What-to-do on the First Day of Chinese New Year?

A little too old to go house-to-house for angpow collection, perhaps, the best thing to do on the first day of new year is to go HIKING. Instead of going to normal eateries to celebrate Soo Ling's birthday, we opted for HIKING since we worried so much about the calories that we consumed for CNY.

It was indeed a quieter evening compared to other days, since most regular hikers would be busy with their family reunions/gatherings. Since I have a very simple family who only have 'simple' small reunions, I was pretty free throughout my new year.

I was surprised to see some uncles having steamboat gathering right at Hill No.3.

Good day to start with a sweat !
Ain't Penang magnificent?

Kawaii poses for the older ones :P
Down at Penang Youth Park before we left the place

What's the Difference between 'Net' and "Nett"

Since it's part of my group's job to publish daily billings report to the management, our Director (from US) pinpointed that we should fix the spelling of 'nett billings' to 'net billings'. My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

An afternoon at Dannok

Living at the northern side of Malaysia makes it really convenient and easy to go 'overseas'. For us, going to our neighboring country, be it Thailand or Singapore by land or by flight is really easy. I'm always a fan of Thai food, and with the remaining Thai bahts that I had since my last Bangkok trip (which I didn't finish even crossing the border a couple or times), I decided to go Dannok for FOOD again. So, it's a day trip or rather, half day tour to Dannok For the past few weeks, I was searching for insta / blog /facebook posts if there is any other new hangouts in Dannok, but sadly, I couldn't find many bloggers who write about it. The funny part is, I already blogged about it two years ago. The immigration complex in Malaysia is new. I nearly couldn't recognize it, while passing to get our passport checked. As I didn't want to drive over, we parked our car at the Zon Duty Free. As I entered, I took the wrong ticket (which parking rate is RM3
