thoughtS of the day
____________________________________________________


on MYSELF:

I am such a thief. I only download free stuff, like fonts, online. If I have to pay, I won't download. Isn't it the same like downloading free songs, free movies online. Piracy is thief. Piracy is illegal.

on Maurice:

He's not stingy, just a soft spot for saving money.

on Mummy:

She's such a busybody if she ever finds out someone is courting me. She'll bug me the whole day on things like, "Are you meeting him? When will you be seeing him again? How come he never bring you out to meet his friends? He don't care about you?". Super kaypoh....

on Parents:

They always know what you are up to. Not saying it out do not mean they are dumb.
Parents are not stupid.

on DHI:

Very professional working environment. Very condusive to work. But seemed to lack a little human touch. I wonder if I like it. I like the professional style, but I also want human touch.

on Cards:

Never in my life have I wrote so many birthday or farewell cards within 2 months.

on Parties:

Never in my life have I been to so many parties in 2 months. Well, these are not the usual clubbing kinda parties, but food and drinks and etc. My company has parties almost every other week. And without fail, my uni friends have lotsa birthday parties too. Oh, plus Alex's and Hazel's, but both of their's are in Double 0.

on Leung Chun Fai:

Why hasn't he replied my email.. . :( . . I need to get his approval.

on Julian:

I still find him weird. After working so long with him, still weird. He just got weirder and weirder day by day.

By the way, he's the one that I mentioned to some of you about. The super skinny guy (skinner than Sam), on high protein diet and recently he's fasting. But this is not the only thing he's weird about.

! Pink Panda !
____________________________________________________



Pink Panda

This is my newest creation.

pink teddy bear + panda -> pink panda

Reasons behind this creation.

Pink teddy bear: The other day I told my uncle that I was going Genting. It reminded him of the time we went together when I was barely 20 months old. He claimed that I had not learnt the skill of walking. But in the fotos, there are images of me standing upright all by myself. Anyway, he said he had to carry me everywhere I go, and I was like a pink teddy bear, just because my jacket was pink and fluffy and he had to carry me everywhere he goes.

Panda: I've dark eye-rings recently.

Pink Panda: Because it sounded a tiny winny bit like pink panther. hahaha.

Brrrr....
____________________________________________________


Now at work and blogging. Hah. It seemed to be raining and guess what, my collegues rolled down the binds again. Haha. They always like to do that which I never understood why.

It should be quite cold now. Everyone's wearing thick jacket but I'm alright. Probably the coldness does not have much effect on me, because I just came back from Genting. :P

I'm supposed to go to the sunny island called Tioman. But some couple just quarrel and never continue organising. I shan't say names, but you guys know huh .. :P. In the end, we went Genting without the couple. Muhaha.

This is the first time I went overseas with my primary school friends. This is also the first time I took bus to Genting. I think the last time I went, I was in Primary school. The roads really changed a lot. They are very much better and looks safer compared to last time.

Anyway, because this is the first time I'm going there without my FAMILY and on a BUS, I'm rather excited and felt a slight pinch of worry. Cos I always heard feng complaining about the long trip. And, guess what, I am so "fortunate" that 2 people helped me pack my bag, til my bag was overly packed. It was rather bulky and I brought extra clothes. But the great thing is someone got me to bring medications along, which was slightly helpful too.

The journey there was alright. Not as bad as I thought. I took the Grassland coach with TV, which cost S$15 more than normal coaches. It was really comfortable. I even watched 2 movies on the coach! When we reached Malaysia, we could finally on the TV. I started watching ICE AGE, a show that I used to think that it's not good. After watching, the show is actually not bad, but I like ICE AGE 2 more. When Ice Age ended, it reached its first pit stop. We had Ramly burger and Kaya balls. Their Ramly burger dun taste good. Aswad's one is 200% better. So not all Malaysian Ramly burger is nice.

When we got back on the bus, I watched other show, 7 Swords. I'm quite amazed by the shows I choose, because when I'm done with the second show, I reached 2nd pit stop, the petrol kiosk. But everyone on the coach was sleeping, so no one went down. Soon after, we reached Gentings at around 0500hr.

We did not have any hotel room, cos we could only check in at 2pm. So we deposit our bags in the baggage counter and went to casino first.

The guys played Baccarat first. Then Shuling saw an auntie with RED underwear.

S: That auntie is wearing a red underwear. (Pointing at an old auntie wearing skirt.)
As usual, I'm a bit blind with these stuff.
M: How did you know? (Kept looking at her skirt, wondering if Shuling has x-ray eyes)
S: Neh, you see, the big piece of red panty. (Pointing at her panty that came out of her skirt.)

It's quite gross, cos it's also not that kinda nice nice panty, but 100% cotton and looks that those HUGE auntie panty.

Then we moved on to other games, like the dice one and 3 picture. Shuling is really very lucky that night / morning. She covered the losses of Weiliang and earned another 1k ringgit.I kept bugging them to get out, cos I am tired and super bored.I'm the only one that din really sleep on the bus. I'm a super low risk-taker, so I dun really gamble. I think I lost 50 ringgit the first morning to the 3 Pictures. It cost 50 ringgit per game and I lost the very one time I bet and so I stopped, revealing the low risk-taking me. hah.

We tolerated til 1030 in the casino, til the shops opened. Since Shuling earned 1k, breakfast cum lunch was on them. Shuling's favourite food there was Pizza Hut, so our first meal stop was PIZZA HUT. We ordered those 2 Medium size pizza set and it only cost 53 ringgit. Weiliang kept saying, the meal is on the CASINO. haha.


Weiliang and Shuling at Pizza Hut

We walked around a bit and checked in at around 1300.

Actually I think Guan is rather unlucky for this trip, for all the things that had happened. Guan was my roomie, and the bed that he picked, was stained with yellow thingy. GROSS. For complete list of why Guan is super unlucky, click here. But we dun really care. After bathing, we just knocked out.

And we just woke up for dinner at around 6 plus. Weiliang brought us to some ZHI CHA store up the hill. The food there was alright, probably better than those in the hotels. It cost 120 ringgit. We ordered Oatmeal Prawns, Sambal Kangkong, Claypot Curry Fishhead (not bad, but weird), Sweet sour pork (which reminded me of the Xilin XXL chicken chop) and 2 big piggy bao.

On the way back to the hotel, they passed by a mini temple. As usual, my dear pan tang friends will go in a pray for luck, me on the other hand was taking foto everywhere. hehee.


Temple

We went back and they wanted to go back to casino, but Shuling can't go in now, as she was actually underage by 3 months. So I went shopping with her. We walked around the FIRST WORLD HOTEL Plaza and explored many places. We almost got lost too. Surprisingly, the shops closed at around 2300hr. The massage there is quite cheap compared to Singapore. It just cost 48 ringgit.


Voir Shoe
This is a pair of shoes that I want to buy. But last piece, and it's ribbon had came out.


We met the guys after that and went back to the hotel to rest. Guan decided to call it a day, cos he was feeling unwell. The rest of us went back to casino cos we gotta wait of XL and JX to arrive at around 0600hr. When XL arrived, Weiliang went to fetch them and I stayed with Shuling. That night itself, she earned another 1k ringgit. I feel that she is a careful gambler but a daring one too. Sometimes when I looked at her gamble (not only in this trip), she's quite cute. She will think and think and think and try to make the best decision. But in this trip, her luck is there.

After XL arrived, we went back to hotel room. Both Guan and Weiliang are down. Guan kept having diarrhea and Weiliang abdominal area was in pain. I pass both of them the medications that I brought (fortunately I brought related drugs, hahaaaaaa). But Weiliang's case was very bad, he went to see doc about 1 hr later. It cost 100 ringgit. Weiliang could not care much about it, cos he was very much in pain.

Next morning I woke them up again. I think I bugged them to wake up everytime in this trip. Hehe. Cos they always take very long to wake up. You shouldn't spend your time sleeping in holidays like this. I think I woke them up at around 1330. And we went to eat AH YI BAO YU. hah. It cost 68 ringgit for the set lunch. But it was quite a dissapointment. Like Guan said, we are like Meh Meh (lamb), being slaughtered.

Xiuli Cutting both vege and abalone


Rice in Lotus Leave

But when we are eating there, some people stare at us and commented that we are rich kids. They don't seemed happy about it, but we are not that young too. Me and Guan are the only ones that are still schooling now.

After lunch, Guan, Weiliang and Shuling went back hotel to rest, while I became the tour guide for XL and JX. We walked around and bought some stuff. All the stuff I wanted are last pieces, so I did not get anything. So sad right? But we managed to cover the whole area. We din go theme-park because JX chickened out. :P, Plus the rest of us are not interested, excluding Guan.


Theme Park


XL n JX eating ice-cream


At night, they are very much better, we went to have Kenny Rogers. The Kenny Rogers is not self-service, they have a booket menu. I remembered Singapore quarter chicken set comes with 2 sides, but in Malaysia it's 3 sides. The cheesy macroni there isn't as cheesy as Singapore's one. It could be a good thing, as Singapore's one is really thick cheese.

After that, we went casino again. Hah. JX and XL got bored soon after, just like me. Luck was not with Shuling and she lost quite a lot. And we called it a night when at around 12 plus. Shuling and Weiliang went to watch Pirates of Carribean - Dead's man chest, the rest of us went back hotel and sleep. After the movie, they went to surrender some money to the casino again. Haizz.

Last day of the trip, we gotta check out by 12. By 11, Weiliang hadn't woke up and once again, I wake them up. Oops. We went to eat KFC. The chicken is slightly nicer than Singapore's, but still as fatty. :( .

Weird Coleslaw with Raisins

After that, we rushed for the bus, but the bus got delayed from 1300 to 1500. Then we went starbucks to slack.


very sweet Weiliang and Shuling sharing HUGE hot cocoa

The lady at the agency kept telling us to wait for her to tick the bus number (because ticking the bus number would mean that they bus have arrived). When the lady finally ticked the bus number at around 1515, we went to the terminal to find the bus, but we couldn't find it. We thought it hasn't parked yet. After awhile, we went to the main road to find the bus. Who knows, the bus was actually leaving already. It almost left us stranded in Genting! Guan ran infront of the bus to stop the bus. And we managed to get on. FYI, this coach does not belong to Grassland, it is another agency called Five Star.


ZZZZZzzzZZZ
They are all sleeping on the bus. I wondered why I'm awake. I'm bored.. and I took foto of them sleeping. Hah

Everything is well, until we reached Singapore custom. The jam was quite bad. Other than that, all is well.

And this is my trip to GENTING.

Reasons why Guan is really unlucky.

1) His TV in Grassland coach is a spoilt one.
2) His bedsheet was stained with yellow stuff.
3) Our toilet don't have shampoo and body wash.
4) The first time, some big-breasted woman used her breast to touch his shoulder. (which he deemed to be super unlucky).
5) He fall ill throughout the trip, medication worked a bit on the last day.
6) He lost quite a lot to the casino.
7) One of the machines that shuffle the deck spoilt. The dealer have to shuffle it manually. I thought it was quite cool and told Guan to see. But, the very moment he finally turned over, the machine was fixed. The dealer used the machine to shuffle. He did not get to see the manual way.
