Share tea Heritage, Beach street, Penang

Beach Street buildings have been going through major face lifts. Many years ago, most of the buildings were mainly for offices, and right now, there are now more choices for  a cuppa drink or meal. I still couldn't understand the bubble tea craze in Penang. The idea of having a plastic sealed drink with a thick straw seems to be a 'cool' thing for the old and young. For WongKok Char Chan Teng members, there is a 10% discount for meet fresh and share tea. It seems that they are under the same 'umbrella'. Extra Pearls Taro drink. I realised that I'm not a fan of taro drinks. I still prefer Chatime's Grass Jelly Roasted  milk tea or Share tea's Green tea with Red beans. Very interesting Plum Potato fries. Both flavours at one go. Sweet and savoury.  And the other many series.. too many choices to pick

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2013

The first weekend of 2013 has come to past. Time indeed flies, and I just remembered I had a week of reflections of 2012 few weeks ago. It was a year of change for me in 2012. Many things changed; responsibilities grew, work life gets a little more stable (I'm glad with my work schedule since 2010 - a blessing in disguise for me), people around me changed, and etc etc.. The highlights in 2012 for me, is definitely my KK trip, that I managed to conquer Mt Kinabalu in May-12. It was lot of pain and hardwork, trying to maintain some "stamina" with p90x after work, but was glad that the hard work was worthwhile, despite the fact that I grew too much body muscles. Year end health report showed that I need to lose more fats, and gain ZERO muscle mass. Oh man, I'm a fat and muscular woman! And some other trips, which was memorable to me: Krabi Island Hopping. Wanted to go to the islands in Thailand very much, since I missed the chance in 2012 while visiting
