16 April, Saturday
Woke up smiling. The morning part was quite blurry due to Friday's night out with the guys. Talked to parents about the trip to Penang. Yup, I was suppose to leave for Penang on Saturday but after bargaining and pouting with the family, they said I can go for Mark's dinner as long as I head for Penang after that. Called Daniel and Nicki; Nicki had her birthday dinner that night too. Which made me free guilty for not attending it. Anyway, she agreed to tag along with me and Daniel on my Penang trip that night.

Back to Mark's dinner. We were suppose to meet up at 7.30pm, One Utama. I left home around 6.10 with Daniel. He was nice enough to use his car for the trip instead of mine; coz everytime I used mine for a trip...I get into an accident. Got a call from Mark on my way there. When I arrived, Mark and me were the only ones there. Walked for abit then head over to the restaurant. Felt weird sitting in a big table setting with him alone. The place was quite packed; with a long queue outside. We ordered soup for ourselves while waiting for the rest.

Mel and Lisa came [they looked good;I just envy Mel's height..hehe]. Then Nick, his date and Sharon came. We had a great meal topped with white wine. Mark's cousin was the last person to arrived. We were so noisy that I noticed the table next to us were giving evil looks. Its been awhile but I had a fab time. The part which I liked the most was when the girls and I tricked Mark into drinking olive oil laced with wine and when he gave me a peck on the cheek to say thanks for my gift. After 10, I got a call from Dad. It was Dad actually; but Daniel who was playing a trick on me. I said my goodbyes and left. Mark was nice enough to accompanied me. Daniel, his friends and Nicki waited for me in his car.

We took awhile to get to Penang due to my frequent toilet stops along the highway [Must be way too much drinking]. I called bro to check if there was any space at granny's. Alas, there wasn't so we headed to Batu Feringgi. Lucky for us that my uncle booked 2 rooms in advance just in case, one of his blur nieces/nephews [that would be me] forgot how small our Penang house is. We didn't sleep till 7am the next morning..why? Well, lets just say that I made a fool of myself in front of the gang and Daniel will never forget to wear his towel tightly the next time.

On Sunday, I left the hotel for the family thingy. I had to represent my family side. Damn it, hate being the youngest. I left after 2 hours coz I couldn't bear the boredom anymore. The gang was at the beach, I didn't bring my swimming suit so I used my tube top instead [yes, I looked stupid but I was desperate ok!]. We had nasi kandar for breakfast, lunch and supper. Dinner, I took them to this seafood place which was awesome. My sleeping patterns is seriously affected by this crazy weekend.

Today, we left Penang early in the morning to beat traffic on the bridge. Arrived around 1pm. Bro's car is in the workshop [he bang the highway divider..was speeding]. So, I have to be his driver this week. Things to do this week:
  1. Meet up with Mark for a movie
  2. See friend for the car that sis wanted [I'm getting commission :)]
  3. Get my assignments done
  4. Remember to call Em and Tim
