Vacation started by waking up early to go take out blood samples from the body at PathLab. What a good way to kick start a vacation right? Haha. Why so sudden you ask? Nah, I just like the secure feeling that my body is healthy. :) The fasting period made me so hungry omgg especially when I first woke up in the morning. It was like...torture. Then I distracted myself by updating December Pink, my online store. Do check it out on Facebook/ Instagram @decemberpinkk :) and if any of my readers have any suggestions to make, feel free to tell me! :)
When the needle poked into my flesh, it felt like a bee's sting or an ant's bite. To those who never got bitten by an ant before, it is not exactly the no feeling kind of feeling. It's like someone pinching you but on a smaller surface area. Hurts at first like a pinch as I said. Then it will fade away. Hopefully I described well. :)
Then had breakfast at the food court opposite Wooley. Had soya bean and this bowl of lovely sliced chicken hor fun :)
Time to head to the famous Penang Island! :) To be honest, I've rarely been to this famous island in Malaysia. Well I meant I rarely explore this island even though I come visit my uncle here sometimes. So I am pretty excited! :)

Pretty isn't it? :) |
Upon arrival, it was already time for lunch! Yes, food trip meant lots of food lah. Be prepared to have all your salivary glands activated as the upcoming food posts will make you feel hungry and your stomach will growl. (Okay lah, maybe exaggerated a bit haha) Lunch was @
Sininam Thailand Restaurant located in Bayan Lepas. There's a lot of food stores to choose from in Bayan Lepas. Ranging from Japanese to Indian. ;) The food here is pretty good. Had
ulam for appetiser and i don't know if it's only me, but I have never tried ulam before. And it tastes pretty good. All you just do is to dip fresh vege like cucumber into a special sauce(belacan) made up of lemon , chilli (and maybe prawn gravy/paste?) Well it's a special sauce like I said haha.
For main, we had white tomyam, Thai style steamed fish, Cashewnut chicken and Belacan vege. (P.S sorry that I didn't take any of the food pictures above cause I totally forgot when the food arrived) Was too attracted to the food that our forks and spoons were already moving so fast, like an eating competition haha. I even had two bowls of rice, imagine that!
Checked in to our hotel, Eastin Hotel also located at Bayan Lepas :) Just a five minute walk from Queensbay Mall. And the best thing is they have FREE WIFI! throughout the hotel :) Since mummy was at the Toastmaster Convention, and we don't really like to shop without our shopping companion, we decided to go for a dip in the pool! The pool is nice and just the right size. Not too small.

Not a good idea, so here goes. This was after the swim. It is obvious! Just look at the eyes! |

Sister and I before heading out :) |
After the swim, got ready and headed out to fetch mummy from her hotel in
Batu Feringghi for dinner. :) Went to The Ship a very nice decorated restaurant nearby there. It's really like a themed restaurant with waiters and waitresses all dressed as the cabin crew. The ambience was very cosy and warm. Too bad the lighting there was pretty dark so the photos didn't turn out that well. Ate like non stop haha. I had a
Fillet Mignon steak. Yums. It had a piece of bacon on top of it which made it double yums! Hehe. I also ordered ice cream after the main course ~ chocolate temptation. The pricing here is pretty reasonable compared to other restaurants. Had dessert as well ~
Chocolate Temptations.

Failed at acting cool. I can't live without my smile haha |
