Oh, There He Is!!

Yes, I made an impromptu trip to Penang, reasons known to some of you here... no, no, not just to meet up Eugene (his wife will knock my head!) This time intended to meet up Eugene so that he will not say I "tarik harga"... (no offence, Eug) and secondly, to satisfy my curiosity cos these two persons saying he is a Cool Guy, as confirmed by STP and my son, Andy.

Wanted to give him a surprise so I sms-ed him last minute, ie. only when I reached the hotel. After checking in, I called him (he called me earlier but i missed that)... and after some small talk, his next question tickled me much.... (Eugene, take this lightly, ok?) He asked, "Which room number are u in?" aaahahhhhhhh... I must have laughed very loud, (yeah, very bad of me, hor..)... "Hey, no need to come to room, I meet u at the hotel lobby la!"

(Eugene, not making fun of u la.. just that your question caught me off guarded, I know u wanted to call me from the lobby when u reached the hotel, right? thus the room number... heheeeee)

True enough, after 20 minutes or so, he arrived, I went down to meet him. Recognised him straightaway... First look, I was thinking,"wah, eugene not only cool man, leng chai also and so so so young looking! U know what, my girl who came down with me, asked me how old he is, I told her, he is in his 40s... then she told me that he looked like 30s only... WAH!! ..Eugene... how right she is! You look younger than your pictures...

Ok, here are three we took.... no editing whatsoever... i prefer the blur-ness cos someone overshadowed me.. at least my teeth can be seen.. enough la..


first pic.. me not ready...


2nd pic, my wrinkles.. i should hv touched up
this leng chai must have done some"powdering" earlier

Italic
ah, the clearer version
... the cheh cheh and the sai loe...
