Tarbush @Bukit Bintang

Casey, Jamie, Siao Han and I were rounding the streets of KL in search for food. But most of them preferred fine dine instead of the usual coffee shops that is famous for their food (Jalan Alor & Jalan Tengkat Tungshin). I myself who isn't familiar with the roads in KL decides to find a place there to dine at all cost. I told them in advance that it was all gonna be random!

Stumble into the Lebanese Restaurant, Tarbush at Bukit Bintang. It is at the same row as Pavillion for your info. We have no idea what's good in this place, so I asked for their best recommendation. Remember, don't simply order! They told us that some food doesn't taste good for us Malaysians.

Indulge in this middle eastern food and you'll be amazed by its quality. You are really paying for what you're eating. There is no compromise in their food, drinks and services. Of course it comes with a big price tag haha. Well, once a while + experience is really not so bad after all. Oh ya, you'll need a great company that enjoys food as well. :)

After dinner, the girls decided to take a stroll around Bukit Bintang. Snap several spontaneous, scenery, portrait, and 'modeling' pictures. Everyone was practically watching the world cup while we were busy taking pictures and randomly walking around town. Returned home when everyone is tired and lazy after much food taken haha.

Wall Climbing @Shah Alam

Organized the wall climbing activity last Saturday. It's like a must for me to have this weekend outing every week before I leave to any parts of Malaysia. Two weeks ago, Honsam, Jamie, Aidil and I went to Sungai Tekala, Semenyih for some cool body chilling water session. Ok, so here are some information that you'll need to know about this Shah Alam Extreme Park.

Operating hours: 10am - 7pm everyday. 7pm onwards for experience climbers
Contact number: 03-55101787 (Office)
Package taken: Family package (5-10 ppl)
Price: RM12/per person + RM40 for 2 instructors + 2 hours session

Those who went are Kevin, Sidharth, Aidil, Honsam, Syekit, Siao Han and I (7 in total). The calculation would be ((RM12 x 7) + RM40) / 7 = RM17.71. 18 bucks for 2 hours climb! Worth it.

Experience would be the best part of the climb. There are 3 walls for beginners. I managed to climb two walls only, cause the last one was really difficult. =.=''. Stick close to the walls and climb up as soon as you can before you start wearing out if you stay any longer on those walls. Chalk your hands too, it's free! Just ask them for chalks. Never wall climb before? This is where you should head to! :)

Taylors?

Went to Taylors Lakeside campus ytd for a tour after lunch with Jason and Yao Huang. Overall it was pretty good. Library was the best part of it definitely. The place was cooling and nice. Lecture hall was great, since it is equipped with centralized airconds making it even more cooling especially on a hot day.

Kandang lembu beside the campus! Lolz, that's a little "Perlis" over there. But no match when it comes to people, leisure and fun with a huge price tag. Engineering courses are almost close to RM13,000 per semester. Well, if only I was that lucky haha...

Would anyone even follow this =.=''

Final semester results!

For 3 years, the Marcus have managed to endure much suffering and pain in his effort of studying really hard for his papers. The only reason he is striving really hard is because of one thing - To escape UniMAP for the next 3 years of his degree programme. Nothing has ever kept him going all out.

As he was watching the computer screen loading the webpage accessing to his results, he was a little surprised to obtained a 4.00 for his Industrial Training programme which takes up 6 credit hours. Expected a 3.67 (A-), his prayers were answered. Amen to that!

Since first class honours would either be 3.67/3.75, he managed to pass both borders with an average CGPA of 3.78. He felt a sense of relieve after all those challenges he has endured as an urban kid living in a kampung area. The Marcus is really grateful to all his friends and family members that has helped, supported, and encouraged him in all aspects of his studies & life. Thank you so much :)
