7 days roadtrip around Malaysia (Penang part 2)

so we stayed in the so called "budget" hotel as claimed by the taxi drivers for a night..everyone was kinda pissed cause we had to fork out so much for accomodation! actually justin has an aunty who is in penang but we don't wanna trouble her la..having 8 rowdy bastards in a clean house is a no-no..HOWEVER, in the end, justin called his aunt and next thing you know, we were at her hse for d next 2 nights!! haha all of us woke up early because there were a few tourist attraction spots around georgetown before we checked out of the hotel such as:

Guan-yin Temple (Goddess of Mercy Temple) couldn't take many photos there due to the gigantic amount of smoke around! look at the size of the incense they are burning!!! gosh we went in and came out in a jiffy!
Khoo Kongsi which was nice..all of us got stickers and a post card as we paid the RM5 entrance fee :) a brief history of khoo kongsi is that it is a clan association of the Leong San Tong (Dragon Mountain Hall) clan, whose forefathers came from Sin Kang clan village in Hokkien province..The Khoos were among the wealthy Straits Chinese traders of 17th century Malacca and early Penang..In the 19th century, the clan complex resembled a miniature clan village,
with its own self-government as well as educational, financial, welfare and social organisations.
The clan temple was built in 1906 when the Khoo clan was at the height of wealth and eminence in Penang society..

what caught my attention was the beautiful paintings on every wall in the large hall! look at the paintings..in this case, i seriously think that a picture paints a million words :)

admiral on horse as leader of the trooppicture of army dunno wanna attack which country or take possesion of which clan..take their women and gold?

another nice painting on the wall
haha even the things supporting the roof is full with carvings of dragons!

haha we found a room that looks like a old classroom so we all went to sit at the chair so that we could cam-whore there..but then later alex and wai hong saw a projector! alamak it's just a screening room la not old class :( potong steam...


found the rock n roll stick as said by kennysia in one of his entries..i think it's a torture weapon whereby you jab the man in his ass with the index finger and then using your super-de-duper-hulk-superman-ironman strength, lift him up and then jab his bebola with the twinkie finger :D hahaha peace bradder..

fooling around in the gift shop ;)

thats all for our short time excursion before we check out of the hotel at 12pm..we then headed out to KOMTAR where we had to take a bus to the new Queensbay Mall so that justin's aunt comes and we can put out heavy and big bags into her car..we had lunch around the mall and since it was no longer a budget trip, me, darren and sin loong had manhattan's fish market for lunch which cost us a whopping RM27 bux each..since we didnt want to do any shopping, we took the bus to justin aunt's place which was behind University Sains Malaysia (USM)..we had a lil tour around usm cause some of us MIGHT be coming to study there..so just might as well walk around..while walking around, guess who we saw??! KENNETH KOH!! haha he suddenly came up to us in his 125z motor and *pin pin* at us! haha most of the sfi old boys should know him especially scouters :) anyway, it was nice seeing him all healthy again but he did laugh ALOT..hmmm wonder why eh?

so after hegeh-hegeh macam penagih at usm, we walked to the apartment to wait for justin's aunt..justin's aunt was very nice to let us stay in her house and even let us take her master room! this was the view from outside the apartment..looks like sim's city mia city..the apartment was fully equipt with swimming pool and gym..and aunty is paying 1000++per month for rental! phewww...

had nasi kandar pelita for dinner which was awesome and what doubled the awesomeness of the dinner is that justin's aunt paid for all of us :D thx aunty! wonderful dinner..as we were having our dinner, a bladdy mat rempit did a snatch and run robbery just a few tables beside ours! woohoo the guy just came, grabbed the handphone, and sped of! the victim tried to chase but the mat rempit revved up his motor and was bye-bye..

then we all headed back to rest in the apartment..we wanted to gamble but then not so nice la gamble in people's house and aunty was already asleep by 11..hahah the best part was, only snoring people were allowed to sleep on the bed in the room :D and i'm in the snoring orchestra :D wakakak..me, darren and justin were part of the team :) actually 3 of us was sleeping on the queen sized bed justin on left, darren in middle, me on the right..when justin started snoring sychonisingly with me, darren woke up and slept on the small couch in the room cause he cannot take the snoring heat! poor thing for a 6-footer..*sorry darren*

anyway, before lights out, must pee pee

darren and me peeing in queensbay mall ;)
