I hope it never ends



The weather is so crazy now, I always feel that I might fainted if I exposed to this weather for long time. However, it didn't stop us to visit the largest floating book fair in Penang now - Logos Hope although quite a number of people said that it's not worth to go.

Meet our beautiful cruise.
Saw the whole pail of tickets, imagine how many people visited the Logos Hope? It is only RM1 per entry.
We were invited to watch a video about the history of Logos Hope before continue our journey; sat on this little cockleshell.
Can't take my eyes off this little telescope, it reminds me of something about adventurous, something about being a dreamer; which I wished I were one. Stories on the wall are for us to read, and it becomes a very good spot to take photos with, historical wall. Laugh.
The book fair is quite small, yet these books are really cheap to own, although not much variety. Too bad I came out with empty hand, I couldn't found anything that suit me well; quite disappointed with this.
Meet Icy and Katie, the crews that told us stories about the Journey of Life; telling us which path should we take in the future.
Continued my journey over here, Muntri Street, sound familiar? Yup, we went to MoonTree47 again, just to showed a friend how amazing this cafe is. Scrabble again! I really into this games now. Too bad, they took off the Marilyn Monroe picture, and replaced it with something abstract. 


. . . . . . . . . . 


I wish time could stop over here.

Killed the mood please~



Happy Aidilfitri to my readers here. Bad weather was over and now the sun is hanging on the sky, big and bright; but it is just too hot for me. The best way to kill the gloomy mood of mine is to hang out, with sister; again accompanied her to get something for new house.


Dined at Kim Gary, her favourite, and we got the Cracker Staco for free; it is weird to mix crackers and food together, not my taste.


. . . . . . . . . . 


I did a lot, yet it's still not enough, or too much?

Sourness



People were a lot at every single places, since they were started to prepare their mood for the coming feast. Idea popped up, we want to bowl at night! This is a sudden thought, convened friends on the spot yet we still had some spare time before the play.

Had our pit stop at Old Town before get going to fetch others. 
First time to bowl at Sunshine Square, it is quite spacy if compare with the Penang Bowl, still I prefer to go for the latter; nicer for me.
Supper at Pelita nearby USM, hardly to find us a table in the crowd. Enjoyed the moment when we watched the fireworks together with all the people there; also, enjoyed talking with them, until late night nearly to 2am.


. . . . . . . . . . 


Actually, do you see me?

Little Warm



Felt fed up with the weather now, non-stop raining for whole day, and I was shivering all the time; my mood turned gloomy too. Sigh.
Dinner at CF Food Court nearby jetty, this weather didn't stopped people from eating nice food. 
My parents are very into the Fish Head Bee Hoon, the most famous stall over there. I just caught the 'mist' in this photo. (RM12 for two)
Me and sister ordered the Salted Vegetables Soup with Yam Rice, too bad they only left white rice when we reached. (RM11.60 for two)


. . . . . . . . . .


It always think too much.

Sniff like a doggie



Not much nice movies to watch nowadays, so we just simply picked one - Spy Kids: All the Time in the World; and this movie is delivered in 4D. We didn't noticed it until we got our tickets, together with a sheet of Aroma-Scope. So, what is the 4D technology?


Scent! This is the first movie that allows people to smell odors and aromas from the film, you just need to rub the number when they appear on the screen. I was busied rubbing the card and I got all the odors, this amused me. Laugh. Jessica Alba is gorgeous in the movie yet the story line is too short and I feel it is just okay to watch with.


. . . . . . . . . .


This is the heart problem; it feels disappointed.

You are what you eat!



When night falls, one of my favourite street - Kimberley Street comes to live and you can find old-Penang style street hawker food along a stretch of this street. One of the stall didn't open when we reached there, the stall which sell koay teow th'ng; people say they serve nice noodle soup, but I like it at other place more, will post about it when I visit again. Yet, the side dishes they serve like the soy sauce chicken and braised chicken legs are awesome! I was there not for that ofcourse, instead I craved for the Koay Chap!

Braised Duck Koay Chap . RM5
There's only one stall selling koay chap there, so you won't miss it, besides, nearby the stall will always have a huge crowd too. Ingredients they used are duck meat, pork coagulated blood, braised egg and various innards; this is the only place that I eat the innards, still, I didn't eat the pork coagulated blood. The best part is their self-made chili sauce, it is really special and taste good. 

Side dishes - Yong Tau Foo . RM4-RM8


. . . . . . . . . .


Listen to my heart.

I need to pamper myself more



A shopping day with my sister, it was quite a good weather to go out today, and we got ourselves quite a  number of treasures. Too bad, some of the items that I planned to get were sold out, I should get it once I saw them. Regret. Etude house is doing promotion and I bought a few pieces of mask, it's time to get my face condition better. Sometimes, I need something nice to pamper myself.

She is into this color nowadays, all the items she bought today were in fuchsia pink. 
New piece in my wardrobe. Hearted
Take your passion and make it come true. Can I?


. . . . . . . . . . 


It is like every Saturday, we are going to Penang Bowl, and thanks to Yeam for the lunch just now.

Just another day



My another visit to Ang Hoay Loh this afternoon before throwing myself in the libraire environment; ordered the same dishes like last time. We didn't spent much time waiting our food to reach us this time, maybe it was because we went there during weekdays.
Next stop is Starbucks, Borders at Queensbay Mall, I nearly spent my whole day just to read on some books. Brought my tumbler together and use one less paper cup every time I go there, my little move to go green with them; I spotted nice cup!
Mid Autumn Festival is around the corner, people were queued up to get their mooncakes, I'm not really into it actually, I just like the egg yolk inside. Laugh. Love the new design of the Mango, look vintage isn't it?
Again, went to the fun park after the walk; this time we did played some simple games. 
Prizes of the day. Forgot to change back the mode, blur.

Do you care?

To be or not to be



Went for an interview just now, glad to meet up with Yong Sin there; was wondering when will we have ZooIsCute's gathering? The interviewer was nice, people in the company are also friendly to me, but is it the job that I really want? Transform into a Ms. Thinker.

Everyone else want to call me for an interview? Laugh


. . . . . . . . . .


Enjoyed driving alone.

Breakfast of the day



Along the way to Penang Airport, there is a shop named Joo Leong Cafe which is always famous with their toasted bread and half boiled egg. Everytime I go over there, I'll get to see a white spot car outside the cafe, it's belong to the owner of the cafe. Hoho. No parking lots for you, you can always spot the long stretched cars parking by the road side. Oh yeah, they closed on Monday.

2 Toasted Breads for RM2, you can sprinkle some sugar on the top and tip it into the half boiled egg.
2 half boiled eggs for RM1.40.

Got a call from a company to tell me that tomorrow I have an interview with them, I never know it reaches me that fast, am I ready?

. . . . . . . . . .


You are always not here for me.

Can you say NO to them?



Dating with my sister to go for our dinner at Shua Shua Le, Prangin Mall which famous with their Tom Yum. Both of us always cannot resist for their tom yum, you will get to smell the scent of it before you enter the shop compound. Although the price is getting more expensive than last time, yet it would be a good experience for you to try out. Didn't had much time for us to eat, so we didn't ordered the steamboat set, we just went for ala-carte.

Fish Fillet Salad . RM5.50
Tom Yum Maggie . RM7.30

Maybe other restaurants have better tom yum, but this is more than enough, I like the taste and the squid ball to the max. Burp. Cha-time again after the meal, I'm not really into it, so I just shared it with my sister. 2 months left for me to get some nice dresses!


. . . . . . . . . .


I'm what?

To show our respect



Went nowhere today, had some small family gathering at my home with aunties and cousins; celebrated the Hungry Ghost Festival.

Burning the papier-mache form of gold and clothes. 


. . . . . . . . . .


Goodbyes always make my throat hurt; I need more hellos.

Crave for more sushi



Went to Adventist to look for dentist, not me, I was just a accompany; felt regret that I came out from there with empty hands, I should buy some bread which they famous with, smack. Decided to have Japanese food as our lunch when we read the article in newspaper, they served great food with a lower price. Matsuki Japanese Restaurant which located at Cantonment Road, off Gurney Drive.

I always passed by this restaurant, this was the first time I stepped into its land. The restaurant was full with office workers at this lunch hour, they did made their reservation before they came; so what we can do was wait for our turn, scanned their menu while waiting.
All the food samples; peek their Maneki Neko - Lucky cat
Sanma Kabayaki Yasai Itame Set . RM18
Grilled mackerel pike and fried mixed vegetables, all lunch set are served together with chawanmushi, miso soup and fruits.
Sukiyaki Set (Beef) . RM18
Mixed vegetable and beef cooked in claypot with sweet sukiyaki sauce, but you can also call them to separate the beef.
Lady Sushi . RM12
Selection of 5 pieces of raw fish topped on vinegared rice. Every set lunch also comes with a scoop of Haagen Dazs ice cream.

The restaurant is only open from 12pm to 2.30pm for lunch and 6pm to 10.30pm for dinner. I quite enjoyed myself over there, never stop craving for sushi. Laugh


. . . . . . . . . .


I want more sushi, and many many wasabi!




August 11, 2011

Cha-time



A night out with family, sister was the one who claimed that she got thing to buy but ended up I was the one who bought goods. Smack.

The new booth in Gurney, Chatime, you can see people holding a cup to sip on it. Queuing up to wait for our turn.
Love the water-drop dolly, each with different design.


. . . . . . . . . .


You need to thanks me to the max! Laugh

Hello to you, and you



Good to meet up with one of my sister in university, she is back in Malaysia now and came to visit me together with her friend. We both had lunch at Sakae Sushi while waiting her friend to join us afterwards, no why, I just craved for sushi that time. Thanks. I spotted a bag in Forever 21, should I buy it? Bought a little thingy for myself, and Peiwen was the girl who spent the most. Laugh.

Ppwen; and my new friend here, Wei Wen.
This is good! Choco!

Back to normal again.

I live in a food paradise



Watched The Rise of the Planet of the Apes at Queensbay Mall, still enjoyed using my student card to buy tickets, Laugh. Was amazed by the intelligence of the apes, although it might because of some boost up; there might have this type of ape in real life.

Funfair nearby the mall, not really interested with those games, but I like to see people have fun with that, I was there juts to share their enjoyment. An Indian lady was then tell me: Go play some games, it is easy to win! She won the Bingo and got her daughter a toy.
With the body shape I have, people always thought that I didn't eat supper at all; I try very hard not to, but I'm still eat in the midnight! I always tell them: I live to eat. Laugh. My all-time-favourite, the famous Air Itam Duck Rice; their business starts right after 11pm until 3am in the morning. A great place to go if you fancy good food in the midnight, I go few times in a month, crazily.
You need to queue up to place your order, and it's self service to get your rice to your table; we seldom seen a stall with signboards like these, Penang is definitely a interesting place. If you come here late, the duck might be sold out and they will closed earlier.
Mixed-all-duck rice for RM4, quite reasonable for good food like this in the middle of midnight.


. . . . . . . . . . 


Don't forget anything about me.

The night



Dinner at Pulau Tikus, I miss the Lok Lok there; purposely went there to eat that. The stall was not the same when I reached there, changed to other, yet the old one was just moved to another side, will only visit it next time when I'm free. Laugh.

The new one, not much variety to choose with.
The sauce was just okay, I miss the old one.
We were then went to Overtime to meet up friends, this time with total of nine people, we went for a barrel which cost around RM350. Stayed there for almost 3 hours, most of the time we were had fun with card games, so lucky that I'm actually quite alert among the girls, and always remembered the rules we set. Too bad, I didn't had much chance to drink the Starker beer, winner of the day I guess.
Brothers. Too bad, I forgot to snap photo of the girls. 


. . . . . . . . . . 


Comparison always hurt.

Strolling along the road



Due to sister wanted to buy some props for her wedding photo shooting, so whole family were out with her to the night market at Batu Ferringhi. Was so excited because I had long time didn't went to night market; I should go the Connaught night market when I went KL.

Local traders put up their stalls along the walkway despite the main road along Batu Ferringhi, theses stalls stretches for a distance of more than 1km; of course we didn't finished all of it. Bad thing is they seldom have food stalls along the way, I need food! Drool. Stopped by at Long Beach Food Court to grab a refreshment since we bought all the things she need.
Mixed Fresh Fruit Pancake with Ice-Cream - RM12. By the way, I seldom shoot food from this angle, Laugh. 
Chicken Satay - RM8 for 1 dozen. I miss Kajang Satay very much!


. . . . . . . . . .


Learn from yesterday and live for today.

When life gets hard



No special feel when I stepped in my university, but I know I miss my sisters and friends, when will I get to meet you all? We were all discontent why we need to go back for our presentation, while other students who did they internship at other states need not go back. It just took around 3 hours to finished the session. Too bad that I need to leave earlier, lose a chance to spend time with roomie. No more food hunting after this, went to Ikea again for their food, and I really like the designs there, got some ideas for my future house.


Never saw the cafe with empty tables and seats, this was the first time; it's fasting period for Malays, and maybe it was during weekday. No food photos this time, or you can view back my old entries about Ikea. Good bye Kuala Lumpur, and say Hi to my lovely island.


. . . . . . . . . .


Sometimes, I feel stressful.
