School potluck for Eid

This year, I prepared something different for my daughter’s potluck party.

For morning school, I made spaghetti with meatballs and marinara sauce. I packed them in little round containers.

For evening school, I cooked up chicken rendang.

My next project: Teacher’s Day gift.

My Experience with NFC TnG Cards

My usual way of reloading my TnG card is by visiting the nearest 7-Eleven store and making my payments there. My card will be swiped and reloaded. Most of the time, this works for me, although there will be hiccups now and then. The most frequent problems are that some convenience stores just provide the pin, and you will need to top it up on your own, or the store’s line is disrupted.

I came across the NFC TnG card several times before, but was never enticed to get one because my previous Samsung phone did not have the NFC and contactless payment feature. Now that I’ve switched to a second-hand Samsung S23Plus, I get to explore this further.

In fact, I bought the Eid edition TnG card a few weeks ago since the design looks pretty cute.

I ordered the card through the Touch and Go app for RM25, and it arrived home via the Ninja courier. Now it is easier to reload the card, as I can tap it on the back of my phone with the amount of money I want. This should be handy if I need to reload it on the highway urgently. It eliminates the need to stop at the RnR or gas station!

Eid trendy challenges with colleagues

If by-the-book millennials run this place, these videos would not have been produced. We just don’t have the energy.
Thanks to our full-of-life colleagues who are in the younger age bracket of Gen Y and the older age range of Gen Z, we were able to participate in this fun video. All the ‘older’ us have to do is just follow their instructions. They do the recording and the editing.

I really appreciate their enthusiasm for taking the effort to include everyone in this annual fun activity.
