A little update for this week..

June 12th, 2009

Kalau pemalas tu pemalas jugaklah kan? tongue hehe. Anyway, here’s some of the updates of what’s happening this week:

1) Got news that two of my brothers got the chance to go to UK for further study. University of Sheffield, I believe? Good news. And I got to be their guarantor for MARA scholarship they got. Don’t screw up! I don’t care if you just barely graduate, but ensure that you graduate and got the money to pay it back! LOL.

(Ye, aku berkira sekarang kalau pasal duit tongue)

Oh well, happy for you both brotha!

2) Being too happy is not good for you too, brother. He borrow the car and then scratch it to the walls! Damn! Longgar dah bumper depan tuh, macam perempuan yang sudah tak perawan. sad

Sigh. Got to bring it to the workshop to do alignment and balancing again before the Perhentian getaway.

3) Will be going to attend Bullah’s wedding at Kedah tomorrow. Driving courtesy of Enol. Yeah, my super-lazy-mode is on this week. Even driving is a hassle.

4) Skendelicious level = +1. No further comment required. Hehehehe tongue

The Weekend of Gluttony – Penang

June 3rd, 2009

It’s been a while since I write real blog entry, so this might sound a little bit… weird? Hopefully not tongue

*deep breathe…*

So last weekend I went to Penang for my friend’s wedding. Congratulations to Syuk and Mar for their absolutely gorgeous and fantastic wedding ceremony (siap ada DJ okeh! big grin dengan lagu2 jiwang permintaan Kasab… tahniah! anda memang romantik!) tongue

Our trip consists of two separate journey. The Spammers (Yong, Yoda, Iyayy, and Lan) started their journey a little bit late, while I join the #gurly group consists of Sue, Seren, and Munir. Eh? Munir?

(P/s: Welcome to the bimbo world of #gurly, Munir. LOL tongue)

My personal mission was to satisfy my gluttony with all kind of foods available only in Penang. Had it 90% fulfilled. Side quest: To eat nasi kandar – failed due to the lack of capacity in my stomach. Damn I used to be able to eat VERY heartily! *sigh*

Day #1:

The trip started on Saturday afternoon, and we arrive at the hotel on the late evening. After resting a while, we started on our first mission of gluttony: Fort Weld (or is it Padang Kota?)

Checklist of stuffs succesfully consume:

  • Pasembor Penang
  • Laksa Penang
  • Sotong Dua Rasa (which is actually a dried squid and a rojak squid. Damn Scam!)

After that meal, we go to Batu Feringhi where Sue decided to go for a little shopping. Being men, me and Munir go to the nearest restaurant (Restoran Lebanon, or in Arabic – “Mat’amul Lubnanwinking. No, seriously, there are Arabic calligraphies in that restaurant. Reminds me back to the high school time when I got a chance to learn Arabic tongue

We go for a little smoke and shisha. While we were there, the second trip (the Spammers) just arrived and they went straight to Gurney. And we continue our chilling. We are so full at that time that we decided not to go for Nasi Kandar for supper after that. *sigh* (now I’m regretting it).

End of day #1. Gluttony mission: 70% success!

Some pitcah!

laksa

Laksa Penang, before being eaten. Seriously, the taste is different when its being eaten at Penang. Or is it just me? Delusion?

pasembor

Pasembor Penang. Believe me, this was halfway of our eating. It started really, really.. in BIG quantity.
