The Story Continues

Well, too much fun made me forgot about my blog. Anyway, time to continue writing my story. After Kedah and the a-bit-too-much food, I went to Penang with four other friends from Intec - Yi Nan, the driver, Joseph, the stalker, Lun Feng, the silencer, and Jun Jie, the dunno-wat-words-to-describer.  A heavy rain poured down the instant we reached there.  A very sad case as we were forced to sit in a mamak shop and limteh.  Penang rain, first time to experience it.

After the rain stopped, we went to Fort Cornwallis.  Took some pictures with the wrongly-arranged cannons.  Next we moved to food-hunting session.  Penang Char Kuew Tiaw tastes around the same as the one in my hometown.  Haha...no offence, but my hometown is always the best in my heart.  Went to a bridge which was a scene in the movie "Ais Kacang Puppy Love".  The view of the vast sea was kinda awesome.  Taking pictures with the sea as the background looked even better.  Found out that all my friends were scared of dropping into the sea when I touched their backs from behind when they were standing at the side of the bridge.

After the sea view, we strolled around a historical place known as George Town.  Nothing very impressive, but the buildings looked nice albeit their old looks.  Yi Nan was the tour guide although he is from Kedah.  Shame on the other three who are from Penang...haha.  Somehow, all the places closed down on me when we went there.  Apparently most of the tourism sides close at 5 p.m.  The unlucky me felt nothing bad about it.  At least I reached the doorways.  A bit disappointed, we moved on to Kek Lok Si.  Maybe it was not meant to be, that place was closed too.  We had no choice but to go to the last place, the Gurney Drive.

Gurney Plaza is a nice place to shop.  We had a lot of fun in the Toys "R" Us.  A bunch of 18 or 19 years old young adults playing the kids' toys.  Definitely NOT ashame.  Bought a Cupido for someone.  And that person liked it very much. =) After the plaza, we moved on to food again.  Heard before that Gurney Drive had a lot of food.  And yes there was.  We were quite full when we left the place.  A big "thank you" to Yi Nan for being the driver.

The next day, we had breakfast together.  The rest of the day was spent with Joseph in the Aeon Seberang Prai, window shopping and movie watching.  Thor, not a bad movie, but the story line was kind of expected.  Then we went to visit St. Anne Church.  First time walking into a Catholic Church.  Really different from Methodist Churches.  Then we went to Celok Tok Kun (don't remember how it is spelled).  Nice environment.  Mengkuang Dam next.  Saw a lot of fishes.  Those two days, I listened to Joseph's dad as he talked philosophy to me.  Haha...thanks Joseph for the hospitality.  Oh, and the fruits.

So, I am now back to Shah Alam.  This semester is really relaxing.  6 hours of classes per week.  4 days out of 7 are free.  Feel like taking tuition classes.  Will find something interesting and meaningful to do... Summer, enjoy myself to the max =D
