Europe Trip

I went to Europe for a wonderful trip. This trip was plan by my mother and she was looking forward to it. Anyway, we fulfilled her wish by going on this long awaited trip. We went around Europe. We visited countries like Germany, Italy, Switzerland and France. On the tour we met other people from around the world. The majority were Australians. However, there were also Canadians, Americans, South Africans, Filipinos and us Malaysians.

The country that I like the most was Germany and Switzerland because of its undulating hills and picturesque view. Also lakes there are clean and have fresh water from the mountains. However, for those who appreciate arts and sculptures Italy is the place to be. The place we visited like Vatican, Coliseum, Louvre and Versailles are rich in history and the buildings left behind are impressive and magnificent. As it can be seen the Roman Empire was powerful and the people living at that time were barbarians. I saw the Mona Lisa painting by Leornado Da Vince(heard that someone stole it and the painting was found in Florence).

In Switzerland, we were taken to a typical Swiss Village. There it was a great experience away from the hustle bustle of the city. We were taken on a horse drawn carriage. I enjoyed myself being at the country side because it was laid back, relaxing and serene plus the air was fresh. It was an unforgettable experience seeing the community closely knit. It was a lovely day.

After the tour, we stayed 2 more nights in London. We watched the musical Mamma Mia(a must see musical). It was recommended to us by a few people. Anyway the story is simple and easy to understand with all the ABBA music fitted into the scenes. The props, lighting, ensemble and cast were fantastic. The musical cannot be missed. I won't be a spoiler, so rate it yourself when the movie shows in the theatre. If one can catch it live I recommend. The dancing is cheoreographed so nicely. It was really entertaining.

Friends who are in my heart.

This blog is dedicated to a few of my friends. I would like to highlight a few people Prasana, Carmen, Ruth, Andrew Chan, Zee How, Andre, Shaun, Yin Fei, Vingie, Yee Mun and some others. You all should know who you are.

I do not know why at times I feel very emotional. This is going to be dedicated to a few of the people mention above. I would like to thank all my friends who gave me support and comforted me during my mum’s death and send condolences. I am really grateful.

Also, to some people out there, thanks for giving me advice when I am feeling down or just not myself. I really appreciate it and would go all out to improve for the better. I know you mean well to me. Therefore, feel something should be said.

Moreover, thanks for always being there when I need you and always ready to lend me your ear.

In addition, I really appreciate all of your friendship. All of you are in my heart.
Thank You.

A day at Penang Hill





Pic above: Dining in the garden of David Browns restaurant.
The view of the city from the peak of the hill.



Last weekend my dad decided to take us to Penang Hill. As, it rained for the past few days, the city could be seen clearly. It was a family outing. We took the tram on the way up. It took us about 30 minutes to reach the top. By the time, we were there our tummies were rumbling for food. Since we hadn't been up there for a while I brought my new pink camera and captured lots of photos. It was great to be away from the hustle bustle of the city and to breathe in fresh and unpolluted air. At Penang Hill we had lunch at David Browns restaurant. David Browns is another branch opened by the owner of Smoke House inn in Cameron Highlands. This place is known for serving authentic western cuisine. The food was tasty and there is a wide selection of food.However, it is a little bit pricy but it is once in a while so indulge. Anyway, we spent the afternoon up there till abt 4pm then used another route(the route that hikers use to reach the top). There were many people hiking up. Anyway some of these pictures would tell a thousand words about our outing there.
Enjoy seeing the pictures. Hope my taking picture skills are good.

Yeah! Exams are over

Time really flies. I just finish my finals for semester 7 and results would be out next week. It just give me the jitters. I remember the first time walking into college and now, I have finished and moving ahead. Life is going really fast.Hopefully I would do well. I'll leave the rest to GOD for him to give me whatever is the best for me.
Anyway, I was glad to enter college. Life isn't so hectic and my time table is considered flexible without any tuition classes and extra curricular activities. Initially I remember I had difficulty mixing with some friends but along the way we were united. Also, it was never too late to get to know one another.
As the time comes for me to move on. We have to part. Some of them have one more semester, others are either in UK, Aussie, or any other part of the world and another handful want to gain experience working then continue studying later.
Good Luck to everyone(Gambate) and hopefully we would meet again.
PS: would post pictures of my life at INTI College.
