Genting Trip

Brrr....*shivers*

That was what we got when we arrived in Genting. Or at least, i did. :D

For those who are wishing for some pictures, sorry but i did not have a chance to bring along the bulky equipment given that my dear sibling needed it for a much higher priority than i. Whilst i had my hand phone, i was worried of draining the battery - which can be rather uncooperative at times, so i did not dare take any pictures. :D I apologize for being paranoid and for not providing you the joy of looking through pictures of me with my panda eyes. I suppose i can be evil.

And boring.

ANYWAY, i shall provide the details and you all can drop by at Kit Yee's blog and Wei Ning's for the pictures. :D

Let's start: 3rd July (1st Day)
I miraculously managed to get out of bed at around 6:30 in the morning in good spirits to fight for the bathroom. Since i was told to meet with the rest by 7:30, i packed in all the last minute necessities like toothbrush and was ready to leave the house by 6:50. :D

Despite the horrendous traffic jam, we (my mom and i) managed to maneuver around the cars and got into a shortcut and ta-dahh! Reached my destination on the dot. :D

We were initially told that our bus would be the earliest at 8 a.m.. However, we couldn't get the tickets and settled for the 8:30 a.m. bus which was just as well since there were some ahem..late comers. HAHA. :P

Let's just say that the bus drivers are probably one of those ex-Pizza Hut delivery boys/girls racing to their destination in record time. I prayed all the way.

To cut it short, it was SOOO misty. So much so that it felt like we were in some sort of sci-fi movie or perhaps, horror scenes - where some random Jack the Ripper would appear from the mist and you realise suddenly that he appeared in such short notice and in such close proximity that you have no chance to run and in the end, get killed/ you thought you saw your dead friend/enemy and then before you can take a second look, they disappear into the mist. Once you run towards the direction they were in, you find yourself either lost or in a different dimension.

And almost all the rides were temporarily closed.

AND we already bought the tickets for ALL parks.

Let me tell you that only the kiddish rides were open. So pretty much MOST of the adults crowded around the kiddy rides and enjoyed the freezy gush of wind and drizzle on the face.

I nearly turned to ice.

IT was COLD! It was like experiencing winter season in Hong Kong! I did not quite enjoy the cold initially since i did not have any extra cardigan to warm me. But upon arriving at KL, i immediately missed it so much! It was fun to see everyone's face bright and their hair wet from the cold - imagine a commercial showing a "fresh" look and you'll get pretty much what i mean. lol.

The indoor themepark was pathetic. Aside from the bumper ride, which, i must say was fun, :D the indoor roller coaster was not working! Sheesh...In the end, all we did was walk in and out from the outdoor park hoping that the mist would be lifted and we could at least sit on some rides and hanging out around the indoor window shopping and eating. LOL.

Speaking of which, the food there is ...atrociously expensive!!! WHo in their right mind would pay for a whole chicken for RM80!?? IT'S INSANE! We had lunch at this Hou Mei restaurant and i ordered their speciality noodle thinking: "Oh well...speciality mar..should be pretty good." Guess what it turned out to be?

MAggi mee. -.-"

And it cost me 11.20. *faints*

Dinner was not too bad. I even met with a fellow Monash student! :D Everyone gathered at one of the rooms after dinner and we played "Mafia" from around 10p.m. to close to 1a.m.! IT was GOOD FUN!! I really really liked that game!!! :D The rest went on to play other games until about 4 in the morning. :D

4th July (2nd Day)

We had brunch in the end at KFC. Whilst TL and Nico had theirs for free and the girls (aside from Kit Yee and me) had porridge elsewhere. Then we left for the skyway and arrived back in KL (safely) in exactly 45 minutes. Again, the bus driver must be an ex-delivery boy or he had a bad case of diarrhoea and was in need of the loo because he drove like a mad man.

Anyhow, the rest with Wei Ning in the lead decided to stay back at 1 U for a karaoke session? I do not know how they have the energy and enthusiasm to sing but i simply could not. I was feeling nauseous and was in much need to rest my head on a soft pillow. Which was close to what i did once i arrived home. Straight to the couch and Ahhh....

This is what i call Home Sweet Home.

p/s: it was a good trip and despite not being able to sit on the rides, it was a very interesting experience! And not to mention, lots of interesting new gossips! :D I hope everyone else enjoyed their time as much as i did! See you all soon! :D
