Gong Xi Fa Chai

Greetings from Alor Star!

It has been emm.. how to say.. exciting? few days back home. My parents and siblings were all away to Vietnam and China. Yup i stayed back home.

Let me bring you to a mini-tour around Alor Star and what i have been doing for these few days.

REX Theater. Used to be the place where we go for movies when we were young. But it has turned into a snooker cum video game place right now.

DSC01172Herbal tea store. Its like a Chinese sifu where you tell him your health problems and he prescribe you the drink with Chinese medicine. Kenny took one that cost him RM 6. He seemed to have quite good business due to Chinese gluttony during Chinese New Year.

While waiting for the drink, there seemed to be a commotion nearby. We saw a samseng slapping a guy on crutches. We were staring for quite a while when the samseng suddenly saw us. we quickly cabut. That’s the picture i took before we left. keke.
