Weekend in Kluang - Part 6

Jasmine’s mom cooked dinner for us, and no wonder Jasmine says her mom is the world’s best cook. I like the sweet and sour pork (which I later realized it’s chicken!), as well as the steamed fish. During dinner, we cracked a few jokes about Ching, especially the ones about her being Spade, a Taiwan soap drama character. Ching is very outgoing, and doesn’t take to offence the jokes that we made.

After dinner, I played jigsaw puzzle with Valerie. I find it very amazing that if you give Valerie a piece of the puzzle, she would look at it briefly, and place it to the correct location. Only on a few times would she trial and error. I wonder if it is by memory, by observation, or through some other methods that she does this so easily. Even for an adult like me, I have to make a mental effort to locate the location of the piece. A child’s mind always intrigues me, and I strongly believe that 人之初, 性本善, and with good upbringing, the benefits to society is limitless.

At 8.30pm, I had to leave to catch my bus home. Ching, Ying and Jasmine went to see me off. This is my impression of Ching Ching Ying Ying duo: Ching is a high-energy young lady, and somewhat the family clown. She is very gracious and doesn’t take to heart about the jokes (a trait which I believe will serve her very well when she grows up). Ying, her elder sister, is a very sweet young lady who is very loyal to friends and I believe would do anything to help a friend. On many occasions, she offered to let me drive her dad’s car, a trust which I believed is misplaced. (I am about as good with driving as I am with directions..). Jasmine, Ying and Ching are very close, and I can understand Jasmine’s decision to stay close with her family, versa working in Singapore.

On a parting note, I made the following observation: when I arrived, my seat was in the first row in the first compartment of the train; and when I left, my seat was in the last row in the coach. What a curious coincidence~
