A Farewell at Kinta Riverfront Ipoh

I was digging up my photos. Omg, look what I found! Some photos I forgot to share with you all! Exactly 1 year ago, we had a small farewell for a friend who was leaving to Canada again! Don't laugh! Before I GOT THE CHANCE TO POST, he already returned from Canada this year (2011)....@@ Yup, how ironic! So, just assume that we farewell him this year!...hahahaha, by the way, this post was a continual from here - The Return of Perak Cave dated 5/12/2010.....(@@) hv to sweat myself.......

Hope that he is not mad! But, I already uploaded on my facebook, just din share the story here. Oh well, so, my fussy Canadian friend read the newspaper and said that he wanted to try this place - Kinta Riverfront. To my surprise, the atmosphere there was quite nice! By the riverside, it was so soothing and relaxing! and they were trying to pose some ghostly photos...hahahahah~

But, don't be so happy 1st! The food there was crazily EXPENSIVE! From the pics above, my friend's hand is and was larger than the plate! Oh yes!!!! Guess how much? RM 7.00 per plate, they didn't even serve us rice! The coco drink was still ok only. I think we ordered the wrong dishes already, should not try Indian food over there, the portion was so small~~But, the grill bar might oso end up to be the same..Oh well,  the only thing nice there was the environment. 

NOTE: It was already a year ago~~~If there are any misconceptual of this post, please correct me! Perhaps they improved their service already? If you have been visiting the same place, remember to tell me , ok ? thanks~~~

Despite all that, we had fun! That's what friend are for~~~ For FUN(^^) ~~And, the bridge there was pretty nice! I guess it will become a great landmark in Ipoh, if preservation of the area is well-maintained! It is great to see that Ipoh is finally moving!!!~~~

Penang Tripping Day 2

Omg, I must finish story before going into another 1! Yes, this old story was more than half a year(><)!!! The tight schedule of a year 3 student made me postpone this post like crazy! If you look at my right panel, my production in this blog is also very low, well, it keeps on decreasing! 

2008 - 101; 2009 - 78; 2010 - 49; 2011 - 12 only~~~oh yes, this factory is going down if I don't do anything!!!~~hahahaa~~~ Therefore, let finish off Day 2 1st~~~ As a continue of Penang Trip Day 1, we had a crazy night playing games before heading to bed.

Actually,  I was super thrilled to be there because I hadn't been to Penang for a very loooooooooooong time already. This time, when we reached there, I was super surprised! The Kek Lok Si was still there, but, accompanying by its side, there was a new Guan Yin Statue woh!!!! A humongous 1 ~~

Not that I didn't like the new GuanYin Statue, but, it was just too large! It definitely over-shadowed the Kek Lok Si. The development of Kek Lok Si really didn't stop. Actually, I was hoping for a preservation instead of a development. Oh well, forget the environmental stuff for a while, just had fun with my friends~~~

The upper region of the temple was well-maintained. Loving the environment there! It was not to overly-tourist-centered unlike A' Famosa Resort (will blog about it soon)....Hmmm, I wonder how all of those guai guai or tortoises could survive in such a small space~~~But, they were definitely cute^^



Photobucket

Of course, this was the most memorable spot for me because when I was small, I used to take photos over here where my parents tricked to hug the buddha (><)~~~ How silly I was that time, so easily to be cheated~~~~




Photobucket

We took an escalator to reach the top-pest part of the temple. Behold!!!! The twelve Chinese Zodiacs!!! These reminded me of the Broga Hill Temple there. There were also 12 zodiacs over there ( here).




Photobucket

Oh yes, the main attraction of Kek Lok Si is now replaced by the super duper huge statue of the Guan Yin!!!! If you look from far, it was as if the descending goddess onto the Penang Land!!!!~~~

The Magnificient Full View of The Guan Yin at Kek Lok Si


Before heading down the Kek Lok Si, my friend there set a wishing candle or some sort....It was like a wishing tree or something! Yeah, it was kinda calm after making a little wish(^^)

A Blog To Remember

It had been more than a week since my last paper. This year, the feeling is totally different! Unlike previous years, it is more like looking forward to seeing you again after the summer break. However, some of friends chose 3-year-course. Therefore, I am not going to see them after summer break. Well, we didn't actually say goodbye though even having the mini photo section for Chemical Engineering. Perhaps, it is better like that?

So, after deserting my blog for that long, I am finally picking up the pace and checking updates that I have missed for this long period. To my surprise, there are so many of my bloggers friends decided to either close their blog or set their blog into private. OMG~Just like that, I lost some interesting friends back here. Well, this is definitely not the 1st time. I have some bloggers which we constantly keep in touch via blog suddenly stop updating~ Maybe you are fed up with blogging? feeling frustrated in some moment?

Well, it is your blog~ I just wanna said that if you feel tired, just leave the blog alone~ Don't delete it becoz I believe that every blog contains some nice memories! Well, in my blog, I have a lot of crazy, happy, angry, sad, weird posts!!!! Don't just wipe out ur own existence~~~ If u wan to set it to private, rmb to invite me???~~~

To keep in touch, my friends, you are welcome to add me via my facebook@:
