i feel like i'm playing Monopoly and i landed on 'Community Chest'/'Chance'

on the way home from a rather pricey dinner (sigh - it was yum though so COMPLETELY justified...) and had to withdraw cash from the ATM. was rather dismayed at the balance displayed on the screen after the money was spat out and while walking home, was calculating where all my money disappears to each month.

bemoaning the "loss" of my monthly paycheck, i arrived home and realised i had mail. from the insurance company. gosh, i thought, maybe it's about them asking for payment (i.e. my direct-debit/GIRO failed to go through again this month).

to my pleasant surprise, the rather fat letter read:

Dear Policyholder

We refer to our letter dated 28 February 2008.

We wish to clarify that there was no need for you to submit a fresh GIRO form. You may wish to know that we have already forwarded the GIRO form submitted previously to your banker for approval. We shall be writing to you again upon receipt of the bank's approval to confirm the deduction date of your premium.

As a gesture of regret, we have enclosed a S$20/- TANGS shopping voucher.

We apologise for the confusion caused and thank you for your kind understanding on this matter.


whoa! God has a great sense of humour. AMAZING. especially since on the way home doubts were running in my mind about His provision for my finances.

and you know what's the kicker in this? He sent me a shopping voucher! indeed God, You are all-knowing and such a cool friend... :)
