Hip and Happening Day…

The release of final exam results had made me restless the whole night yesterday. UTAR should SERIOUSLY consider upgrading their bandwidth access to the UTAR portal, release the results earlier in the day, or consider ‘automatic’ restart of server during the release of results…

By the way, I did quite well in the finals… not 4.0 but at least I’m happy, as compared to previous semester. I certainly had put in more effort last sem… except for my protein and proteomics… ^.^

Finally, it RAINED!!! SOOOO… HAPPY!!!

But then again, had to go to Penang today… Thank god I wasn’t drenched.

Adventure around Penang is interesting when you walk instead of drive. I walked all the way from the pier to Perangin Mall. Here’s a store I wanted to recommend those would like to read books but do not intend to buy new ones….

THE SECONDHAND BOOK STORE

It’s located somewhere near Perangin Mall and along the way there, you can buy something from the morning market… Look for Jalan Chowrasta.

You can get quite a lot of books over there – Medical books, school books, old magazines… I even spotted some National Geographic Magazines from year 1977!!!

Then, I went to see my dealer for my photography tools and finally got my hands on the reverse ring. Thank god it didn’t cost me a fortune, and I’m glad that I can now shoot macros without having to manually hold the lens anymore…

So, later in the day, I met up with Jeffery and we went for a bit of touring around Penang. I shot this along Gurney Drive…
