Have been so busy with work! Am currently working part time for my dad in Tupperware and also working for Cats Whiskers boutique! It's pretty fun to work and earn money at the same time during the holidays to keep my days occupied...if not I'll seriously die of boredom at home.<br /><br />Day 3<br /><br />We had breakfast at Pulau Tikus as usual, this time in a different coffee shop literally right opposite Hui Wen's house. We had pan cake and Chee Cheong fun with loads of Ha Gou (Mega hated it, you should see her expression when she took a bite of it, haha). We were so stuffed that we went back to Hui Wen's house to rest before venturing into the town for lunch. For lunch we decided to eat Nasi Kandar, at this very popular Nasi Kandar stall called Merlin, at Penang street and Union Street Juction.<br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilBbMWK3Aid68zGgYipo1lNR10ConG6KhdT_jlUa_6wIAV3sEHFyGB3cL5bNxtjvQ_JkUPBfcyQCRLPXZfFWqSh7yvkhyphenhyphenAqPoEFPJlOM7j7Hjzz0ZPiN3wZVmxtP8RnSXkh4E46kpmy9o/s1600-h/4502_97137483920_597468920_1705260_7477816_n.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilBbMWK3Aid68zGgYipo1lNR10ConG6KhdT_jlUa_6wIAV3sEHFyGB3cL5bNxtjvQ_JkUPBfcyQCRLPXZfFWqSh7yvkhyphenhyphenAqPoEFPJlOM7j7Hjzz0ZPiN3wZVmxtP8RnSXkh4E46kpmy9o/s320/4502_97137483920_597468920_1705260_7477816_n.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342316556104912834" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(0, 204, 204);">Yes, feast your eyes on this nasi kandar...muahaha. Honestly, when it first came, it looked like any ordinary Pelita Nasi Kandar you can get right here in KL. But the kuah that came with it, oh my goodness, was heavenly. Too bad i didnt take a picture of the, as it was too delicious that i instantly chucked the camera into my bag and gobbled up the Nasi Kandar + kuah. The Kuah had a velvety texture to it and the amount of santan added to it was just absolutely purrrrfect. Okay, moving on...LOR BAK!</span><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBn4wV1XeCne4QSkP10ugcM5ZFzBPjdumKeuYeHM20v0zx8omHaQ106GDr2xR-3WY1i3lTC0Wr1HYpwToCqafMYMWC_tM3nrANdXr3PfUPMVbvNJg3BcAlrrBDsj2ISVZCc2fy12lpHnU/s1600-h/4502_97137498920_597468920_1705263_7919626_n.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBn4wV1XeCne4QSkP10ugcM5ZFzBPjdumKeuYeHM20v0zx8omHaQ106GDr2xR-3WY1i3lTC0Wr1HYpwToCqafMYMWC_tM3nrANdXr3PfUPMVbvNJg3BcAlrrBDsj2ISVZCc2fy12lpHnU/s320/4502_97137498920_597468920_1705263_7919626_n.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342318496350571666" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_68GtghXl7cW_ruT_5dllxOqbCtR8-IJFCEkrw2VCaVaPaovONto4fowGaVqwTrg-LQ-ppbUFufy2avunrtdvWGolN5mDwX9sN9gmnz0p5byRRBqhnJ6T1yxlS31rpaQqL_m2ApE14Uw/s1600-h/DSC01847.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_68GtghXl7cW_ruT_5dllxOqbCtR8-IJFCEkrw2VCaVaPaovONto4fowGaVqwTrg-LQ-ppbUFufy2avunrtdvWGolN5mDwX9sN9gmnz0p5byRRBqhnJ6T1yxlS31rpaQqL_m2ApE14Uw/s320/DSC01847.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342318827151748946" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 204, 204);">This Lor Bak rocks my socks! Located at Kheng Pin Shop, you can get deliciously fried sotong, fried pork and a generous amount of century egg together with ginger. The sauce? It is made of egg white and hence having a sticky texture to it. What happens to a bunch of glutton girls if they come across this awesome combination of food? They finish the whole plate in under 5 minutes. That's exactly how yummy it was, despite having a stomach still filled with partially digested Nasi Kandar. *sniggers*<br /><br />It was a hot day and we were in need of something icy and cold. We resorted to Penang Road's famous Teo Chew Chendol. Despite the crowd, the service was quick.<br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijwcmDTSeRqeeCtlI7JuF93VwMT-O_jdDbvL3zmZv9H7emyPLsy4MsGwq5tjduRHS9-VZN0te6F1LKOguKMTLbSRGEcU0kbUfPEemVpPEj14pkVCmyv4wowkOjxakOmIzaDItTvsWAyEE/s1600-h/DSC01848.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijwcmDTSeRqeeCtlI7JuF93VwMT-O_jdDbvL3zmZv9H7emyPLsy4MsGwq5tjduRHS9-VZN0te6F1LKOguKMTLbSRGEcU0kbUfPEemVpPEj14pkVCmyv4wowkOjxakOmIzaDItTvsWAyEE/s320/DSC01848.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342327662718683938" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4AWDaMOYJPT2PpVKv0raiz4PTil2xgiPwNECVyGbaGX7UhepYLw3MjxF8t2smhr4da7JZXpkQscOmR5BtqpHKiWWMwJ_NzY2Hio2vGFjgvw5y3kDCFDtgIRhjWHTRBO8A76nXI2tiCeU/s1600-h/DSC01849.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4AWDaMOYJPT2PpVKv0raiz4PTil2xgiPwNECVyGbaGX7UhepYLw3MjxF8t2smhr4da7JZXpkQscOmR5BtqpHKiWWMwJ_NzY2Hio2vGFjgvw5y3kDCFDtgIRhjWHTRBO8A76nXI2tiCeU/s320/DSC01849.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342328637472610946" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 204, 204);">For dinner, we went to Francis Western food corner at Pulau Tikus.

<br />Wohoo. Congratulations Kris! Am super ecstatic. He totally deserves it. When he won, he was speechless and later kept on saying that Adam Lambert deserved it more than he did. What a humble dude! (and a cute one too :P) Keep it up, Kris. Am looking forward to your albums!
<br />
<br />An excerpt from wikipedia about Kris Allen:

We took a short stroll to New Cathay coffee shop as it was just "right opposite Hui wen's house", as she always puts it. lol. Once there, The ONE stall that caught my eye was the KUEH CHAP stall! oh, the fond memories i had eating kueh chap while growing up in Kuching stimulated the food nerve centers in my brain. To those who are not famililar with Kueh chap, it basically comprises of noodles which resembles "Hor Fun", however much thicker and flatter. The broth is made of chinese herbs (like bak kut teh soup), flooded with duck or pork meat and "tou fu". In Penang, however, they serve mainly kueh chap with duck. In Kuching, kueh chap is exclusively pork-based.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip5_aChyAP421n4W5RaTglC4vhctuwxoTS4aylU6ouWoR8ERTT7iNjN3Ha-LZJqqItxAYdyaISj0TS0KWpYUmgHRaxeEv-s42KUumIBaatqQBrP29OqX_4r_qfeJUZAlZWaEBoYE-LUT8/s1600-h/4502_97119298920_597468920_1704962_5237181_n.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip5_aChyAP421n4W5RaTglC4vhctuwxoTS4aylU6ouWoR8ERTT7iNjN3Ha-LZJqqItxAYdyaISj0TS0KWpYUmgHRaxeEv-s42KUumIBaatqQBrP29OqX_4r_qfeJUZAlZWaEBoYE-LUT8/s320/4502_97119298920_597468920_1704962_5237181_n.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338120384155732290" border="0" /></a><br />Penang Duck-based Kueh Chap<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">After having a go at this, i personally think that Kuching Kueh chap is still the best. (sorry hui wen :P). On the side note, if anyone is visiting Kuching anytime soon, you will find the best Kueh chap in Poh Kwong Park (where i used to live), behind Kueh Siang Ann shop. Kueh Chap aside, lets now focus our attention to Penang laksa.<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-kom3RCr9gdFNbCp8DmVOfkXMOtYuLfAJ5Q9FqHn5lMIGX1VOiQbSmTM0vgyIJlKzJuqz9dIfK4r63KuXDxE6AoOo_yrwq3ITgxd4zZUETwaYEtKvXJyeW_Rit28Ex5EhyphenhyphenvkVyP3eyOg/s1600-h/4502_97119303920_597468920_1704963_5524019_n.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-kom3RCr9gdFNbCp8DmVOfkXMOtYuLfAJ5Q9FqHn5lMIGX1VOiQbSmTM0vgyIJlKzJuqz9dIfK4r63KuXDxE6AoOo_yrwq3ITgxd4zZUETwaYEtKvXJyeW_Rit28Ex5EhyphenhyphenvkVyP3eyOg/s320/4502_97119303920_597468920_1704963_5524019_n.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338126951944897474" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The broth was slightly diluted, however when mixed with the sambal, it was absolutely heavenly.

According to hui wen, this asam laksa is the best among the lot! And true enough, it was indeed the best asam laksa i have ever tasted. I decided to order mine with "Ha Gou" (Prawn paste) as i have never tried this combination before.

Dissapointed, we decided to eat at another food court, known as Good all. Teng Wai and I had the chicken Teriyaki from the japanese stall and it was pretty good. The chicken was tender, and was served along with Miso soup and garlic rice.

thoughts are summed up with one word - contentment. Although it feels that i have missed out on a lot of things by not being able to experience studying abroad, I would justify it by weighing the pros and cons of studying right here, in Malaysia. One thing for sure, is that i would never have to miss out on the good ole' nasi lemak, "cha kuey teow", laksa, pan mee while studying in Malaysia (I recalled a friend studying in Australia who requested to fed-ex Pan mee to her).

<br />
<br />The next thing is that i would not have to worry about having a long distance relationship; it's seriously a tremendous torture not being able to see your loved one; even with technologies like skype, MSN and phonecalls, nothing beats the physical realm. lol.
<br />
<br />And also, I do not have to worry about over-splurging my parent's money when abroad. There's a tendency to do that especially when having a credit card and ATM without parents supervision. In addition, being homesick would be the last thing in my mind if i study in Kuala Lumpur as i would be constantly surrounded by family and friends.

<br />However, the cons of studying locally are tremendously abundant as well. Now that i am staying at home with my parents, it seems that everything is taken care of - bills, housework and i do not have the privilege to worry about them at all! (Hmmm, is it a good thing or a bad thing? haha) And yeah, i would never have the chance to practice my fake accent with foreigners! I've always wanted to do that :(
<br />
<br />
<br />Salby: *fake accent* Hey, how's it goin'? I'm Salby from Malaysia.
<br />
<br />Foreigner: Wow, Malaysia, huh? Where's that?
<br />
<br />Salby: It is a large country next to a small island called Singapore.
<br />
<br />Foreigner: oh! I know Singapore!
<br />
<br />Salby: ..........
<br />
<br />
<br />For what its worth, I realized that studying abroad is an additional privilege any student would enjoy. However, it should not be set as a "default" in life whereby it becomes something of a need, even so, when your parents cant afford it/or if you fail to secure any scholarships or financial assistance. Dont get me wrong, I am not in any way sour grapes about it. To those blessed ones who are studying or have studied abroad, what a tremendous privilege! To the "salbys" out there, it's okay if you're stuck right here in Malaysia studying a local degree or studying a 4+0 or 3+0 programme. Be grateful for everything God has given you and be content with whatever you have!
<br />
<br />ps: Sorry if i sounded like a naggy aunty, but i guess it comes with experience of overcoming the disappointment i had. :)
<br />
<br />tata!

I have been wanting to start a blog since the beginning of time, but i never got to it due to pure laziness; and also partly because of my hectic pharmacy schedule. <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">YES</span>, i am a pharmacy student; a future legal drug dealer, an expert in reading doctor's handwritten prescriptions (not really there yet), a self confessed caffeine addict due to never-ending exams and a sucker for free pens and goodies from my friends at pharmaceutical companies. Okay, enough of what i do for my future living.<br /><br />I was wondering, how do I kick-start a blog? After much pondering, I decided that I would write about random events that happened for the past few weeks. The last one week was uneventful, due to exams, so yeah i would definately not talk about it. Im just so glad that it's over! However, the one thing that i have learned from exams is that apart from over-frying your brains inside out, its a good way of loosing weight. haha. I lost 7 kgs since January 2009 and I'm feeling great. Not that I'm a self-obssessed weight concious freak, dont get me wrong, I just made up my mind to eat healthly and exercise more regularly to feel more alive and well!<br /><br />On a sadder note, a significant day on the month of April marked the passing of my 4-month old cousin, <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">Natasha Ng</span>. She was born with one under developed lung and an abnormal heart. Yet, the little strength that she had made her survive for 4 months by God's grace. She's truly an inspiration to us all and we rejoice for she is now in heaven with Jesus by her side.<br /><br /> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMBZAJMcsBoxNBkfwoGKqscdVyNN9N0yR3w1O_vRvHrlIHFr203vGeE4dYyDIJe875RRAsfzW2OF-aHA5HBBt6-E3yaye7Oeo88NwvUYkPcsClrvgki_pGo0tsn70qb0VDykwJAeIms_g/s1600-h/IMG_6548.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMBZAJMcsBoxNBkfwoGKqscdVyNN9N0yR3w1O_vRvHrlIHFr203vGeE4dYyDIJe875RRAsfzW2OF-aHA5HBBt6-E3yaye7Oeo88NwvUYkPcsClrvgki_pGo0tsn70qb0VDykwJAeIms_g/s320/IMG_6548.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332631847295380082" border="0" /></a><br /> <div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">The Sweet lil' girl</span><br /></div><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Our family (and joel :P) created a video tribute to little Natasha.
