End of US Trip - Kean Yung's Farewell

OK, looks like seldom have reader nowadays, so this will be my last post of this blog. This also marks the end of my 7 months US relocation trip in year 2008. If I have mood/time and happens to have something interesting to write in Penang, then I may start a new "Penang Life 2009" blog!

Finally.. At last.. Eventually.. my turn for farwell. This time we went to Hooters restaurant where the attraction point is their waitress who must meet certain size of requirement. What does it mean? Please look at the photos below or visit the link (http://www.hooters.com/) -certain part of waitress's body should be drawing your eye attention now haha .They even have some kind of Miss Hooters contest every year. Wow, I have chance to take a photo shot with a nice and pretty waitress too. Personally, I think that the food is not bad and feel quite comfortable with the restaurant's environment (please... not because of waitress). :)

After the dinner, some friends continued to drop by my apartment to play some games with poker playing card and drink beer. We played "bluff", "snap", "numbering game" and etc with the penalty of painting the face with powder for loser. We all looked like funny crown after each game and laughters surrounded the air every now and then. PC dota LAN game was followed by card game till midnight. It was a really a wonderful night and I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to you all for this farewell. A BIG THANK YOU!!!

Well, 7 months of happiness and sadness, laughters and tears, joys and hardship moments in US come to an end and I will be back to Penang next week. I feel very proud of myself on what I have achieved for my work/job, for my master studies and even for my personal life experience during this period. Flasing back for this past one year, on the other hand, I encountered some painful experience, lots of ups and downs of personal life.. but life goes on and I managed to go through that; end up I become stronger and have a better/matured thinking. All theses experiences shapes what I am today! Last but not least, I feel glad to know lot of new friends here whom we enjoy working, traveling, sporting, gaming and share the laughters together. Keep in touch all my friends!!!

Just wanna take down all close/new friends' names here (sorry if I miss out you), and I just wanna to say THANK YOU again (lady first.. sequence does not matter la.. hehe):

Mei Ling, Shu Shan, Yan Nee, Chun Hou, Yee Chee, Ima, KC Chan, KC Goh, Chun Tan, Boon Cheong, Yee Seng, Yuree, Guan, Bong, Thong, Chee Yee, Yong Phing, Chung Lung, Jeffery, Seah, Chun Fui, Eng Liang, TC, Ching Phong, Ping Chye, Ee Wah...

Apart from that, we also treated this party as welcoming pary for new comers, post birthday celebration for few friends and farewell party to those who gonna back to Penang soon, and.. No matter for whatever reasons, the most important thing is we enjoyed a lot during the party. We have a big turkey, steamboat, beer, wine, poker game, wii game and board game. Well, I won poker again :) Yeah, it was really fun!!! Hmmm.. after I went back, I heard police came to kacau.. haha too noisy until neighboars complained but I guess we have no regret. LOL

4 stitches on my eye brows

What a luck today!!! Elbowed by my friend on my eye brows during basketball game and blood spilled over my face and my shirt. Steadily and slowly fetched by Yee Chee to emergency room and needed 4 stitches. OMG... Nevertheless, who else will be as happy as me in ER (please see the photo)? hahaha Eyes still swollen. tired and hurt but not a big deal. Don't worry!

Well, just told by my friend that scar on eye brows will bring bad luck to career. Hmmm I am next candidate for VSS during this economy recession period? Luckily, Doctor told me that no scar will be seen as eye brow will cover it up. Good Luck!!!

Chung Lung & Jeffery Farewell

Last Wednesday we have farewell for Chung Lung and Jeffery at Applebee. They should be on the air by now. hehe Well, Chung Lung is a very excellent Dota gamer while Jeffery is a enthusiatic ping pong player. Now, I will be missing them a lot without playing game and ping pong with them. Luckily, I have only around one month to go before going back Penang. Glad to know you as good friend here in Oregon. Hopefully we can still keep in touch in Penang. Good luck to you all.
