Weekend in Penang
Update!
Do some shadow camwhoring!
Went to my friend's place in Teluk Kumbar. He decorated his guest room like a grand hotel room.
Well, I spent the entire Friday with my friend. Went to Queensbay mall.
Hung out at the Borders bookstore. Cool place. Nice discounts. Didn't buy any books though but managed to purchase a compilation of my old X-Factor comic.
Had a karaoke session later in the night. We left at 3.00am. Haven't done that in years. Ran out of songs to sing or we would have left at 4.00am. At least chinese classes came in handy. I can sing that silly 'lao shu ai da mi' or 'Rat likes to eat rice' song. *Victory sign*
Two grievances while in Penang:
The next day was Sunday which was well.. ordinary, boring and Internetless due to my above-mentioned shitty Streamyx connection.
- Hi Hi! I was up in Penang from Friday to Saturday visiting friend and family. Came back home to a stinky Streamyx connection (Did I say connection? I meant no connection so couldn't do any updates or surf either! )
- K.K. Your DOTA challenge has been read and accepted! ROFL, how do I get your contact? Thru Jimbo?

Cool panoramic shot from Queenbay Mall car park!

Two grievances while in Penang:
- Supposed to buy a particular tau sau pheah biscuit for my colleague from the market. Shop closed.
- Wanted to eat ho chien (oyster omelette). Friend took me to two so-called best places for this dish. Unfortunately (as you may guess), both places were closed. (ARGH!)

Hmmm.....I love Penang Laksa.
I hope your trip was as *exciting* as can be :) Welcome back.
Karaoke about rats and rice? ick.. nothing like Bob Seger 'Against the Wind" or "Roll Away"?
Shadows can be deceiving, I see tentacles and one big ear.. could Jonzz be alien?
LM: Dude, I did write Seasons bus. But the company was Konsortium
KK: Wah, you sound like you have a pro DOTA team... scared di... we only play for fun you know and we always switch members, he he
PB: Puduraya is in KL, it's the bus station around the Petaling Street/Chinatown area.
Lee Ping: I guess so
stay-at-home-mum: Welcome! I had personal chauffeurs to take me around
annie: eeks no gifts... hands full, travelling by bus. That's just a chinese song school kids know.
don't call me alien. that's LM's role.
as a long-time consumer of these biscuits, i recently found out that these two brands are over-rated, as there are other manufacturers that can match up, in terms of taste & quality.
i recently tried out this shop at chowsrata market , Tong Thye Hin, who sells equally good biscuits at a cheaper price (RM8 compared to RM9.50 for the other two), & they even have pandan flavour as well. how cool is that??!!
[doc]: Hello, welcome! He he... I have no idea. I'm not particularly fond of tau sar pheah. I bought Him Heang. A colleague wanted me to buy Aik Lee's brand but it was closed =P
