Steffenie: A 4-day Trip Back To Penang.

March 11, 2009

It was a bright and sunny day in KL. Mom and I began to load our backpacks in the car, we started our journey back to Penang at 12-ish afternoon. it was a long journey back home, and throughout the whole journey, my friends and I were constantly messaging on our mobile phone making plans for the later afternoon. All of the sudden when we reached Taiping, it was raining heavily, we could barely see the car in front of us, and everybody moved slow. The rain then subside after almost half an hour. We reached our destination at about five o'clock.

When mom and I reached home, we started to unload our stuff from the car and started to unpack. My friends Kitt Mun, Sher Ren, Jin Aun, Michelle, Shze Chen, Wayne & Yin Yee then reached my house not long after I reached home, we chit chat at home for awhile and made plans for the night. We plan to have our dinner at Manila's Place, located inside Gurney Plaza. it's a fancy, cozy, fine-dining restaurant that serves variety of western and oriental dishes. And I gotta tell you guys! it was DELICIOUS!. we enjoyed our dinner, catch up with each other for awhile, telling jokes, laughing out loud. soon after dinner while we were catching up, Yin Yee's new boyfriend, Oliver joined us. eventhough we just got to know each other, we had fun talking.

We actually made plans to go to a place along Gurney Drive called Coffee Island, but it was raining that night. so after dinner at Manila's Place, we went window shopping at the new-wing of Gurney Plaza. After half-an-hour or so, the rain stopped and I suggested, 'since the night's still young, why not we head to Coffee Island now?'.. and so we did *laughs* .We went there found a place to sit and started to order some drinks. Wayne, Michelle, Shze Chen and I ordered four different kinds of Italian Sodas (gee, I've forgotten the names of the sodas we drank *laughs*). After the hang out at Coffee Island, we decided to head home. I fetched Michelle back home, and Wayne and Shze Chen planned to overnight at my place. It was a tiring day after the 3 and the half hour journey on highway, but I had fun. It was nice catching up with you guys, and Oliver, nice to know you :D

It was results day for our 2008's SPM examinations. everybody was nervous. Wayne, Shze Chen and I went to school together to take our results, I was the first to get my results. After we got our result Michelle, Shze Chen and Wayne got in my car and we were looking through our school records. We were satisfied we our results. We drove through McD's drive through counter and bought our lunch as everybody's in the mood for McD. We had our lunch and planned to head to Red Box in Gurney Plaza for karaoke, but too bad, there were a lot of other people who wants to celebrate for 'knowing their results at last' too :D.. So since we were in Gurney already, we went shopping for awhile. During dinner time, we head to Mizi's Bistro located at New World Park. after dinner, there was a breakdance competition or performance, I'm not sure what was it. Soon after that, we head home to rest, Shze Chen and Wayne decided to overnight at my place.

We made plans to go to the beach today, but we changed our mind. in the morning I fetched Shze Chen and Wayne to the near-by cafes to buy themselves lunch as I had to meet up my godparents for lunch today. I brought my godparents to the same place as I had dinner with Wayne, Mich, and Shze Chen last night, Mizi's Bistro. I really enjoyed myself with them as we had not seen each other for a month or more now. after lunch, I planned to go shopping with my godma, I thought of Wayne and Shze Chen being at home, so I head home to fetch them and we headed to Gurney again. Wayne and Shze Chen decided to walk themselves, so I accompanied my godma, we went shopping for hours, and I got myself a long-blouse, my godma too, got herself one. We head home and waited for Michelle. When Michelle reached my place it was near six o'clock, we were discussing where to eat for dinner, Shze Chen suddenly had an idea to bring us to a place that serves Western food around Pulau Tikus area. I ordered Chicken Chop, and I must admit, it's delicious. thanks for introducing, Shze Chen. :)

After dinner it was around half-past-eight, we head to Hainan Town because I heard they have this salsa night thing going on every Friday night, and i'm a big fan of Salsa, we went there and sat down, I ordered myself an Ice Lemon Tea, I think that's the cheapest drink they have, mineral water cost RM8 there, geez. I asked the waitress 'what time will the Salsa start?' and she told me that it starts only after 10 or sometimes 11, and that's hours away, so we decided not to wait for the salsa and head home. Michelle overnight at my place that night.

It's my last day to hang-out with my friends. Wayne, Shze Chen, Michelle and I woke up late today, we woke up around 11a.m. when we were still in our PJs Kitt Mun called up and asked whether we want to join him and Danny to Queensbay Mall and that they are already outside my house. So we agreed to join them and have our lunch there at the mall. We went to this new restaurant, Canton-i. they serve only chinese cuisine. It's my first time dining there, it's quite pricy there, but the food was good. After lunch, we walked around the mall for awhile and left at 4. It was time for goodbyes. I fetch Michelle and Shze Chen home and Wayne met up with his mom at the mall. after the hang-out I called-up my boyfriend's mom to see whether is she home cause I want to drop-by at her place. I drove to Air Itam to her house and we talked for quite awhile, we then decided to have dinner nearby, so we went to Asia Cafe near Penang Hill to have our dinner. after dinner I head home for awhile and rest. at around 9 o'clock, i'm supposed to meet up with my boyfriend's best friend and his girlfriend, Eugene and Shalini, at Old Town Cafe located at E-Gate, we had drinks and chit chat for awhile. at around 10-ish we said goodbye and head home. Thanks for the drinks Eugene. :)
