Strolling around the Komtar


 Checking blood pressure and BMI counter

It's my turn


Counseling counter. Since she ask me the purpose of taking her photo and I just said as a memory. Hence, I choose to unrevealed your face

Free toothpaste


Accidentally found that there is a free checking towards the blood pressure, heights, teeth in the Komtar area which is near to the Popular Bookstore.

Without hesitation, I shift to the checking counter and fill in the various forms.


When I taking the photo, the nurse was teasing me and said: “still want to snap photo”. I just smiled.


After checking my heights, weights, blood pressure, my BMI is normal.


And got free toothpaste after checking my teeth.

Exploring BJ Penang

 Exploring BJ (Bukit Jambul) by using RP 302. It costs me RM 1.40 to come here from Jalan Bukit Gambir (my residential area). I found that a lot of RP bus will pass-by and it brings the convenience to the frequently bus passengers. I also need to transit the RP bus (307, 401E) to Queensbay Mall from here because there is no direct bus from Jalan Bukit Gambir (RP 302) to Queensbay Mall. Only 302 come across Jalan Bukit Gambir

 Various shophouses especially Hair Saloon

 Shophouses again

  Kompleks Bukit Jambul

 This apartment namely BJ Court which is very very near to Kompleks Bukit Jambul

   Mydin is located in the lower ground of the Kompleks Bukit Jambul

 Interesting name of this Kopitiam

It should not mean Chou Yang because it still not operate its business although 10am. There is no sign of customers in there.

Do you ask me will I move to BJ court? My answer will be definitely “No” because there is a lot of foreigner labors like Indonesia and so on (dark skin color people) in there. A Malay girl which is the Penangites told me that their hostels provided by the employer are quite near to Bukit Jambul. That’s why many Indonesians could be found at there. It is dangerous if go to Bukit Jambul during the night.

I own a broadband

 He is doing the payment receipt

 CELCOM white broadband

IC and student card


The rental room did not provide internet cause me had to buy a broadband to surf the internet for checking mail, applying job, and other unknown reasons. I chose for Celcom broadband (I’m the supporter of the Celcom, even my phone number was using Celcom number)

The Celcom promoter advice me to take the student package for the Celcom broadband (5 GB, 1.72Mbps) which costs RM 60 per month. (Actually I’m not told him that I was the student but from my hair cut and the cloth that I wear he identified me as the student). I’m really proud because it means I’m look younger. *happy*

After consulting him about the current internet line condition in my residential area, I had paid for RM 150 for the Celcom broadband modem and it had 7 days testing period. He further explained to me that if the internet speed in the broadband suddenly turned slow and other problems to that modem, I can opt for terminating the celcom broadband modem in the Celcom Center Penang. Sunway Tunas is the nearest Celcom Center Penang which was located in my residential area.

Last but not least, I got his phone number in case any problems happen towards my broadband. 

Acik (the Celcom promoter), thank you…….

Salute to Malcolm Tan

Grab the pictures from the The star website

 He is the history teacher in the secondary school in Singapore. I really respect him when he uses the role-play method in the history lesson. (Get to know him when I read the Star newspaper). Like in the photo above, he becomes the Japanese soldier in the history lessons about the Japanese occupation in Singapore. Such kind of real, alive and amazing history lessons impressed me because using such role-play lesson need the production cost which is the history costume. He really has the passion and dedicated in using this kind of method to engage their students with the history lesson. Gambateh~~~ A teacher should not only be academically qualification but have the passion to teach and inspire their students to learn well.

I recalled my memories that I also dislike history when stepped into form 1 in the secondary school. Monotonous and boring are always related with the History subject. My mind changed when my Papa taught me the History subject (Form 1 history) during the night. (Mama requested him to teach me History subject since there was hardly found the history tuition teacher in my hometown).  However, he did not use the role-play method to teach me history. Papa’s facial expression, intonation captures my attention to read up more history. (Paleolitic era is the first history lesson that Papa going to teach me). The highest marks that I got from the History subject in the monthly test of the secondary school raised my interest to History subject higher. From that time, I remained keen on the History subject although it was all about reading and highlighting the History textbook.

Although Papa is getting older, he still likes History. He will use his spare time to read some historical books in the library in my hometown. He will watch the success history of the Lim Wu Tong over and over again when he learned in the lobby of the Genting Highlands. (the time when my whole family travel to KL). Watching the success history repeat did not mean my Papa had the limited space in his brain, he just really obsessed with the history. Trust me History can steal my Papa’s heart brutally besides Mama.

Message from the Hell


I just received a message from the hell by the secondary teacher housemate stating that the garment rack in the balcony of the rental house is belongs to that photographer. The apartment owner did not provide the garment rack. Am I needed to appreciate her generosity in informing me about this? Or I need to angry with her because she did not mention when the first time I came to observe the room. She just smiled and pretended to be the good people.

JoJo, my 3rd sister advised me better bought a new garment rack for myself since it’s not ethical when sharing the garment rack with others. I think it’s one of the way to avoid quarrel. I’m really unfamiliar with the geographic situation of the Penang and did not where can buy such garment rack. I’m just headed to the Komtar and further walked and discovered Pacific Marketplace. In Sabah CP (Center Point) had Pacific Ngiukee while in Penang is Pacific Marketplace. Doesn’t mean both of them are the same?

I found the garment rack with double and single. I chose single garment rack because I only had few of clothes. It’s RM 18.99. 

 Easy to install without using any tools

 The guideline map

 Use 15 minutes to complete the single garment rack

Hello Kek Lok Si Temple, it's me again!



Not really comfortable when staying in my new rental room. And this drives my laziness to type, feel tired of writing (chair was not provided in the room). Hence I find a way to escape myself from the boring room by visiting Kek Lok Si Temple.

I think I should stop complaining because at least I have the money to explore the Penang because currently I'm unemployed (my mummy is the main sponsor of me, trust me my little youngest sister, Mickey is going to kill me since mummy require her to “berjimat-cermat” recently. Rosamond is the BMW (big mouth woman), when she was reading this posting, I ascertain she will inform Mickey.

Actually, I had been visit Kek Lok Si temple 4 years ago in 2008 with my daddy and Rosamond. Time flies pretty fast. T_________T. My family is not my aside, I visit Kek Lok Si Temple alone. *sadness*

One of the housemate, the secondary teacher ask where I was going for whole day. I just reply her I visit Kek Lok Si temple. She was teasing me and said 1 person also can visit Kek Lok Si Temple. Why 1 person cannot visit Kek Lok Si temple? Doesn’t it mean 1 person cannot walk, run, eating, drinking and shit? If everything need family and friends aside, it means you are not grown up. Having the body adult but have the childish mind. Stupid, idiot…………….

  Subway breakfast: Italian bread

 Cheese and Tuna

 I took the Rapid Penang (RP) bus 201 to go to Kek Lok Si Temple. Using RP 201 make me walk for 5 minutes. Just imagine I needed to walk further to reach Kek Lok Si Temple under a hot weather. The hot sun was melting me. After that, I found that using RP 502 is better than 201 because it stopped quite near to the Kek Lok Si Temple. Taking the bus from Komtar to Kek Lok Si Temple is RM 2.00 whereby Kek Lok Si Temple is located in the Air Itam, Penang. Komtar bus stop is the main bus terminal for the RP bus.

 
 the stunning view of the Kek Lok Si Temple from the lower ground

  The various ladders that need to passed through before reaching Temple

 Small shops that were selling various items





Liberation pond

 sympathetic with them





 



 Lazy to understand the writings on the big stone







 






 
  The buddhist monk require me whether I want to donate money to the orphanage

 Due to unemployed, I only donated for RM 1.00

 RM 1 for 1 wishing ribbon

 I got two same wishing ribbons without realizing. Actually the 1 wishing ribbon that I want to take is "being coupled and paired". Maybe is the fate of the Buddha that ask me focus on my career and job

 
Light up the lamp in order for me to easily get employed


 I had been seen this scene in the CNY song MTV

The temple visiting ended when I indulge myself Laksa in the Air Itam Pasar. It is RM 3.50. Rosamond had told me 4 years ago that, the Laksa in here is very famous in Penang. Once I taste, I really feel disappointed with its taste. The ingredients like the vegetables and the onions were too much and the Mee of the Laksa is too little.
