The rollercoaster ride of happy and sadness has begun..

So i'm pretty much free the rest of the day.. I really miss the peck on the lips or on the cheek, and also the hugs.. A few more months to go..

Uni this semester will be a real challenge.. 4 units all have something which is 60% or higher.. EP has a 70% project, 2 have 70% final exams and the last one 60% exam.. OMG.. Why can't engineering have something that allows us to pass first like commerce or something but in the end when we do have something like that, there is also the fail component like you must get 35% from the final exam.. Engineering sometimes really SUCKS!!!

Another friend has graduated another friend has gone home.. Friends that i seem to build some kind of bonds with always seem to go home, but those that are a pain in the ass haven't left.. One and a half years more till i graduate.. At least i still have some people around in perth that i can call my friends and not some acquaintances whom i'll probably never ever contact once i don't see them.. Hopefully they don't all leave as quickly as well.. Sighz..

Till next time..

Just a few more days..

A few more days and i'll be going back to perth.. Saddening.. But what to do right? 1 and a 1/2 years more till freedom.. Hopefully nothing goes wrong and i will graduate.. I've already been studying for 2 freaking years.. Sooooo long..

Till next time..

Day 2 in Penang

My 2nd day in Penang and its been an awesome food adventure.. from waking up at 8 in the morning and going to eat Hokkien prawn mee to having wan ton mee, chee cheong fun, ondeh ondeh at one coffee shop and then just down the street stop to eat goreng pisang, chempedak and kuih ku doh or something like that..

Then travelling down to the Kek Lok Si temple where there was a huge kuan yin statue made out of bronze apparently.. It was quite a sight to see.. Spent like an hour or slightly more looking around and snapping photos.. It was a pretty hot day and after the breakfast that we had felt so lazy to move around.. HAHA.. But after coming down from the temple we went in search of the famous Penang Laksa in the area at the market, we found one and it was really crowded so we assumed that it was the one that we were looking for haha.. Sat down and initially ordered 2 bowls for the four of us, but when i tried the soup i knew i could order one for myself.. It was practically one of the best Penang Laksa's i've tasted.. After that we had muah chee and siew pao.. The siew pao was nice and hot when we ate it..

We then made our way down to Jalan Penang where we went to search for the famous Chendol which we were asking around since yesterday.. Today we asked an old man where the stall was, he told us the direction to walk and all that but later as he rode his bike further up, he stopped at the street where the chendol was and pointed to us where the stall was located at and guided us to the stall.. What an awesome Encik man.. The chendol stall is just a roadside stall where people stand around holding their bowls and finishing the chedul as its spelt here, filled with gula melaka, coconut milk, red beans, green worm like jelly and ice.. It was freaking awesome..

Then it was off to find the peranakan mansion.. We thought of taking the car down to the restored mansion but a lady heard us talking abt it and told us that it was nearby and we could walk there, but with the heat and the distance it wasn't a very good walk.. haha.. My feet ached and felt quite crappy after reaching there.. It wasn't all that great cuz the peranakan mansion though some parts authentic it wasn't very well planned out and was a slight disappointment.. We had to take a long walk back to the car then went to look for a place called Gurney drive.. Filled with all the hawker stalls it looked good from the outside, but hearing from a local friend we made our way to a more local spot called Jalan Macalister.. There we had lots and lots of food.. Curry mee, Char kway teow, Sting ray, O Luak, Chicken wings, Chye tau kueh, Cheng teng, and there might have been some more that i missed out.. BUT !!! It was an awesome food adventure.. Back to singapore tomorrow..

Till next time..

It was a good day..

It was a nice day today.. Woke up early today and i was supposed to go and run but.. I was lazy and didn't feel in the best of health to go and run.. But thats just an excuse.. Then had lunch and went to JB with yenlee and her sister.. Didn't do all that much except eat and just walk around.. The only thing i bought the whole day was a magazine.. lol..

Ever eaten an Auntie Annie's pretzel before? In singapore its costs like 3+ SGD? But in JB it cost 3.20 RM... OMG half the price for the same satisfaction.. LOL.. Then there was Seoul Garden for dinner.. Which was also just as cheap.. And lastly before we left we went to Secret recipe to eat some cakes and omg the Caramel Cheese cake was the bomb, not that sweet but just perfect and the cream cheese was awesome, the base had pecan nuts in it.. It was absolutely divine.. HAHA..

Till next time..

Bored and sick..

My throat has been killing me the day.. I feel so tired but i just can't sleep throughout the whole day.. Never felt this sick in such a long time.. All the germs from yenlee just as i came back and she was recovering.. So all that i've been doing the whole day is stone at home trying to recover from the really painful sore throat taking medication and trying to get as much shut eye even if i can't really sleep.. I also know i was just on the verge of being sick when you can feel the ache in the bones or joints.. It has been a really long day doing absolutely nothing..

Watching Avatar The Last Air Bender.. Only watching the cartoon now so that i know what the movie will be about.. hahaha.. but its been a pretty good cartoon so far.. Quite entertaining to watch, so hopefully the movie will be good based on the trailers so far =)

Gonna try and get some rest for the night.. Good night world..

Till next time..

Its the 1st of july..

The first of July...

The start of a new month and when my exam results will be coming out in about one and a half weeks time? I think.. But hopefully based on the thing where i can check the number of credit points at the parking permits i have already passed all my exams.. Just a matter of how well i will do only and with fingers crossed i can do well.. My most confident semester to date..

This has also probably been the best semester to date.. No more friends who forget i even exist.. Sad part is one of probably my best friends from University will be leaving cuz he has graduated and is leaving perth probably for good.. What a short but really really awesome time spent.. Thanks for the memories.. Hope there can be more in the future.. =)

Its so so so so good to be home.. There is Yenlee, family, food, durians and especially no worries of exams.. what more can a guy ask for right? I just recently played mahjong after such a loooong time.. And i ended up totally playing for fun no win no loses.. So sad man.. Family time has been good with all the makan sessions..

Till next time..
