Great news!
Star Pisces will be here in Penang until end of December this year due to overwhelming response!
How I know about it?
Because I’ve asked them and they said yes, until end of this year.
So those wanted to go but couldn’t find a time off on the first half of year, you can now plan one for the second half of the year. 
Those interested, call 03-23021288 from 9am-6pm. No, I’m not an agent for Star Cruise nor promoting on their behalf. I’m just spreading this joyous news to the rest!
A rather unpleasant encounter happened to me while I was checking out one of the booths at the Food Fair in PISA. At the one that gives away FREE Super Pages.
Mum told me to get one (since it’s free) for dad’s company. So I went over and asked for one. Here’s the conversation between me and the lady there.
Me : Hi, how to get one?
Her : I just need a business card.
Me : But I didn’t bring. (Why would I bring out my dad’s business card? -.-” )
Her : Oh, nevermind. You can fill in the form here.
So I took one and wrote down dad company’s details but stopped at the part where it requires the telephone number and fax. Somehow I can’t seem to remember the office’s numbers, so I asked mum about it. The lady heard me asking my mum on the number, and sort of giving some shocked+discomfort face.
One of the night during Chinese New Year, my family and I happened to drop by a temple in Armenian Street. I rarely go praying around in island, so I don’t really know much about the temples there unless it’s the super famous and prominent ones – like Kek Lok Si and Kuan Yin Teng. But somehow fate brought us there that night.
Apparently Hock Teik Cheng Sin Temple is famous in giving ‘numbers’!
While dad prayed to the deities in the temples, I took the opportunity to take pictures of the surrounding using my Olympus miu! No, I didn’t bring my DSLR out that day. Lol.
A month ago, Sat came back and we went out celebrating his birthday on the day he born! Haha.
The day started out with him picking me out from my house and headed over to cinema to catch a movie. We don’t have the privilege of doing so daily or weekly like other couples since we’re in LDR so to watch movie on his birthday is not a norm. Lol. After that I forced Sat to drive all the way up to Batu Ferringhi, and only instructed him to search for parking lot when I saw the signboard since I don’t really know the place. I only read the review on the restaurant few days before and I forgot to get the GPS coordinates to punch in his iPhone like what he did to me on my birthday two years ago. Haha.
We were greeted upon walking in and were asked if we’ve made reservation (which I replied No) and again asked if we would prefer to sit inside or outside.
Since the day looked lovely (at 6 something in the afternoon), I chose the garden and were led to a table near the artificial waterfall. The waitress came back with menu and then left – giving us time to look at their menu. I flipped around, and couldn’t decide on what to order.
Sat then suggested to try their sets. Since the celebration is for his birthday, I let him decides. The waitress came back to us and Sat did all the ordering while I was busy snapping around with my Olympus miu! Hoho
On the 8th day of CNY, my family and I decided to head over to Penang island for the Jade Emperor Day festival at Chew Jetty. Before that we went over to Kek Lok Si first, after being persuaded by our neighbour on how beautiful the temple is with all the lanterns lit up at night.
At about 11pm, we descended from Kek Lok Si and made our way to Chew Jetty. We passed by the Komtar Walk.
By the time we reached Chew Jetty, that place was already crowded and we couldn’t find proper place to park our car! Since everyone did illegal parking and the polizisten were nowhere to be seen, so yeah. Hehe.
We then walked to the main area since we parked quite far away and along the way we could hear firecrackers loudly and big thick smokes came over to blanket us.
We stopped for a while to let the firecracker explode and when it stopped, we scurried over to the other side after realising that the firecracker didn’t finish exploding yet! It was super duper long!
