A Wonderful Journey to Malacca~

And again, I'm sorry for the late blog update although I had a week of semester break and now its officially over.. It seems like I've done nothing besides lazying and relaxing around throughout the week! TIME! Y U NO PASS SLOWER! And yeah, on the 1st and 2nd of June, my friends and I went to Malacca for a 2 day 1 night trip..

Let's start the story telling shall we? Ok~ On the 1st of June, I got up around 8am as Derrick told me he will be coming to pick me up at around 8.45am.. got myself ready and I realized the time is already 8.30am! I quickly rushed downstairs and put on my shoes and started the wait~ Wait, wait and wait, and finally he came at around 9.15am.. Well, I won't blame you for being late cuz I agree that my house is kinda hard to find~

After fetching me, we got on our way to fetch York Keen at Shaun's house, then to Kuchai Lama to fetch Pui Fei at a restaurant called 'Telephone Restaurant'~ I wonder why would they use that particular name? maybe they provide telephone services for the outsiders or those who don't own a cell phone? who knows? :P Meanwhile, Wei Yee fetched Jie Lian and Samantha from their house respectively and then got to Murni which is a mamak stall or a small restaurant where we planned to meet up there.. and so we arrived at around 10am.. Started ordering for breakfast, munch munch munch and started our journey to Malacca~

Finally, after 2 hours of driving, we reached Malacca.. and somehow, it took us quite some time to find our hotel as its quite new and no special landmarks nearby..


 This is the place where we rest our heads! :D

And so, we checked in at around 12.30pm, got into our rooms, put down our luggage and then we started our hunt for FOOD! everyone's stomach are yelling for food at that time! So, we went to Jonker Street to start the hunt as Derrick suggested a famous restaurant named 'Jonker 88' which is famous for their curry noodles and also Ice Kacang Cendol! but before that, parking is the problem, as its our first time to drive ourselves there, we gotta find parking and their parking coupon style is totally different as compared to the style in KL.. We have to buy the parking coupons from some shops and the rates are at 40cents per 30minutes and also 60cents per 1 hour. We were like, we gotta buy more tickets and ended up putting the parking tickets in this way. LOL

Each ticket represents 30 minutes of parking

Jonker Street!

 The 'Jonker 88' restaurant. 'People Mountain People Sea' @_@

Our first meal in Malacca. ^~^ yummm~~ (Curry Noodle and Sago Cendol)

After eating, we went for a walk around Jonker Street, and we bought some souvenirs and also some drinks and a little snacks along the way.. Then, Hau Hau called us up and said to come and meet us and bring us to a place to have a drink.. When we're about to reach the place and saw the banner, we were like.. OMG! eat again?! We were so FULL!! but at the end, all of us finished the drink maybe cuz its special and it can't be found in KL? Whats so special about that drink you asked? Its known as the Coconut Milkshake Special with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top~ not bad at all, the price is also reasonable, it just cost us RM 2 which we can hardly find in KL with that price.. 

Coconut Milkshake Special with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top! 

After quite a long day, we decided to head back to the hotel and get ourselves washed up and get some rest and prepare for the night.. We even skipped dinner that day as we're too FULL! So again, we went to Jonker Street as the street is like totally different as compared to afternoon and night.. The later the time, the more the people coming in to the street... and again, I take the chance to get more souvenirs! Keychains are the best choice among other stuff~ LOL 

Then, they wanted to go for Satay Celup as supper and I was too full, so I just stare at them when they're eating and I was wondering, why are they hungrier than me but I ate much lesser than them during the walk just now? haha~ maybe its my problem~ o_O

 Supper of the day: Satay Celup! :)

 From left: Jie Lian, Meng Yeow, Derrick

As I do not want to disturb their appetite, I decided to stop taking pictures of them eating, am I a nice friend or what? haha XD

After the meal, its already around 11.30pm, we got back to the hotel and to get some rest~ took a cold water bath, prepared ourselves for bed... but at the end, we turned the TV on and started watching and chatting the night away~ and finally when we looked at the time its already 1.30am! Time do fly when you're enjoying yourselves! So, lights out and eyes closed till the next morning~

The next day, I'M THE EARLIEST TO GET UP! guess what time? 7.30am! I wonder why I can't continue sleeping? poor me~ so I got up, got a cold bath again, man~ the water is really cold in the morning~ brrrrr~~~ its just 8am when I'm done preparing myself and the others were still sleeping themselves away.. And so, I decided to wake Meng Yeow up as I was too bored! the look of his face when I woke him up and he opened his eyes and then continue his sleep again was EPIC! haha xD

So I waited there, playing with my iPhone, as time passes, they woke up accordingly and then the boring-ness had gone~ yay! Then, Derrick messaged to ask to go for breakfast but only 2 out of 4 of us get to go as the coupon only allow 2 people per room to enter the cafe, so Meng Yeow, Wei Yee and I got to the another cafe and to have our breakfast while York Keen just sneak in to the cafe without the coupon! LOL

My breakfast! (Mini Omelet Set with a cup of tea) :P

After breakfast, we got back to our rooms and start packing up our stuff and everyone got into 1 room and started chatting~ until its around 12pm, we got down to lobby and checked ourselves out~ after checking out, we went to Jonker Street, again to have the famous Chicken Rice Ball for lunch! The restaurant is filled with people again as it was once visited by a Malaysian celebrity, Jason Yeoh and he was actually filming a food program, and that's how this restaurant got famous! 

 Restaurant Hoe Kee! 

Chicken Rice Ball for lunch! :P

After eating, we walked back to the parking area and got up the car, and went to the Dataran Pahlawan to buy the famous 'thousand layer cake' at Nadeje.. again, it's full off people.. I wonder why are there so many famous restaurants and shops in Malacca as compared to KL?
I didn't get the chance to take the picture of the cake as we're in a rush in getting on our way back to KL as the time is already 4pm when we're done buying the cake.. some of us ate the cake at the McDonald nearby and some of us brought them home and share it with our family members~ :)

At around 6.30pm, we entered KL area and at around 7pm, I reached home safely~ Thank you Derrick for fetching me! I really enjoyed myself in this trip although it's just a 2 days 1 night trip, but for me, it is the time spent with my friends that counts! Thank you all for being my friends! I will always remember the moment we had fun together~ when will be the next plan? I'm waiting for that day to come! :D

Lastly, the group pictures! 

 Thank you Meng Yeow for being the photographer for this pic!

Finally, 8 of us are in the pic together! ^o^

UC1F1203 - Degree Started~

Sorry for the late blog update! As degree had started, it feels like I have marched a big step forwards in my education life.. Its no more Foundation for me anymore as I'm now officially a Degree-Level student! Well, life just got busy when I entered Degree Level, 4 days of classes in a week which is 2 days more as compared to the Foundation Semester 3's timetable.. 

The only bad thing is that we have at least a 3 hours break in between of our classes everyday except for Wednesdays! We're forced to think how are we going to spend this 4 hours time besides spending it in college.. How I wish my college was as cool as Taylor's College Lakeside Campus! They have nearly everything inside! They even have 'Chatime' in their campus! ENVY!!

As we have 4 days of classes in a week now, our spending had also increased! The main one is the parking fees as we only have to pay around RM20 per month in Foundation and for now, we have to pay RM60 but my monthly allowance still remain the same.. Sad isn't it.. :(

Besides, even the spending on food increased as well, the college food somehow don't match our taste and we prefer to eat outside and so, there's the reason for the increase of our spending in the month of April.. No wonder everyone's complaining that they don't have enough money to use now.. cuz its the end of the month! xD
 

Now, lets all hope time will pass faster in the month of April and let May come visit us earlier so that we'll get our allowance~ :D no more complaining for being lack of money to use then! An advanced birthday celebration will be held in the beginning of May as well! So, keep saving up the money from now k! :)

My 19th Birthday Celebration!

Its finally my birthday! Well, this year's celebration was different as compared to my past celebrations as I get to celebrate with my college friends this year! We decided to celebrate at Tao Authentic Asian Cuisine as we had never been there before and Jie Lian's sister said that the food and the environment of the restaurant is not bad and so we gave it a try..

But before the celebration, we still have to go on with our last day of orientation which starts at 2.30pm to 4.30pm! It somehow interrupted the plan as by the time we start going, most of the places had started to jam... After the orientation, we rushed to Tze Haw's place to get ourselves changed for the dinner and we started our journey.. It actually took us 1 hour or so to get there!

When we arrived, its around 6.15pm and we start to gather ourselves but it seems some went to Wong Kok to yum cha while waiting our arrival whereas some of us had barged to the restaurant once they arrived there.. ARE YOU GUYS THAT HUNGRY OR YOU'RE JUST EXCITED? LOL xD

And so, we entered around 6.45pm to enjoy our early bird 10% discount for our dine in charges.. Its not worth it for me to dine at a buffet restaurant now as compared to the old me as I got full when I just had a little food there.. I used to like Japanese food very much and I still do now, but why did I felt full when I only had a few pieces of sushi? But frankly speaking, their choice of food in the restaurant is limited indeed as compared to Tenji 2 which is also another buffet restaurant in Puchong I went not long ago..

We ate until its around 9pm, and the bill came and guess what, it cost us RM980! Well, we have 14 people during the celebration... The 10% service charge had already cost us RM84! I have to agree with the good services provided to us through the whole dining session.. Its worth paying for it~


The picture of the receipt!

When we got out, we took a group picture before planning on where to go next~



After taking this picture, we spent like 30 minutes to discuss and decide on where to go next! Funny moments~ and at last we decided to go yum cha at 17 saloon which a a cafe bar and not literally a saloon! They ordered few glasses or beer whereas some of us and I did not.. We sat there for like 2 hours and played cards while enjoying the songs from the bar, OverTime next door~ Seeing my friends enjoying their time hanging out during my birthday, I felt blessed and happy to have them as friends..

When the time strikes at 11.30pm, we decided to leave as much time will be consumed as we're about to travel for 15km! I sent Angeline home as the LRT had stopped their services after 11pm... By the time I reached her house, its 12.30am~ wow! Then I went back to vista and dropped Tze Haw and Pui Fei.. and I continue my journey home and guess what, I reached home at 12.45am! Just as assumed, my mother and my grandmother decided to not sleep until I reached home! I felt guilty~ :'(

Well, this celebration is a great experience for me to celebrate to the max with my college friends where I will hardly see some of them in the future as they're going for different courses and different intakes.. To each and everyone of you who came for the celebration, I would like to thank you for making my birthday an awesome one in the year 2012!

Tomorrow's the start of my Degree Level 1 studies, I better go prepare!! ^_^

The End and the Beginning...

Its officially the end of the Foundation Studies for my fellow coursemates and I.. We had started our Orientation for our degree studies yesterday..

We actually left early for the orientation yesterday and went for lunch at McDonalds! After eating, we decided to go for a movie in Mid Valley.. LOL and Meng Yeow decided to park at the Premier Parking Zone and the payments are RM5 for the first 2 hours and RM2 for the subsequent hours!

We watched the movie 'John Carter' which is quite old and there's not many people watching it... The movie is not bad! Enjoyed watching it somehow~ xD

After watching it, its already 4.30pm and we decided to leave...

Well, thats all for now..

I wish I would be grouped together with my coursemates though.. As they said the names would be arranged according to the alphabetical order and my names starts with a J and I'm nearly at the back of the list... how sad~ :( well, if i'm grouped into a different group, i will definitely request for a change no matter what! :D

First Birthday Celebration in the month of March 2012 !! :D

Its March 16 yesterday and its our dai kar jie, Alicia's birthday!! We went for the celebration at The Geographer Adventure at the IOI Boulevard...



Before the celebration, my friend, Young JenSen suggested to meet up at IOI Mall to walk around and have our dinner before going for the celebration, and guess what? both of us were at IOI at 5pm! It seems like we have to spend our 4 hours in IOI as the celebration will start at 9pm.. We don't wanna come late as the traffic in the Puchong area will be crazy after 5pm!!

Finally at 8.30pm, Sandra and her friend, Catherine arrived.. and so, we went in the lounge and told the waiter we have 7 peoples in total and we were given a table.. The environment there is not bad too except for one of the table near us have smokers and their 2nd hand smoke is always blown to our direction... HATE IT ! but what to do, but later on, those people on the table left.. hooray! xD

So, we just carried on with the celebration by ordering two towers of Tiger Beer which I didn't manage to get a picture of it... Then, we started a card game named, "Heart Attack".. that game was named for a reason as it really gives the player a minor heart attack! The game is played with every player holds a number of cards on their hand and the players will put a card in the middle of the table in a clockwise rotation, with every card to be put on to the table, the player have to shout out the numbers accordingly in 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,J,Q,K.. If the number shown on the card is the same as the number said by the play who puts the card, everyone must try their very best to not be the last one to slam their palms on the cards, the last one to slam their palms will have to take all the cards on the table.. At the end, the one with the most number of cards on hand is the loser!!! And the punishment is to finish drinking a cup of beer in one shot!

Every turn, the girls, Sandra, Catherine and Alicia screamed while they slammed their palms!! haha~ I ended up losing 2 times~ T^T but our birthday girl, Alicia lost quite a number of times in the game! haha~~ and some of us got injured on our fingers while playing the game though, JenSen's middle finger got poked and bleed by Sandra's ultimately long nails, I got poked as well but thank god it didn't bleed, but unfortunately, Alicia had the most serious injury where her newly done manicure got cracked while playing.. oh god! Hope it'll recover soon~

Oh ya, there's a live band yesterday night too! One of the singers was the same singer singing at The Library that night! Love her singing!! :D AWESOME!! But this time's band is much better as compared to the one in The Library as they have different languages of songs here including Mandarin, English and Malay...


The live band singing 那些年 ! NICE !!! :D

And so, we continued until around 11.30pm, my family members called me and ask me to go home~ before leaving, I requested for some photo taking but most of it were not really nice and only this were somehow 'nice' but its not everyone there! :(


From Left: Sandra, Catherine, Alicia (birthday girl), and me (don't look like myself in the pic though) LOL xP

Well, thats all for now, I gotta continue with my studies for the exam on Monday! Btw, its an awesome night!! I enjoyed myself very much! and JenSen, thanks again for the present! :D

UCFF1103 [G1]



These are the peoples which I met in my brand new college life from March 2011.. In 2 more weeks or so, we're going to graduate from our Foundation Studies and move on to Degree Level 1.. Some of us are separating as they wanted to continue their studies in business and they will be moved to the new college campus at The Mines.

Next week is our buffer week and the week after will be our final examination and its the last week of our current semester as well as for our Foundation Studies.

Thinking that I might miss everyone from the group, and suddenly Angeline suggested me to have a group photo taking session with our lecturer for 2 semesters, Miss Pearl~ during the semesters before, many happy and sad things happened and those are the great memories remembered by everyone of us and shall never be forgotten!

Also, thank you Alex Koh for bringing you DSLR camera so that we can have this clear photo as remembrance and also Meng Yeow for bringing the tripod although its still in my car till this very moment! haha~ xD

UCFF1103[G1]!! I'll miss you! :')

Badminton II

After the 1st game of playing badminton with my college-mates, it seems like they're addicted to play again.. So, due to several requests from some of them, I decided to create a badminton playing event again on Thursday with the same venue which is the Datuk Lee Chong Wei Sports Arena, all of us agreed with that as the environment there was awesome!

The plan of the day was to go for breakfast at Steven's Corner OUG, then back to college to submit our assignments and then take off to the sports arena. Little did I know, after I fetched my friends, Angeline and Tze Haw and Angeline was checking through my group's assignment, then I was informed by her that my group left out the table of contents! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE ?! The table of content is in between the cover page and the list of table and figure and it is NOT POSSIBLE to be left out! The only thing I can say is that, my group members are careless..

So, I'm forced to rush home and to print out the table of content with 2 passengers in my car.. Sorry for making you guys wait! :( After printing, we then continue the journey to Steven's Corner.. By being late for 1 hour, we thought the others might already be there waiting for us, but it was the opposite, we're the first among everyone to reach there! LOL so we decided to wait while eating...

3 of them which is, Meng Yeow, Wei Han and Jie Lian decided to 'troll' me by saying that they're not joining us for breakfast and the badminton game as Jie Lian and Wei Han got no transport, and Meng Yeow got sudden stomach-acheness!! I FELT SO DUMB AS I ACTUALLY FELL FOR THAT PRANK ! OMG !!

After eating,Angeline, Tze Haw and I decided to leave early to go college and submit the assignments.. After submitting, its already 12.30pm, we're already 30mins late according to plan! Still, I have to send Tze Haw to work at Endah Parade, then when we arrived the sports arena, its already 1pm and the others had started playing, so we bought another court and joined them playing~

After 2 hours which is 3pm, we then decided to go 'yum cha' at the Old Town White Coffee near my house until 4.30pm... After 'yum cha-ing' we decided to leave early as Derrick and his group would like to stay a little longer to complete their PT assignment.. By leaving early, I had become the driver to send them back home and reaching home myself at around 5.30pm! wow ! what a productive day ! LOL~

Till now, my whole body is still aching after the 2 hours of aggressive badminton playing ! haha~ Hope we'll have the chance to go for the game again !! :D

Badminton !!

Today, me and some of my college friends went for badminton at the Datuk Lee Chong Wei Sports Arena after we had lunch at Old Town White Coffee Sri Petaling... We booked 2 courts from 1pm to 3pm... Then, we started playing~ For 2 hours, I continued playing without taking any long rests but of course I took a few seconds break to get some drink...

I somehow became the #foreveralone guy playing 2 vs 1 where the 1 is me.. And little did I know, after playing in such 'aggressive' way, I can't feel my right arm at the moment.. LOL~ but the price is quite cheap though, RM 8 per person for 2 hours... I shall consider of creating these kind of event again if we had the chance~ xD

After badminton, we then wanna go for a 'yum cha' session at the Starbucks Coffee at the Pearl Point Hotel~ And again, I was emo while we're there, cuz I'm just too TIRED to talk... haiz~ please don't blame me for not chatting with you guys~ xD

I thing I forgot is that we didn't get a group photo while we're there! How disappointing.. Maybe next time~

Lastly, thank you guys for attending! It was so much fun!
Thank you Chin Chun Fei, Chong Teng Fung, Chee Yong Cheng, Gan Wei Yee, Derrick Ang, Gan Meng Yeow, Chia Wei Han, Shaun Marcus, Hii Tze Haw and also Chuah Jie Lian for not minding of being the only girl there~ btw, Mr. Chan Pui Fei ! YOU BETTER JOIN US NEXT TIME ! :D

I think its time for me to get some rest... EXHAUSTED TO THE MAX !!!!!!!!!!!

First Timer !!

Wondering what I meant by my title there?

Well, it means that it was my very first time to go to a bar which is The Library at the IOI Boulevard. The surrounding there was not bad as I always thought that a lounge will be filled with smoke from the cigarettes but no, this lounge has quite some clean surroundings and atmosphere. LOL

Well, as usual, the drinks which are ordered are obviously Carlsberg, three jugs of 'em ! Besides, there's a live band when we're there too ! how enjoyable ! Speaking of beer, I only drank 3-4 glasses of beer while I'm there and I already felt abit dizzy when we're walking back to our car.. Perhaps I need more training in beer drinking? LOL

We also enjoyed choosing songs to be sang by the singer from the live band by writing the songs' name we wanted onto a piece of tissue paper and passed it to them through the waiter and waitresses.. LOL ! sadly, out of 7 songs, they only manage to sing 1 of them, which is Rolling in the Deep by Adele as they said that we can only choose certain songs which are available for them to sing..

Its a great experience for me to enter a lounge and to learn how to drink beer! Thank you for inviting and bringing me there! I will never forget that night ! Hope we'll go there again and ENJOY !

here's the group picture taken when we're there..



p.s I'm the only guy there yesterday night! LOL~ xD

It Finally Ends......

There goes the Lunar New Year of the Year of the Dragon 2012.... The closing ceremony of the ang pow receiving had been done by me officially by opening and revealing the amount of ang pows received this year... They said this year is a lucky year for the peoples who have the Zodiac Sign of the Chicken but it seems that the wealth of the Chickens are not that well..

Well, I said that cuz the amount I of ang pow money I received this year is lesser compared the the year before.. The main reason is because something 'WHITE' happened in my family and most of my relatives were not be able to give ang pows to others... All I can say is that no matter how much I received, I still felt grateful and thankful for the money I get.. Thank you everyone who gave me ANG POWS !

This Chinese New Year were kinda rush as compared to before cuz it starts 1 month earlier than last year as this year is a leap year.. Everyone don't feel the mood of CNY while we're celebrating... Lesser fireworks as compared to before, lesser fun as compared to before... Well, all I can say is that, every year will be different and I'm sure the next Chinese New Year will be BETTER !

So.. for now, lets wait till the next Chinese Celebration !!!!!

Happy Chines New Year !

Hello peeps ! Sorry for the last update.. Its been a busy week preparing for the most important celebration for us Chinese every year which is the Chinese New Year ! I had always been very excited while celebrating this wonderful new year, EXCEPT for the cleaning part.. xD

I know its the second day of the Chinese New Year today but its still the Chinese New Year right? So, I hereby wish everyone 恭喜发财 !!~ :D

These 2 days of the Chinese New Year was the first most wonderful day in 2012 as I think there are more wonderful days coming in the future. And so, on the first day of CNY, which is yesterday, I got up at 6.30am to help prepare everything and pray to symbolize the process of Open Ceremony for the year 2012 according to the Buddhist Calendar and welcome the year of the DRAGON. Then, we went to 2 different temples, one in Puchong, and one in Cheras.. Prayed for prosperity and health and then we took off back home and start the gambling ! haha~ thats what we do during CNY ! I won around RM12 I think.. what a great accomplishment in year 2012, a good start ! :D



The second day, which is today, I got up a bit late... Around 8am, then I got prepared and waited for my uncle to come and bring us to another temple again~ Then we went to my aunt's house to 拜年.. then everyone went to my house and start the talking, watching tv, and not to forget, GAMBLING~ haha.. At night, we played fireworks to get the Chinese New Year mood ! as somehow this year's CNY was a bit quiet compared to last year..

I suppose tomorrow onwards until Saturday, our family's CNY will start to be boring again as 2 relative's family is going on a trip to Cambodia leaving the rest of us here~ well, at least we're not FOREVER ALONE.. haha~ :D

Till then, Happy Chinese New Year once again ! Enjoy this prosperous and wonderful New Year !

Trip to the Hospital.....

Yesterday, I went to the Universiti Hospital (UH) in PJ as my cousin sis was admitted there.. I was worried sick ! There was a growing near her tummy and she had to undergo an operation to remove it.. Everyone was so worried while visiting except for my cousin sis, she was all cheerful, smiling, laughing, walking around talking to us... She even have the mood to go to Secret Recipe to take her lunch while my aunt accidentally fell asleep on her bed ! LOL..

And so, today morning around 9am while I'm still sleeping soundly =X the operationhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif started and it took around 3 hours + to finish the operation.. The whole family was worried for her, and so around 1pm, everyone of us was informed by my aunt that my cousin sis' operation was successful and she's out from the operation room and back to her ward.

My mum, my grandmother, my cousin bro and I went to visit her just now around 7.30pm and she looked tired, pale and energy-less lying on her bed.. The effect of the narcotic caused her to keep vomiting, but what she vomited are just phlegm.. When I saw her like that the whole time we're there, I felt so sad ! She cant even drink or eat at the moment.. :(

But there colleagues and her mum's colleagues bought flowers as 'Get Well Soon' gifts... How sweet ! you can see the pic of the flowers here~

Get well soon my dearest cousin sis ! ^_^

Genting Trip !!

On 29th December 2011 which is few days ago, my friends and I had planned to go on a 2 days 1 night vacation to Genting Highlands~ We did many plannings before this and those plans before FAILS and finally this plan at the end of the year was a success ! It took us 1-2 weeks to plan this trip.. At first we planned to go to the Cameron Highlands as I haven't been there for a long long time ! As we planned, many discussions were done and some agree and some disagree and then we changed the venue to Genting Highlands and EVERYONE agrees with it~ So, we carried on with the plans and decision~

And finally on that day, at 10am we took off from my house to Genting Highlands.. The journey took us around 2 hours, I know its a very long time as usually we only need an hour or so to reach Genting Highlands but the uncle which is the driver is a safe driver as he drove at the maximum speed of 60km/h the whole time! When we got there, its already noon which is around 12pm but the weather there is SUPER COLD.. Mist everywhere~~ KUDOS to free 'air conditioning' everywhere ! Yippeee~ xD

Then, my best friend, a.k.a Leong Kah Hoe suggested that we WALK to the mushroom farm and according to him, it is 'VERY NEAR' to our hotel.. So, we agreed and then we start walking... IT TOOK US YEARS TO WALK THERE AND THAT TIME WE'RE ALL CARRYING OUR BAGS cuz one of our friend which is supposed to book the hotel room hasn't arrive yet.. By the time we walk down the hill passing through the bus station, we decided not to visit the mushroom farm as IT IS SO DAMN FAR ! Then, we walked back up to the hotel and seriously it is a great workout and it drained most of our energy and thank GOD we received a call from our friend saying that he had arrived and so we hurry up to the hotel and waited for him.. We waited at Genting Hotel for him and he didn't show up, so we called him once again and then he told us that his dad booked Highlands Hotel instead! We were like .......... !!!! LUCKILY Highlands Hotel is just next to Genting Hotel or else he is GOING DOWN !!! LOL !

We finally got our room cards and we rushed up to our room and REST ! We talked the whole time and one of us decided to go swimming and everyone agrees except for Vincent Eng as he is not feeling well that time~ but he have no choice but to agree to follow us there and to take care of our stuff ! haha~ pity him~ xD
The water of the swimming pool is just like the hot springs in Japan~ SO COMFORTABLE! Imagining dipping into the warm water when the surrounding temperature was just 19-20 degree... AWESOME-ness !!!

We swam for like 2 hours and then we decided to leave and go back to our hotels and have our dinner which is Instant Noodles Cup.. HOW SAD !! :(
After eating, we prepared ourselves and took off to the indoor themepark ! The themepark really changed ALOT ! more and more violent games according to my personal opinion... But its not much worth it as compared to last time to play at the indoor themepark cuz the redemption of points will be converted into MYR and to buy stuff in the gift shop and the unworthy part is that the cheapest item in the shop is a pack of poker cards with the price of RM5.50! The next cheapest item based on my scanning of the items in the shop is RM16.90 which is a box of chocolate..

We spent around RM120 to play the games and the points we collected are just enough to be converted into RM14, so we chose to buy the chocolate that costs RM16.90 and we have to pay an extra of RM2.90 ! HOW UNWORTHY !

One weird thing is that as late as the night become, more and more people are coming to the themepark.. Especially small kids ! I thought small kids would need to have their good night sleep early? What's wrong with the parents nowadays? Awkward~
And so, we went back to our hotel at 12am and then to prepare ourselves for bed~

The next morning, we got up early to have our breakfast and we barged to the outdoor themepark counter to buy our tickets.. We're glad that we're 15 minutes early as we reached there when the counter haven't open yet and there is already people lining up to buy the tickets! As time pass, more and more people are lining up behind us! Aren't we glad to be here earlier than them? xD

Right after we bought the tickets and got our wristband tagged, we rushed to the 1st game, Bumper Boat~ I didn't go on that ride while the others went on it cuz I don't want to get myself wet! I helped them to take some nice pics though~ Next, we went on the 'Spinner' which is like a swing and we sit on it and it start spinning with different angle ! IT WAS AWESOME !



The next ride was the most EXCITING one! The 'Space Shooter'! I have never played that before in my life until then, and now I would never ever get on that ride again! ITS WAS SO SCARY THAT I KEPT MY EYES CLOSED FOR THE WHOLE TIME ! When it rushed down, the pressure was changing so quickly until I can't scream! MY GOD ! Thank GOD I can stand within my feet after that game.. LOL~ After that, we went for the 'Grand Prix Fun Kart'.. One major complaint for the game is that the helmet and the seat guards are EXTREMELY SMELLY ! OMG TO THE MAX !!!!!!!!! Yuck !



Then we went on to the next ride, 'Corkscrew' which is the roller coaster~ I yelled throughout the whole ride.. LOL ! haha~ xD
Song Sheng and Shao Qin decided to go on the 'Sungai Rajang Flume Ride' which is the game I object the most at the outdoor themepark as it will 1000000000% make you WET! But the insist to go on that ride so we let them be~ and as expected, they came back with their whole body wet! Then, my best friend LKH had got bored of the exciting games and decided to go on the 'Mini Train'.. LOL ! How embarrassing ! xD

Then, I decided to ride the Spinner once again as it is SOOO FUN ! But this time Vincent do not want to get on it anymore.. LOL~ after that, it started to rain but the good thing is we got to try every game of the outdoor themepark so it is worthy after all~ ^_^

We went back and have our lunch, then we return to our hotel room and get some rest.. Then, Song Sheng suggested to go play snooker but me and LKH don't wanna join them, so we both stayed in the hotel room continue to watch TV and talk talk talk~
Then, the uncle called saying that he reached the hotel and this means its time for us to go back~

Although this trip is very exhausting, I enjoyed it to the MAX ! Genting won't be that fun unless we're going with our best and good friends~ Thank you guys for making this trip an AMAZING one~ We must do it more often! but next time, no more Genting~ the food are expensive ! >_< there flies my savings....... donated to Genting Highlands for them to build more stuffs to increase their profit... T^T
