Family Dinner.

SPECIAL occasion calls for SPECIAL dinner with SPECIAL people.

DadKhoo's blessed birthday.

And so we decided to go eat something unusual and yummy to the max and far from the island.

Raja Uda is not only famous for tomyam okay. You can read all that in our food blog! :)

I'm not going to talk about how heavenly the steamboat was and how we ate to our hearts' content. NO KIDDING. Every drop of sweat is so worth it :)

It's that goooooooooood!

It was a fun night because:

1. we convinced Kelly to join us
2. there was not much of traffic on the bridge
3. tasting boiled bacon for the first time
4. we had the best han chin peng ever
5. the soup is refillable
6. Koay peeled the prawns
7. okay maybe not all cos Van peeled most of it
8. no one fights over the strips of abalone
9. teased Vanessa till she got speechless
10. got entertained with Nathan and Jayden's video
11. discussed about the Sulu issue
12. realised that boiled bacon is quite horrible to eat
13. we tried on pandan fried stuff and loved it
14. we took the ferry home
15. koay looked hilarious in the family photo we took on the ferry (his hair)
16. their toilets have air cond
17. I might be able to be in the room when my sister give birth
18. Vanessa and Rachel were born in a clinic. Me, in Adventist *proud*

Couple Comment.

**tie-shopping at Queensbay after lunch today**

Me: Babe, you know how people always comment on couples? Like that guy so handsome why he can end up with that girl not pretty eh? Or that girl so pretty la but also end up with a guy not handsome at all?

Him: Yeah.. Why..?

Me: I wonder what would people say about us hor.. *touches his face with one side eyebrow raised*

Him: *stares with one sided smile*

Me: Can you be the not handsome one ah? Then, let me be the pretty girl?

Him: *smiles* Yes, I'm the ugly one..

Me: Aww.. You the best la *grins* *whispers softly* Good thing you sedar sendiri also! HAHA.

Salty Sweat.

Today, the three of us woke up an hour early to get prepared for our weekly Saturday training. First time of going back there after six months plus. All are excited. I was too sleepy to join in their excitement. So sleepy till I drove to the wrong place. Good thing we were not late when we went to the right venue. Hah.

Anyways, holding that favorite stick of mine after so long feels so so good. I never thought that I have missed playing it so badly. You know, I do miss it but it's like the moment I held it, my world just came together. Of course there were fitness sessions into it. That, I don't miss so much. Holding the stick and chasing after the ball is so much more enjoyable. 

Kelly definitely played more of floorball too today. She really went for it, you know. Like charging towards the opponent for the ball. Not bad my kiddo. Vanessa Khoo leh, well she have more stamina than me. We did suicide rounds today and she was for sure faster than me by a lot! Like a lot a lot! 

Here's to many more training and sweating while we still can :)

Up, Up Here We Go.

Me: Give me a topic so I can blog about it :)
Vanessa: Me.
Me: Okay. Great idea! I'm gonna dig out all your photos and blog about it! :P
Van: *straight panic*

and for that, give me some time to find photos that will make your day :)

Pastor called me just now and I'm blogging about it because it's like one of the most thank-God-I-answered-the-phone moment! He called and said, "We are not going Sri Sayang d. We finally booked the Penang Hill one!"

Talk about INSTANT MOOD LIFTER! :)

Everyone loves the Bethel House of Prayer! Three nights up in that cold weather, BEST THING EVER!

Dinner Over The Sea.

Even on working days, you can do something fun at night. That's absolutely rightt.

And that something fun was a trip to Raja Uda for dinner.

Yes, it's really true that Penang people would travel for just one meal, as long as it's good and recommended by many. So where did we go for dinner? Here! (another way to promote our food blog hah)

Anyways, so we all gathered in my place and met up with the rest at E-Gate and convoy-ed together, using Waze. We didn't actually know that we were all talking about different Heng Heng but since we thought that no one else knew the directions there so we used Waze. And boy, can I tell you Waze really brings us through the shortcuts and got us worried at one point.

But all is well. We arrived safely and ate to our heart's content (if you follow me on my instagram, you would have seen my dinner's photo).

Fun continues when we all decided to take the ferry home. NOT because of the cracked bridge. I have to say, taking the ferry back to the island at night definitely feels a lot different than when it's in the noon. Pretty lights everywhere and Penang is such a beautiful island. Ahh, thanking God that I was born and raised here :)

And take ferry means you've gotta wait for the ferry. So while waiting, we did what everyone else would.. *scrolls down*

Pardon the quality of my photos please. Those clearer ones are obviously taken with an iPhone5. Duhh..

Ferry landed at the perfect side of the island because then we went searching for a place to hangout and coffee. We probably went to three different shops only to end up at Chinahouse.

 I don't know why I took this picture of the crayons. I think it's the colors.

Thanks to Instagram, everyone else would take pictures of anything that is colorful or black and white or a lamp post or clouds.

Nothing wrong about that but I guess I'm also being sucked into that "trend!"

Crayons on the table but no paper to let us use it on? Funny much.  

*watching Pretty Little Liars now and getting distracted*

*and doing a sales report* Talk about multitasking hah.

Next, desserts! (not a big fan of desserts, at all) but I decided to order coconut ice cream since Lovelocks have been closed for so long! Sadness overloaded.

worst coconut ice cream, ever.

Some of the bunch went up to the gallery but we stayed back. Too lazy to move our butts. So, we moved our hands and fingers, and cracked some lame jokes here and there :)

Great night out :)

Next one: FISH STEAMBOAT! (hopefully!)

Ask and it will be given to you.

And that is exactly what I did.

**At drive-thru Starbucks with Benjamin Yeoh, Nicholas Choong, Nicole Linn John, and Andrew Chan last night**

Me: Anyone wants to buy me the mug? RM25 only! *points at the mug on the display counter*
All: *poker face*
Chan: Ask Koay to buy for you la.
Me: *raises eyebrows*

**30 minutes later, Joshua Tan arrived and sat down**

Me: *looks at him* You want to buy a mug for me? Only RM25. *points at the same mug*
Tan: *looks at the mug from the distance* Okay, your birthday gift lo.
Me: *smiles from one ear to the other ear* SERIOUS? *rushes to the counter and grab one*

This, my dear friends is a perfect example of ASK, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU! :)

RM25 mug for the 25th birthday.

It makes horrible days much more bearable. Not that I have a lot of horrible days. But coming to office to this precious mug definitely gives a very nice and warm feeling :)

thank you, joshua tan sao peng :)

now, who wants to belanja me raja uda's tomyam tonight? :D
