Penang and Genting Pt. 1

As what I have written in my previous short post, I was in Penang. I was there for only 2 days 1 night. It was quite fun, I think. But it was pretty lame going to FTZ Penang. If you didn't know, FTZ is a Cyber Cafe. There is a FTZ in Subang Jaya, and we managed to find FTZ in Penang. The interior was somewhat similar to the FTZ in Subang Jaya. Haha.

We basically travelled on foot in Penang. We managed to walk the whole day. The first day in Penang, we tried to find KDU college because Nicholas Tan, John and Eugene had to take their TOEFL exam there. We kinda got lost. But all in all, it was fun getting lost. I think we even saw hookers along the street. Even crossing the road was funny. I was the first one to cross the road. John was 'envious' and tried to cross quickly. But, a car came up and honked at him. Haha. We ate a lot of things the first day too. Char Koay Tiao, Ngor Jian, Curry Noodles etc etc. Some were quite nice, some weren't.

The second day. the 3 guys went for their TOEFL. Thus, Alexis and I went walking around. We managed to find a market and we ate Curry Chee Cheong Fun and Oyster Porridge there. Then Casey called. He sounded a bit emo because we didn't call him out. But HEY! He was sleeping. How did we know he wanted to go out? Anyway, being friends, we walked back to our inn to take Casey out. Ming Zhe however still wanted to sleep. So, the three of us went walking around Komtar area to find food.

We went back to the Inn at around 2pm. The TOEFL test takers were back along with Wern Pheng. So, the 8 of us (Alexis, Nic, John, Eugene, Ming Zhe, Wern Pheng, Casey, Me) went to eat... yet again. This time, we went for Cendol and Asam Laksa. Next, we wanted to hit Queensbay Mall. It wasn't within walking distance, so we wanted to take a bus. But when we reached the station, the bus left. No harm done. We shall take a cab, right? WRONG! The Cab drivers are seriously in a Union forming a cartel of somesort. They wanted to charge us RM20 - RM30 for a ride which is only worth RM10. And their attitude was so bad! I was so damn pissed off. Finally, we managed to take a bus to Queensbay Mall which only costs us RM1.50 per person! CHEAP!

We didn't really do much at Queensbay Mall. However, there's a stretch of sea near the mall. So, we kinda lazed around at the sea. It was then Ming Zhe dropped the BOMB. He wanted to go back to Subang tonight. We were like 'What the hell???' But then, it was his car and his choice. Not wanting to take a bus back, we decided to follow him back. We then decided to go up Genting the next day. We called Wai Ling and Pauline along. So, the 6 of us (Wai Ling, Pauline, Nic, John, Eugene, I) were due in Genting the next day. I managed to book us a room and everything was set.

The guys stayed a night in my home and we set off to Genting the next day...

Too lazy to type already. Continue it in my next post...
