Happy Lunar New Year

Sorry, the title of this post has nothing to do with the post itself. Just wanted to squeeze in a greeting somehow ...

WenSee came over to Penang and so we made plans to meet. We went to Gurney Plaza to hang out. We watched a movie, "Outlander". It was rated "18" so it took a while to get the tickets ... WenLoong even had to show the person at the ticket booth his IC! We kinda get why it was rated "18", what with all the gory scenes and the fact that the first English word we heard in the movie is "fuck".

I thought it was a movie about some alien crashing into Earth and ends up helping the Vikings fight some wars. Well, it kinda was, until they threw in a freaky alien monster and the story took a 180-degrees turn.

After the movie, we were wandering around aimlessly when WenSee's aunt and uncle called to ask if she can donate some blood. She has a hospital-ridden relative who needs like, 6 bags of blood everyday to keep him from dying. Wow. She asked me to go with her so I think what the heck, I'll accompany her. Turns out I was expected to donate some of my blood too!

How fascinating to see the needles go in like that. It felt kinda itchy, nothing more than a mosquito bite. WenSee looked as if she was about to cry though ... Couldn't blame her, the doctor put the needle in and kept moving it around since he can't find the vein. Owch ...


Island Hospital: the room where me and WenSee donated our blood. Her aunt's and uncle's blood had some problems so it's only us ... And it was my first time donating blood.


We met Cat at gurnet Plaza, who is on holiday from NS for the CNY. Nice haircut!
