49. Filler Feeder

Friends & Family
The 50th post shall be the final stage for the year 2008. Might not necessarily be posted by 1st of January. But it shall serve as an ending and an opening to the ought-to-be magnificent year 2009. So..let's fill up the gap and feed some fun into our souls.

Wokei..we did it with almost a cancellation due to the rain. Penang Hill hike, until point 84. Good for YW, catching up with all our outdoor activities. With wet, muddy and slippery terrains...and uncountable slippings on the rocks we braved the jungle with landslide sites. It was a spiritual journey though this time. With Albert.

Some sort of crazy affinity. Just after getting out of the toilet, this dog appeared to have already set the target of keeping an extra company. He's totally our main source of amusement. Taking care of each other and concerns of safety and accompaniment. Good dog. YW is writing on it, the post will be out soon. With plenty of photos and one or two videos. Sadly, we had to leave it. Albert, we salute you. See you again someday.

And, having a mum who works in that big company brings a lot of benefit. Good advantage. You know that Jesselton mansion owner, yeah he's the owner of the company. First, I got free tickets to PESSOC performance but of course no dining there we're not VIPs. And then, being an honourable employee who regularly patronizes Miraku(also owned by that company) in G-Hotel my mother got a very nice and good service from the chief manager for our dinner.

First, he served us two complimentary plates of tauhu dishes. Then he came in again and served a plate of mixed vegetables, we told him we didn't ordered that and he replied, "it's complimentary, miss". Wah. Minutes later, he came AGAIN to serve a plate of deepfried chicken. I lost my sanity. Is this some kind of "poh lampa/chibai" treatment or just very good appreciation and regard. Or is he afraid that my mum came to audit the restaurant secretly. In the end, he came for the final compliment, the great-tastebud-buster green tea ice cream and some jelly dessert. WTF

That dinner actually had a cash voucher already and yet we're getting stupendous good amount more of food. Too much to not to be wasted, all into our stomachs with pride and joy. Except, with exceptionally small oesophagus, small stomach and slow digestion didn't manage to lick the plates grease-free. I love you mum muahaha

And then, getting a micro splinter into my palm. Dig. Scrape. Bleed. Tear. Push. Pull. Needle. Antiseptic. Fingernail. Biting the towel. Aaah nice pain.

NEXT:
1. Hooi's gig.
2. G3 jamming 2 at YW's + New Year boozing with KY
3. CNY shopping
4. Packing and settling necessities for return to MIAT
5. Leave once again
6. Return for CNY haha
7. Fitness regularity for Mt. Kinabalu expedition

ah..my knees. So sad. Weak ligaments and hmm..maybe weakened synovial cushioning. I can't give up hiking I tell you or any other tougher outdoor sports activities. It's like losing your fingers as guitar player.

Happy end year 2008
