Welcome to Cat Museum, Kuching (27.6.2009)

Last day at Kuching, I went jalan-jalan around Kuching. This time went visit the Cat Museum. Wah~ ingat boleh tengok miao miao benar tapi seekor pun takde. No siamese cat but only cat statues, huh. Even you can see the Hello Kitty and Garfield, cat food Whiskas and Friskies in the museum. The entries is free but you have to pay if you wanna take photo or video. Of course I paid then non-stop "kacha-kacha" lor. What's fun inside is, every statues, pictures, stamps and everything have information and explanation on it. Some information and explanation are really funny and useful like why cat need whisker, why cat arched their back and etc. The view around the DBKU are beautiful too. Must visit place when you come to Kuching, the Cat Museum.

FYI, the Kuching Cat Museum is a cat museum in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. It was founded in 1993. It owned by the Kuching North City Hall (DBKU). There are 2000 exhibits, artifacts, statues about cats from all over the world. According to Malaysian and Chinese beliefs, the cat is a lucky animal. The museum covers an area of 1,035.9 square meters in a hill overviewing Kuching called Bukit Siol. In 1987, the first cat show took place in Kuala Lumpur. On August 1, the same exhibition took place in Kuching when the city was referred to as "Cat City".

The Junk Restaurant & Zhen How Tea House (21.6.2009)

After farewell night, I continue eating again around the Kuching. This time is with my cousin, Audrey who's on holiday that time. She brought me to a very unique restaurant called The Junk which located at Wayang Street. The restaurant was decorated with antique items like clocks, pictures, rattan stuffs and etc. You can see French, Italian and Western food in menus. The dishes name was "fantasic" and I really don't have idea of what it is. At last I ordered fish and chip while Audrey ordered pasta. The food was great but not suggested for student to come always because the price was quite expensive for a student.

On the same day same night, Chin brought me again eat at Kuching town. This time no western but chinese food. At first he wanna brought me to Taman Kereta but only two of us so cancel the plan. Actually Taman Kereta is a place where eating seafood only. Both of us still full so we went to Kuching Open Market to have Sio Bee (Hokkien) and soya drinks. Apek Chin ni, ordered 10 Sio Bee! He really thought I'm a pig.. =.="' But at last I ate more Sio Bee (6 Sio Bee) than him..wahaha. The soya only just a normal soya drinks lo. Not enought of that, my third round dinner, we went to Padungan area and was thinking wanna having a chinese herbs tea to "cool down" due to the hot weather. So we went to Zhen Hao Healthy Food & Min Tea House. I really damn full liao and decided don't want to take any food, only want drink tea. I saw Chin ordered fish porridge and he saw my face look like very interested so he order one for me too. Wawawawa~ Understand why I'm getting chubby, huh. Finished eating, we went back. Reached home I straight sleeping. Wawawawa~ 6 hours only and I ate at 3 different places. What to do, I love eating..muahahaha.

Farewell #1 (20.6.2009)

3 months training at IDS, is time for the farewell. Actually it was Ah Ming's (Network Leader) farewell but they also don't forget about me who will end the training soon at 26th June too. So this farewell included me..hihi. The farewell was held at buffet steambot shop, somewhere at Pending, Kuching. That day really fun because is was hard for all the IDS workers to get together in the same time. Anyway, the steambot ..... not sooo "ho chiak". The Seri Kembangan steambot is the best liao. Finished farewell at 11.00 PM, we went for the second round again. We went The Tarot Cafe at 3 miles for drinks. The drinks were nice and the name of drinks also very interesting. While enjoying our drinks, we played games too until 1.00 AM. After that, with Chin, Lily, Albert and Reuben, we went for snooker. At 3.00 AM, very tired and sleepy liao, went back bath then sleep.

Which of us divided to four group. That night I didn't performed well like I did at Alamanda, Putrajaya. We played for 3 hours. The games all end at 11.00 plus. Went back with smile because the game was really fun. Thanks IDS for the games.
