Penang...

Just two days after my semester ended, I had to rush to Penang pulak >.< Didn't pack until Saturday night... Just grabbed a few pants and T-shirts and stuffed them into my bag... So the next morning, we woke up at 4am!!! After having 3 hours of sleep, we started our journey with me as the driver... ^.^ This was my first time driving out station... Quite excited about it... Hehe... On our way to the PLUS highway, we kindda got lost and headed North using the old road... Went pass some small town, Kuala Kubu Baru (my initial NS camp) and Sabak Bernam before we finally reached the PLUS highway... We got to enjoy the scenery though and not to mention sunrise as well =) About 7 hours later, we finally reached Penang!!! If it wasn't due to some car problem, we could have reached there earlier... Anyway the most important thing was that all of us are in safe condition, no broken bones or whatsoever... We had to go round and round the bridge area because my mom couldn't recognise the roads anymore... After a good 3 or 4 years, the roads changed alot. Two things I don't really like about Penang roads are that most of them are one-way... Once you turn into the wrong junction, cannot U-turn ad... and there are quite alot of motorcyclist in Penang!!! Had to be very careful...

So......

1st day
arrived at granny's house in the afternoon... then I slept through the whole evening due to only 3 hours of sleep the previous night...
went for supper... tried "ho jian"... super nice ^.^ its now my favourite Penang food...

2nd day
went to eat dim sum with Uncle Mano (Mum's old friend) in the morning --> NICE~~~
practically sleep through the whole afternoon again... hehehehe
makan "ho jian" again...
overnight in Uncle Jimmy's house (Mum's bro)...

3rd day
wasn't feeling too well... feel a bit feverish... mum said I ate too much fried food especially "ho jian" T.T so just lay around the whole day and tried to drink as much water possible...
went to exercise in the park... actually just fooling around with the facilities there...

4th day
went to swimming in the morning with cousins... ^^ since nobody brought goggles, we ended up splashing water with each other...
aunt brought us to Queens Bay Mall... it was super big almost as big as IKANO... I super heart the padini concept store there =) There were discount everywhere!!!
went out for dinner in a restaurant (its Christmas Eve!) cousins brought a christmas cake and the tauke there thought it was somebody's birthday and played birthday song CD... everyone was blurred and kept asking whose birthday was it... lolx

5th day
time to go home...
went for breakfast in the morning market...
I tried the mee jawa... initially it was nice but then it started to taste like detergent powder... *yucks* I suspect its either they didn't waste the plate properly or the mee was contaminated by the powder... Haiyo no QC at all!!! what a bad experience to bring home >.<
anyway, reached home around 3pm because we somehow got lost and took the long way back =.=" super tired!!!

so basically what I did in Penang were EAT. SLEEP. EAT.SLEEP. Eat until my waistline hilang ad T.T

P/S: MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!
