Far away from home.

Recently i went to this seafood restaurant located right opposite Penang Island Ferry Jetty. I forgot the name of the shop, but i remember there is a big tree right infront of the restaurant. When i got into the shop, i found myself sitting at the side of this,

A 4ft wide fish tank

At first i find this fish tank very normal, filled with water with a giant seashell, marbles, pebbles, sand, dead corals and stone ornaments. Everything inanimate except 2 goldfish that the tauke (Boss in hokkien) has put in.

While waiting for my food to come, i was staring at the fish tank and thinking about my big and comfortable house in KL that i used to have a lot of fish tanks which i had a lot fishes in them.

Flashbacks of me and my papa taking turns to feed our pet fish and cleaning the tanks and my mama will be at the side there mumbling "U 2 ! nothing better to do ah? everyday fish fish fish only, not sien wan meh !"

But since i moved out to Penang Island to further my tertiary studies

Paying attention in class.

and my younger brother following the same route, the house is now left with only my papa and mama. With me going back only twice a year, I can really feel that my parents misses me alot, and they r really lonely in a big house just like them.

The 2 lonely goldfish in the big fish tank.

Looking at the goldfish really make me feel that i am a lousy son, I really need to go back more often!

Langkawi Trip - Last Day

The Last day at Langkawi Island ! Don't really want to go back but i still got a tonne of work back home waiting for me and my vacation fund is running low. So i forced myself to wake up early in the morning pack my bags and ate breakfast.

Tolebrone for breakfast only at Langkawi.
"B" for breakfast

We check out from our hotel rooms at around 9 something and head back to the jetty to return back the van. Our return ticket back to Kuala Perlis is around 2.45pm which means we still had roughly 4 hours more to enjoy Langkawi so we deposited our luggages at the jetty and took a ride to Kuah Town for the last time to do some last minute shopping.

Langkawi is famous for its dirt cheap import chocolate, tax free cigarettes and liquor. But there is a quota, whereby 1 person is only eligible for a carton of cigarettes and 1 liter of liquor. So we bought whatever that we wanted and some requests from my friends back home. This is what we bought.

6 bottles of miniature whisky and vodka.

1 deuter backpack, a pair of nike court shoes, damn alot of chocolate and a carton of Marlboro Menthol for my gay friends back home.

After we had done shopping at Kuah Town, we all went to the Eagle Square which is a stone throw away from the jetty. Nothing much to do but just for taking pictures with this

The all famous Langkawi Eagle Statue.

She must be angry of me for taking her pic looking like this.

Me and Kimkim doing our own version of flying eagle.

Despite the harsh weather, lousy food, me still a VIRGIN and closed down of hanging bridge, the 14 of us still manage to enjoy ourselves and had a great time. It is nice to have friends tagging along for a trip like this, chatting, eating, sleeping and drinking. The bonding between all of us after this trip definitely got closer than never before.

Last group photo at Langkawi Island.

Tired but Happy.

Goodbye Langkawi.

We all gonna miss u, a lot !

Langkawi Trip - 2nd Day

The 2nd day started with breakfast at the worst Mamak shop i ever been. The Mamak's curry taste and smells weird, maggi goreng that were cooked at India and courier to my table and everything is 15-20% more expensive then normal.

But we were too hungry to give a damn, so we just gonna get our stomach filled and continue to have fun.

Everyone still manage to keep the spirit up although the food sucks.

I ordered fried rice with pork, but the mamak say we HALAL, so i ended up drinking ice water.

After breakfast, we went to visit the famous cable car ride and Langkawi Hanging bridge located at Oriental Village.

Kimkim camwhoring while i was driving.

But on the way there, i saw the most beautiful Petronas Station in the world. check it out !

Normal only what, nothing special leh.

But it had a very cool name, it is called Petronas Quay.

Petronas Quay, what quay ? This quay.

A Petronas with a Quay, can it get anymore better?

The boys posing

The girls posing

The place is so beautiful with all the vessels park at the marina and background full of lush jungles. Eventually, I took more then 50 photos of this place alone.

Romantic anot ?

Time is running short guys, we need to continue our journey.

We reach the Oriental Village, it is the place where we r going to board the cable car and head straight up to the hanging bridge. Been waiting to see the hanging bridge for a very long time.

Entrance to Oriental Village.

Not so Oriental to me !

Very peaceful Lily pond.

Cable car ground station.

Can't wait to take the ride, just look at the height it can reach.

The weather is not doing quite well though, it is pretty cloudy and the wind is blowing, therefore they temporary haul the service. But when i approach the counter to purchase the tickets and guess what i saw.

KNNCCB ! Fuck u Muthafucker !

I came all the way from 1 island to another island, just to visit this place and it fucking closed down for repair works. My luck just hit rock bottom and that just not the worst yet, it

started to rain.

We waited for the rain to stop and cursed, why we can't go to the hanging bridge. We were all very disappointed and decided to BOIKOT the cable car as well. But right after the rain stop, some of us manage to find this petting zoo and it is free to enter, YEAH !

Finally something that is free !

Which is cuter ? The rabbit or my KimKim.

Me holding the rabbit and looking like a perv old man.

Teaching the rabbit to stand on both feet and looking at the camera.

Everyone busy feeding the deers

After a while, it started to bored me out, so i started giving lectures about sex positions. This is me giving example to 13 other students and an old uncle about sex positions.

Class ! this is "Deergy Style".

U need balls of steel to do this, so scare that the beast is going to back heel me in the sack !

Next Stop Crocodile Farm.
"Same old shit, just different Time". Still very much the same compare to the last time i was here.

20 ft long and weighs a tonne.

The performer cleaning the croc's teeth, no wonder it is so sparkling white.

Feeding Frenzy

The crocodile farm was pretty boring and seriously a waste of my vacation funds. But our next stop is the best place i been in Langkawi. It is it is very secluded and very hard to reach, it is located at Datai Bay and the name is The Andaman Resort.

The Andaman Grand Lobby. Cool !

Just look at their Lobby Hall. It is so grand, it is going to cost a leg or a hand to stay here.

Fuck ! I am rite.

But this is what u r paying for,

Water pool that is seamlessly laced within the rain forest.

The swimming pool that is just out of this world.

The private beach with sand that are so soft and silky.

But with my current condition like this,

FUCK ! Empty wallet.

I can't afford to bring Kimkim here. So we took the opportunity to take as many pics as possible, just to bluff our friends that we stayed at this resort.

Wallpaper of the Year 2008

Just trying to look cool !

The foot ring, 14 feet, 70 nails and countless leg hair.

Just find this pic cool

Pls control urself guys ! we r not staying here tonight.

After having much fun and fantasizing that we r loaded enough to stay here, we continue our journey to Tanjung Rhu Beach.

Tanjung Rhu Beach

When we were there, there is a small sand island located 20m away from the shore. It is very clean and the island will only surface during low tide. I manage to walk thru the small stream and landed myself on the small island alone.

I was like a small boy, walking around the island and searching for interesting things. I manage to find, crabs, hermit crabs, shellfish, starfish, jellyfish and corals all on the small island.

Cast Away

Poor Kimkim waiting for her man to come back.

Time fly by and it is dinner time already ! With last night dinner trauma still clear in our mind, we decided to have a seafood feast in Kuah Town at this place called

Since when Kauboi eat seafood ?

We ordered altogether 9 dishes, 2 fishes, "Kam Heong" mussels, deep fried squid, claypot taufu, prawn, mantis shrimp, chicken and vege.

Claypot Taufu

"Kam Heong" mussels

Sweet and Sour fish

Mantis Shrimp, the best dish of them all.

Only get to take pics of 4 dishes because if i continue to take pics of the food, none of it will be left for me ! The whole dinner only cost us RM280, great food and dirt cheap price. Highly recommended.

After dinner we head back to our hotel rooms to call it a day, but where got ppl sleep so early in Langkawi without doing this !

Drinking Session

Beer that is cheaper then Soft drink ! No water pls.

This is how much we drank in 1 night.

.

Prescription for a good night sleep is 5 cans of Heineken and nothing else !

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE !
