Time
It's weird how fast time can pass... When you have a dateline to meet.. when you know you've got a specifically allocated number of hours in one place.. when you're too busy to look at the clock.. If you're living on a routine time can pass faster than you know it.. You cant tell if it's been 2 days or 5 days since everyday is almost the same. But sometimes time seem to pass too slowly. The clock works fine.. and there are still 60 minutes in an hour, 60 seconds in a minute, yet it can feel so different.
The past weekend went by all too quickly. But it was FUN :) (or maybe 'because' it was fun..) TK and SF came over from Singapore for a weekend getaway and I was supposed to be the 'tourist guide'. But to be honest, I think it felt more like we were 3 tourists visiting Penang instead :p And what's so great about playing tourist in Penang? The FOOD of course! Hee~
And so, in that 48 hours, we've managed to eat: Penang Laksa (TK's first time!! Haha.. He cant believe he's been missing out on it the past 20+ yrs of his life!) Had Char Kuey Teow and Penang Road Cendol (again!!! :D) Also had Nasi Kandar, Loh Mee, Ban Chan Kuih, Pasembur, Kangkung with Sotong, Otak-otak and Chicken Wings. (Missed out on the roti(s) and mee goreng.) Seriously it felt like the trip was almost all for eating..
We even managed to take a 'wrong' bus to a 'wrong stop' (the bus conductor was either playing a prank on us or he got our destination wrong). It was certainly a new experience for me.. Haha.. but I guess in times like this, if you've got the right company, it doesnt really matter where you end up, you'll still end having enjoying yourself.. or at least I did! :)
Managed to get Indonesian Layer Cake (though I didnt get to eat it :p) and catched a movie during that time too :) But I guess the best part was still catching up with old friends and spending time together.. If only I could do this with all my friends..
Oh well.. I guess that's just wishful thinking. Everybody's asking me when I'm going to KL.. Sigh. I wish I know too..
Good news: I've got company for my long haul flight trip back to TO :)
