Emerald Puteri Hotel

Sorry about the quality of picture........

Well, Me and LC was back in SP.

we arrived late and decided to stay in a hotel instead.

so.........Emarald Puteri it was.

LC called earlier in the day to make a reservation,

and the staff just replied, " No need to book, plenty of rooms."

so, we did not.

once arrive at the check in counter,

told the guy, and the reply was,

"sorry, we do not have anymore normal rooms, but you can have

the deluxe for extra RM50"

anyway, i did not argue, and just say ok.

went up to the room........

and it was a room with 2 single bed.

came down again and complained, and insisted to have a

room with double bed..

after some arguement, i was about to walk out,

and suddenly,......

"Sir, i just confirmed theres one room available,

the person who reserved it has just cancelled.!"

and guess what ? this is all happening at 12.30am

went up to the room....was damned tired,

while waiting for LC to have a shower, i tried to turn on the TV.

and guess what. it does not work .

SO....... I will not recomend this hotel to anyone. !

Armadale

LC Received news that our pre-wedding pictures are ready !

YEA !!

This is a view of their office/shop

we were quite pleased with the photo shoot.

But lets wait and see the final product.

Look Look

Have not been writing must on this blog,

been really busy with work and the preparation for the BIG DAY.

anyway, wanted to share about my "Look Look" experience.

A while back, after a few drinks, usually there will be a "Look Look"

van outside waiting for customers.

For those who do not know..........

"Look Look" is a van that sell food, main in skewers,

and you dip in boiling water to cook it or in this case

in oil to deep fry it.

I chose to have clamps, "Si Ham"

have it deep fried, sprinkle some pepper and chili powder.

"Yummy ! especially after a few drinks."

try it

Big Day is Near

Well..... Been super busy for the past few weeks.

but most of the preparations are done.

had the pre-wedding pictures taken last week.

got that done.

invitation cards are ready.

Will...post some pictures of the wedding shoot later.

But......... as all goes well, work volume has increased...

and clients have been kind and paying on time,

and now I am short staffed......

RAIN

Sitting at the hotel lobby.......

this is what i see....

since morning till now.... its nothing but RAIN.

Trip back to KL will be a long one today.

Pondok Polis

after breakfast at the hotel.

took a walk outside.

The same question that never got answered.....

Why are there so many "pondok polis" that are not maned ?

Kuala Perlis

was in Kuala Perlis yesterday,

had to stay a night.

found a nice and clean hotel opposite the jeti.

" T Hotel "

it looks new, and the price is reasonable.

we paid RM 109 for a room with a queen & single bed.

Big Day has been set.......

1st October....registration

2nd october...bride side

and the big day ! 8th October......

went to choose the rings with LC on the weekend.

I knew she loved the diamond ring the first time she saw it.

so....... the second time around.

we were looking at the same ring.

and I bought it !

made her feel special, cause she is special to me :-)

now just have to wait for the wedding band to be ready.

Hotel Royal Penang

Booked through the internet for a room in Hotel Royal

or else known as the Dorsett Penang previously.

View from our room on the 13th floor.

The room is clean and neat.

no bad smell. or dirty floor. like the one we stayed in

in Tanjung Bungah.

And i asked for a high floor room.

and was given one.

for RM 190, not bad.

think we will be back in the same hotel next time.

Night view from our room,
sorry..... not a very clear picture.


Surprisingly, the bed was very comfortable.
we have a nice sleep.
Sunday morning, we woked up to this view.
nice and cooling because of the rain the night before.
remind us of Chiang Mai :-)

nice and cooling, just a day for Penang Hill.

PENANG

Was back with LC to her parents' place in S.P.

Stop by the "Pacific Mall" in prai to have lunch.

Its the megamall Food Court.

As Usual....... Must Have Penang Curry Mee.. !

And LC notice "Jawa Mee" so we ordered one.
Taste nice, expecially the keropok.

And LC had the "Wan Ton Mee"

Thinks she is coming down with something.

throat does not feel nice.

Luckily, turn out to be nothing serious.

Bought some "Manuka Honey" in penang the next day.

and that did the trick ! :-)

and best of all......

Penang Food is Cheaper then KL.

Things that a Man Should Know

Something i read.....

hope you all agree :-)

Proton MPV

Well....... LC wanted to have a look at the new proton..
and we drop by one in puchong.

the MPV looks impresive, and spacious.
and the price is ok as well,
about RM 75k with full accesories.

only one thing is that, the seats are a bit small
for the size of the car.

HOMETOWN Kopitiam

Went with LC to try out a new place in Bandar Puteri, Puching.

Hometown Kopitiam.

it was mid afternoon, not very hungry, but just wanted to

have a drink and try the place out.

we tried their "Yao Char Kuai" 油条

and it comes with mayonnaise on it

and we had and ice honey lemon, and a pineapple and lemon drink.

well,......the drinks are ok.

only the service is a bit on the down side.

most of the waitresses are not local,

so communication is hard.

and when we wanted to pay........

the Boss' son had to keep me waiting at the counter

for about 5 minutes, just so that he could figure out

what we had to eat and drink.

and......another 5 minutes to figure out

how to punch in the order into the reister.....

Done !

Am Happy Today......

Finally, handed over the keys to the new tenant

and ofcourse the most inportant thing....

i collected the deposit and the first month

advance rental......

sweet :-)

Chicken Rice 鸡饭

LC was telling me about this chicken rice place......

and they have the best roast Pork 烧肉

Well, the place is mei mei 美美 kopitiam

just opposite the 4 face buddha in OUG.

We ordered a plate of mixed, 烧肉, 叉烧, 烧鸡

and a plate of vege.

the roast pork is special cause the meat is soft and the skin,

is sooooo, crispy, and not hard at all.

the stall's name is 文记.

RUBBISH

Early this morning, while on the way down,

this is what i saw.......

another bag of rubbish, of which

someone on my floor is just too lazy to

complete the journey down with their rubbish !

what sort of mentality does these people have ??

sigh

Rest in Peace

Yesterday was a busy day.

and finally we have laid our beloved grand father to rest

in Peace.

RENTED

Well......... was telling LC that the person i showed the unit to

on saturday was a bit fussy, especially the Girlfriend.

why GF ? cause she does not look like a wife. :-)

anyway, just received a phone call from him,

and he has agreed to rent the place starting 1st July.

so, guess its done ! RENTED OUT.

Sad Day

On the weekend, was told my grandfather was admitted to hospital.

So on Sunday, took mom and went to visit him.

Sad sight,....... he was hooked up to so many tubes, and machine.

he could not speak, but we felt that he knew we were there.

At that moment, it made me think of my Dad.

I was lucky in a way, cause my dad passed away in my arms.

At 2pm on sunday, we received the news that he was gone.

we shall miss you.

No More wild Goose chase

Makes me wonder....... what is wrong with people nowadays.....
especially foreigners !

Well.... got another call from a foreigner again to day about the apartment.
" can i see the place today ?" the person said.

"sure !, i will be there before 5pm" i said.

so, i left office about 4.30pm and got there just about 5pm.
waited for about 15 minutes........

so i called.
"the place is too far, we are not interested" the person said.

"you should have atleast called me if you are not interested,
so that i don't have to rush down here !"
and i hangup the phone.

so, next time.....they can wait for ME !
