Day One (final part)

Back at the room. iPod is dying and Unc Justin's phone run dry. No extension! Called the room service to get us one and it's like it take ages to get it to our room. So, the second time, Unc Justin called and the person in charged said there's not enough staff in Malay. So Unc Justin turn to his lousy malay and said "U MAU SAYA TURUN AMIK SENDIRI AH??!!!" minutes after that a knock on our door. We got what we got. I mean we didn't actually get what we want but a 3 pin plug works. It's an old and yellowish plug. Ewkk!! Nothings new in here!
Next destination is, Gurney. And "Mr know it right" said his Justin's map is better than google map. Whatevalah Kay. We spend more than half an hour in the car going one big circle there at last looking sign boards for direction. Sick lah! Reach there late. And that fellow just left his car right in front of the door to the staircase which is obviously illegal. Arghh! Just don't care and we walked to Gurney Drive. Its crowded as usual.







And these are a few food that we've ordered. My favorite ho chian. Fried oyster! Yum yum!! We also ordered pasembor, rojak and grilled fish. I'm getting hungry as I am typing this!!




















And theres a story behind this last dish here. I saw this lady sitting beside our table eating this nicely. I was wondering what it was and curiousness kills! I asked her and she laughed. She looked at her boyfriend and her boyfriend said "you tell lah" that made me even anxious to know! She finally stopped and said "Gai Si Fat" which simply means chicken backside it the bishop's nose! We laughed but we ordered. you won't believe how delicious it was if you don't think where it came from. Finished and walked over to Gurney Plaza for shopping. Went in to my favorite shop, Soda! Tried and bought a pants and mum bought herself a blouse. Know what? Before we pay, they already pulled down the grills and we were the last ones. Thanks to Mr know it right, this is the only shop we've visited in Gurney. Went back to the hotel and surfed the net till almost 4am. Hehe...

Day one (part 2)

The room.... The HORROR!!! it's too ugly for me to take any photo. It's size is just nice for two bed a table and they don't even have enough place to place the coffee table. They just simple "ARRANGE" it beside the bed which there is not any room to go the coffee table unless through the bed. Pathetic!!! The TV.... the switches.... Gosh... It's detached from the wall.... What a horrible room. My school power points are better.(not forgetting my school has the worst facilities EVA!) so... Set our stuff and we decided to walk our way to the famous cendul stall. I got the map from foursquare and we start walking. So excited doing this with my family for the first time using my iPod and foursquare. So proud!! It's quite near and there's so much o explore and see when you walk to your destination compared to driving.











And here we are!! We finally reach here with our very empty stomach!



























These are the lovely food that "kind of" satisfied our tummies. The char kuay tiao and the cendul taste as awesome as the last time we came, But the laksa and the Loh mee was terrible. I mean it's edible but it doesn't meet my standards. Move on. Back on our feet and we start walking searching for 1st Avenue. Unc Justin aka "Mr know it right" was too ego finding his own way to 1st Avenue and not believing in technology.








What to do, a man can't leave his ego, following directions from others looses. We separated and we made our way there proudly!








In here, nothing much. Just a shopping mall that you can find all the branded items you need. And mum found hers....











Nah.... She didn't buy any bags here. Look at her face. She is too sad that her current bag can't afford her dream bag. I guess the current bag wants her with it longer... Haha. She said she will get it this year end in Hong Kong wor... Haha... Whatevalah~ went back to hotel after buying some stuff. It's not very sunny and it was not raining. Best for walking. :)

Penang trip - Day One (part 1)

Morning or good to say, the afternoon sun is shining through my room window lighting my room. I woke up. It's almost afternoon. I haven't pack a thing. Anyways what is there to pack? It's just 2 days... By now, half a day is gone. I don't really care much about packing. Just some clothes and toiletries will do. And there, packed and ready to go. Before we depart, Unc. Justin still have his work to do. Mum is obviously unhappy. It's printed all over her face. Unc. Justin is repeating his role as the one that drags time knowing there's a train to catch. After he has finished his work. We head to a coffee shop to have a simple lunch. I had the smallest portion of Wan Tan mee ever. And there.... Hitting the highway and off we go! I was sleeping throughout the journey coz I slept quite late the day before. We stopped at a R&R to take a rest before we continue. Nothing much here.. But my hands itched to take photos... Here are some...















After that short break, went to the petrol station to refuel. And finally reaching the bridge...


Surprisingly, it's quite fast with the number of cars on this bridge. This are some scenes on the move from the window...





















And then, finally reached the hotel. So near yet so far... Still not so use to the one way road. It's kinda confusing. 1st impression... Okay lah... Should be better than YMCA... The last horrible hostel I went the last time.








The name itself gave a good impression. But once I took my first step in....
.....
.....
Gosh... It's old and creepy. And theres only one receptionist sitting there giving her bothering look. Maybe it's just her inborn lips that made her look frustrated and inpatient when she was attending to my mum. Gosh. The lift.... The horror.. Didn't even got in entirely and it closes fast even if you are pressing on that creepy old "open" button. When the lift lifts, gosh... It's exactly like some horror movie, it creeps me out imagining that there will be someone with long and wet hair waiting at the door to strangle me once the lift is open. The most hilarious thing was my mum suggested us to go to the swimming pool to have a look. Guess what... The swimming pool is at the 23rd floor. Our room is on the 13th floor. Compromising the condition of the lift, going up 13 floors is a nightmare... Going 23 floors would be a suicide!! Went in to the room after rushing out of the horrible lift..... To be continued....

Simple celebration for Mei Shing, turning 19 this June!

1 June

Today... Finally after almost half a year since I've stepped in a karaoke room. It's kinda rush today coz I have extra class in school then got duty till 1. Have to pick mum up from her school then only adjourn to KBox. They booked 1PM for the room. When I arrived, I was surprised. Mok was there. I don't even get the chance to warm my seat and VV dragged me out to buy a cake for Mei Shing. It's a early celebration for her. On the way there I saw Inn Shen. It's been awhile since I saw him. He is a bit plum compared to the previous time. Bought the cake after that and went upstairs. Before I made any selection, I saw the playlist of the songs selected by them.... Oh gosh!! 6 pages of songs. It's near impossible for me to choose any songs to sing. Plus... All the songs were in mandarin. My greatest enemy. Haha. When my song finally came, which is Ai Cuo by Lee Hom, the birthday song came. Missed the whole song. Whatever lah~ at least Mei Shing enjoyed herself. She sang most of it. It's her day. Ill und. Hee~ here's some pictures that we took.


















































































*ps: if you look at Mei Shing's picture slicing the cake or any other picture with a knife at the cake, you can see those hands are quite stiff. Haha... It's because that cake was to hard to cut. So please don't ever buy cakes from Ipoh Parade. By one look at those struggles cutting the cake, the taste of it won't be any better. :)
