Lantern Festival

Ms Sherene Gan and Ms Nisha had taken the trouble to organise a Lantern Festival for the folks of Glenmarie Cove, a first for our community. I hope the residents will support and make this first Lantern Festival gathering a successful and enjoyable one.

Community Update

It has been quite a while since I last updated this blog. There were many ongoings that actually needed the attention of this space but I never got round to do it, procrastinating is at it level high.

But, for today's post, I can't delay it as Pastor Joe requested that as member residence, we ought to know that one of our fellow neighbour, Mr Peter Cheng of Precinct 2 passed away and that the people in Glenmarie Cove would like to extend our condolences to the Cheng family over the sudden loss of Mr Peter Cheng. I am sure he will be sadly missed.

It is sad that I have to post something so sombre after such a long hiatus.

Photos House Keeping

I was just sorting through my handphone's memory card and noticed that there are many Glenmarie Cove Residents photos inside. Before deleting it, I am committing it into this blog to keep for posturity.

Latest photos of GC

Dear Neighbours,   Our very own kampung in a span of 3 years:   New resident and visitor pedestrian access gate.  Anyone noticed GC feels breezier these few days?       Plastic and rubbish growing campaign in progress.  It should be able to cover the overgrown "lalangs" real soon.       New aesthetic facade.        This is what we call drawing attention and publicity to GC.  Errr, where are the fire hose and sand buckets within GC compound?    Guess what?  We as residents can do something abouut GC before it turns out like this.       It's your prerogative.  It's your home.  It's your chidren's home.  It may be your third generation  family home.  It's our home. It's our community.  So please voice your concerns and possible solutions (if any) with the new Pro-Tem Committee by emailing me so that I can compile and tabulate your concerns and forward them to the respective Precinct street representatives during the next coming meeting.

One Big Happy Gathering

The pretty ladies of Glenmarie Cove, I know many husbands throw “dagger look” at Taiso during this photo session, hahaha.

Standing back row : Mary Wee, Badriah, Mrs Yong, Mary Lowdik, Prames

Seated : Pat, Doris, Penny, Taiso, Chris, Shelley, VG




What do one feel from looking at this following picture?



I believe the laughter tells it all, doesn't it? The GC as we know of is ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY, for those who cared to be part of the family. Beside the obvious feasting, the one thing that is priceless is the joy of each other's company that is hard to find elsewhere. No one would believe that most of us here depicted only knows each other for less than 3 years in total (as of date of writing). Looking at these pictures, it seemed like we all have known each other all our lives and that is one of the greatest ingredients for a comfortable and satisfying friendship.

THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING WITHIN GC - original by Nicky

You know, it never ceases to amaze me how some people can be so shallow minded and so dirty that they have no qualm of abusing the environment and leaves behind rubbish, just for the sake of irritating others and inviting pests. I wonder if their own house is pests infested or probably, they are themselves one, thus their uncivilised behaviour??

A picture tells a thousand words, look at it yourself and decide whether we want to be like this, shall we guard against irresponsible people like this and shall we counsel them if we come across them? I have had my share of cleaning up my surroundings, on occasions when some contractors throw styrofoam containers indiscriminately after their lunch, while doing renovations.

If these type of people can't take care of common public properties, then, these type of people should be banned from using the said facilities. They should be ashamed of themselves, whoever they are. - webmaster

------------------------------------------------------------ Looks like a resident is bent on making GC look like a rubbish dump. If left unchecked it'll eventually end up like a land fill. Dear litter bug, where's your civic mindedness and conscienctiousness? You should not even be doing this. (Imagine this to be your own backyard, garden or lawn - Ed) Tell you what, if you can't clean after yourself please get yourself a maid to clear the nasi lemak wrappings, drinks and whatnots and also scrub the jetty floor once you've done with the gutting of the baits. And make sure the rubbish is thrown into your rubbish bin, yes, your OWN rubbish bin and INTO, not on top or outside the bin cos stray dogs will litter your neighbours' compound which is quite unfair to them (them as in your neighbours, not the dogs) Also, in case you are unaware of this, fishes don't eat cigarette butts so please don't throw them into the river cos they don't grow like kangkong either. (probably their parents didn't teach them - Ed) Oh, don't thank me for pointing out your shortcoming. I'm just playing my part to make sure you are aware that I and all the other residents here love and appreciate this neighbourhood and we hope you would too someday. (well, if they don't, at the very least, don't make people HATE them, right?? - Ed) Photos for your viewing pleasure: (not viewing pleasure, it's viewing agitation, my dear friend - Ed)

ERIC YONG'S DINNER PHOTO

A few of us were treated to some nice home made food by Eric Yong and missus, way over at Precinct 2. As most of us just get to know Eric only during Taiso's birthday bash, not many people were aware of the small gathering but despite that, the regular kakis were all there. This following photo was taken by Nicky vide his NEW iPhone and can be seen in the photos were : the Yongs, the Moks (Penny face turned towards Doris), the Wees, the Ramayahs, Taiso and Chris (I don't know Taiso's surname, so, can't use the XXX in this instance) and Doris (the Mrs Santa Nicky-laus - partially hidden). Had loads of putu mayam and loads of vodka, most of us floated back instead of walked back, that's how much most of us drank. I was not too sure if anybody need dragging back, as when I left, there were a few still going strong with the liquors.

Tiger Men of GC.

Any excuse just for the companionship and get together. The photo, sent by Tony Wee was a dinner do because Ian and Sharon happened to come a visiting to Glenmarie Cove. At this rate, Glenmarie Cove would really need a BIG gym and OLYMPIC SIZED swimming pools, to burn off the calories and whatnots. I will upload some get together do that happened at Glenmarie Cove during the Chinese New Year 2010 and some other happenings soon.

Welcome 2010

2009 came and went. 2010 is upon us. As any good Glenmarie Cove resident can attest, there is no special occasion that is greeted without any fanfare!!

So, we have a last minute decision to hold a countdown party. Kudos must be given to the "mobilising" team, consisting of Jeff, Cathy, Mary Wee, Mary Lowdik and Agnes. Jeff got the flyer flying, got the sponsors and many other stuffs, whereas the roses helped in selling tickets, roping in people to come and join in the countdown etc etc.

Overall, the night was quite enjoyable. And special mention to Joe for emceeing, Nicky for co-emceeing and Venod for getting all the hardware and stuff.

Well, I am not going to do the second by second counts, suffice to say, those who had something on that night made special effort to turn up, really better late than never. Glad to report that Precinct 2 people too came in full force.

Jeff & Cathy's Xmas Get Together

Jeff and Cathy hosted a Xmas Get Together together with Tony and Mary Wee as the co-host. It was just a small gathering with a handful of regulars who were able to spare the time, it would have been a bigger get together but for it was sort of impromptu kind of thing.

Here are some of the good people of Glenmarie Cove having good time over at the Harris's.
