  • Good Night – Miss Abu Maggi Mee

    Untitled

    Penang people sure know about this road, Jalan Datuk Koyah which become happenings at night when Abu Mamak Stall start operating. The springy Maggi instant noodle cook in a pan fried way, serving with an omelet and deep fried chicken, it’s just interesting and mouth watering to eat at late night even that eating at late night is not a good habit.

    At this moment, I misses the Maggi Goreng Ayam. HAHA. Good night. Where in KL can I find Abu-style Maggi Mee?

    Feel free to read my food blog (Shiok Or Not) when you are hungry!

  • Parking And Walk To Taylor’s On Wednesday

    This is quite a random post about what happened last Wednesday at Taylor’s University. Class was at in the middle of the day and I pretty hate it because of the hassle of looking for a parking spot in the campus.

    Parking in university is always not a good thing as there’s so many student and cars where parking spots are not able to accommodate everyone, especially when selfish people like me don’t want to park at the paid zone. Even if I am forced to park at the paid zone, it would be full.

    I parked far far away that afternoon, and took a nice walk about 400m to campus from car park. The weather was pretty cloudy and good. Wonder why it’s raining here so much, typhoon in Taiwan, hurricane in the USA and here we got the rainy days.

    I wonder why the school want to collect fee for student’s parking. Why is the fee we paid isn’t able to cover a parking spot, I wonder why. It’s ok to collect money for parking fare, but at least built us a proper parking area with a good covered walkway that protect us from the shines and rain. Then I will shut my mouth up. Imagine walking to and from the car in the midst of hot sun or a rainy day.


    Spotted an unknown lecturer got a surprise birthday wish from her friends. Pretty cool.

    The school is getting more and more commercialize which isn’t a good way of promoting education. That’s reality, that’s fact.

    One fact about Taylor’s University is that the traffic jam that occur around 4pm everyday. It’s the super big jam in campus, connecting out to the main road until the nearest traffic light. A normal good flow of traffic will takes about less than 10 minutes out but with a jam, do expect about half an hour.

    I have already accepted the shity rocky parking, finding a parking spot and walking towards class. That’s my college life. HA! Blablabla.

  • #instagram I Am Back

    Blogging on WordPress has caused me a few problems. It’s a good blogging platform when compare to the Blogspot Blogger engine, but I some times favor the Blogspot as it’s fast and easy to blog. I have been having problem with posting link and not auto-saving after updating my blog and finally I have found a solution.

    Tomorrow is Friday and it’s no-school day. Gonna do assignment, and check out some good food at Sunway Pyramid and also write my blog! So stay tune and good night. It’s so late. I always try to tell myself to sleep early, but I fail, all the time. =D

    By the way, do follow me on Instagram @nicholaschan. =) Have been addicted to this little application on the iPhone lately.

    Recording life here. I went to Muntri Mews to sit this (Wednesday) afternoon. – Good night for now. I am sleepy, it’s 1.40am to be exact. Feeling stressed and worried as new semester is coming soon! I am pushing myself forward more and more.

  • People’s Court At Sunset

    IMG_0483

    People’s Court is one of the oldest flat in Penang, located somewhere near Cintra Street and Campbell Street. It was a place where all people lived happily and a majority of Chinese living there. Until today, the flats are still there with shop lots surrounding the place and now mostly elderly or old Penangite lives at there.

    My family always loves to dine at the Chinese restaraunt, Boey Chong Kee which situated right below the People’s Court flat. =)

  • Photos Taken By Lumix LX5 At Panasonic Camera Booth

    Photos Taken By Lumix LX5 At Panasonic Camera Booth

    P1000100

    This is a actually a post filled with quite some random photos taken from the Panasonic Lumix LX5 at the Panasonic Camera Booth at Queensbay Mall which was basically where the play I was working temporary for the past 3 days. It’s a little Panasonic’s camera fair with a little booth there promoting Panasonic’s product.

    I was so bored with the camera as I felt the only thing I could do was shoot. There’s no GF2 for me to play, or even GF1, I tried all the compact camera and the best is still the Lumix LX5. =D

    P1000101

    I found one TZ20 which has super zoom and GPS but still not tempting cause there’s no F2.0 aperture, same goes to the super zoom semi pro FZ40 or FZ100. I only like 2 cameras by Panasonic and that’s LX5 and GF2. No more.

    P1000102

    No choice that I have to promote every product and played with every of it. Spending time at there to take random photos was how I passed my time. It got boring some times when there’s no people come and check out the booth.

    Saturday was a busy day for me and I hope that later today can be nice. =D

    Cameras are pretty cheap here with Panasonic Lumix LX5 selling at RM1550 which is about RM50 cheaper than what I bought back in KL last time. Cheapest model entry level camera starting at RM399 with further discount and free gift. It’s quite a good deal, serious.

    However, standing at there promoting was not a good job as I stand whole day, with perhaps sit for like less than 5 minutes in between and only sit during the break. HAHA. I have a pair of powerful legs now.

    Anyway, if you happen to read this blog, come drop by at Queensbay Mall, in front of McDonald’s to say hi or check out some camera. Cheer! =)

  • Rainig On Beach Street, George Town

    IMG_0104

    is just a random post about the rain during noon just now. It’s kinda nice to see the rain as the temperature have been warm and humid lately. The refreshing rain cool up the heat on the warm earth and brings a cooling effect to us.

    It’s just like you having a bath after a long workout. Somehow, raining is always not a good thing as it makes people troublesome, wearing a rain coat, carrying an umbrella.

    The motorcycle vendor has a big umbrella ever ready for his business. Thumbs up.

    Luckily, it was a short rain and it wasn’t that big! Hello! =) How are you guys doing?

  • Midnight See People Play Ice Hockey At Sunway Pyramid

    Midnight See People Play Ice Hockey At Sunway Pyramid

    On one fine midnight, after attending the Hennessy Artistry event at night, I saw people playing ice hockey at the ice skating ring in Sunway Pyramid. It’s pretty late at about 2am already, where all shops are already closed and extremely silent thoughout the mall, but the ring was noisy. Cheering and shouting from the team could be heard.

    Midnight is a good time to play ice hockey because they can book the whole ring. It’s pretty cool seeing people play in during the night as there’s no ice skating ring in my hometown, there’s actually one 12 years back (at Bukit Jambul Complex) but failed due to low reception.

    I salute them can run so fast on the ice because I can’t even skate. The pro part of all is that they never fell down. I couldn’t imagine myself playing this. Haha. If it’s a dry ground, without ice is OK, perhaps floorball or hockey. =D

    We didn’t know them and we just see. And our “see” already took us like half an hour. Hahaha. We really got nothing to do in the middle of the night. Cool eh, them. RANDOM.

  • Raining Cats And Dogs

    Raining Cats And Dogs

    3 days ago was very hot, it’s hot during the day and night. Luckily I have air-conditioned in the room. Some sort of hot and warm wind blowing around this area, Penang and Kuala Lumpur.

    2 days ago, finally, it rained. Rain brought water onto the earth, cooling all around, quenching thirst of the flowers and grass, greening the environment again.

    Yesterday was thundering, though it only happened in Penang, not Kuala Lumpur. I am waiting for the rain to come, then I can make myself a reason not to go anywhere, and sleep whole day long, enjoying the sound of the rain drops, tik tak tik tak.

    I think something is wrong with Mother Earth, tornado at USA, negative coldness at Melbourne, flood at Mississippi. What’s wrong? Doomsday? Yay, not.

  • Walking Around Level 4 of Taylor’s University Library

    Walking Around Level 4 of Taylor’s University Library

    I was doing some group discussion on an assignment in the library for few hours then I got bored. It’s not nice to stick an ass on the chair for few hours without moving around. Because of boredness, I took out my little handy Panasonic Lumix LX5 to go shoot around. I guess I’ll let the photos speak for now.

    It was evening time, nearing to sunset and there’s still many people in the library. Library is always a very cold place with very low temperature, moving around could warm me up a little bit too.

    I think the best part of Taylor’s University is the resources archive, the library because it has a very big collection of books for me to do reference. There’s no way that I can afford those design’s reference book.

    Another thing is I like the Internet, spending time in the library downloading huge files with the blazing fast Internet. =D Yum yum.

    And I’m writing this post from the library. =)
