Penang retreat (part 1)


I'm so extremely happy to be back in Penang after a year. Gosh I even scream! So let's go a lil bit back before that..

I'm so stressed of a lot of thing week before, I even sobbing at my best friend who came all the way from Johor, a weekend before, because i held in so much. But along that week, Yu seungwoo released a duet song with Younha, Picnic (여름밤 픽닉) which i translate it as Summer Night Picnic if my Korean is correct. It is so sweet and i feel like I have to reach him somehow. So i suddenly remembered about Sungha Jung, one of his best friend as far as i know, coming to Malaysia...

I posted in twitter asking if i should go to Sungha Jung's event, and Herlin replied me she said she's looking for company. Great~! Things happening, we bought vip tickets and waiting for weekend to come...

Honestly the journey to Penang was what excites me the most at the beginning. It's been a year! While I was driving all the way to Penang, memories flood in. Memories in Genting with family, Cameron Highland with Kulim housemates, my almost-solo journey in Kampar, train & bus rides, and so many things happening during 5 years back and forth of lebuhraya utara-selatan E1.

And i realized it later, it was exactly 1 day short, of 6 years ago when it was my 1st trip to continue studying in Kedah.. what a coincidence!

When I reached Penang Bridge, I really, literally scream AHHHHH PENANG!! I'M HERE~!!! i was smiling all the way on bridge. Penang has always been my favorite place for my escapee. Whether it's for event or just my random stress-reliever. But to name few names, i had good memories related to Henley, Fuying and Sam, Alvin, and Soo Wincci (though only FS happened at island. Those drenched-in-rain memories!)

I just put my phone on phone holder but i didn't open my waze (always lost my way in Penang!). Still, i follow the direction to Komtar because i have something to find there. End up i just know Prangin Mall is just besides Komtar! But phewwww  250616 weather in Penang was extremely HOT!!

I met Herlin at noon there, while we wait for Sungha Jung. We talked more than last time we met. And we met this time, it's exactly during fasting month too! Like last year! (Continue)
