Everything (Almost Everything) I like here in Steemit! / 我所爱的Steemit挑战或活动
Today is the sixth day of our Chinese New Year! School has started for my girls and I have also started working today. I haven't been active for the past week. So I haven't been posting as per what I normally do. I have been thinking what to post for today. But I couldn't decide because I have so many things that I wanna write about. So I thought why not I do a compilation of everything (well almost everything) I like to do here in Steemit. And here I am with my compilation post!
恭喜发财!心想事成!身体安康!国泰民安!万事如意!今天是年初六!女儿们已经开课了。我也开工了。过去的一个星期,因为过年所以并没有在写部落格,也很少在这里活动留言等。想了一整天,到底我应该写些什么呢,但因为有太多我喜欢和想写的东西,所以最后就决定不如来个大合集吧!
5 Minutes Freewrite Challenge
First, let's do a 5 minutes Freewrite challenge which I haven't been doing for a week or two now. The prompt I have is SNAKE. So here's my Freewrite and as usual, I am doing it with The Most Dangerous Writing App
Snake. Cold. Long. Eerie. Scary reptilia. Ya. These are the words, well more precisely are adjectives, that pop into my head when I see the word SNAKE. I have had this super scarie experience with SNAKE. Till now I still remember it.
It was a Saturday afternoon back when I was still a Secondary school student. Yup very very very long time ago. OK. Saturday normally I didn't have school. So I was "playing" computer or I was chatting with someone via MIRC or ICQ. Now you roughly know how old am I... LOL
I was all alone at home. My mom had gone out to pick up my brother from school. I was in the study room. There's a cabinet on my right-hand side.
When my brother came home, he came into the study room. He stood next to me, I couldn't remember why I stood up, but then we were two standing side by side each other.
And then suddenly I felt something long at my foot. I thought it was my brother's belt. So I asked him why he threw his belt on the floor. He was surprised and said his belt was still on him.
Both of us looked down to see an almost 2 feet long blackish snake on the floor. We were shocked and scared to death. My brother was tall and his feet were longer. And in no time he was already outside the study room. I could only think of jumping up to the big table in the room. And both of us screamed for help.
At the end, it was our mom, yes mommy is always the BEST! Our mom came to our rescue. She got a big long bamboo and struck the head of the snake.
We were all safe! The snake might have sneaked into our study room and hid behind the cabinet. I was so lucky that it didn't come out when I was all alone at home. Super lucky.
Captured this at Langkawi with my Redmi 4x during our visit last December.

If you know nothing about this cool 5-Minute Freewrite Daily Challenge, you should check out @mariannewest's introduction post to this cool challenge by @mariannewest and @improv.
And as usual, I love to take this freewrite challenge together with the most dangerous writing app . Just set the timer for 5 minutes, and then just write. ALERT! Don't stop and think for more than 3 seconds! WHY? Coz if you stop typing for 3 seconds, all your words will vanish! YES, everything you have typed will be gone.
If you think you can't write, please STOP thinking. Just GO FOR IT! Maybe you can take a look at my first freewrite post. It's a disaster, everytime I read it, I ended up laughing. Freewrite is about having FUN too! So writer or not, (I know I am not really a professional writer), we all can have FUN coming up with creative little ideas and thoughts with this Freewrite daily prompt! What are you waiting for? Go WRITE your first freewrite NOW! Have FUN!

Found some yellow flowers in my Google Photos. All captured with my beloved Redmi 4x.

um... please don't mind me, I am just testing this out. I am not spamming, really. I'll be on my way now. oh yes... I just upvoted you by the way. Stephard Tester, superoo7/superoo7-dev
And glad it didn't sneak out in the middle of midnight sleep! what an experience!
Meanwhile. I am carrying a special delivery from @mariannewest: Today's prompt: https://steemit.com/freewrite/@mariannewest/day-125-5-minute-freewrite-wednesday-prompt-cinnamon
Give us another freewrite!
And one more thing. Welcome back from the recess!
Ya... imagine stepping onto "it" middle of the night... OMG! That would be a nightmare and disaster... I wonder can snake climb ladder???
Thanks for the special delivery!
Ladders! Nop. I dont think so. You have one in your room! You might need one, just in case lol
Nope.
Wah put all into 1 post!
Coz I don't want to write 3 posts... So 3 in 1 loh...
我觉得你好强,可以写作,思维又清晰,厉害, 哈哈。
还好啦,没写很长,都是短短的,而且也通常都是我的经历和我所知道的题材。
过奖过奖!
谢谢!
That is a good compilation and an all-in-one post! It is a very unique idea but saves time for people since there are no various posts to go through.
Thanks! It's not easy to go through many post from the same person... And we don't have enough SP and VP to keep voting the same person... So I thought why not just put everything in one post. 😉
Thank you so much for making me hungry with all your food pictures!!! LOL
And for mentioning the freewrite 😄
I always love yours - they are real.
I would have been so scared if I found a snake....
Always love Freewrite!!! Awesome challenge! Whenever people ask me what can they write about... I will tell them FREEWRITE! You are given a prompt... Just follow the instruction and write.
Glad you love the food... Virtual feast is the best... we get to enjoy various kind of food without having to worry about the cholesterol and weight problem... LOL...
Thanks!
I thought I give you a vote and a follow as my brand new podcast account :)
Thanks @mariannewest @sustainablelivin!!!
Haha, doing a compilation like that seems fun! I Especially like to read anyone's freewrite challenges, cuz it's a fun way to write and most of the time it's a fun read as well!
I've done this twice but I went for 20 minutes instead of 5 to make it more challenging for me :P
Writing freewrite for 20 minutes! Wow! That is super challenging... I will stick to 5 minutes for now first. Thanks for dropping by!
@elizacheng 喔,这个“大杂烩"就好比 "盘菜" - 要什么有什么 :D
对哟。。。真的有点想盆菜。不过如果不是时间不够,又怕一次写太长,还有其他的挑战我也想放进来。啊,可能明天再来一个吧!
Very geng eh u, killed three birds with one stone and every part of your posts is with quality some more! Salute :) But the snake part is quite scary even as I try to imagine how it was like for you.
Thank you Thank you Thank you! 💕💖 💓 💗
Ahhh again! Looking at food photo when I'm empty stomach 🤦🏻♂️
quickly go eat your lunch / brunch!
