Sekinchan Road Trip (Part 2)

Lunch @ Restoran Bagan Sekinchan 鸿运海鲜饭店
As featured on a blog, the good review truly caught my attention so we decided to give it a try. We usually avoid tourist places (this restaurant isn't in the tourist map) as it may cost us much more than it should be. We reached there around 12 and it was rather crowded already. By the time we leave, the restaurant workers were advising the customer to come back an hour later! My advise to savour the mouth-watering seafood is to come as early as possible, first to avoid the crowd and before the restaurant runs out of any of the dishes. We didn't have the chance to try their mantis prawn which all of us will love to indulge in the wholesomeness of the salted egg mantis prawn.

Steamed Prawn (RM20)

A type of mollusc, resembling the shape of a bamboo, cooked as Kam Heong style. (竹滩/竹蛏)

(RM18)

Fried baby sotong with salted egg (RM15)

We also ordered a shark meat soup (RM14) and a claypot tofu (RM12). The portions were all very generous and the flavour were superb! Don't forget to try their rice as Sekinchan is famous for their 'paddy'. I will strongly recommend this restaurant and for sure I will be back again!

Total bill for 5 pax (including 3 drinks and 3 rice) : RM 85.50

Seashells everywhere, I wouldn't call it a 'beach'. There's not much of sandy area.

Sekinchan Road Trip (Part1)

A quick update on today's road trip to Sekinchan. I won't be explaining in depth as I'm on pretty hectic schedule now but pictures will speak a thousand words!

A very simple and handy guide to all tourists. (credits to Sekinchan Tourist Web)

First stop: Tian Fu Temple
Right opposite of Tian Fu Temple is a vast paddy field and there's ample parking space at Tian Fu Temple in the morning when we just arrived around 10am. It wasn't the right timing for us to visit as the paddy were harvested so most of the paddy fields lie bare.

Second Stop: PLS Marketing

It's not an end, it's a beginning

First all, I will be away for a couple months till SPM (an exam which marks the end of my highschool life!) is over so bear with me. Stay tune, I will be back very soon.

This is going to be a lengthy post. Continue to scroll down if you're interested :)

----------------

Oh well, it's July now, probably less than five months away I will be leaving highschool. Whenever I think about it, my heart literally sinks. I can't accept the fact that I will be leaving these whole bunch of mates who I treasure the most and they have made the best out of my entirety of five years in high school. Without every single one of them, I won't know how to pull through the problems that I have faces. Not to forget the besties I have. Through the countless time of argument, the thick and thin, our friendship is still as strong as before. We embarked on the journey of our high school, and throughout this journey, you guys are more like the angels that I am blessed with. I will know that if I needed help or even a listener, none of you fail to do so. There's this saying that the friendship you have made in highschool is the one that will stay with you through years. In fact, I will say that the I will cherish this forever. Five years of friendship and still counting!

Next up, trials is less than two months from now. I don't feel panicky, that's too extreme. I'm plainly struggling to cope with it because to complete the syallabus and do revision ain't as easy as I thought. I know I don't live for others, I live for myself but I'm never as selfish. I strive for the best for myself and for my family, teachers and friends. Even if they don't ask for it, I will do my best. Deep down their heart, they feel proud for me at the very moment I acheived success though words seldom come pouring out of their mouth. Asians are being asians here haha. Anyway, this doesn't matter the most. All the constant hard work that I have put in will pay off when the results are released. However, I'm nowhere near to the best yet, there's this gap for me to hurry my steps before reaching the finishing line so double, triple up my effort it is! 

I know it's not the end of the year yet but I just wanna sum up these two months in this post so I can keep the memories with me forever and ever. I have been through the roughest days in June and yeah, I'm still fine now (not perfectly fine). I absolutely love a quote which I have read on Twitter that says after the stormy days, there's still hope. Yes, hope and faith are the one that keeps my rolling. I will take it as a journey, there's uphill and downhill paths, there's winding roads, but afterall, I will come upon a mesmerizing scenery which will be a sight to behold. Similarly in life, without the hard times, the good days will not come. Fallen once, fallen twice. I'm glad to have plucked up the courage and face the challenges head on. I can choose to let it to hinder me from moving on, however I did not do so. It's not the end, it's just a fresh start. All that I have is what I'm blessed with, indeed a blessing. I won't ask for more because I cherish it a lot. I appreciate all the helping hands, the commitment, the trust and the memories whole-heartedly. Without them, I'm not not who I am now. They made me grow stronger mentally because enduring it is a priceless learning process.

Last but not least, as a Malaysian, the MH370 incident has not only grabbed the attention from the press and medias globally but was the most heart-wetching moment for us. And now, the MH17 plane crash again has left us in wretchedness. My condolences to them crews and the passengers' family members. 

To everyone out there, always appreciate your love ones. It doen't require much effort to shower them with your love.

Signing off,
