A Wonderful Teluk Bahang Trip

It was happened on last Friday also, cool I wondered how come last Friday I was so active in outing! Hahaa. However I need to thank you Rapid Penang for providing me the opportunity to travel Teluk Bahang for my first time there! I went to Teluk Bahang after my Gurney Plaza random shopping, it was the hot afternoon which sun shines brightly on the sky!

Tesco Tanjung Pinang

Penang Swimming Club

It takes up me about 2 hours of time to travel there. But from Gurney Plaza to there which I hop on the bus 101 it takes me 30 minutes to reach the national park at Teluk Bahang. On the road I was sitting on the bus and enjoy looking on the nice scenery of seaview! As well I took photos along my trip to Teluk Bahang.

Yes that's me on the bus! My expression was weird due to the hot weather and the sun shines brightly to my face! Along the trip to Teluk Bahang, there was a lot crooked road to Batu Ferringhi. It was quite exciting when sitting on the bus, seems like sitting on roller coaster! xD Along the way to Teluk Bahang, I had travel along those hotels in Batu Ferringhi such as Lone Pine, Golden Sands, Hard Rock, Park Royal and many more!

Yes here I come! Finally I had arrived at Teluk Bahang National Park. The bus stopped in front of the entrance and the driver showed me the way to National Park. It was free of charge and I just have some random visit to the seaside. I like the sea jetty there which built by the fishermen there! It looks pretty cool.

These are some random shots before I walked on the jetty and out to the sea. The scenery there was so nice and of course the seaside there was clean and fresh. The sea water was much better compare to Gurney Drive or Queensbay... It looks so clear and clean. Really a nice place!

Yup! I was standing on the jetty which covered to the front part of the sea. The feeling was so cool when I was standing on top of the sea and looking around. I was very careful and take care of my belongings to prevent any of them fall into sea! 

A nice scenery view there. It's a long distance from the seaside to the end of the jetty, I didn't walk until the end because I was afraid. I was not confirm whether the structure of jetty is stable or not, if not stable I will fall into sea then! xD. There were a lot of fisherman ships or fish boats there. I think this is also a place for all the fishermen in Teluk Bahang to gather!

I missed the beautiful scenery there. It's a good place to have the portrait shot there too, especially for those couples who are planning to have a series of couple shots. Nice and Natural! I was first time there and really get attracted by the beautiful scenery, it's located at the top north of Penang Island! 

After visited the National Park, I walked out from there which is the Teluk Bahang fishing village. All the residents there were friendly to guide those tourists in visiting their place and also sent us the warm welcome. The road there was straight and low traffic, it's a nice and peace place to stay and visit!

Before I leave that place, I took some memorable photos to show that I been there before! However, it's really a nice place and you can put yourself in natural if you're living there! I hope one day I can own myself a house near Teluk Bahang so I can always visit to Penang National Park! =)

Hard Rock Hotel

it's by the sea, coming soon in this year! It's located at Batu Ferringhi which plays the role to become a luxury seaside resort too. Will check it out when it is open! So do you like Penang Teluk Bahang? I love it very much and really thank god for giving me a chance to visit there! Posted by GenYong 17.05.2012

6Celcious Tea and Snacks

From previous post, I had mentioned about the 6Celcious tea right? Here is the some introduction about this brand! 6Celcious was found in Malaysia I think it's from KL but until now I just saw it opened in Penang Gurney Plaza. 6Celcious served drinks such like tea, coffee and also snacks, it is a good place to have tea time!

I visited 6Celcious last Friday while I was walking around in Gurney Plaza. This store is located at the 6th floor of Gurney Plaza which sharing the same floor with Big Apple Donuts, Subway, CoolBlog and Old Town. The concept store is not big but it can be the comfortable place for you to have the good tea time!

What's the special one can be found in 6Celcious? Since I was first time visit, I had chosen the original brand from 6 Celcious. That was the Cincau Roasted Milk Tea. Cincau means Grass Jelly in some other tea outlets such as Chatime... Well, the drink taste nice and special because it contains of the icy stuffs which like a ice ball inside the drink!

The concept store's design was so cool and fully coloured with the theme of purple and pink. Looks similar like Chatime's concept. Anyway, inside the store there were a lot of privileges for students, workers in Gurney Plaza or office workers. Which means student with student card can get 10% discount from the drinks, office workers can get the FREE Delivery drinks and many more!

When you get bored of drinking Chatime, actually you can change the taste to 6Celcious and try out their special one! There is a drinks ranking for your reference! The first one is the most popular one and it taste nice! I can rate it as 7/10 and it was only cost me RM 5.90 for regular size + 10% discount so total only RM 5.30! Worth it... Now you can check out their deals about the set which teas come with snacks too! 

Drinks in Gurney Plaza

Yo guys, I think I had settle down from my working life and started my study life again in college! College life was fun and I really can enjoy the moments of study! For the 1st semester, my college Friday does not have classes unless there are any replacement. So I was back to my secondary school Chung Ling High School to take a look and meet up my previous friends who studied in Form 6 as I posted on previous post!

After that I went to Gurney Plaza just for random movie but too bad my friend suddenly got things to do so I just cancelled it. So what I do in Gurney Plaza? Just hang out around, walk around for nothing! xD. I went to visit my previous colleagues in Chatime, chit chatting with them for nearly an hour. Cool!

As I took my camera along I will snap here and there, so I just walked around at Gurney Plaza and checked out their retailers shops. I found that Gurney Plaza seems to be more interesting than Queensbay Mall. The management of Gurney Plaza was good and they keep on maintaining the shopping mall and attract a lot of shoppers shop at there!

In Gurney Plaza there was a lot of desserts stores such as Chatime, ShareTea, 6Celcious, Meet Fresh, CoolBlog and many more... This few years the trend had changed from donuts to bubble tea and even to frozen yogurt now! Well, nowadays people used to spend up more to get dessert after a meal. That's why you can see when lunch time in Chatime Queensbay Mall there will have a long crowd outside the shop! So do you like that also? Posted by GenYong 15.05.2012

*I will post more about 6Celcious in following blog post.

New Look in Chung Ling

Hello everyone, I am back and I hope I can update my blog more frequently starting from now! Anyway, college life is really a big different from high school life! What's that differences? High School life was full of laughters, fun, noise and many more... High School we used to be naughty, hanged out around and so on made funny actions in school compound. These were all become the previous memories...

Last Friday I had visited back to my secondary school Chung Ling High School. Everything there had changed, changed to be more high standard in facilities, outlook and many things! It suits to be the international institution now! Really a good one.

From the new outlook, I get attracted to visit back my previous school. Somebody in early of the year still sharing on facebook said that Chung Ling High School is really a "Clean" school, why clean? Because yellow in Malaysia nowadays already become the famous "Bersih 2.0" theme colour. It was cool!

I was glad to see that the new school board of directors spent a lot of money on upgrading the school facilities. Although we no longer studying there, our hope is for our school can be better and nicer! The environment inside the school has improved a lot since last year. More trees growing, more facilities to use, more teachers and students studying there! That's the ChungLing big family! =)

Overall I can say that my high school had turned to be more awesome than last time! When I came to in front of the school hall, guess what I saw? I saw a unique things for both in front of the school hall. After I heard from my friend said those are the Feng Shui stuffs in order to make ChungLing turn more rich. I not very sure with that, but I hope that ChungLing get richer and share the rich moments with all the students ya! Posted by GenYong 14.05.2012

Vogue for Virtue 2012

Vogue for Virtue is the annual event for Queensbay Mall during the month of April. V is the theme! This event was also known as a charity fashion show that open to all the Malaysian especially Penangites to have their chance participating in modeling contest. This was also a major event for Queensbay Mall, every year the same place that's happening there!

On 21st April 2012, there was a charity fashion show took place in the Central Zone of Queensbay Mall! There were a few Malaysia popular celebrities like Amber Chia, Carmen Soo, Steve Yap, Hanson Lee and many more. From my opinion I think this charity fashion show is the way to show out the love or caring we had to the community and also to those who need!

Besides that there were some model search auditions which provided the platform for Penang handsome boys or pretty girls to perform themselves in modeling contest. From that on, they did the brands modeling fashion show on that day. Quite a number of retailing brands had sponsored in this event such as Jefferson, Poh Kong, Mirror, Padini, Springfield and many more!

I went to witness the show while I was having break time. When I was there the show is almost ended and it's the time to announce for winners. They whole central zone of Queensbay Mall were crowded of people since that day was also a Sunday, everyone came out and shopping! I would like to congratulate the winner for both categories which is male and female category!

Malaysia Popular Model Celebrities Amber Chia was there announced the winner for male category and given the award to the winner! I don't know his name but he was so handsome and many girls were mad on looking him and keep on screaming! The atmosphere there was quite high and everyone cheers when the winner has been announced!

At last before the ceremony ended, every participants had come out to show the congratulations to both winners of the year. Every participants were dressing nice and no wonder the judges said that it was hard to decide who is the winner. Although the winners has announced, every participants was showing their fully support to both winners and some of them promised to come back and participate in next year!

Yes, the group photo of the day! All the model search contestants had come out to have the group photo. In the event you could see there were a lot of pro photographers holding their DSLR with the multiple zoom lens and some cool gadgets. I was just standing at the back and snapped some random photos that's quite enough for myself! =) At least I can get something for my blog post.

After the event had ended, everyone grabs the chance to have a photo with Amber Chia. I didn't get involved in it and was just looking them for the photos. So as well, I just did some random shots on Amber Chia. I can say that Amber Chia is still looking young although she already had one son! This event was nice and I hope that it can be continue for the following years! Vogue for Virtue... =) Posted by GenYong 12.05.2012
