Second entry to Short Trip in Genting :: Day 1 second half and Day 2 first half

Moving on... We were kinda spoiled for choices to makan-makan; it was actually causing us headache to decide where to have our dinner. First World has been so commercialized since the last time we were here; the place resembles a shopping complex more than a hotel anytime, anywhere you look.

note: According to an anonymous source, come of the brands there had their stock flown in directly from HK; therefore, the items on sale are actually more unique/limited/newer than those sold elsewhere (KL for example). Pay attention when shopping next time.

In the end, we judged the food by its decoration and decided to eat here:



Which was a bad move; either we ordered the wrong dishes or everything's like that (its like that, yo!) or maybe it's just us. Both the Hainanese Chicken Rice and the Nanyang Fried Rice taste ... erm ... eeehhh ... plain?

Hainanese Chicken Rice :: you serious?!?!?

Frice rice with funny keropok and slices of cold fried egg... eeewww

As you might have guessed, the unsatisfactory meal + cold weather = find other food lor; within an hour or two or so, we headed for another eatery to compensate for the previous torture. We went to flavours and ate light (supper time nia)...

I took a Iced Sea Coconut + Longan
She took a Hot Black Sesame Gluitonious Ball (something like that lar) also ordered a Thai styled tauhu thingy (hot, sour and salty + spicy != NanoNano)

aaaahhhhhhhh... stuff are much, much better as displayed by mun yee

Supper + Sleep = Next Morning

a view from bed to window

After a hearty although not fulfilling but what to do cause its free breakfast, we headed for a short walk towards the outdoor theme park. To our amazement, it was raining again...

damn cold, misty and wet out there

never failing to take a picture first, bbbrrr...freaking cold...

As opposed to the comment posted by SmashpOp that I was afraid to take theme park rides; it was an action by people of the higher level that prevented me from doing so... and I have no choice but to abide, cheh wah!

Instead, we headed for shopping and aimed rested & relaxed until lupa want to makan lunch! At about 1600, we decided to have a light snack due to the fact that we were tad bit hungry and dinner was soon. Snacking soon turned into a full fledge meal as the pictures in the menu was irresistable (Food do look nicer when we're hungry...)

Soya Duck with Wantan Mee

MMMmmmMMMmmmMMMmmm...yummy, yummy, yummy...

That's all for now folks, stay tuned for the second half of second day and first half of the final day!

= = = = =

Was almost calar-ed by an express bus on my way home... stupid express bus driver, forcing its way into other lanes at a corner summore! Was so damn freaking close that I can draw a pig clearly on the side of the bus using a marker pen! I shall file a complaint! I shall!

i'm b.a.c.k.

I have absolutely no luck with our transportation system. Seriously! No, I did not get summoned-you wicked one. As you might have noticed/known (else, please scroll down one (1) entry), I was off to Genting on Saturday afternoon. Driving up, for the first time ever (I can sense you mocking me with your evil laughter), the least expected thing to happen was a congestion. For the gazzilions times I've been to Genting, be it by, bus, bus, bus or bus, never once have I been caught in a jam, not even on Saturdays!!! And I got stuck in ONE in my virgin drive up; due to road re-construction!

Woe is me! Why does it have to happen now! Mind you, but they seem to be layering the whole freaking highway! Oh, the horror! Anyways, the journey up which should be about an hour stretched on for another 30 minutes :: which was still minor considering that I've drove to Penang before. But all the hill climbing made me sienz... should have taken the SkyWay up instead...

Kenari overtaking me... :(

The power of Kenari...sudah-pun pergi jauh-jauh

After a long journey up of seeing other vehicles overtaking me effortlessly, I finally reached the peak. As norm, headed for check-in. The washroom beside the lift stinks beyond normal human comprehension, and water (you may replace this word with other liquorish substances) was slowly flowing out of it. Fearing that my camera may not be able to sustain the hazard, I chose not to take any picture of it; else, its lens might shatter!

There were just so mannniiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeee people checking-in

The people seen above is just a small handful of all present at the lobby area. After check-in and confirming that the package does include free breakfast for 2 (yippee!!!), headed to da room! This time, it was on level 22, practically the highest level I've been allocated to before :: blink! blink!

It was quiet cold and misty at the moment of our arrival, even the theme park was not functioning. Luckily, it did not rain on our way up. Due to the inoperability of the outdoor theme park, the indoors were practically thronged with hyperactive kids springing everywhere. Oh, the horror! One can practically hear kids screaming every 10 seconds; the frequency is faster is faster than screams from the indoor coaster ride. Imagine that...

Mind you/me/he/she/everybody... I do like children; however (there's always a catch, eh?), Hundreds of hysterically screaming childrens running and prancing around is a no, no, no, no, no!!! Drives me nuts...

Theme park pun bebanyak rides tak operate...

Fountain at lobby area of Genting Hotel...

Walked around to enjoy the cool breeze before heading for dinner... cold weather makes me wanna eat more frequently!!! And frequently I shalt eat!

mun yee styling a new look

Stay tuned for more... jed signing off for now... mau tido lar...

bday b.o.y.

As of today, 21st March 2006, JasonGKY a.k.a. SmashPop @ SmashPop.Net has officially turned 23!!! Twenty three; dua puluh tiga, yee sap sam, er sher sharn; I think that's enough to actually stress how old he is. Taking a look at his picturous blog, one would never realized that he is of such a matured age. Please thank me for being the Sherlock Holmes in revealing his true identity, i mean age...


In case you are wondering, although I may look more matured, I am younger than the individual abovementioned!

Emerging...
Lately, I've been approached by an Individual, let's name him Marco. Marco got my mobile number from someone (if I found out someone indeed exposed my number, he/she will be getting FIRST CLASS treatment from me!) out of no-where and contacted me regarding a business opportunity. Well, business opportunity has become so synonymous with MultiLevel Marketing (MLM) that when you hear it, you'll almost immediately brush it aside. I was not really interested to know what he was offering, rather, I would like have a look at him since his voice sounds familiar (I am not gay, I like/love gals); who knows this dude might be some of my long lost friends.

Seems like there's a new generation of marketing plan out there, instead of selling a product, they sell you knowledge :: that's what they "claim" they are doing. After long session of explanation and interrogation, I conclude that it still looks like MLM. dang! The typical things being brought forward are:
1. Need to buy some recommended tapes, which will contain information that is absolutely relevant to your success
2. You need to attend seminars (not free), which will contain information that is absolutely relevant to your success
3. You need to pay an annual fee, which will contain information that is absolutely relevant to your success
4. You need to get other people to join, which will contain information that is absolutely relevant to your success
5. You need to know how to draw circles and connect them, which will contain information that is absolutely relevant to your success

Basically, those are some of the pointers of potential MLM business; business opportunity my ass. Good for getting quick buck from friends, nothing else! This time, instead of packaging everything to a product and coaxing you to buy and join; these dudes package it as a business concept :: using the 4 quadrants concept introduced by Mr. Robert T. Kiyosaki. Very resourceful bunch of people.

Me, currently...
These few days, I've been quite depressed :: If the next thing on your mind is to say that I'm having PMS, fark you! I suspect it might be due to:
lack of sleep, depression, multi-level pressure, depression, holiday-less, depression, financial instability, depression, bleak future, depression, depression, depression...

I just feel mightily depressed!

I will now go sulk in the corner of my room. Leave me be.
