Last Tuesday was an especially blessed day for me- blessed in terms of food. Why? Because last Tuesday I had the opportunity to have a buffet lunch in City Bayview for FREE and dinner at Klebang's Seafarer Restaurant for FREE. To top it off was the dessert (not to be confused with the barren, often misspelled non-counterpart desert); a RM30 saman from good ol' MBMB for parking outside of Ayer Keroh's Jusco. Well.. I guess I deserve that dessert as my stubbornness do get the better of me on the good days. Thankfully can rayu to reduce it to RM15 and to top it off, if ya pay the fine within 24 hours, it's reduced to RM5.
Gotta love wiki.
No pics from the lunch at City Bayview with J.Leong, J.Lim, v.J and myself though but I DO have some pics from Seafarers.
the bee-you-tea-pool sunset
The ex-comm arrived at Seafarers at an early 6.45pm and were immediately drawn into the beautiful, serene surroundings. Nothing like the sound of waves slowly coming in as the tide rises. However, such peace often drive people to take their lives unexpectedly. Such was the case of the gurl below..
DON'T DO IT!! WE STILL LURV YOUUUU~
We shouted at the top of our lungs in hopes to snap her out of her trance-like walk few feet away from sinking into the ocean and swimming with the fishes. However we were unsuccessful. She took one fatal step off the.. steps and fell into the sea, swept by the current into the open
keep rollin rollin rollin
The event caused one of the gurls to snap into a psychosis and started to interact with what seemed to be an invisible object. Concern but more puzzled we went to tend to her. To our utter shock, the object she was interacting with wasn't invisible. No, it was a matter of perception of spacetime. Photos were taken as evidence of her mental condition. Isolation and treatment advised.
and you thought street mimes were good
something's really odd with this pic..
The traumatized witnesses of the event instinctively began the healing process of their minds. They retreated to certain quarters of the restaurant. Some were locked in the fetal position, withdrawing from reality. Others.. others found solace in others.
let the healing begin
Some found solace in gluttony. Feasting on SGF®s like the awesome Pongteh chicken, cold tofu, veggie stir fried in garlic, fried Siakap with fish sauce, kangkung belacan, deep fried squid fritters and last but definitely not least, black pepper crab.
Some Good Food®
Others were dangerously into very harmful non-alcohol substance abuse. Justifiable as any form of abuse is harmful. Yes kids, playing with strangers on the internet and reading materials like this is abusive and harmful.
if you think you're seeing things, call the help-line
One particular pair was dangerously close into murder. The male suspect (which may look like me, sound like me, but trust me, it isn't me) was trying to push his female companion off the wooden plank, apparently wanting to 'end the suffering'. With blood-shot red eyes and rabid-foamed frothing mouth, he refused to let go even as good (and helluva brave) samaritans tried using extreme force to save both these lost souls.
it ends tonight
But....
*SPALSH!!*
Both the confused pair fell off the plank and into the depths of the dark abyss. They didn't resurfaced. Their belongings left at the site were searched and what remained was nothing short of a tear-jerking remnant of the love they once had.
good bye
This however, was not the end of the sad story on this post. Another friend, dear to me and Ess-Oh, perished on a cold, wet Wednesday night. She was my friend, my companion who fought the good fight till the end of her time. When we found her, she was lying peacefully on a comfortable cushion of love and care.
We will miss you.

With Hope
This is not at all how
We thought it was supposed to be
We had so many plans for you
We had so many dreams
And now you've gone away
And left us with the memories of your smile
And nothing we can say
And nothing we can do
Can take away the pain
The pain of losing you, but ...
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no
And we can grieve with hope
'Cause we believe with hope
There's a place where we'll see your face again
We'll see your face again
And never have I known
Anything so hard to understand
And never have I questioned more
The wisdom of God's plan
But through the cloud of tears
I see the Father's smile and say well done
And I imagine you
Where you wanted most to be
Seeing all your dreams come true
'Cause now you're home
And now you're free, and ...
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no
And we can grieve with hope
'Cause we believe with hope
There's a place where we'll see your face again
We'll see your face again
We have this hope as an anchor
'Cause we believe that everything
God promised us is true, so ...
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no
And we can grieve with hope
'Cause we believe with hope
There's a place by God's grace
There's a place where we'll see your face again
We'll see your face again
We wait with hope
And we ache with hope
We hold on with hope
We let go with hope
Good nite peeps and God bless in your exams. Till after the finals!
p.s. Ess-Oh shed a tear as the one that perished was mine and it reflected me leaving this place before her
