Christmas 09 at Jelutong Night Market

I know it’s already 2010 but I still have so many things to share with you guys in 2009 man. Back to Christmas Day 09, it’s pretty lame and spontaneous day, but yet fun and interesting. No sense of direction and plans to go and ended up at a night market at night.

I thought after going to Nautilus Bay, Gertak Sanggul, dropped Chaiwei home then I will be home, only then I realized that that day was Friday and there’s night market on every Friday night, so last minute decided to go take a tour and dinner at the night market.

We were there early, so we went to Yiphing‘s place for a sit first before the night falls and the night market starts. Talked and prank called Chien Chern before going to the night market, pretty lame.

It’s very happenings, very crowded on a Christmas night, but then the walk way is very narrow and I don’t like. Feels like pushing all the way and keep moving on, hard to stop by and see something. Perhaps Farlim’s night market is funner, but then I still like happening place.

It’s always the same thing, clothing, junk food, hawker food, accessories but no pirated DVDs.

Met Andy and Ammerlynn at the night market, they joined us for Hokkien noodle and Char Koay Kak which I think they’re so-so only, I know better one at other place.

Then try to camwhore a bit but always failed and took a lot of shot. The whole night street, it’s just keep flashing, flashing and flashing, everyone was like looking at us and I didn’t care and we were in the middle of the road. LOL.

Take 1: Failed, because no Chai Wei.

Take 2: Failed, because Chai Wei’s face was too big and Andy was out.

Take 3: Failed, because Chai Wei didn’t look at the lens.

Take 4: Failed because Andy out of focus a bit and Chai Wei was out again.

Take 6: Passed (a bit). ALL IN!

Happy new year. Haha

Back to Chung Ling High School 2010

On the first day of school, everyone went back to school, I have graduated from high school and I have got no school to go right now. But on that day, I also went back to school too! I actually went to collect my graduation certificates and my result slips, then in the mean time, had some canteen food and say hi to some junior of mine.

Prefects love to spot check pockets because want to check for hidden takeaway food. Boo.

The days at school were so fun. You can check out all about my past high school life in this blog. Who says schooling sucks, I kinda like it and now I miss it quite a lot. High school to me is like a fun playground, everyday go to school talk and play with everyone, include teachers. Learning is just only a very little part of it, playing and enjoying school and friends are the best part. That’s why I love it so much.

Only sad thing is have to wake up early in the morning and study very very very very hard like a rock for exams. The process of exam does not sucks but the time before exam sucks a lot.

Went back to school with the same gang. They went there for canteen food actually.

Prefect, still that unfriendly face. Why?

No matter how much I miss the school, I still have to say bye bye because life move on now. I can still go back occasionally for canteen food and to say hi. But I guess this won’t last long because I don’t really know much young junior at there. People keeps getting older.

We also went to the counseling room to chit chat with the teachers. They seemed to be free and very happy to talk with us. I wanted to ask about study but too many people already and so we had to make appointment.

Went back home before school dismiss to prevent traffic jam. Yeah.

Back From Hospital 2 Days Ago, SUCKS

Two day Thailand trip, a lot of Thai spicy and sour and delicious food, many tomyam and seafood, then I fell sicked. Life sucks man. It’s not just sick, it’s very sick until I have to suffer in the hospital. I came back home with a fever, took paracetamol, went to bed then wake up still hot. Then I rested whole day at home and it got even hotter at night and as high as 39 degree cel and I had to go to the hospital, I was afraid of dengue or H1N1.

So sad that they admitted me in. I had not only fever but also diarrhea. I suspected food poisoning but doctor never mentioned a word about food poisoning.

One night passed, body cool down but still abnormal and that’s really WTF and FML because doctor wanted me to stay for another night in the hospital to monitor. Hate it so much. It’s so boring, and not comfortable with the pack of glucose going into a needle into my blood, the not-nice-sleep at night, the lousy food, the lousy Internet connection and the small TV. Bad bad bad.

Mom brought me the laptop but only get to go online for a while because the Internet connection very lousy. Always disconnected one and need to wait a while only can reconnect again.

Anyway, still have to thanks Yiphing, Arron, Chien Chern, Tee Jin, Alvin, Wei Chung, Yong Chieh and Fang Juinn came to find me and talk or else I will be bored till knock on the wall. Time passes very slowly at there, you can’t imagine how slow it is.

I also want to thank my daddy and mommy keep on coming by too, else I will be so lonely. Hehe.

On the second night, I keep on praying that my shit turn saturated and no more hotness for my body. I want saturated shit and no more diarrhea, it’s really suck if it continues. Luckily, everything turned good in the next morning.

The only thing was I didn’t really got a good night sleep. I slept pretty late because I couldn’t fell asleep and the stupid nurse wake me up at 7.30am and asked me not to sleep, saying the doctor will be here soon. WTF, the doctor only came by at around 10am. So shit man.

Doctor discharged me and I need to wait for the bill and medication for another 2 hours in the hospital room. Bored till……. I am so fine now and I advise you to take care of yourself, everyone. =) Hospital sucks.

Went to AEON Jusco Seberang Prai City

AEON Jusco Seberang Prai City is actually a shopping mall on the mainland of Penang. I think it’s pretty new, like opened few years back only and it’s big. Always wanted to go check it out but didn’t really get a chance, dad always forgotten to bring us go so this time I went with Alvin, Arron, Chien Chern and Tee Jin while we were at Butterworth during the holidays.

I actually accompanied them to check out a job interview. Then after the job thing, we got no where to go, so we hop on one of the Rapid Penang bus which took us to the AEON Jusco Seberang Prai City mall.

I’ve forgotten to note the bus number but it’s pretty easy to get on. At the Penang Sentral, also the bus terminal on the mainland, just check out bus that has place list with Jusco and that’s it. Get on for almost a 45 minutes trip to reach there.

Nice building. What’s that?

Not near, it’s pretty far, but I believe you can reach faster if you drive there. Consult Google Maps on how-to. That’s what I always do. While on the bus, we passed a lot of kampungs, small padi fields, a lot of trees and many unknown sub-urban place.

We saw the AEON mall in sight and press for bell to alight. The mall is almost the same like the one that I’ve visited in Johor Bahru, the AEON Jusco Tebrau City.

It’s long inside, shop lots are big, they keep on saying it’s like Queensbay Mall and there’s only 3 floors with quite many standard shops too.

LOLs.

The place is not bad, quite standard but something very scary is that it’s so quiet when we were there. It’s like one of the weekday in December and there’s only little little people. This place is built in a very ulu (suburban) place and nobody comes on weekday. Deserted a bit already.

After having afternoon tea slash lunch at there, we went out to find bus and go back to the ferry terminal. There’s food outlet there, but all expensive expensive and we were budget eater, so forced to eat at their food court, just same like the other Jusco food court like at Queensbay Mall.

Took the ferry back to Penang island. Island sweet island. ^^

Found Beng Tian at a Computer Store

Still remember Beng Tian? If you do read my blog from long ago, like since when I was Form 4, you will always see this person appear in my blog post. He is Beng Tian. Few days ago, I found him working at a computer store at Midland Park.

Don’t you think the uniform is very LOL?

Ferry Ride to Butterworth with Friends

During the holiday, I went to Butterworth with a few friends via the ferry instead of using the Penang’s Bridge. I don’t really always go to the mainland of Penang, it’s mostly factories at there, so nothing much for me to go over there. I tend to stick to the island more. However, that day was different, my friend went there to interview for a job and I followed along just for fun.

New place in town, Bar 36 The Social Club.

We parked our car at the parking lot near the ferry terminal and then went to the ferry. The parking was RM3 for half day and the ferry ride was free for going to the mainland. Ferry ride coming to the island need to pay though.

The weather on that day was pretty nice, not very sunny, a little bit cloudy.

Quiet ferry.

Saw a Star Cruise Virgo cruise ship near Swettenham Pier. Wish I can get on a cruise some days.

It’s very windy on the ferry. No idea how fast it’s moving on the sea, but I know it’s fast.

Many giraffe at the back.

We went there, looked for the job interview then took the bus to inner mainland to the AEON Jusco Seberang Jaya shopping mall to take a look. Then we went back to the ferry terminal before sunset. It’s so convenient.

No Touch N’ Go. It’s very manual, only accept coin and it’s RM1.60 for the trip back.

Alvin.

It’s us.

KOMTAR and George Town city!

Car deck.

Remember this photo?

Quite fun, pun. ^.^

Christmas Day 09 to Gertak Sanggul, Teluk Kumbar

Continued from previous post where I talk about going to the Jelutong seafront promenade, after that I thought of going to Queensbay Mall but I didn’t know what to do at there. I believe there sure will be many people too because it’s a public holiday, so we went somewhere else where we haven’t been to before.

It’s around 4pm, afternoon tea time, we went to the food stall at the market near to Sunshine Square at Bayan Lepas to eat our afternoon tea. I had a bowl of laksa there and they ordered themselves a bowl of tomyam noodle.

After tea time, there’s 2 lame ideas for next destination, one is Auto City and another is Gertak Sanggul, Teluk Kumbar. I didn’t feel like going to Auto City because I was there 3 days before Christmas so we went driving up to Gertak Sanggul for fun, pointless, it’s just driving.

Was thinking to check out the beach or something near to the sea but found out that there’s a bridge which connected out to the sea, and the bridge is broken and not usable. Too bad.

We were at the seaside in Jelutong and we were at the seaside again at Teluk Kumbar. I don’t know this place is Gertak Sanggul or Teluk Kumbar. I like to call it Teluk Kumbar more, so any idea, precisely, this place is Gertak Sanggul or Teluk Kumbar? I think is somewhere between Gertak Sanggul and Teluk Kumbar.

There’s sea, a good spot for sunset but we were early and we were so far away from sunset yet, like 1 hour more till sunset, moreover it was drizzling a little bit.

Broken bridge.

We then take photos again, the 3 of us. Hahaha.

It started to rain a little bit and we ran away from there. Since there’s no bridge, there’s no beach, nothing much to see, we went to other place again. Christmas Day 09 haven’t end yet!

Christmas Day 09 at Jelutong Seafront Promenade, Nautilus Bay

Last year’s Christmas Day was special and very spontaneous. I woke up in mid morning and I have nothing to do, just surf the net and watch the TV. Initially, I thought of going to Penang Times Square at around 2pm after lunch to check out the Leo Club’s activity.

I went to find Chen Yuen and Chai Wei to go along, and when we were at Penang Times Square, there’s a long queue for carpark, which made me change my mind not to go there. I hate waiting for car park, it’s very very long.

We then spontaneously think of a place to go. The first stop was the Jelutong Seafront Promenade at Nautilus Bay, very unfamiliar name. I found this name on Google. =) It’s the seafront promenade at Bandar Sri Pinang, the four pillars standing high are the place’s sign.

We actually went there just for fun. No idea where to go and it’s not planned. Just got down, walked and took photos for a while then we hopped back on to the car and go to somewhere else.

The afternoon was pretty hot but the place was very windy because it’s seaside, though we didn’t stay long at there.

Chai Wei.

Chen Yuen.

There’s people fishing.

Nice view of the Penang’s Bridge.

I have got Christmas hat and I wore it the whole day! I realized most people here wear the Christmas hat on Christmas eve only, why so little people wear on Christmas Day?

Farewell for Liang Sun Who Goes To National Service

Liang Sun, a friend, a classmate of mine has went to the National Service for 3 months, he departed today to the camp at Sungai Bakap in Bukit Mertajam. He will be gone for 3 months and they had farewell dinner for him at Queensbay the night before.

To tell you guys a secret, I have been chosen for National Service too, but then I am not allocated in the first batch and I don’t know is there will be any circumstances preventing me to go for the National Service or not. I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know.

I had my dinner before I went to Queensbay Mall because I know all the restaurant in Queensbay Malll are not budget restaurant and I am on tight budget recently because of jobless and less allowance and no schooling.

So basically it’s just everyone come out together, they eat, we talk and I take photos. =) Nothing much, just to say bye bye. I can’t imagine if I leave my friends and family, it will be very very very the sad I guess.

National Service need to have a bald head, so Liang Sun was prepared for it. Some people prefer to have their hair cut at the camp.

See you Liang Sun in 3 months time, perhaps during homecoming when Chinese New Year!

Ok, good night for now.

Red Box Karaoke Right After Last Paper of SPM 2009

Yes yes, it’s again, we went to Red Box karaoke after the last paper of SPM examination of 2009. That’s what I usually do after finishing a school examination. This is a very standard stuff and why Red Box? Because in Penang, there’s only Red Box karaoke and I just get to know that Neway Karaoke will be opening soon at Queensbay Mall soon.

Jing Min playing with the Red Box people.

Our Chinese paper finished at 12.45pm that day, I went home to bath and got ready, then to Red Box with everyone. We were not the first SPM finisher, because fifth former who didn’t take Chinese paper had finished their SPM earlier.

Yiphing Dot Net.

Chai Wei, Vivian, Shan and Sheue Yen.

We have got the biggest room in Red Box which can have up to 20-25 people in the room and we have only got like 13 people.

Lek Jian, Me, Theresa, Hui Mei, Liang Sun.

It’s not only us that went to Red Box, many people went there too on that day and I believe most of them are same like me, just finished their SPM, taking a break.

Priscilla.

It’s not too many people in the room, it’s too many people came to Red Box on that day, people came in and our, “hi and bye”, very hard to communicate and interact with everyone.

Lek Jian, Valen, Jia Wei, Yi Jun and me.

Most important are still did I sing or not? Yes I did and enjoyed the singing, a lot. The Penang’s Plurkers had a room there too, I went there to say hi, sang a few songs and went back to my place. Hard to be at multiplace. I wish I can divide my body. Haha.

Zi Wei.

Simon, Arron with the his crazy pose and Edmund.

Zez and Vivian.

Shan Shan.

Chai Wei and Ammerlynn.

Janice.

Wei Chung and Sheue Yen.

Karaoke finished, I went home. Marked the end of SPM, the end of Form 5 life. That’s fast.
