Hatyai, Thailand

After 1day back from KL, I managed to go Thailand with sister. Too bad too rush for us to go Bangkok so we cancel it. We spent halfday in Hatyai. Sister drove in to Kedah to pass the imigresen station. Take taxi entered Thailand. We bought a lot of things there as we knew it's much cheaper than Malaysia :D all makan makan things.. Photos time :

Took a photo on the way to Thailand. It was 6am early in the morning. Sky was dark.

Market in Hatyai. I'm not good in taking photo. Cacat but got 人情味 right ? :P

Turn Left with Care :D Photo taken when I gonna crossed the road to Robinson Shopping Centre.

This called ''Tuk tuk''. You can see tuk tuk around everywhere. Even after you came out from any places, sure got people asked you wanna sit tuk tuk not. RM20 per person. This is my first time sitting tuk tuk there. Quite fun but dangerous.


The market. We bought many things from here. For examples the chinese words in the photo are the things we bought.

One of the memorable thing when sitting inside tuk tuk is the car is nearly bang us. See how near is this car followed us.

Durians :D Hoho!




Tuk tuk,

We had our lunch here. The fried rice was like....errr..maybe I can't get used of their food. Don't know how to describe. A weird smell. But ok la..I finished half of a plate.

Food stalls everywhere. 

Finally we got home in the evening, tired but worth. I love travelling. Hope I can bring parents go to China, I knew this is what my dad wanted before he leaves us. I wonder how many years only I can travel in Paris, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and many places. I must earn a lot of money. My aim, buy a house first around 30yrs old. The price of houses in Penang are TERRIBLE. Can't imagine how much is an apartment costs after a few years. Anyway, study hard first. Hope I have a better 2013 !

KL trip

Finally I'm free to blog bout my kl trip with 2 kids on 14th December. What would I said is damn tired to be a babysitter. We stayed in The Curve Hotel which is located at Damansara that area. That's just a short trip that we spent 2 day 1 night there. The purpose is my bro-in-law attended golf tournament game in Kl so we just followed and went to Kidzania and Ikea to have fun and shop. Too bad I forget to bring my camera there so many photos taken in Kidzania  saved in another camera which not belongs to me. I just take few photos with cellphone.

The view on Saturday morning. Woke up at 7smtg.
Spent RM35++ per person just to play ''cooking'' stuff inside Kidzania :(
I'm adult. Need to pay to enter there but just children are allowed to use the facilities inside.

Santa Claus Deco of lobby in The Curve Hotel . With my beloved nephew. Photo taken at the night we checked in.
Sit like a boss.

Christmas tree. Nephew, niece and eldest sister :)
After we're back to Penang, we went to Seberang Perai to have Crab Rice. Too busy to take care of babies in KL till I reached home. So unable to take photo. The Crab is so famous and so delicious. It's so tasty <3 :=":" a="a" br="br" day="day" have="have" nice="nice">

Penang Wall Mural ♥

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to my Muslim friends and HAppy Holidays everyone :D !
Before the holidays, my friends and I were planning on going to Heritage areas to see the wall mural and have a small gathering with the friends came back to Penang during their sem-break. Unfortunately many of them couldn't make it so just 4 of us with kong's sister went there.

18th August, Saturday morning. I was driving alone to fetch Hooi Ping from her house then all of us met at Chew Jetty. As a penangite, I failed as I not really know all the places in Penang and my super terrible driving skills. Luckily there was a small parking lot for me to park my car and we walked to several streets to see the paintings.We went to Georgetown areas to have a look on the several mural paintings done by Ernest Zacharevic, his drawings suddenly became a famous public figure.

Have a look at this signboard.. ICE KACANG PUPPY LOVE ♥ I like the song in the movie directed by ''AH NIU"".



My friends and I took some photos here.

    CHEW JETTY- in itself is a beautiful place, arguably one of the most photogenic places in Penang.

We explored and walked till the end of the path to see the panoramic view of the mainland. Fortunately the young generations are still able to see Penang's most simple and natural living lifestyles.


 We took several photos here. Seriously I attracted by the scenery of Chew Jetty. I felt that it has the ''kampung'' feel. When I was sitting there and looked at the boats, I was thinking of my childhood time. The view of my maternal grandmother's village in Seberang Perai. Although I'm not close with my grandma but I felt quite sad when she passed away at my age of 7 because of Stroke.


ARMENIAN STREET - Boy and girl riding on the bicycle :)
 I think it's the most popular among all the wall murals. I remembered I saw an article before said that this is a true story of a sister and brother. Nowadays, we seldom see children ride on a bicycle in a big city. I think this painting make everyone recall back their own childhood memories , the pure feeling.

Saw Jin and I took photo separately with the boy and girl. 
 
CANNON STREET - '' Reaching up ''
After that, we walked to Cannon Street to find this cute little boy. ''Reaching up''. What comes up in your mind when you look at this painting? For me, I did this kind of stuff when I was 5yr old I think. My family was so poor during that time. We lived in a small house and I'm a mischievous girl so I always put on a chair and tried to spy my sisters what they do at home and when they went out, I keep on jumping on their beds and tear their books..etc...xD

4 of us. Wow..I'm 18 now. Time passed quickly and quietly. 



LEBUH AH QUEE- Boy riding on a motorbike.


I have the courage to sit on this motorbike because it's not moving :D I always scream like hell when I sit on a motorbike.

Little boy's pulling the Dino.
Saw Jin and I. Omg I looked like a blind person with the sunglasses and black in colour umbrella!
Acting and posing in front of the wall paintings. We also took a photo with TRISHAW.

Photos of the day. The paintings had tapped deep into the minds of Penangite and visitors, provoking a fascinating and creative response. We're proud of Penang, the small island ♥


STRAITS QUAY - DOME
 After we spent 2 hours there, we moved on to Straits Quay. I've been there before but I never drive there. Traffic jam for awhile at Gurney there. We had our lunch at Dome. I ordered my favorite chicken pie although it's costly. We spent RM163 for our lunch there. I took several photos with them.



 After lunch, we decided to have a walk. The gentle breeze blow on our faces, cool man. I can see our smiley faces on the first photo. This is my moment, our happy moments ♥


 Letter of the day ♥
--  LAI HOON --
Thank you for guiding us on that day. We won't laugh and had fun without your presence. You're really an independent girl. Although we're not close enough, but to me you're a great friend. A great CC president and a hardworking student. A girl who loves sailing is the happiest girl in this world :) 


-- HOOI PING --
This girl, everyone keep saying we're TWINS. I couldn't understand why..? Even my sisters also said we look alike. I think maybe is the spectacles's effects. haha! Hooi Ping is a fair lady, super like her skin complexion. This girl, she's getting more important in my heart ♥ She's the one who always encourage me in my current life. I don't have much close friends from Union are in the same school with me now. She's the one who always rescue me when I hyperventilate in school. 2 times in Union and 1 time in St.georges. Although we're not in the same class, I hope she can achieve her goals, become a successful Accountant next time. BFF ♥ 

-- SAW JIN --
Saw Jin, I called her ''Ah ma'' in form 5. A very good friend and teacher. A girl who always got excellent results with good attitude towards her studies. What I want to say is thank you.  I knew that you was so tired but you're still willing to meet up with us on Saturday. I hope that you can get used to your current life in Kampar. Don't be too stress on your studies, you're able to do well on it. After I read your blog, you seems like so fed up with your coursemate. I dislike this type of person too. It's not worth to sacrifice your time to get angry with the person. Remember, stay happy and healthy, take care yourself. Hope to see you soon after I finish my STPM in November. Keep going ♥ !!!! Ah Beh always be here for you.



Lesson of the day : 朋友是一辈子,情人却是一阵子. I don't know why suddenly this sentence pop-out in my mind when I was going to sleep that night. Not much different in this holidays, I gonna be the babysitter again. 
Besides, I need to put full concentration on my studies especially Economics, I understand but couldn't answer the question based on what my sir wants. Practice make perfect. Many things to do in this holidays. 
Study study and study everyday !! STPM is not a game,we need to face it 3 times. spm is just a small peanut compared to stpm, means that I must sacrifice more on it. I wanna prove to my family that I'm able to get into University too.

Singapore

I went to Singapore with Georgians on 19th July and we spent six days there.
Seriously, it was a BEST trip I ever had with my friends.
There's no gap between the 14yrs old girls and me this 18yr old aunty.

The main purpose we went to Singapore is to attend MGS Regional Conference.
Its bout the ethical issues, including Bioethics, War Ethics and Biodiversity.
We stayed back in school every week to prepare the things for workshop and cultural dance performance before the trip in order to do our best.

The first day, we depart from school around 7smtg and reached Singapore at 8pm.
I remembered all of us was so tired and hungry while the drivers were searching for the location of Bunc Hostel. We had our first dinner there at 10smtg.It was so tired to take bus to Singapore but not flight. But it's okay, school sponsored us a lot of things and I just spent not more than 40dollar there. I don't believe..
 
Penang Bridge. Heading to Singapore :)


  


The next morning, 20th July. We woke up at 4am. I like the bed, so soft :).
We took photos before we went to MGS Singapore.
Group photo :)
This is 1 Malaysia. Malays, Chinese & Indians.
After that, they told us the bus break down so we need to take taxi to MGS.
I felt like sitting the roller coaster inside the taxi :D
After the cultural dance performance, we went to Singapore Flyer.


Marina Bay :)

The church in MGS :)



21st July, the third day. I really love the learning journey, we had fun for the whole day.
I choose the topic Bioethics so I'm in Group 16. I get to know new friends from different countries.
We went to Science Centre and discussions bout the Organ Transplant issues.


Friends from other countries.

Our group leaders :) 



We had a beautiful closing ceremony of the Conference. We went to Chinatown after the Conference at night.
It was so TIRED . The Chinatown make me feel so chinese..haha..


Day 4-We enjoyed every moments we spent in Sentosa. The Luge, Skyride, Songs of the Sea, Siloso Beach and so on...This is also my second day I hangout without my spectacle in Singapore..See things a little bit blur, maybe I still can't get used to it yet.
Universal Studio :)


Florence and I. She's a very nice person. A cute form 2girl.

Siloso Beach. I had a great time here.

Day 5 -  MGS 125th Anniversary. I was sick and suffered during the whole morning. I felt better after I had my lunch and rest in hostel afterwards. They went to Mustafa and Little India until so late. We watched movie in Ladies Lounge but I fall asleep :D

Lingesh and I.

Ladies Lounge. 

 Day 6

Last picture we took in Bunc Hostel. Thumbs up for this good services hostels:)

We reached school at 630pm. SGGS :)

I miss all of them, so I decided to make a very simple video. At least I can keep those great memories in deep of my heart. Life wouldn't be complete without their present. I don't believe that I can be so close to these crazy friends. Seriously before the trip,  I was thinking omg I'm the only chinese girl as a sixth former...and I don't really have indian or malay friends before as I was studying in chinese school for the past 13years..but now I'm okay with everything..no matter indians or malay or chinese, they're all my friends. I miss em so much!




Thank you all for everything :)
