Genting Rawkzz!! if only i had the money.....:(

Before I start on this post, I'd like to announce that I just posted the 25th July post not 5 minutes ago because I left it on "Draft". Forgotten about it. -_-" The title states that there's some rantings but just forget about that part because I forgot what rantings I was supposed to say O_o

Okay, getting on with this post.
Two days ago(Thursday) I followed my aunt and cousin to Genting Highlands. Earlier on, I was feeling because I didn;t have much to do besides my assignments. Because I took so long to bathe and change, we left at about 8pm to Gohtong Jaya to sit the cable car. Aunt was driving, and I am amazed as she can drive using manual transmission :D On the way, twice, or thrice we took the wrong turning and ended somewhere else. Stuck in Selayang for more than 30 minutes...and had to stop at 2 petrol stations to ask for directions. Often, there were signboards bearing the words "Genting Highlands" but then the next thing we know is that the next signboard doesn't state that we were going the right way!

Oh and the signboards are more confusing. One minutes, the first signboard says turn right to GH. The next thing, it says turn left to GH. Like, how are we supposed to be on the right, and at the same time, on the left of the road??? I wonder...

After a couple of wrong turns and petrol stations later....we were nearly reaching Gohtong Jaya. It was already 10.03pm and we were on the verge of panic because my grandfather, who works near GH, assumes the clable car operates until 10pm. Only when he called my aunt when we reached Gohtong Jaya that he told us the cable car operates until 11pm! Thank goodness....

A friend of his took us up to the cable car area with his van. Reached there at 10.40pm. More than enough time to reach to the cable car place, and ride to the long-awaited GH!! Muahahar! :D My aunt said it takes approximately 50 minutes to reach GH using the cable car. O_o so long? I ever realised! Next time must count ^_^

It was late when we finally reached the hotel room. After washing up, aunt went off to sleep earlier than my cousin and I. Was channel surfing and watched some gross stuff on Fear Factor (buekkkzzz!). Then watched one ballet show story. About the life of this ballerinas, and their ups and downs in ballet. Teaches us how to cope with life, and not to give up. Reminds me of this one quote I read in a magazine "When God closes one door, there's another door waiting for us to open and explore". Haa....so does that mean I should stop college and go exploring? Haha :P

The next day, we got up almost late and went to a restaurant on one of the lower grounds. Oh my god everything costs more than double or triple the price you can buy in PJ or KL. Like, a simple bowl of curry mee, you can get at around RM3 or less in PJ/KL, but here it's like RM8.50! A hot cup of Milo is RM2.50 >_<

Later on, my aunt and cousin tried their luck to go into the Monte Carlo casino. My cousin is 16, but she looks mature so my aunt tried to take her in, in hopes that they would not check her IC. But most unfortunately, they did and she had to come out. In the end, my aunt went in alone, and my cousin and I went around the place. Found an arcade, and played some games. I dived for the Daytona USA first! I liked this game alot. But I was wondering....the stering seemed lighter than I last played....weird. And the car is most likely to crash if u turn to fast. They started to change from tokens to topup cards. It's exactly like what they used in KDU...where you scan and they deduct your credit instantly. And it's under StarTag too, same as KDU O_o I had to use one hand to hold the Card, and one hand to steer the car, and I found so much easier to do that. Even weirder huh? That was the retro Daytona, there was another more modern Daytona. Darnit, should have gone to that one! >_< I ended up at place 36th after all the crashes with 2 hands. *sob*

Later my cousn asked me to play Marvel Heroes with her. Haha. Battled with a few characters. We won a couple of times, and after that, credit finished! So fast! Was expected...the games takes up alot of credit. Started to walk around the place. Entered the indoor park and browsed through the shops there. Nothing much. went upstairs and into Girls. Saw this mood ring which I hadn't seen for so long! Tried on a couple and all of them showed dark blue(Relaxed). Then tried on the last one and had this green and yellow colours....Mixed Emotion. Hah, wonder what's that mean. After one hour or so,we got a call from Aunt cause it's time to take the cable back to Gohtong Jaya. Woohoo! Then it's smooth sailing back to KL :D

That's all. Kinda boring eh? Haha

P.S. during the trip, I bought two rolls of thread. Finally can sew the sequins on my tee. If I can, I'll post the picture. Camera's outta battery anyway.
