It's the last month of internship.

Well, in this tiny small penang island,

the MMU interns gather here to work at different locations, and of cuz, we do meet up as often as we can. Everytime we meet up, surely it's related to food. As you know, Penang, so called Food Paradise, does not being named accidentally. I think the food here leads to the gathering of interns in Penang.

 

Last few days, we met our long-time-no-see friend, let's welcome:

Terry the bear. (simply named de lar...ha)

 

I "googled" this that long dead YTM MCA xanga blogsite, thank god it's still existing. So this WAS the pic taken in year 2005, where everyone was looked so young, pure and naive. Now all polluted d. :)

[In the pic: Terry the bear, WeiLoon the balloon]


FOOD QUEST #1: T-Bowl, Queensbay Mall.

We had our dinner at this toilet themed restaurant in Queensbay Mall, which is T-Bowl.

Even the binding of the menu uses a toothbrush.

And you can see, the ice-creams shaped like shit.=.=

The interior design, the feeling of eating in bathroom.

You can take a bath here if you forgot.

Let's move to the food. The appearance of food and drinks all must be related to the theme. The choco nut dessert in pic below do look like so shitty, luckily the taste don't.

The grape milkshake looks like the indigested food and liquid content that you have vomitted.

This is the Seafood Fried Spaghetti, not much food from the sea though.

这一篇将以中文下笔。。。

那时一年前,我参与了拉曼大学的华乐演奏会,不是扬琴手的身份,而是以一位吉他手的身份。

中西合并的音乐,正是多点子的华乐老师的最爱。。。

林老师带我去了那个地方,一个餐馆,座落于Pudu那一区,Times Square 的后方。。

餐馆的名字叫----紫藤茶原

purplecane logo.jpg

这是Pudu Shaw Parade 的店面。。。

purplecane shaw parade.jpg 

之后,因缘之际,学会前任顾问的叙别会也在那儿举办。。。

当然地点有我推荐啦。。。不过这次是另一间分行。。。在The Gardens~~

Image101_resize.jpg

Image091_resize.jpg  

那儿的菜肴几乎都有茶香的成分,而且不油腻。。。蛮健康的!

等待之际。。。

Image074_resize.jpg

那天的主角。。。左边那位。。尤芳达教授(以前都称呼副教授)和右边那位是蔡贤德博士(要加称呼拿督了)!

Image075_resize.jpg

多么荣幸的是可以和他们以共餐。。。尤教授是前届十大杰出青年奖得主。。。来头不小!

蔡博士更吓人。。。在工程界扮演重要的角色,现今还是拉曼大学的校长!!

不是空说,有凭为证:

拉曼大学校长致词: 

prof chua utar1.jpg

拉曼大学执委会:

utar u-council.jpg 

Board of Engineers 是聚集我国工程师的平台。。。

bem.JPG 

当然其最高理事会有着最大决定权。。。。

而其中之一的理事就是蔡教授了!

好久不见。。。long time no see~~

 

这一篇,有香蕉人在阅读,我只好写双语。。。顺便挑战一下自己。。。呵呵!!

This post, the readers consist of bananas and non-bananas....so I challenge myself to write in dual languages.....

 

 

我们只懂冬至时,要吃汤圆. 为何吃?有知乎?

We, as Chinese, or non-Chinese, do we really know about winter solstice?

我们都懂二十四节令鼓....

We all know about 24 seasons drums...isn't it??

二十四节令。。。指的是什么呢?

Well, what does that "24 seasons" mean??

二十四节令鼓是我们祖先的智慧,它们分别为:

A solar term is one of 24 points in traditional East Asian lunisolar calendars that matches a particular astronomical event or signifies some natural phenomenon.

 

立春、雨水、惊蛰、春分、清明、谷雨;

Start of spring, rain water, awakening of insects, vernal equinox, clear and bright, grain rain;

立夏、小满、芒种、夏至、小暑、大暑;

Start of summer, grain full, grain in ear, summer solstice, minor heat, major heat;

立秋、处暑、白露、秋分、寒露、霜降;

Start of autumn, limit of heat, white dew, autumnal equinox, cold dew, frost descent;

立冬、小雪、大雪、冬至、小寒和大寒。

Start of winter, minor snow, major snow, WINTER SOLSTICE, minor cold, major cold.

 

 

所谓的冬至,就是节气的其中一节!以下就是一些简介:

Typically, the winter solstice we mean, is actually one of the points in solar terms~

冬至,又稱「賀冬」、「冬節」,夏曆二十四節氣之一,傳統上冬至半月是喜慶氣氛濃重的節期。冬至日這一天,北半球黑夜最長,白晝最短,故又稱「長至 」(夜長至,或稱日短至)。冬至日的前夜稱為「冬至夜」。冬至日是數九寒天的第一天,俗諺「冬至交九」,從冬至日開始即進入「數九天」。古時冬至節氣是計算二十四節氣的起點。因冬至節以往是僅次於新年的重要節日,所以又俗稱「亞歲」。在民間廣泛流傳着「冬至大如年」的說法,意指冬至的禮俗如同過新年春節一樣隆重。冬至還有「新正」、「如正」、「喜冬」、「交冬」、「消寒節」、「一陽節」、「履長節」 等稱謂。

It was a few days ago........should be Friday i think...

Where we, the Cyber MMU-ians were bored with Cyber Kopitiam, SK Ming Chu and Dengkil Restaurant...

So we decided to go to a malay restaurant in Dengkil....

BROOM...BROOM...BROOM~~~~~~!!! READY??

Image101_resize.jpg

Dengkil is actually a place near Cyberjaya and Putrajaya. The chinese name for Dengkil is 龙溪...It's "Dragon's River"!!

Not sure who named it but surely the one who named it was so artistic~~

The place we went to is famous with its TOM YAM soup~

Maybe the secret recipe is the dragon's blood from DRAGON's RIVER....=.=''''

As you can see...I don't know the name....but if you come from Cyber, this place is at your right hand side.....after the RI RI SHENG Restaurant~ 

MALEE or YALEE?? As long as you see a huge lit-up mug and a lit-up TOMYAM traditional bowl...there it is!

Image070_resize.jpg Image071_resize.jpg

Well, we walked in like the celebrities where The Malays stared at us like aliens...(Not so serious la~)

No doubt, we were the only Chinese customers by that time...

Image072_resize.jpg

The dinner started with KEROPOK.....This hand was moving so fast until camero can't be able to capture the movement!

Aiyo....still gt lotz la....relax~~

NOW YOU SEE.....

Image073_resize.jpg

NOW YOU DON'T!

Image081_resize.jpg

The menu not that bad, maybe js lack some pictures...all the drinks not that cheap....

Image075_resize.jpg

Someone ordered ICE KACANG.....where the snowy ice was covered with DRAGON's BLOOD~

Image078_resize.jpg  

Well, there were still other Chinese customers at there....means that the restaurant quite well known and acceptable by other races too...

 Image084_resize.jpg

TOM YAM Soup, Telur Dadar...and DAGING MERAH.....

It was yesterday evening.

I was sleeping while someone woke me up for something~

I got into the car....in blur condition....

And then finally, I reached the destination...(js nearby only lar~~seems like very far...haha~)

The MMU Swimming Pool Complex!!

The complex was officiated and launched a day before the 1st trimester....and yesterday....the 6th day of 2nd trimester...

was the 1st time for me to be at here.

Let's back to the past. The day before the 1st Trimester 08/09 of MMU started....

Our "beloved" MMU president, Prof. Dr. Zaharin Yusoff and a high-post guy from TM, Tan Sri Dato’ Ir Muhammad Radzi Haji Mansor were the 1st batch of homo-sapiens who swam in the pool. And of course, they officiated the pool in naked body with swimming trunks only...

 

     

Ok! now back to the story~~

The pic below shows the attirement to swim~~We are quite disappointed when we saw that bikini and "less-cloth" swimming suit are not available for gals~ Haha...Well, in-campus swimming pool, what to do?

For student, you need to pay RM1 to enter. Staff is RM2, and Guest would be RM3. It means outsider can swim too~

Well, we bought the ticket earlier and we were in!

-View of pool at 6pm-

My friends said that it's a olympic-sized SWIMMING POOL. Well, what the hell is that?

Here is the answer:

A simplified diagram of the FINA long course swimming pool standard, used at the World Championships and Summer Olympics. (Pic Above)

Brief requirements:

Length 50 m (164 ft)[4]
Width 25 m (82 ft)[4]
Number of Lanes 10[4]
Lane Width 2.5 m (8.2 ft)[4]
Water Temperature 25–28°C (77–82.4°F)[4]

Depth 2.0 m (6.6 ft) minimum[4]

2,500,000 L (550,000 imp gal/660,000 US gal)
minimum, depending on depth[4

Thanks to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_size_swimming_pool!

That was the 1st day of the new trimester!

As it's only a short trimester, we only take 2 to 3 subjects...means we have more free time to lepak and play!

The 1st night of the new trimester, we had a great dinner to celebrate the beginning of 2 months war~

THE BUFFET STEAMBOAT!

 

Date: 10-11-2008

Time: 8.00pm

Venue: Yuen Buffet Steamboat, Subang

Price: around RM20!!!!

I had reserved the space in my stomach all for this. It's time to ROCK-N-ROLL!

The time I entered the shop was the peak time for dinner.

You can see PEOPLE MOUNTAIN PEOPLE SEA!

What's so famous about here?? This is because:

1) The Chicken Wings damn nice!

2) The price is reasonable.

3) The stock is always refilled.

4) Air conditioned and Comfortable.

5) IT's UNLIMITED BUFFET!!

What was really surprising us were the chicken wings!! Taste like Unagi Sauce, and the Wings were well bbq~

The chicken wings were refilled every 10 minutes as the wings will be grabbed till finish by the hungry ghosts around js in few seconds time!

No more queueing when it comes to food. Just ATTACK!!

There were lots of food to choose, from land to sea till the sky!

The "BOAT" can be separated, half for TOM YAM SOUP, half for NORMAL SOUP, then the fire is ON and the STEAM appears~

That will form the word "STEAMBOAT"!

This will be the last post for the trip.

-4.15pm-

After leaving the Bukit Merah Laketown, we headed to Taiping.....

We didnt take any our lunch yet, so of cuz, our main target was FOOD!

Where to take? Don't know..just drove in Taiping town, then suddenly saw this...

4pm something was an odd time for LUNCH, nvm, cincai a bit, so we stopped there to eat something...

At least, I have visited TESCO TAIPING!

Everything inside was new, I think this branch js started to operate in few months time....

Coincidently, while leaving, we saw a building besides Tesco Taiping and we needed to go to the pharmacy shop to buy something too....the place we banged in is TAIPING MALL~!

   

Well, something that grabbed my attention was the cinema...I was wondering GSC, TGV or Cathay...??

Who knows is....

STAR SCREEN CINEMA! The design and decorations all look like GSC...even the name they only changed to STAR instead of GOLDEN!

Well, those places were not our actual destination.

We continued our journey to the Taiping hot site, where the Zoo, Maxwell Hell, Taiping Lake, the Cemetery site are located at here.

-7.00pm-

We just passed by the Taiping Lake Garden....

    

The right pic above searched from net de, cuz we were driving and did not hv chances to take pic...

Well, we did stop by at the WAR CEMETERY...hohoho~

    

Taiping War Cemetery (Malay: Tanah Perkuburan Perang Taiping) is a notable war graveyard during World War II. Located in Bukit Larut (formally Maxwell's Hill), Taiping, Perak, Malaysia. Many soldiers, including Royal Malay Regiment, Gurkha, British and Australian troops, were killed during Japanese Invasion of Malaya. This graveyard was erected by Commonwealth War Graves Commission. --- Wikipedia

Well, the place was nice and the gate was unlocked. We sneaked in to take some pictures~=.=

 

-8.00pm-

We were the 1st batch to reach Taiping Zoo for the Night Safari on that day.

The Night Safari operates form 8pm to 12am.

OK! continue!

After the Orang Utan Island, we proceeded with the ECO PARK!

At here, no need to explain so much....all the animals and living things in the ecosystem can be seen!

 I didn't really memorize those animals' names~~These are what we have seen!

  

        

  

     

Monkeys, Crocodiles, Iguana, Snakes, Tortoises, Squirrels,  Big big de fishes....

and of course some tame animals~

     

     

Well, there were no staffs at there restricted us to do anything. So we were js free to catch them and play around with them. I even tried to think of moving the tortoise to join the rabbits and maybe we can have a show of "The Race of Rabbit and Tortoise"....=.=''''

The picture below on right...they really looked alike~they are brothers, not twins!

    

It;s not much impressive as most of the animals are the common type~

Well, we better moved to the next theme park, The Water Park!

We took the Chairlift, a twin-seater cable chair ride to Water Park... It's noon and our ass-es almost got burnt~

    

Spectacular view of Bkt Merah lake can be seen....but it was noon time and the sun shone brightly..we din really open our eyes~

At the Water Park, of cuz we played water lo....din take lot pics cuz we kept our cameras in locker. Open one time needs RM2 de a~

    

End the post with this "special" pic....guess he was so HIGH!

 

To be continued....

I have decided to post this entry in English.

Date: 03-11-2008

Time: 9am-12am

Destination: Bukit Merah and Taiping

Transport: Peroduo MyVi PGX 3457

Participants: Sherlyn, Soon Meng, Soon Keat, Juin Hau and me

 

This trip was well planned at first but there were always ups and downs during the journey. Hoho~

-9.45am-

Anticipating the arrival of that silver coloured MyVi, which had carrried 4 humans along the way from Penang Island and Bukit Mertajam to my house.

Finally, deng deng deng...

Why is it night time? No la..this is because the picture was taken at night. Js wanna show the pic of the car to you....hehe

So, what's next? Of course breakfast time!!

Well, I was thinking to bring them to the place that at least got something special but seriously, Parit Buntar doesn't seems to have famous food....besides our Laksa and Char Koay Teow quite not bad...

Cin cai lar...Laksa la....Early morning, go to eat the BAN LONG laksa at the little "franchise" stall lo~

Seems like they loved it...Now, we are fully energized! Luckily the petrol price dropped RM0.15 again....and this helped lotz in saving our expenses for transportation.

After 20 minutes drive, we reached the destination!

-11.15am-

There are 3 theme parks at here:

1) Water Park

2) Eco Park

3) Orang Utan Island

Due to the official website, the entrance fees for all there parks is RM39.

But, the water park is under construction. So, the sliding spots and all the exciting and fascinating facilities were CLOSED! We already brought the clothes and towel, prepared well for WATER!...cincai la...
