My Day Trip And The Karate Kid

It is 1.46am now.. I just got back from Penang, first time in history, made a day trip and coming back wee hours in the morning. A very tiring trip but someone is more tired than I am cos he was the one driving throughout the journey.

What did we do in Penang? Purpose of the journey as usual, was to the hospital.. after that, Aaron and I went to pick Andy up for lunchie, then dropped him back to college. To while away the hours, we went to watch a movie at Queensbay, "The Karate Kid" starring Jackie Chan and Jayden Smith. (Will Smith's son)... I was skeptical at first about the movie, thought another kid movie, yes, no doubt it is about the kid but the scenery in China was really amazing, not to mention the kungfu and the cuteness of Jayden. A very nice movie, I can say.. enlightening and refreshing!

After the movie, picked Andy up again and we went for dinner at Sg. Pinang. No pictures! Too darn hungry by then... it was almost 9pm when we dropped Andy back again to his hostel and by the time everything was finished and done in hospital, it was already 10.45pm... whew... and the journey back home was a sleeping time for me in the car. Thanks Aaron for being the navigator and driver, your mum here was snoring away in the car, right? :)

  4. How wonderful your son is the driver and navigator for you. I used to worry when my three children got their licenses but they have all turned out to be great drivers and I do like to be the passenger now, after all the years of shuttling them here, there and everywhere!

  13. Yes, Karate Kid is a good movie not only for kids but for grown-ups as well. I did not know that Jayden Smith is the son of Will Smith. As usual, your day will not be complete without eating at your favorite restaurant. You must be truly loaded to afford to always eat outside, lol. Thanks for the post. God bless you all always..

  20. Hello!
    Well, I personally like the movie!
    Some people prefer to drive during wee hours as there'll less cars on the highways. But be sure to have enough sleep before that and always keep the eyes wide open!

    Enjoy your day!
