June 28, 2012
Penang here I come ! lazy to put on make-up recently , simple eyeliner will do.
I really fall in love with my characters, even the bad ones. I love getting together with them. They tell me what to do, they take me on a wild and wonderful trip. On the 16June2012 , I had a very fun happy joyful short trip with both of my beloved to Penang. Aim is to attend the Hennessy party , besides that we also had fun time enjoying visiting & food search. We stayed 1 night at Copthorne Orchid hotel , Penang. The hotel was simple and small but no choice since we last minute booked. Many nearby hotel also were fully book on that particular day , I wonder why? ? because is not school holiday or public holiday also. Maybe due to Hennessy event , haha . . . just guessing . . . .
