Helluva Halloween 2011

"Halloween is coming town!" Wait! Not christmas la! hahaa... Anyway, the Halloween celebration is now onwards until 31st October! Halloween was known as the western ghost festival which full with horror scene. But now the modern life, where got ghost? hahaha... This festival was just main for celebration and have fun of course!

Again I saw the celebration decoration at Queensbay Mall on yesterday. I still remember on the year 2009 I was there snapping for the halloween event. Two years had passed, this year I was there after my graduation ceremony at school. I was walking around the mall and saw the decoration there.

The design was themed as Helluva! Halloween. Same theme as previous years but different design. This year the design was full of spiders, above the stage still have the spider web and some spiders on top. I was like the design and it was unique produced by the organizer! Good job.

Yea... That's the stage view! The stage was designed with the pumpkins and some cemetery grave which full the words R.I.P or anything, turn the atmosphere like halloween night. But actually it was the design from the organizer! I like the design very much. So how are you going to celebrate this coming Halloween? Have fun on it! =) Horror! Posted by GenYong 29.10.2011

Helluva Halloween @ Queensbay Mall

Last Saturday everyone had celebrated Halloween. In Penang, the shopping malls also organized some programs about Halloween. The well-known Gurney Plaza and Queensbay Mall were hold a Halloween event in their place properly. The Penangites were so lucky have the choice where to go celebrate... Even though the new shopping complex -Penang Times Square also celebrate this Halloween Day.

The stage covered with the Halloween decorations which full of bats, big pumpkins, spiders and some haunted homes. It's a nice decorations and I like the name which called 'Helluva Halloween' sounds like welcome Halloween. Helluva=Hello? XD!

There was crowded of people watching the performances. Most of the parents brought their children to see this annual celebration. Some auntie uncle were waiting for their child who had taken part in the contest to get the result. Everyone sat down waiting for the result to be announced.

A group of popular dancers (DANZITY) were participate in this event too. They dressed the Halloween costumes and acting like a ghost to get playful with public. Many of the people would like to take photos with them. *Actually they're invited to perform a Halloween dance and they did something to entertain the people and mentioned that It's Halloween!

After the long waiting, the result finally out. The Master of Ceremony announced the winners and they came in front to the stage and received the prizes. I really admired at those winners dare to dressed like a ghost and won out in this contest! It's amazing and it's not an easy job too!

At last the champion goes to the little girl who's only 10 years old. She dressed a lot of decoration and it's seems like a tree. When I walked there, I felt weird why got a tree beside the stage and later when the MC announced I just realized that she's a participant too!

So what you celebrate on Halloween Day? Act as a ghost and scare people? XD. Posted by GenYong 06.11.2009

Inside Penang Times Square

I had make my first time step into Penang Times Square. This complex had opened in the mid year if not mistaken and I have no chance to step into there. I can say that the complex have not yet officially opened up. Seems a lot of units still empty and not many people shop out there. I am looking forward for the new Sunshine City opening in the complex and bring in more people to shop out there.

I walked from the Siam Road after I done being my payment to the suppliers. Then I stood opposite road and snapped this shot. As I can imagine that this will be a huge building with luxury style in future 5 years. Hope to see that happening in Georgetown!

I walked pass the road and enter the main entrance. I know why this complex not many people likes it. One of the reason maybe is the traffic congested in way to KOMTAR. Not enough parking lots also cause the problem occurred. I hope before the Sunshine City open, this problem should no longer be there!

I saw this welcoming tag at the door entrance before the lifts. When I first walked in, I thought it was a hotel lobby and have a lift going up to the condominium. Anyway, I love the environment and building structure. It seems like another Gurney Plaza.

Outside the building there have a big space for events. I think this place can put up more than 10K people. Besides that I think it's a good place to hold a concert or any function too. That day when I went, there was no function going on. That's why so empty!

In front of the stage, you can see the fountain which contain of water flying out there. It's a nice decoration and also a creative sign. I think the Flea Market were no longer hold on there and now there just put it empty and wait for the next function to come. Besides of these, there also have some creative designs but my camera not enough battery and I failed to snap it!

They were holding their halloween celebration in the square too. They function hall was quite small and I think can just suit in some of the people. The area not bad! I love it's escalator which can sensor automatically and move it when people walked through. It's an advance technology and firstly found in Penang Island! Good job, Ivory.

The Events Management was holding a Halloween Drawing Contest for Kids. It's not like some shopping malls holding the Halloween costumes competition. I think Penang Times Square next year will be holding this event as well... Looking forward. By the way, I wish Penang Times Square can get a lot of business in future and begin it's life from 2010!
