It’s been awhile since my last post, yours truly has been busy as a bee. Work has been taking a big chunk out of me. I was really exhausted until the extend I used to ask myself when I wake up, do I really need to go work today. It was bad, working 12 hrs, working weekends. I was running low, until the extend, I decided, I cant take anymore of 12 hrs work each day, I needed a mini holiday… And I took one, been missing Penang a lot, its actually been like 3 years since I actually had more than a day visit to the island, so I decided, why not visit old friends, relive those care free semester start college days.
Flew there last weekend and had the time of my life, food was great as always. Nasi Kandar in Rafi and Shauban, reminded me why I don’t eat nasi kandar in KL at all. The Nasi Kandar in KL sucks big time, the closest I have got to Penang food was not in a nasi kandar shop but in a byrani shop in Taman Tun. I also had a visit to Gurney Drive’s (its beside gurney plaza) hawker stalls, where I use to have my dinner during the 3 years I was in Penang. Also managed to have lunch in the small Thai restaurant opposite Sheraton Hotel where I took my best budz Kelvin, Reena and Khairul when we went on our day trip to Penang. Each time I ate, I stuffed myself. Im on a diet now.
Meeting up with all my old mates was great, me and Dennis had great time playing Battlefield and Counter Strike. We used to do that a lot after classes a few years back. Had drinks with Lucas Ah Bai and a few others. Mange to catch up with them, most of them work in different ends of the island and don’t meet often, so it was a good opportunity for all.
I was able to let loose and let go of all the stress work and life brings. For the 4 days, I was in Penang, I felt free as a bird. Doing as I like, with no care of time, it felt good.
I would suggest a mini holiday to everyone, revisit the place that you miss. Hometown, the town/city you studied, a holiday location you really liked, just take a few days off work, and go. Life is too short to live in constant stress. Break free and enjoy life for abit!
