    Building Materials x Golf

    Hello people, I don’t know why I am sharing about Building Materials class again. You think I very like the class? Haha. So-so only. I like drawing and design class more. =D

    It was a tutorial class. Tutorial about our project so it was free time and we have got nothing to do at there in the class and it was cold. Talk, talk, talk only.


    Vincent from Vietnam.


    Pui Wooi from Sabah.

    Then suddenly, Wesley took a paper trash ball, and a T square then started acting like playing golf. LOL.

    HAHAHA.

  • The Other Guys Preview Screening Contest

    The Other Guys Preview Screening Contest

    Oh yeah. I just realised that there’s so many movie tickets contest here in Kuala Lumpur. Wonder why there’s no such contest in my hometown, Penang. But anyway, I am here to join the contest to win a pair of movie tickets by Xiangcool.com and courtesy of Adverlets.com.

    http://www.advertlets.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/theotherguys-movie.jpg

    Let’s start up with why I wanna watch the movie, The Other Guys basically because I like New York City as the scene is set in the great big apple. You know I love NYC so much and I even dream about a few times during my sleep. Then this movie is some sort of action plus comedy movie because you see the actor, there’s The Rock Dwayne Johnson, Will Ferrel the funny guy, Mark Wahlberg the cool one, Samuel L. Jackson and more! =)

    Have been checking out the cinema this two weeks and there’s no nice movie to watch and the coming weeks, The Other Guys is something more interesting to me.

    The movie is about detectives and crime in New York City. Talking about this, I think hiring more and more NYPD will reduce to crime rate in NYC. Easy and simple right. More and more police, more and more on the street and distribute everywhere then NYC is ownage already. LOL. Very lame.

  • I Want To Watch Step Up 3D

    I love dance movie and Step Up has finally come to the 3rd series and it’s in 3D. I am so excited for the release next week and going to watch it at Tropicana City Mall, anyone want to join me? =D

    Step Up 3D is a 2010 American 3D dance film written by Amy Andelson and Emily Meyer and directed by Step Up 2 the Streets Jon Chu. The sequel sees the return of Adam Sevani and Alyson Stoner, who portrayed Moose from Step Up 2 the Streets and Camille Gage from Step Up, respectively. (Wikipedia)

    Sharing a little bit sypnosis about the movie:

    New York’s intense street dancing underground comes alive in eye-popping Digital 3D in the third installment of the STEP UP franchise as the raw, passion-fueled culture goes global. A tight-knit group of street dancers, including Luke (RICK MALAMBRI) and Natalie (SHARNI VINSON), team up with NYU freshman Moose (ADAM SEVANI), and find themselves pitted against the world’s best breakdancers in a high-stakes showdown that will change their lives forever.

    Well you know I like New York and this movie is again set in New York and I get to see my dream city in the movie, somemore lots of nice music and dances. The only problem of me is that I like to see people dance but I couldn’t dance. Didn’t have to confidence to learn how to dance. So you think you can dance? I cannot. Haha. Anyway, I am just feeling excited about this movie so just sharing the trailer with you guys.

    Anyway, I get free tickets to the movie this Wednesday at Tropicana City Mall, Golden Screen Cinema, courtesy of Xiangcool.com and Advertlets.com. Thank you the very much! =D

  • Walkaround Kuala Lumpur Before College Started

    Walkaround Kuala Lumpur Before College Started

    Hello people, I am taking Diploma In Interior Design at Taylor’s University College, Lakeside Campus. Orientation is this week and class will officially starts on next Monday. I came last Friday to check in to my hostel which is pretty cool place located right in the campus. Small room but quite comfy. Will show you about it next time. I’ll talk about what I did here on last weekend which I spent it here with my family.

    We spent 3 days going here and there and I went quite a lot of places. I’ll name some of the places I went, Pavilion, Lot 10, Sungei Wang, Low Yat Plaza, Corus Hotel, Carrefour Subang Jaya, Sunway Pyramid, Taylor’s University College, Jalan Alor, Mid Valley City, and basically that’s all the places I went. Haha.


    Road to Taylor’s University College.

    Dad drove us down. We started our journey at about 10am in Penang and reached like at 3pm. First place to go was my school, Taylor’s University College to do the check-in stuff and move all my electronics, gadgets and stuff into my hostel room. Only then I went to buy some personal stuff at Carrefour, Subang Jaya.

    Waited quite long at the school and actually I was not allow to check in on that day because Friday was for International Student only. But then what’s the problem for local student? I called and asked and the person told me I could check in on that day and no saying on anything related to International Student, anyhow, I manage to convince the person to let me check in. I can’t leave there without checking in because I just have too many stuff in the car boot.

    After settle everything at Subang area, we went to check in our hotel at Corus Hotel, Jalan Ampang. An incident happened and that was our booking made online was canceled because we came to check in late. Internet price was not entitled and we have to paid for walk-in price, worst is that our booking made surcharged us for one night room charge as if we canceled our booking because late check-in. Not yet finish rambling, we were given a room on the smoking floor. Sucks. Bad luck har?

    Still continue, during our stay in the midnight, the aircon broke down for like 2 hours, the heat woke us up in the middle of the night and we had to call the hotel man to come and repair it. He screw and unscrew some stuff only then it started working again. Bad staying experience and after some complain made at the reception during check out, we get refund and extra free night for other time. Rocks. Haha.

    Going back to what happened after checkin into hotel, we went to fetch my brother at Times Square and then went for supper. The KL City is really a place that’s very happening at night. Traffic jam happened in the middle of the night like at 1am. Looking for parking around Jalan Alor was pretty difficult. We did find a space though. Why Jalan Alor? It’s because we didn’t know other place that has food at midnight. Any idea or recommendation?

    Another thing is that the arrival of my brother in Kuala Lumpur was also the arrival of my mighty Apple iPad. He bought it on the launch date which is that afternoon, and delivered to Kuala Lumpur to my hands. =D

    Red Lens!


    Branded camera bag!

    Brother also brought his camera gear and right now he’s pretty a photog freak and he has a better gear than me!

    Since we had an unpleasant stay, second day, check out! And move to other hotel. KL hotel is getting more and more expensive. Good hotel all starts from at least RM275. Hard to find cheaper than that already.

    It’s still early after checkout of hotel and we went to Pavilion at Bukit Bintang for shopping. It’s a better place to shop when compare to KLCC, more spacious, more shops, colder AC, cleaner, and newer. Haha. But stuff at there are expensive. I bought something at there though. XD

    I was walking around with brother. Dad was with mom. We were separated into our own groups. We more like to look at gadget and was looking for case for iPad. Went to all the Apple shop around this area and eventually, we went to Lot 10, Sungei Wang and Lowyat Plaza but found nothing. Went back to Epicenter at Pavilion to buy the iPad case. Not cheap!

    You know what. Epicentre is also where my iPad was from, not Kuala Lumpur’s outlet but was the outlet in ION@Orchard. Rocks.

    After Pavilion, we then went to checkin to another hotel at Mid Valley, Boulevard and that’s a better one, but the price was not nice. Haha. RM3hundred something. I’ve forgotten. Didn’t take much photo at Mid Valley and I bought nothing there. No idea why I have no shopping feel or I am broke. =( Mom bought those comforter and bed stuff for me at there.

    One thing, Mid Valley is crazy on the weekend. Jam at the carpark, round the mall and people jam in the mall! Super duper crowded and feel not nice to walk. Gurney Plaza in Penang is better? Hahaha. Bye bye.

    By the way, I am blogging from the Mac room in my school’s library. There’s like 25 27″ iMac in this room and they rocks! Internet speed is freaking fast too, just sad that cannot PPS or P2P.

  • Sushi Making and Donations

    Sushi Making and Donations

    I’m writing something very random. Two weekends ago, I went to kids sushi making class at Sushi King early in the morning. Not saying I learned nothing, I learned that vinegar must mix with sugar and salt before mixing into the Japanese rice. Haha. You can check out full writeup at my food blog.

    Then I found a very cool 20 dollars in Wallace wallet. I don’t know why a 20 dollars bill look so amazingly beautiful to me. It’s not the value, if you compare it with Euro or a British Pounds, I still like an american dollar bill. It rocks!

    HAHAHA, saw Caster and I was faking it. Flag day was really powerful, they even come rang my bell when I was at home.

  • Hard Rock Hotel And Beach With NS Friends

    Hard Rock Hotel And Beach With NS Friends

    This is part of my Penang trip with Hornet (the squadron I was in during National Service) NS friends. Many of them were not from Penang island so I was so glad to bring them around and this Hard Rock Hotel visit was during the last day of our 3 days Penang trip.

    Very surprise that Chuan, Khang and Weng who was from the mainland Penang didn’t know about Hard Rock, the name. They were pretty excited of visiting the hotel for the first time. This was not my first time, 2nd or 3rd already, but this should be my first proper visit with friends of that many people, and during the day time.

    No idea what event or gathering was there. There were so many BMW cars with Singapore’s plate at the hotel.

    It’s just like a museum or galleria full or artwork, artist’s costume, guitars and many many more. I like going there although I have already been there before, inside is really pretty and cool.

    For the first time, I went to the swimming pool area because normally it’s close during night time and there’s a saying that this is the longest swimming pool in Penang. And swimming in the pool need to have a tag on the wrist just like going to a theme park.

    So nice seeing the kids playing water, there’s slide too, which reminds me back when I was small and I so wish I could get into the pool at there. Before getting into the pool, I need to get a room there! You see, there’s room right in front of the swimming pool, damn cool man. It’s like can get into the pool anytime you want.

    It was almost sunset, but it’s very hot and I was sweating like crazy.

    Out of the pool is the beach. The beach is for everyone and it’s so happenings and so many people playing by the beach. Water sports, sand castle, swimming, horse riding, para sailing and so much more to play!

    I wanna try para sailing so badly, it seems like so fun to be in the air!

    We thought, why not our Penang trip’s accommodation be at Hard Rock Hotel? The simple reason, $! It’s expensive, and hopefully someone would sponsor me to stay at there, for a night or two. One night should be cool already. Hehe.

    Took many photos and Hard Rock Hotel rocks. I am still looking for Hard Rock’s t-shirt with Batu Ferringhi or Penang printed on it. Have anyone seen it at the night market already? I am so not going into the Hard Rock gift shop. Hehe.

  • St Anne’s Church At Bukit Mertajam Is Cool

    St Anne’s Church At Bukit Mertajam Is Cool

    IMG_5339 by nicholaschan.

    It’s a 20 minutes drive from Penang Bridge to reach St Anne’s Sanctuary or simply known as the St Anne’s Church. I have been hearing from people saying that this church is nice, this church is cool, this church is huge, this church is old and I only saw it from photos and finally I got a chance to visit it.

    Actually I have nothing to do in Penang, no school, no work, and so went visiting church. Haha. But I have a thing for holy places one because they are beautiful!

    IMG_5341 by nicholaschan.

    The afternoon was quiet. Probably there’s no service on that day and church is always open for prayers. Apologize first if I write something wrong because I don’t really know about Christian and church. =)

    IMG_5344 by nicholaschan.

    IMG_5343 by nicholaschan.

    IMG_5347 by nicholaschan. IMG_5349 by nicholaschan.

    At first glance, the place is huge! The little church standing above is not the main one, there’s even a bigger one at the other side and there’s like a place where we can up, like a little park on foot hill. I have no idea how to describe it. Haha.

    IMG_5351 by nicholaschan.

    IMG_5363 by nicholaschan.

    When I saw the place, I was like “Wow, there’s actually something like this.” Pretty cool, I never see churches that big before, it’s not like those western one with very awesome design, it’s pretty but not very complicated, but the whole place is huge, with trees and super mini hiking trail which I called.

    IMG_5364 by nicholaschan.

    It gave me a feeling of peacefulness and nature. Rocks.

    There’s the St. Anne’s Water. I want to ask what’s that? Is it holy water?

    IMG_5454 by nicholaschan.

    The church is huge! Next stop, we went to the Nine Emperor God Temple at Raja Uda, we almost lost while going there, so do come back and check it out soon. =) One more thing, they say it’s very happenings during St. Anne’s Annual Novena & Feast Day Celebration, from 23 July 2010 to 01 August 2010, it’s a day before I leave Penang, so maybe I could go check it out? =)

  • We Went to Bukit Mertajam

    We Went to Bukit Mertajam

    We went to Province Wellesley on Tuesday’s afternoon. Where’s Province Wellesley? It’s Seberang Perai, the mainland of Penang. =D It’s the English name, but to most Penang island people, I guess they would just call it Butterworth. My days in Penang still left not many days only and I am very free everyday, have nothing to do, it’s either spending time sleeping at home or going out to explore things that haven’t been explored.

    IMG_5327 by nicholaschan.

    Was on the phone with Sean last night and she talked about St. Anne’s Church which then gave me an idea where to go. =D I have wanted to go check it out a long time already as people told me it’s a very nice place and feel curious. I also have a thing for holy place, like temples, churches, they have nice architecture. =)

    IMG_5319 by nicholaschan.

    Yiphing. All  was like so busy.

    IMG_5325 by nicholaschan.

    It was on a road trip, there’s me, Chien Chern who was the driver, Yiphing and Tee Jin. Four of us only, many friends were in school or already leaved Penang. So sad.

    IMG_5330 by nicholaschan.

    We didn’t really know the place and how to go. I only checked it and mark it on Google Maps and the Google Maps brought us there. Sometimes must say hate Google Maps a bit because it will bring us to a rural place just to get away from toll and shortcut. But this trip to St Anne’s Church was safe. I’ll talk about it in another post as we eventually went into same kampung and paddy field while going to Nine Emperor God temple.

    IMG_5332 by nicholaschan.

    IMG_5335 by nicholaschan.

    Alright, Bukit Mertajam is where St Anne’s Church is and I always thought BM is near to Butterworth or Seberang Jaya or anywhere in Province Wellesley but actually they are not, they are far!

    IMG_5336 by nicholaschan.
    This building is like so creepy and fugly!

    First time coming here, there’s no high rise building, it’s all shop houses, bungalows, or the highest is like 3-4 floors. It’s a suburb and not a big town like us in Penang, and the road are small too.

    IMG_5337 by nicholaschan.

    Reached St Anne’s Church safely. Stay tune for next post! =)

  • My Aunty’s Gallstone Specimen

    My Aunty’s Gallstone Specimen

    Explicit content. =D Some may find the following image disgusting.

    IMG_4803 by nicholaschan

    My aunty were admitted into the hospital lately and hope that she’s doing well right now. She thought of having stomach problem but actually it’s the gallstone that’s troubling her and bringing her pain. Now she has no gall bladder, which is no good for the body. Anyway, get well soon and stay healthy, Aunt Patsy!

    IMG_4805 by nicholaschan.

    Imagine something really hard grow inside your body. It’s so OMG. Size of almost a golf ball and hard like a rock. WTF? How can something so hard grow in the body. It’s scary a big.

    Eat more fruits and exercise more to be healthy. Closer look after the break.
