The beautiful town.

At first I thought I've never been to Penang, but then I figured out that I was here when I was a kid for the Butterfly Farm. Not stepping to this beautiful island since I was a kid. As my aren't going anywhere on holidays because they claimed that every where will be crowded and they don't want to leave for the business during normal school days. That's why I have no memory for this island.
This time my parents are forced to drive me there for IELTS.

Figured out that highway has the best view especially during evening, during sunset.

All the pictures are taken with iphone 4s and are all original.
How can you not feed your eyes greedily on these view.

Nonetheless, the famous Penang food : Laksa, prawn mee, chau kuey teow and many many more. Thumbs up for all of them !

Chao Kuey Teow.

Prawn mee.

LAKSA. 

I don't know what these called.

Curry mee.

Oyster omelette with big big oyster. Me loveeeee.

Attention seeking Ferrari in red. Priority for branded car like this is allowed to park at the entrance.  

After the last session of IELTS, the speaking test, we went for durian. My first time having durian by the roadside. Hmmmm. Kinda weird and embarassed, I think. 

Yayyyyyy. Everything is over after the hectic day. The nervousness, excitement are gone. Brought the complicated feelings home after the speaking test. Don't really think I did good on it as the questions are kinda hard I think. Crapped all the way. The examiner is too good looking, that pair of blue-green eyes. Ohhhhhhhh.

Ferry to cross the sea. 

22nd June 2012

It's another year, eventually it's her birthday again. 17th this year already, one year older than previous year. Should be more mature on thinking . Lol. I'm glad that you liked the cupcakes.

On your birthday 2012, June 22nd. I've complicated feelings due to the happenings. Firstly, my IELTS result is releasing after 13 days. Thanks God I have a not-very-bad grade. But slightly lower than what I've imagine, still I dd my best. Secondly, our, the 1995's babies last sports day in high school. Everyone of us put the last effort for marching team and the sports game. What we're hoping for is to have a great memories keep in our mind forever and ever, till the day we leave the world. Red house doesn't disappointed me as we're the 3rd for overall, 2nd for mascot and 3rd for marching, all top 3 !! On the same day, my younger brother left for Aussie. Not knowing that I would shed tears looking him leaving us towards the immigration and walked forward till we couldn't see. My tears are out of control.

I'm now alone in the palace. Noone to talk to, no one to play to, no one to argue to.

Emotional won't help

This was a month ago.

May oh May, your ends make me more happy than ever. I'm being a super good student everyday in May as for studying after school and tuition classes. I survived at last. I wasn't drown in the ocean, struggled so hard to live....

Couldn't really believe myself for doing notes this time. I hate notes to the max before this, it eats up a lot of time for doing it. But then I like to draw simple little things with different colour this time. It looks nicer and more attracting, don't you think so ? Another thing was colouring what you've drawn ! Taking up colour pencils after yearss.

Lacteal.

And then, I started to fall in love with fruit juices once again ! Sounds healthier ? They taste really good with the presence of banana. Really really delicious, love them superb much. Have you ever tried this combination ? Simply pick some fruits from the fridge.

Kiwi, couples of strawberries, bananas and some natural flavoured yogurt.

This is the outcome of the combination. Colour wasn't nice ? But it really taste good. :)

The week before the mid-term test start, there was the sukantara for every house. Yivian's mom delivery Kenny Rogers as her lunch as well as their muffins for us. Yivian treat me hers muffin as the reward for getting 2 marks for the high jump session. Hehehheheh. I contributed to my house for sports day. LOL. I always convince myself that the little marks do help for the overall. 

I heard a bad news when school dismiss on Friday, my mother's side grandpa passed away. He's been weak for some time already since he got cancer. These bad bad cancer cells were damaging his immune system and made him suffer. Seeing him looks thinner and thinner every time I went back with mom. Mom was worrying about him and she visited him at least once a week lately. When he couldn't even drink, mom insist to send him to ward since he wasn't took in anything in 3 days !

I have to admit that I'm selfish as I'm not willing to stay there for the funeral by giving reason I've to do revision and ballet lessons couldn't I miss since next week is the exam. Grandpa should be disappointed on me. I felt sorry for that but I doesn't mean it. :( Really felt sorry and guilty.

I slept for few hours only during the first night of funeral as there isn't enough space for us to sleep. Waking up early at 7 that day, with this wonderful yummey chao fun by my aunt. Eat this while doing revision for physics !

I didn't sleep for the following day as there was no place, chit chatting with my cousins all night long. And this was my very first time staying up till morning and went to Mcdonald's at 4 in the morning ! Lollll. Went there for some breakfast and coffee to waken up yourself...

Sadness. I saw mom's tears keep falling down from the corners of her eyes, she went several times to see the last face of grandpa. I saw her cried made me burst into tears, I can feel how mom cares and love grandpa much. I'm sad to see mom cried, I couldn't do anything...the flashback of my healthy grandpa, welcoming his grandchildren everytime we visit with his broad smile on the face, asking me question. The healthy him...

Surprise from Carmen !

I need to blog this first. INDEED.

A big surprise from Carmen, she did mention that it will be a surprise on June earlier in May and I wonder what is that. Not realise that even she tagged us in the video on facebook as she always tagged us. How she did she reveal this surprise to me ?

We had a baking session in my house yesterday, we tried to bake macaroons and it failed of cause.

The failed macaroons !

 While waiting the to-be-failed-macaroons baking in the oven...

It went scorched. WHYYYYYY.

I don't care. I must have the second attempt with YeYi next weeeeek, until I bake it successfully.
Then, we were chilling in my room. She's complaining about the streamyx in my house because it's superb slow, couldn't load the video she wanted to show us, not exactly couldn't load but take times. The video was Jun Sung Ahn's latest violin cover. She was still waiting for the video to load and she showed me on her iPod.

DANG. DANG. DANG. DANG !! It's our photo in the video, Jun Sung Ahn's video ! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT ?

Spot us at the right bottom. 'Rock on Senior Year' !

Polaroid of the day.

Look at them. I can only get this face, =.=

It doesn't matter who you are a decade ago, a year ago,or even yesterday. What matters is who you are today and will be tomorrow.

Events in A&M

Rewind. Rewind. Rewind my memories back to March after I came back from Spain trip, April and part of May. Not gonna blog for Spain trip and my birthday first as it will take super long time to upload photos. SCREW blogger ! Alright, I'll just mix the events in this post.

Let the photos talk...

A day out to Aeon Station 18.

Menu of Pancake House.

Ice Lemon Tea.

Pancake with maple syrup.

Yivian's lunch, beef burger ?

Pancake House's Taco.

We don't care how other people looking at us doing silly things, taking picture at the center of the corridor.
This is the way we are.  #girlsaddiction

Never forget to have a cup of white chocolate ice blended before home.

Sam Tet 'A Night At The Movies' Symphony Orchestra 
This was the day where my girls and I pay full attention on the new-born-couple, Alex and Mak ! I couldn't stop screaming and twisting Kimberly's when she told me everything about them. They are just so sweeeettt. How can Mak refuse to say NO to Alex ?! This was a case I knew from Kimberly, Alex phoned Mak when he's still in school one afternoon just to make sure Mak felt alright with her braces . I was totally amaze by him for calling with public telephone. Imagine they're on phone and Alex kept inserting coins into it. HAHAHAHHA. 

Dang dang dang. Here's Mak holding her 'keepsake tokens of love' and Alex behind her. 

Nonetheless, I need to mention how this signature comes. So, we're it's the rest time and all of us left the hall for some fresh air. The singer of the night, Jialit appeared to have a talk with Yivian or something.(Don't really remember) We're having jokes to get signature from him, and guess what ? He took out a silver pen from his pocket and was ready to sign for us ! LOLLLL. We fulfilled his dream as a superstar, leaving signature on the ticket.

Tickets with signature from the singer of the night.

Silly Mak with me after the concert.

From left: Vanessa, Minjet and Kimberly.

Outfit of the day. Black top and blue skirt, white small longchamp.

A smile takes a moment, but the memory of it lasts forever.

Chances are getting less

In life, many things don't go according to plan. If you fall down, get back up. If you stumble, re-gain your balance, but whatever you do never give up.

What are you guys doing during holidays ? Here's my first hang outs with buddies to Aeon Station 18 today. This is my second time coming to this place. Some of the shops are still under renovation, why so slow ?

Woke up early to attend the first lesson for IELTS, 2 hours. 8 more hours of lessons to go then will be the real test, next Saturday. GOSHHHHH. Immediately went back to school to pick up Carmen to my house, then wait for Tammy to fetch us to Jerry's office. It's like transiting at the airport, just to go for Aeon. While waiting Tammy, played with Carmen's violin. My fingers aren't flexible enough, maybe need more practise lahh, my fingers couldn't separate for the correct note. I just want to learn a song, 'The Moon That Embraces The Sun' but it's kinda difficult for me to learn it as I totally have no music base. :( Regret for stopping my piano when I moved in to the new house. TOTALLY. REGRET. NOW. 


Back to today, had lunch at Sakae Sushi as Carmen and I are craving for.

Tenzaru Soba.

Salmon temaki and California temaki.

What's next after lunch ? SHOPPING TIME of cause, Cotton On the first station of all. Grabbed this and that, tried this and that in the fitting room even went a lil' bit madness due to the sale.

Take a break from the madness of shopping with them. All were hunter for best thing, all were like wolf that gets hungry. Hahahahaha. As we have not much time left, Carmen headed to Starbucks to redeem her cake due to her birthday this month. I chose Chatime over Starbucks today. On my way to Chatime, passed by Baskin Robbins, got attracted by their cakes and peep at their nicely decorated cakes in different size. Tammy and I decided to try a slice of them, take away and my drinks then meet up with Jerry and Carmen at Starbucks. 

High-tea with buddies are another relaxing moment after those stress and pressure we've in school. Ohhhhh. Good to sit down and chill with yummy sweet foods and beverages. Nonetheless, camwhore like what we usually did and spam instagram. #girlsaddiction 

A slice of cookies&cream with devil chocolate cake, Starbucks hot chocolate.

The mess we made.

Grape Fruit Green Tea with aloe vera, slight sugar and half ice.

Tried new flavour today as I'm bored of Roasted milk tea. I still prefer passion fruit green tea after all. Somehow I felt that this taste like soda drink, Idk why. (Personal opinion) Slight sugar sugar is much better than half sugar.

The corridor at Aeon entrance.

Tank top and shoe from Cotton On, shorts from PDI.

Today's outfit.

A photo of us to end this post. 

Today is another fun time being with buddies.

Until next time, Good Night. 

With Love,

YeeLin.
