table. I saw the woman walked to the door, came out from their staff area, into the customer tables place. I quickly walked to her and told her that the cleaner had cleared everything on the table.

Back to her stall, when asked for her name, she was reluctant to give. Next, she gave a piece of paper, when I requested to have her contacts. It was a paper(flyer) with decoration of seafood, and it was obviously not hers, but belong to the owner of the cafeteria or coffee shop. On the paper, she pointed out her name and numbers, scribbled on a place on the paper. It was her name, something like 'Wam PhXX" This morning, I could remember so clearly her name, and it looked like those Vietnamese name, but now, I had forgotten the name, but 'wam' was quite sure. In the dream, I asked her about her country. I asked if she came from China. But she told me it was "连国“. In the dream, I wondered if it was Korea... and asked if she had meant Korea... but later on I was awoken by Isaac's cries again.

The Best is Yet To Be


Rainbow as The New and Everlasting Covenant of God

The New and Everlasting Covenant of God...
Besides eagle, I also witness the surprising appearance of the rainbow on this day that I went to Jurong Bird Park...

Shelter

This morning, I had a rather real dream, a dream of special 'vision' and 'magic'. As it was in the morning and as usual, some exact numbers I had forgotten. It was a dream of me carrying Isaac. It was some people I was with, my family members like my parents, Richard and my brother. Isaac and me walked first, walking down the stairs of a Lily-white painted block of HDB flat. Somehow, it was a wrong turn and suddenly I appeared in such a strange place of the flat. This was the first time I came to this flat. At first we were at a lower floor, but looking at the surrounding environment and going down the stairs, I came to realized that it was the top few levels I was at. Which floor am I at now? It was a lily-white painted HDB flat, but the sky and the surrounding looked dark or grey. Very scared, I dare not go upstairs (See if that was the last floor). I decided to walk down and down. But it was not stairs anymore. It was a special 'roof' -- the roof of the staircase! It was made of metal, and with rods. It was inclined downwards, since the stairs are leading downwards.

I was carrying Isaac and it was the metallic 'roof' of the downward staircase. There are no railings. There is no turning back. I cannot cross to the block, unless I jumped (which is very risky). Suddenly a guy appeared and I asked him to help. This is a Chinese man, quite dark (tanned, but not extremely tanned), and I had never seen him before. He was telling me something, exact words I cannot remember, but what he meant was about Life and Death matters which are destined to be; and I had to do it myself. If I need help then there are certain conditions which I had forgotten what he had said. But in the dream, I did not asked for help then. I slided down the 'roof'...

It was my parents in the house. It seemed a low-floor house, but the location not determined. But it seemed to be Boon Lay. My father suddenly cannot walk. He wanted to go toilet. I was about to leave the house, but seeing that he needed help, I wanted to carry him to the toilet. Then he said,"Don't need, he can still walk/manage." But I still help me to the toilet.

In the same house, Isaac suddenly fell down. I had to walk out of the toilet and attend to him. The floor was dirty and I had to wash him. Just on Thursday, Isaac had fallen in the bathroom. Now, in the dream, this memories were with me. I hugged him tightly while washing him and bathing him in the toilet (in the dream)....

A long dream. The next part that I can remember was 'we' were going to the medium. I was not keen, but I tagged along. "We" came to a highway. It was the sideroad of the highway. Over there, it was a circular space where people can 'go in' (passed through). A TV actress, don't know her name, had done that. Before this, the guy had told me about such magic about walking through walls... -- before this part, I was sitting down on the floor with a medium that tell me about such 'magical power' by the Chinese nine emperor/九王爷...

Seeing my parents already went into the special circular 'tunnel', I was so scared that I was not able to pass through. Later, I saw just beside this circular 'tunnel' were some groups of people, middle-aged women. In front of them was a statue of a woman, the Guan Yin, and I saw 4 Chinese Characters below the statue... These people were taking queue number. They gave me a number 361. So I asked them something like, "Is their number 360?" Anyway that is not important. The important part is I went down the 'tunnel' with Richard. It was so hard to pass through the 'tunnel'. It was really like magic...

Before I want to continue this part, I want to mention about the HDB flat just now. I suddenly got 'special ability' -- my right eyes can SEE THROUGH WALLS, these images were red in colour. I see the walls with bricks and the images behind the walls... Both left and right eyes show different images...

Richard and I passed through the special tunnel. We came to a flat, the opened space (corridor) of the level, another white building. On the left were some tortoises, about four -- 2 VERY big tortoises with their special shells indicating they are land animals, and two smaller and different species of tortoises. The two big land tortoises were at the centre. A brown dog was fucking the tortoise! We were rushing for time. I told Richard to hurry, but he stood to watch the show. On the right, opposites of these tortoises were children playing -- girls and boys, active and cheerful children.

We walked straight, pass by these children. It was a house with people seeking medium and of course the medium. I did not get to see the medium, which in the dream I had forgotten as well!

I cannot remember the full details but my brother was thinking of buying insurance.... I also dreamed of the TV actor again....

It was another part of the dream, which I had forgotten where it should be (the sequence), but it was my school I went. It seemed to be in Jurong. I was soon to be late for class. But I saw in the hall some procession going on. I saw it was the Chinese 'Ritual', with special 'carriages' and rituals going on. It just started when I reached there. I decided to be late for class, since I do not want to miss this once in a lifetime opportunity.

In the class (upstairs), it was Miss Leong, our Maths Teacher 'on duty'. But I did not get to see her. She was 'inside the room' while the students were waiting for her...

It was a dream of running and walking up and down, seeking and finding. Richard's maternal grandmother is a Taoist. I dreamed of her son... Richard's uncle....

All Souls' Day

Tua Ya Pek (大爷伯) and Zee Ya Pek (大二爷伯) Tents at Woodlands

Yesterday was All Saints' Day and today is All Souls' Day. This morning, I had a weird dream and it involves many people -- Richard, my mother-in-law (Richard's mother) and my sister-in-law (Richard's sister), besides other people.

The very gist of the dream was a person who so much resemble my paternal grandmother. I was not sure whether it was her, but it had to be. She seemed to be dressed in yellow, but seems 'dirty' or 'flowery' yellow (the 'grandmother' type of cloth material). In this part of dream, it was a room, and I wanted to go into the room, but it was so cramped in there. Someone had asked me to hand a stack of photographs to the respective people. At the middle of the room is a big rectangular table with people seated on it (just like the way Jesus had his last supper with his disciples). One of the photograph which I had handed over belongs to my second brother, Johnny. Even Peter was there. I asked Johnny if he had extra photographs or some more of that photograph at home. If he had then I would like to keep his photograph. But anyway, I still gave him back his photograph -- he was wearing spectacle.

The Cupboard Sound...

Back to the door. The woman who so looked like my paternal grandmother was with a woman. I had forgotten who this woman was. This woman was going to change the clothes for her. The place was so cramp, but still, it should not be like that.... this woman was going to change my grandmother's clothes on top of the cupboard! I saw my grandmother, if she was my grandmother, she was standing on top of the cupboard -- A not so tall cupboard, those chest-level cupboard...

It was not a good dream, but a weird and quite 'scary' dream considering all these strange things... and even Mavis and my mother-in-law came in! It is just so strange to see her again (my grandmother) after so many years, since I last seen her at my house at Boon Lay. After that, the next occasion I saw her was at her funeral... she laid in the coffin. And then finally, I only got to see her, only photograph, a very small one, at her grave. What I have of her now was only photographs and memories..... and really dreams of her...

My mother had asked to offer Mass for the dead, and I had contributed too. Of all these people, it was my paternal grandmother, Maria again who appeared in my dream...and it left a deep imprint on my brain, even though I had almost forgotten the whole dream (since it is evening time already). But the way she stood on the cupboard was so strange, and this image just 'linger' on my brain...

Tuesday: Devotion To St Anthony

And just now, at about 4pm or so, Richard asked,"Is there a power failure?" The fan in our room had stopped mysteriously. Only Richard and Isaac were in the room at that time. I told him that I did not have any timer set for the fan...

Mysterious FAN STORY

This is not the first time that the fan had stopped. But on the last occasion, it was the fan in the living room that was stopped. This time, I told him that the living room fan was still on. Nobody in the living room had complained of power failure. He on back the fan in the room. It just started again. What could have happened? I was not in the room when such things happened and I cannot say anything more.

Halloween Night

On the night of 31 October 2010, I saw from the kitchen GLOWING ORANGE LIGHTS from afar the horizon, the place where the 'oracle' always happen to be. This was not the first time I had seen it, but on this night, which was soon going to be All Saints' Day, the light was Glowing So brightly. It was not fire, if there is fire, there would be smoke... this is really Enchanted Singapore... I seen the glowing light even in the morning, until it 'extinguished' in the early morning when the sun brightens up the sky. At first, the glowing light vanished and the sky turned MAGENTA or pinkish like those of the highlighter pen (the pink colour). It was really nice colour.

Divinity

Today is All Saints Day. Went to church for mass and came home. By the time I am jotting down what I had dreamed today, another day is almost past and later I am going to bed soon. Went to Woodgrove and had dinner at Uncle Louise Cafe 899 or something like that. Ate the Chi Cha there, and now I am experiencing very bad tummy ache that is draining me of energy.... feeling like want to vomit and also tummy ache... basically I had eaten the Volcano Beancurd and their lemon chicken... I am drinking Thailand 'pagoda powder' now to cure my tummy ache and the nauseous feeling.

I don't intend to jot these dream down as the whole day was so busy. But the dream scene was like keep reminding me to jot it down. So here I am to jot down what I had dreamed.

It was a dream about Boon Lay Shopping Centre which I was at, and my home. Opposite my home, I could see "Ah Nan" home. He opened his door and came out of the door, which I happened to see. The door is a 2 panel door, the type of olden days Chinese home, with paper pasted on them. The doors were considered very wide and big. But in the dream, Ah Nan was not friendly. He was standing at the door, as though lookout for something and after that closed the door, asking people not to look at them or something like that.

Another celebrity that I had dreamed was Priscelia Chan, 曾詩梅, (born 6 November 1978) married to Alan Tern (唐育书, born 31st March 1976), actor and also an entrepreneur who deals with spectacles, on 6 October 2007...

It was a rather long dream and one part of the dream was Priscelia and another girl was standing outside the window of a carriage-like room peeping me (couching down). Richard was in the carriage, sitting down on the chair. It was as though a hospital....

And there was a training school at Boon Lay Shopping Centre.... will not elaborate more on this. Just when I was dreaming this dream, Isaac made noise. I woke up to look at him, turning my back, I hit on someone..... so scary..... at about 5am, in fact before 5am -- only to realize that it was Ricsson! Don't know how he is so coincidentally 'come' at this timing.

The whole night, Clara could not sleep either. The next day, which is today, is her Science Exam... first time, I saw her kept waking up to go toilet.... and she told me she cannot sleep....
