Our first Buddhist Parable YouTube video : Mar-22

We have decided to share about our Soka Gakkai practise as one of our YouTube channel pillars. So, for our very first wave, we shall try to create and upload as many Buddhist parables to share with our audience and hopefully one day they will be able to discover and like them. Our very first parable is on Lotus Sutra Chapter 3, Parable of the three carts and the burning house.  We planned to do them both in English and Chinese and upload on a weekly basis.  Wish we good success in this endeavour.


HIIT together with Instructor Shin : Mar-22

I fix our KDK fan problem, with the help from DIY SG : Mar-22

This was the power for social media... In March, I randomly posted a youtube video about our noisy KDK fan in our room and how the KDK assessed and concluded that our fan was beyond repair.  Almost immediately a YouTuber DIY SG commented on my post and advised me how to fix the fan.  I took the courage to try out his suggestions and guess what?  I succeeded and savaged our fan!

Replace cracked tiles, HDB Home Improvement Program HIP : Mar-22

We had our 'nightmare' during our HIP program which we renovated our toilets and also took the opportunity to do up our kitchen. It was almost a year now... As HIP has a warranty for a year and we discovered some cracked tiles in our toilet, we decided to give HDB call 1800 2255 432. Within a few days, those cracked tiles were replaced within 2 hours...


Guitar Duet with En'en : Barbie Girl : Mar-22

It has been a long while since I played along with En'en, the last best time we had was with our ukulele, playing Crazy G.

After that she picked up Ruan, a Chinese Orchestra Instrument and also joined Soka Chinese Orchestra for a while...

Last year, with my spare guitar, she decided to picked it up and start learning. I must admit that she does have some gifted talent in string instrument... and now we can play together again! This is a short and sweet melody, Barbie Girl. Enjoy!

Finally, our YouTube Channel Intro video for Shinykoh : Mar-22

We finally spent an afternoon to complete shooting our YouTube channel introduction video.  It was tough either way, with script or without... Nevertheless we still went on with having a script so that we would not miss out any pointers.  It was "super" unnatural.. Anyway, I continued to spend another few hours to complete editing the video and uploaded this.   Honestly, I think this video would not help too much in rallying many subscribers, but at least it would provide a rationale to why we are promoting it. :-)
