Two Hundred and Eighty Four

WARNING. Long seriously wordy post ahead! Roflmao. LOL
Even me myself can't stand reading the whole post one shot =\
That bad you know.

It is just the plain sum up of my vacation trip to Penang Island on November 2010.

Day #1
My family and I woke up around 6 then left home about 7 in the morning. I drove my daddy's Sentra for 2 hour, dropped by Ipoh on the way to the island. We tried Onn Kee Ipoh chicken rice but it isn't as good as we had in mind =\
Then, continue our journey for the remaining 3 hours to the island. We reached our hotel around 3+ in the afternoon. Thank God we got a joining room but not furnish, we don't care. The Sun is blazing hot ):
P.S. I've forgotten what we ate for dinner that day. Sorry! blame my Short Term Memory Lost- stml :P

Day #2
Woppss. My little bro told me that he is in a relationship with TWO girls at once. He promised to tell me more tomorrow when we're away from our parents' during outing with Daryl at Gurney Plaza.
According to plan, We went to Balik Pulau for Asam Laksa. On the way, we dropped by beach sides, Batu Feringgi, one of the Penang Island tourist attractions to take a few shots with my little brother's DSLR. Then, we found this little sweet Nyonya house which serves Pai Tee & Asam Laksa. I tried the Pai Tee, it was yummy. I don't like Asam Laksa. So, I allow my parents to fulfill their crave, while I went to play with a German Shepherd. Woahh. It was really gigantic yknow.. but Don't worry, it is a tame one, said the owner of the restaurant. Next, we spot this arch leading to a nutmeg factory. We met this kind uncle that thought us more about the making of products (oil, drink, balm) made out of nutmegs and also the tree :)
I also got a chance to pluck a few leaves from his trees for my Biology Ecology project.
-See how dedicated am I, as a leader of my group. Lmao. Yknow I must be joking =P
Finally, we came to the shop that we planned to eat Asam Laksa there but my parents had enough of it at the previous stop already, my lilttle bro and I dislikes it.. So, we head to somewhere else on my daddy's tour.
He drive us around Penang. We paused at the oh-so-famous snake temple. The snakes there seems dead. No offence. Next up,
In the journey, little bro complaint he is hungry, so daddy, with no choice dropped by Swatow Lane. I had Kuey Teow Theng. with 3 mixed fruit Ais Kacang. NICE!
& Later that day, Dinner. Western Food near Pulau Tikus market. Huge portion. I nearly puke because I forced in too much pork chop into my esophagus.

Daryl told me that he was in Gurney Plaza the whole day, but I have no intention to go out with him that day. because my mummy don't seem quite happy. So I was forced to tolerate with the temper -.-"

Day #3
Breakfast was Wan Tan Mee at Kimberly Market. Then brunch at Ivy's Kitchen, a Nyonya food cafe. My mummy ordered Fish porridge for me and I was forced fed. )':  which I complaint to Daryl because so coincident, he text me.
In the end, my mummy had to put aside her Nasi Lemak and help me finish my meal :D
My daddy's set had dessert, lychee soya beans pudding. I ate it all. It was so Yummy~
** I know here I painted a picture that I am a bad girl telling a white lie.

We went back to the hotel room. I bathed in a bathtub filled with warm water. so nice, so relaxing. Hmmmphh.. When I am done, I receive a text from Daryl saying he is done with the stuffs-to-do at Gurney Plaza and can come to meet me already, but I wasn't quite ready, my hair is still wet and I am fugly.
Done. met Daryl with my cousin, Natasha at the lobby. Walked to Gurney Plaza. The Sun Arrhhh!
First plan was to buy movie tickets. but Shasha have some complications with her transport to fetch her home. So, we wait for her to do her arrangements first. Meanwhile, we walked around. Then, she said it is time for her nail appointment already. I stayed to watched a few process at the beginning, then skipped the nail polishing. Natasha just request for a plain dark purple color OPI polish, isn't so interesting afterall. Lol. We left her there by her own. Went to get the 3 of us movie tickets. We bought  R.E.D. because the time is suitable for the moment. :)
Then, little bro insisted to visit a Mac shop. Daryl brought him there, and made him lost. Pity..
Next, went back to the manicure outlet to check on Shasha whether she is done or not..
After that, Daryl complaint hungry. rofl. Lil bro said "let's go to A&W for rootbeer..
I ordered a sundae with 3 scoops of ice-cream with caramel topping but no nuts ):

Whatever. Boring. Nothing to do. Waiting for the movie time to come. Went MPH
There. Daryl told me a joke. He asked me what MPH stands for? I really got no idea.
He continued Many People Here. Righttt! I laughed but in a controlled manner =P

I spot something that my mummy wanted to buy for quite some time. Readers' Digest.
so, I bought for her. Since she have me fifty, fifteen on the mag wouldn't be an issues.
After awhile slacking in the bookstore, it's time to Shasha to leave us for home. Bye..

At the same time, our movie is just a few minute away.. So we rushed to the top floor like toddlers running to the playground because of my bro urgently wants to go to the gents. Lmao. I promised myself not to buy soft drinks and I succeed because I got no influence from Daryl nor my little bro. Hearts them most ;)
As the room is already open for seating, we entered the cinema. Fyi, R.e.d. is a 18 above movie and my lil bro who is only 14 years old entered without any complications. Yayy! for him :D

During the movie is a long story. It is just something you and me righttt

After movie, went to Popular book store to get some stationaries. Correction tape, eraser, glue tape, come up to $30. I know you'll think I am a big spender. I don't care =P
Tired. invited Daryl for dinner. Walked back to hotel. Offered Daryl Skittles. His reaction almost made me seriously Rofl. Hahah! Should have record it on video XP
Since my mummy told me that we're going out for dinner, I passed my packet of Skittles to Daryl to keep it in his cargo pants pocket because I wore a black dress with the compartments. I handed my phone to my little bro. They both are good storage X)
On the way to Kuta Bali, in the car, I sat in the middle between my little bro on my left and Daryl on my right side.
Reached. Waited for my parents to order their meals first. Then our turn. After fed up of walking around,
Daryl and I planned to share Char Kuey Teow with duck egg.
Then when the hawker serves, I stole a feed with my chopstick straight to my mouth, without my plate.
and this is one of the factor that made my mummy claimed I took advantage of Daryl *sigh.

Daryl went home with my Skittles, which I forgotten on the spot but just remembered when going up the lift to the room\

Day #4
Wake up, quite early in the morning because I know I have a lots of things to pack into my luggage to head home. My mummy wished me Good morning, I replied, softly. She thought I ignored her because I straight walked off, searching for toothpaste from her bathroom. When I came out of her bathroom, she wished me Good morning again. I replied this time, a little louder but I guess she still can't hear me well.. I just continue my routine. While doing what I have to do, I thought of why she wished me twice but I just couldn't come up with a logic reason. So, I went to ask her. She claimed that I did not respond to her. Fine..

I just take out my story book & read. My mummy got kinde fed up with me.
She interrupted my quality time between me with my book. She lectured me.
She tell me to share my sorrow with her. The truth is my mixed feeling but I told her about my studies, my failed time management to cope with my lower sixth syllabus and the coming upper sixth syllabus, especially Chemistry subject. & I teared straight away. So that proved me right! ;)
I made her believe what I was saying because my tears fell right off when I mentioned about my studies. Hehh!

After all that, we checked out the hotel, head to lunch. My favourite Hokkien Mee, under the tree is finally opened. I am satisfied but one thing I am not is the uncle, the boss of a gang of mechanics trainee sitting opposite my table was staring at me as I fed myself every feed! Arrhhh.. freaking annoying. That kinde lower my appetite. Even though I ate 1 and a 1/2 bowl of vermicelli prawn noodles. :P

On the journey to Kuala Lumpur, I drove quite reckless as my mind wasn't really concentrating on the highway. So my parents are afraid, they forced to stop the car that instant to allow my daddy to continue driving =\

Stop by Ipoh. This time, we get to taste Lou Wong chicken rice. It was packed because peak hour, lunch time. Yeerrrr.. The serving really do not suite our taste. Bluek! and and and The waiter there really spoil my appetite. awful :@
Number 1. They are so untidy. Long hair. Bad appearance
Number 2. They have really bad, worst public relation.=\
In the end, we packed back the rest of the chickens on the table.
Visited a shop at the opposite that sells salted chicken. pack back.
Get out of that lame rural city. Home sweet home. Slept at 9 :)

P.S. Amazing. This occupies 3 and a half times my laptop screen.
How I counted this? I just scroll down down and down and count.
P.P.S. I spent two whole day writing this post out. Difficult yknow.
