Don’t stop the pop
(Ahh, ahh-ahh ahh…)
Can’t stop the clock
(So baby let’s go)
I wanna celebrate
And I don’t want the party to stop
(Hey-ay!) (Ayy-o)
Tonight we can get a little stronger,
Tonight we can go a little longer
Can’t stop the clock
Tik tok, don’t stop the pop

I know a place where they
Dance dance dance dance
Till I like it
Rude boy
Dyamite
A bad romance

I know a place where they
go (go) go (go) go
Giddy up and
Can make your bed rock
Don’t stop the pop

It happens all the time
The melody, in my head
Make me wanna say
The time pass but we
Let the beat rock
Let the DJ go to play my favorite song

Don’t stop the pop
(Don’t stop baby)
Don’t stop the pop
So baby let’s go
I wanna celebrate
And I don’t want the party to stop
(Hey-aye!) (Ayy-o)

Tonight we can get a little stronger
(Ayy!)
Tonight we can go a little longer
(Ayy!)
Can’t stop the clock
Tik tok, don’t stop the pop

We can dance
(Woah oh-woah)
Like it goes on and on and on
Like shooting stars (like shooting stars)
Dance, until we die
Like it goes
On and on and on
On and on and on and on and
Dance
Like it’s the last night of your life life
Dance
Like we’ll be young forever
Dance dance dance that’s tomorrow just right now now now
‘Cause we’re never getting old

It happens all the time
I’m always hearing your
Melody, in my head
You make me wanna say
The time pass and we
Let the beat drop
Cuz we gon’ rock rock rock rock rock
When the music drops
Don’t stop the pop

Don’t stop the pop
Don’t stop baby
Don’t stop the pop
So baby let go
(One love one love!)
I wanna celebrate
And I don’t want the party to stop
(Hey-aye!) (Ayy-o)

Tonight we can get a little stronger
(Ayy!)
Tonight we can go a little longer
(Ayy!)
Can’t stop the clock
Tik tok, don’t stop the pop

Let’s go all the way tonight
I want it all, it all, it all
I just want it all, I just want
everything as long as it’s free
(ohh-ohh, ohh-ohhh)
I want it all

Ain’t got no money in my pocket but
I wanna be a billionaire
Go DJ!
Got my iPod
On the stereo
If I could write you a song
The world better prepare
Oh my god
Listen to my mix
On the radio

Hands up
(Hands up!)
Suddenly we all got our hands up
Put your hands up
Now put your hands up!
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes, saying
Ohh myyyyyyy god.

Don’t stop the pop
Don’t stop baby
I don’t wanna stop
Spreading my wings
It’s like I’m in flight
Let’s fly away
Life is just a party
And i don’t want the party to stop
(hey-aye!) (ayy-o)

Tonight we can go a little stronger
(Ayy!)
tonight we can go a little longer
(Ayy!)
Can’t stop the clock
Tik tok, tik tok don’t stop the pop

Let’s go
Faster, faster
Don’t stop
Go faster
(ayy o)
Just going out to
Roll all night
Baby I don’t want the party to stop
Hey-aye!
Everybody
From New York, to
California
(Ayy!)
Can’t stop the clock

No regrets
There’s not a thing that I would change
Can’t stop the clock
We’re unforgettable
ayy!
We’re undeniable
So hot
We’re on top
Tik tok
Don’t stop the pop

(Woah oh-woahh)
don’t stop baby
(Woah oh-woahh)
Wont stop baby
‘Cause you’re amazing, just the way you are.

12 Days of Christmas With NO BIRD SEED ?!

Heres a joke to cheer you up this Christmas :
(i kinda copied it form a insanity streak comic from THE STAR )
(credit goes to the guy who thought of this joke)

So we all know how the
'12 Days of Christmas' song goes ...

"on the first day of christmas my true love gave to me ...
___________________"

lets skip to verse 12 shall we ?

Verse 12
On the twelfth day of Christmas,
My true love gave to me:
Twelve Drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords-a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids-a-milking,
Seven swans-a-swimming,
Six geese-a-laying,
FIVE GOLDEN RINGS!
Four calling birds,
Three french hens,
Two turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree.

OK so lets recall, with all those presents/gifts
given by my so call "true love",
She gave me 23 DIFFERENT BIRDS
in total and didnt give me any bird seed so now I have to
pay for all the bird seed myself ....
...
...

damn it ==
Im soo going to be broke after christmas
ha-ha
no thx to true love haha =]

Straits Quay - Christmas Candyland

Straits Quay !

The second newest mall on Penang Island after the 1st Avenue mall,
located close to Tanjung Tokong or Island Plaza.

They say its prettier at night...
I went there at night and I didnt regret one bit ! haha!

Here, we have Straits Quay all lighted up and ready for Christmas
with its Christmas theme -CANDYLAND !!
weeee~ CANDY !

Pretty huh ? sure is~

The Straits Quay Christmas Tree

you'll see big ol choco bars and candy sticks, lined up by the side
of the open air area of SQ with the Xmas tree in the middle.
Great for taking pics with !

Ice Cream seller from a Swensens ice-cream stall !
I LOVE ICE-CREAM !
( too bad the Swensens Restaurant isnt open at SQ yet... )

And now we go inside the Straits Quay Mall.
At first i thought that SQ here is an open-air bazaar...
boy was i wrong...

The SQ Mall, fully air conditioned on the inside.
There aren't many stores in SQ yet but there are a few restaurants
which you have never seen in Penang opened already.
(I forgot what the names of these unique restaurants were,
so you'll have to be there to see for yourself haha)

Soon-to-be-open stores and restaurants are
Switch and Swensens just to name a few.

On the other hand...the Restaurants which are already open are
Subway, Secret Recipe, Cheeky Duck ( serving duck of course), Dome
and many many more !

Here are the pics of SQ... on the inside !
Christmas Carolers !

The Straits Quay Atrium

One of the Straits Quay Corridors

I was by the seaside...

sorry for the blury pic, but this is what Straits Quay looks like at night.

SQ Mini Stage, where a Christmas Sketch is gonna be performed.

Guess thats all the pictures I have,
for those who have not been to SQ yet,
I highly recommend this place to you avid picture takers out there,
becuase the view of SQ at night is truly breath-taking,
SQ is also a great place for you to have a nice stroll and feel the cool
sea breeze at night.

So this is good bye for now !
I will be back for a new blog entry next weekend ! Stay tuned !
Cya ! ^^

TRON LEGACY

TRON LEGACY
another awesome movie that will be hitting the cinemas
in Malaysia on the 16th of December 2010,
which is of course next THURSDAY !!

What is this TRON ? Why is it a LEGACY ?
or what is it even about?

To answer ur Q's, direct from my good friend Wikipedia,
heres what TRON LEGACY is all about :

Tron: Legacy :

An upcoming 2010 American science fiction film produced by Walt Disney Pictures to be released in December. It is a sequel to the 1982 film Tron.

Heres the plot :

Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund) is haunted by the
mysterious disappearance of his father Kevin (Jeff Bridges), the former CEO of ENCOM, who vanished 20 years ago.
One night, Alan Bradley (Bruce Boxleitner), the current CEO of ENCOM, sends Sam to investigate a strange signal originating from the now abandoned Flynn's Arcade.
While searching for clues, Sam is suddenly transported to the digital world of The Grid.
Aided by the digital warrior Quorra (Olivia Wilde), Sam is reunited with his father and together set out on a journey to return home.
Using vehicles, weapons, and landscapes that have become far more advanced than before, father and son must evade CLU 2, an updated version of Flynn's original hacking program, which will stop at nothing to prevent their escape.

( Dont ask me what those fancy words mean or are cos i seriously dont know either)

Imma looking forward to this 3D movie, the trailer looked THAT awesome already,
imagine what the real film would be like !

The tickets are gonna be up for sale next week so I better
get ready to grab me some tickets !
bye for now !

New Christmas Blog Header

1st Avenue

Havent been to 1st Avenue yet ?
Well, to ya'll have-not-been-there-yets
heres a look at whats what and wheres what in 1st Avenue,
the newest mall on Penang Island.

1st Avenue Mall spreads over seven levels, from Lower Ground to Fourth Floor, and on the Eighth Floor. The fifth to seventh floors are taken up by the car parks. The eighth floor, billed Cloud Eight, has an open viewpoint of the city of George Town.

So where does the name 1st Avenue come from ?
Well,The name "1st Avenue" is actually derived from Magazine Road, which is known as the first avenue or street in the Seven Streets Precinct of George Town.

Lets start of with the car park... wanna look at the inside of 1st Avenue,
you can either skip this entire boring thing and just scroll down to the bottom =]

and as I was saying~ the carpark !
the floors are painted ! Just like those squeaky clean floors you see in IKEA,
if you've been to IKEA in KL, you'll definitely know what i mean
cos these floors are SHINY !! I love shiny !

The transparent elevator door and elevators they have, lifts are located on the outside, so you can see the busy roads down below. Transparent stuff makes things soo high-techy
doncha think ? haha

The atrium, where there is a promotion going on for
NERF products - plastic toy replicas of guns, which actually work
and shoots foam darts.
They are really awesome if you see them up close,
they are like real working guns,
its just that they fire deadly foam bullets, having foam dart/ammo
and are made outta your no-help-to-the-environment PLASTIC =.=

The interior design of the mall
the design of the mall makes the entire mall
look edgy, kinda in-style and very awesome lookin

NERF Stuff

Theres Sushi King, RotiBoy (where they sell buns and stuff and has a long queue line all the time),
Parkson,Kenny Rogers
REDBOX !! KARAOKE !! and a few clothing stores there.
A Dome cafe will also be there after they finish renovating and stuff but except for that, the mall still needs more shops and stalls to make it more interesting.Maybe a bookstore, more cafe's, oh and dont forget a cinema !

OH and I almost forgot,
they have a sushi king at 1st Avenue and they were having a promotion :
BUY 1 FREE 1 SUSHI !!

See that big Screen there, it wasnt turned on the day i got there =[

There will be a skybridge linking up 1st Avenue and
Prangin Mall, its just that its not finished yet, haha still a work in progress.

With 1st Avenue linking up with Prangin Mall and Prangin Mall
linking up with Komtar, i guess that makes it a MEGA MALL with these 3 malls connected ? XP

I'll say that 1st Avenue still needs lotta work so im lookin forward to more of its changes
and upgrades in the future.

Till then, cya !
Darren signing off !
