Hoooray! I just came back from my Genting trip last nite! :) Yeah.. had been v bz lately (as usual..) coz of change of job scopes, trying to fit into the new environment.. n also been creating some new jewellery as well :)
Yes I haven been blogging since duno when.. yup i shall update my genting trip today :)
Genting Highlands Trip on 2nd Dec to 4th Dec '06!~First Day 2nd Dec~
Okay the coach gota leave at 6.30 am sharp.. so we had to wake up reeeeaaaallllly early on Saturday.. hmm we reach ICA before 6am! but.. only to find out that the waiting place is opposite Lavender MRT station... the itenerary did say that it is AT ICA (Lavender MRT Stn) what.... :x Anyway.. we board the bus without too much delay.. n here we go to Malaysia!! :)
On the coach~ I slept at ard 1.30am the nite before and woke up at 4.45 am in the morning. i expect to fall into deep slp while in the coach but i din! hmm.. luckily i had my ipod shuffle n my korean songs! :p :p
Now we are at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.. (Sad to say...) The country that has got lousy service and bad environmental condition... :x (I'm sorry to Malaysians if you are reading this.. but the country really isn't as clean as Singapore and I am really proud to say that at least Singapore is much much more service oriented in most areas.. :x)
Gee.. Lee Hom for Celcom Malaysia! They have alot of these big big sign boards for advertisments.. It's really interesting to see them!
So misty! It started to rain very heavily went we were about to reach the top of the mountain..
Yay we reach Genting Highlands First World Hotel! A 3-star hotel and err.. our room was not cleaned when we check in.. So BAD rite!? Omg.. And we called the Housekeeping number and they say they will get someone to clean it asap. So we went to walk ard with our heavy bags at the First World Plaza to check out what we can do in the meantime.. 1 hour later we went back and IT WAS NOT CLEANED YET!!!! How can that happen!!? Oh gosh.. luckily we saw the cleaners nearby and asked them to clean it immediately.. We nearly wana lodge a complaint but somehow we realised that it is of no use.. They probably cant be bothered.. :x So we had to go out again and walk for another 35 mins.. So sad.. so heavy.. Finally we went back to our cleaned room at 4.30pm.. Few hours wasted just like that.. :x Well apart from the uncleaned room thing, everything else seems fine.. So I will still recommend the hotel IF YOU ARE GOING ON A BUDGET HOLIDAY...
Veggie at First World Plaza
Brownie at First World Plaza
A colorful and bright First World Plaza.
We din go into the Haunted Adventure coz we were both TOOO SCARED!! haha.. and i took a pic of the guy standing outside like some bouncer.. :p He can't be bothered to pose for me anyway! He just crossed his arms all the way while i took pics of him.. Chey!
We din do much on the first day coz of the silly hours wasted for the room to be cleaned so that we can put our bags inside.. :x The only thing we did was to line up (FOR SOOO LONG!) for the 4D motion master show.. It was Ali Baba showing.. Ok show but we think that the 3D glasses are spoilt! The images dun really pop out in front of you.. You could see that the pictures are still in the screen.. (Singapore Discovery Centre ones are better!!!!) The only fun part is the sudden mist/smoke that is sprayed at our neck when the show was showing a sharp spear coming out of the wall..And also the snakes that suddenly Ssss around your legs! Hee.. ya.. these are the only fun parts.. :)
Then we went for buffet dinner at Genting Ballroom at Genting Hotel. Yup the food was ok la.. the whole placed was booked by Income SRC as it was for the SRC Family Day '06. Me and veggie won some consolation prize during the lucky draw.. A free Mysteria Genting Highlands polo-tee and sports bag.. :) Haha.. aiya why only lucky here and not during the SRC dinner that was held in June..!!? :p
Veggie in thick cold cold mist!!! We went out for awhile just to take pics in the mist!
Brownie in blurry mist..
My first day ended quite badly cos i was down with a headache n dry nose! n i couldn go visit more stuff after the buffet dinner.. so veggie had to pei me go back to hotel room and take my medicine n slp early.. i guess itz coz i couldn slp in the coach at all and therefore lack of slp.. And oh.. plus the coach aircon also.. :x
Sweet Dreams.. I love veggie :)
~2nd Day 3rd Dec~
Yay!! It's time for OUTDOOR THEMEPARK! hahaha a very nice view of the themepark + First World Hotel..
Yaya the hotel we stayed in.. Quite colorful rite?
Itz veggie n brownie in outdoor theme park!
The FLYING COASTER! Haha.. I was acually VERY VERY SCARED coz i have phobia for Roller Coasters! but i played 2 times of Flying Coaster! haha we payed extra RM10 just to get to play this and we are entitled to 5 times of the ride! Haha it was really fun and the most thrilling one that I have ride on at the outdoor theme park! It is their signature ride! But somehow i thought it could feel even more scary before i played it!!! Yay!! and we paid for the photos which we are in the ride for RM8 each ONLY! Yes it is a must-go-on-this-ride Ride!
Yay the dinosaurland! Hmm.. itz nothing much actually but the park is quite nice for taking pictures.. :)
Aiyo Veggie n his Nestle ice-creams the whole day!
Cheek cheek ;) I look like mushroom!!!
A nice view of the hills from far! Oh therez something really nice about Genting, itz the skies and the weather!! Really very beautiful and cooling! :D
Yay! The cyclone! Gee.. Malaysia's First Roller Coaster (it says) But we have to queue up SUPER LONG for all the rides so most of the time was spent on queueing.. :x But this one is really fun! Itz an appetizer for those thrilling rides.. :)
Then we sat on the Flying Dragon (din take pic of it) and itz very excting as well! :) haha it just runs/flys ard the wet park area and in to the First Worl Plaza and out and twirls ard n back! :)
The CorkScrew Roller Coaster! We see alot of ppl queueing up for this.. Seems super fun but SCARY! Veggie later wanted to try it but i was insistent that i will have no regrets even if i dun try it :) haha coz im really VERY SCARED! Especially the turnings and the circles and the high high drops! OMG!!! haha.. so i told veggie that we go play flying coaster first then come back i see him play the CorkScrew Roller Coaster.. But somehow i was too tired n a lil sick (again!) after the 2 rounds of Flying Coaster (but it was reallllyyy fun!).. so me n veggie went to eat Pizza Hut!
Yuummmyyy Large Pepperoni Delite with Stuff Crust! :) RM30 only! And we ordered a pitcher of 7-up RM6.90 only somemore! :) Oh oh! dun eat the KFC and MacDonalds Genting pls.. they taste bad and are VERY EXPENSIVE! 1 KFC 2-pc chicken meal is RM14.90! SO CRAZY! Err.. the chicken tasted like normal malay fried chicken.. not the unique types we get to eat in Singapore.. Mac and KFC chicken tasted the same! OMG!
Haha.. self-timer photo, us with our Flying Coaster shot!!
Okay then we we went back to the hotel room to rest.. We had to catch the "Mysteria Believe the Impossible" Show at 9pm at the Pavillion in First World Plaza.. so we left the room at ard 8pm and went to sit on the Indoor Ferris Wheel first..
A blurry view of the Plaza from the Ferris Wheel :) Oh we sat on it for like duno how many rounds! And the kids with us (we duno who they are..) kept playing and make the thing shaky! Oh my god! was so scared coz itz soo high and im actually afraid of heights one.. Anyway after that we rushed for the Mysteria show..
The mysteria show was quite interesting only when there are things to see like the magic shows, acrobatics and amazing shooting/archery.. haha.. other than that i basically fell aslp during those dancing parts which weren't worth watching..
After the show we went to ride on the Euro Express in the indoor theme park. it was SOOO FUNNN! haha.. We played a total of 4 times till 12am!
And finally i get to sit on a bumper car for the very first time in my life! haha veggie was beside me n i drove the car ard. But i was very silly coz i kept running onto the walls/pillars a few times.. wanted to bump our car onto those kids who cut our queue but failed! :x Oh the malaysians very good at cut-queuing! Oh my God.. :x
Another pic of me and veggie :)
We reached hotel room at 1am++.. So tired.. Sweet Dreams..
~Day 3 4th Dec~
The coach brought us first to some place in Selangor to buy their local goodies n i bought 2 big bags of muruku! Yay!! haha i love murukus.. :) And then we were brought to 1 Utama Shopping Centre at Selangor and near Petaling Jaya as well :) The shopping ctr is very big! but nothing much i could buy coz the prices are about the same as Singapore.. Only bought some cute Disney stationery which are very cheap and worth buying frm MPH. Before the trip i checked out that there are a Craft shop and Beads shop. But the stuff are all even more expensive than those sold in Singapore shops, they can be 1 or 2 times more expensive. Siao! :x Might as well come back here and buy...
We were looking for food and see what we ate!? Itz A&W! Whoaaa!! So happyyy!! Haha the float and curly fries were sooo goood! And itz cheap! Total only RM20 for both our coney dog and crispy chicken meal! Whoa soo shiok! Thatz the best fast-food meal we had for the whole genting trip :)
Itz veggie with his long-lost favourite A&W meal :)
This is really interesting! A muslim Barbie i saw at a RM5 shop in 1 Utama! :D
Okay.. finally home sweet home on the way back to Singapore.. A 6 hour journey.. God blessed us with a happy and safe trip.
The coach leader was a rather lousy one as he did not do any head count thru out and we nearly left a stop-over place without one of the coach members coming back yet. All the coach leader asked was "Is everybody here? Are your partners here already..?" Oh gosh! i mean, what if both the partners are not here? How will he noe? oh my God.. sad to say he is one of the income staff.. :x i probably will be more careful if i ever go for any activity under him.. hope therez some evaluation or feedback thing for this trip :x
Conclusion: A very happy and fun trip with dearest Veggie :D Now looking forward to the SRC Bangkok Shopping Trip with Veggie, Zandy and Marie :D YAY!
Good Nite! :D
