Genting 2009

my first holiday trip to genting this year
after like 1 year of mugging?
supposed to have friends who are accompanying me there
but all are busy with work
so i guess i shall go there alone with my parents

wake up so early in the morning to catch the coach
was a long bus ride
but not too long as i expected
we reached there about 12 plus?

so we took a little rest and went about with lunch and casino for my parents
for lunch we ate at hou mei (好味 in canto)
i ate a big hawaiian burger and it's so filling
my mum ate curry noodles , cannot rem what my dad eats
and then suddenly in the middle the light goes off
electricity got tripped off or sth

after that i went to shop for things for myself
yes alone....
look at some clothes
wanted to buy a tank top but hai.. no colour of my choice
and i don wanna get a black wan cuz i know some peeps in the class has it and i don want to clash with them
so forget it
saw some clothes but they are quite ex
and then some too outdated liao

bought some earrings and of course... i got a nice fancy hat=)
then my watch is spoiled
supposed to meet my dad at the hotel at 530pm
my watch keeps reading 440pm so i thot there is still time
but when i checked my hp... it's way beyond time!
my poor father squatting outside the hotel cuz the key is with me
hee hee hee

went dinner tgt...
then after that i go walk walk with my dad
play some arcade games and we are lousy at it
so ===== waste money
then my papa bring me to this lounge...
some bar.. i cant rem the name
yeah im 18 i can go in!
to watch arsenal vs newcastle??? or portsmouth ???cant remember
drank my drink...
then so bored...
so i play my phone games
waiting for my mum to bring me to hotel

i'm tired so i turned in early
alone in the hotel
my mummy arh...
she says she want to leave after i've slept ...
so she stared at me when i was closing my eyes
i was wondering ... how come suddenly no sound
so i opened my eyes and there she is staring at me...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
how to sleep when somebody is staring at me??
so i got her to leave first...
sooner or later .. i slept! ALONE

woke up for bfast at the first world VIP cafe
cuz im not member.. so i have to pay
not in good appetite for bfast
so i eat little bit
so many ppl queueing up for eggs and omelette

then i realised that there ISNT ANY AIRCON in genting..
not sure of the meeting rooms
but there isnt any aircon
hai... after 10 years.. i just realised it
they ventilate the whole place using the cool air from outside...
so the windows are basically opened a little
so genting actually save up alot on electricity and water too cuz they have their own supply
and also paper... materials... they have own resources
some where around the mountain perhaps??

my father went spa...
i wanted to go but the voucher only allows one person
so my papa went instead
let him try how is it like inside
apparently there is VERY FEW pple .. close to zero who visited the spa
i shall go there one day when im older
so i went to play some arcade again.. waste money
get some tickets to exchange for some lame things

walk around for more clothes and accessories again
didnt find sth which catches my eye
except for this disney sticker which has my name printed on it

then esp shops like GIRL or MISS WHATEVER
they are SO colourful and fanciful and flowerly and so many many designs
cant stand this kind of fashion

then my mum join me and was hungry
so we went to 上海滩 for a lunch
i ate the ramen... and it's very nice!!!
my mum was having peanut paste... nice too!
then we went to shop for clothes
didnt find sth which is worth it and sth that suits me
hmmm... we walked into the fair that is currently selling mongolia's souvenir
my mum was looking so engrossed and i was waiting for her in G2000
wondered why is she taking so long to come
oh.... she is watching an artist from shanghai drawing a self portrait of a lady
i WANTED 1 too in the beginning...
so we considered for awhile before i wanted it
actually i wanted the small one.. but the artist has no more materials
so we settled with the RM100 including laminating
at least i can get to seat down for awhile after shopping
like SO MANY PPLE are looking at me...
look at me for what??? look at the drawing
i feel as if im a clown ... cuz i was smiling all the way
my mum was looking intently at the drawing
after 20 mins or so... the drawing came out...



in the first place i little bit don find it similar..
but then the trick is... dont look at the front of the drawing..
turn it to the back... and look at the reflection
i got a shock!!!
so similar!!

but luckily the artist drew it nice!!!
at least it looks pretty!!!
alot of pple who crowded around me think it's pretty....
or are they referring to me that i'm pretty???

my mumtold me she got a shock when the artist started to draw my upper part of the face
that my eyes look exactly the same like her when she was around my age=)

it's nice and worth it
i shall go frame it at clementi when i have the time
that is my treasure!

we went down to mushroom farm to have our dinner
it's nice dinner...
i'm eating good...
just that the 黄酒鸡 tastes too WINE-Y!!!

we came up again early so to catch the fireworks!!!
it's the 15th day which is the last day of lunar new year 2009
so genting is presenting fire crackers and fire works
exactly on 8.08pm
for 8 mins

here are some nice ones i caught
btw... i was waiting anxiously for the fireworks right in my hotel sofa
and i don have to squeeze with the crowd to watch the fireworks...
perhaps this is the nicest part of watching fireworks=)
my family will not forget this moment...
perhaps we wanna come up to genting every 15th day of lunar again?
how i wish somebody is there for me...




it's figure 8!






yes... the evening was kinda bright.. 7 plus in the evening when we already started waiting for the night to come...


the flower is bigger than my face!

i guess the nicest part was the fireworks afterall
and the fact that i have my own self portrait!!
i must hold it every second when i am going back to singapore...
tired again...
so i didnt go out after the fireworks..
just slept cuz it's bus ride again the next day

the last day in genting...
had bfast at first world vip cafe
then i shop for an hour or so at the cultural village
buying lots of things
and i said i must at least get a shirt or wad...
so i bought 2 shirts ... which has genting designs
bargain for 2 bucks to be discounted...
kinda regretted cuz the phillipines one was nicer.. then i didnt have money then
bte i think cultural village is an interesting place
cuz it is a long corridor which consists of small shops named the countries that sell souvenirs that those countries are famous of..
like... the middle east. india. korea. japan. myammar. thailand. phillipines. indonesia. china malaysia. traiditional malaysia. singapore. i think that should be all
i bought alot of earrings.. can wear in school when i'm teaching too!! and i love them much...
and also some souvenirs for my friends...
wanna buy alot of more special stuff then...
then we headed down to the bus terminal and boarded the bus...
and it go round and round the mountain...
til it stopped at the usual place where i always have my bak kut teh to warm up my stomach
then... straight to yong peng for 3 to 4 hours or so
i didnt know that the bus didnt stop at one more stop..
so i slept for a while and around 3pm i woke up... feeling urgent
i wondered... when is the bus stopping... maybe 45 min more???
then i waited and waited and waited.. listening to my walkman phone
til 5pm.. still haven stop...
then my neck grew as long as giraffe's... when is the bus stopping???
my father was as anxious as me.. worrying that my bladder will burst...
so i got too desperate in need for a toilet..
then the bus suddenly stopped in the middle of the highway..
kanna caught by police car...
then it took quite a while to settle
as in.. we are not speeding??? nor we are driving too slowly??
what the problem?
so... the tour lady says: the policeman says... ur bus plate number is too vague... not clear... cannot see from far..
i was like........................ speechless
i think they got nothing better to do
waste several hundreds of bucks like that cuz of one stupid carelessness
so i was as urgent...
didnt care..
i started looking at the signboard which tells me how long i have to go before i reach yong peng
then i think the bus is travelling around 110km/h...
so i started calculating the time...
then got fooled by the signboard cuz the yong peng got 2 parts...
the entrance...
and the small minimart / hawker centre
finally at 6pm we reach...
and i faster run to the toilet..
waited for 3 hours liao..........
exciting bus ride huh???
reach singapore kinda early... 7pm?
took a cab home...
and i have to meet the principal and mr chua tmr!!!
here's a video of the fireworks that i cropped out..
i think if u search in youtube... there are nicer ones with sound effects...
and the camera effects is good..
unlike mine...
should go get a camera soon...
