Being Weak is NOT an Option

although not many classes this sem coz i've finished all my core subjects throughout my 7 semesters in the uni..but been busy with practising..quite into uni life nowadays..most of the time spend in practise room practising...
i've also started teaching part-time..its a good start..adorable students i have..and really smart too...trying to look for more teaching oportunity now..in need of experience and money..
mom called this afternoon..and i was still sleeping then..lolz..wasnt too pleased with me it seems..on that fact that i wont be home for some time..especially for raya holidays..which i'll be away with some frens for a short break..and also my unhealthy lifestyle...late nights..it seems i'm not coping too well with all the late nights like how i used to be...so time to grow up...less party..work harder..earn money...sleep earlier..sounds like no life..lolz...

kayz..anyways here comes the update on my Penang trip during last sem break...went with dear, David and Vivian..


WARNING: NON HALAL PICS AHEAD>>>>

supposed to leave in the morning..but after much delay and went back to David's house in Kepong coz he left the dvd player's remote control..officially leaving after lunch around 2pm..

Penang...at about 6pm..







quite gloomy...



this fella...4 hours of nonstop "exitement and entertainment" from him..







one of the "entertainment" of David's










just for funs..






Komtar



stopped by to ask for directions to our hotel...and i saw this...



nah let see have a better view of it..


we only booked our hotel on our way driving to Penang.and one of the exitement was discovering where is it located and how does it look like..
luckily it wasnt that bad..room rates were quite good..we stayed at Hotel Msia

David fixing the dvd player..yes he brought his own entertainment..



not bad lo..let u see the hotel..



now...try to guess its function..what purpose does it serve??



the air-cond controller..



at least we still have a tv set in out room..lolz


settled down..rest abit and watched dvd..went out for dinner quite late..9 something if i'm not mistaken..

we went to some food area where the stalls are at the road side...

Apong


Vivian and David






my beef balls noodles..ignorning the fact that its quite tasteless..i like it mainly coz of the thick Meehoon..



fried Chicken skin


fried chicken



Penang Char Kueh Tiaw





2nd day..woke up late morning coz of the late night movie sessions the night before..eventually we missed our complimentary breakfast..well we didnt know we had complimentary breakfast..lolz..

mission...Air Hitam's famous Asam Laksa



can see the famous Kek Lok Si from far..



Mua Chi..the best i've eaten..its a bicycle vendor selling muachi, near the Air Hitam Market..



here comes the famous asam laksa...quite good..plenty of fish and vege...but taste wise..the one in Cheras's Giant is better..but lesser fish and vege









fried popoiah and some other stuff...ok only...



remember to go Air Hitam for the famous Asam Laksa when ur in Penang..and look for this stall..its outside the Market..
went jalan jalan nearby..then went back to hotel for more dvd sessions..lepaked abit..and went out in the evening...


on the way to our 2nd mission before going back to hotel...Famous Penang Cendol..



only to realise that i ate this quite often sometime back..there's a stall of this famous cendol in Subang USJ's Giant..best in the sense that unlike normal cendol u eat, the cendol here doesnt harden when its covered and soaked in the ice..








behold....

went out around 530pm..headed for our 3rd mission..Bukit Bendera...

muachi again..but not as good as the one we ate in Air Hitam..well..we ended up at the wrong side of the Bukit Bendera..we were at the tracking site up to the Bukit Bendera..



on the way to the other side of Bukit Bendera to take the tram up..



=p



finally we got there



just in time for the 7pm tram




























reached the stop at the middle of the hill












we had 45mins to spend at the stop before the tram take us up to the top of the hill at 8pm



reached the hill top about 10mis later..



quite cooling up there...and i was smart enough to leave my jacket in the car..












a huge plant that grows away from the ground

we took the last tram down from the hill..it left at about 915pm..by the time we reached at the leg of the hill it was already close to 10pm..we were already starving...and looking forward to hav our dinner at Gurney Drive.



Fried stuff







got GeTai performance there due to the 7th month in chinese calendar..girls with sexy outfits will peform, belting out Hokkien and Chinese songs..such GeTai can be found in Singapore too..well it was believed that they perform for "the Brothers and Sisters"
