Nyeah! Ok i have like 1hr 50mins to burn before OC season 2 goes on air, so therefore i shall blog about the trip to Kuala Lumpur. To sum it all up, the trip was ok, it would be much more fun if we had more time to burn there. Places like HardRock and Petaling Street which my single aunt and I had planned to sneak out to in the middle of the night had to be forgone due to time constraints. BAH!
So lets all flash back to the 24th of March 2005..
By 6pm, my family and i haf cramped ourselves into the seven seater car together with my grannies and my single aunt. We were to meet the other 2 families over at Larkin, as cramming 16 people in a 7 seater car would spell traffic-police suicide.
The long jam that we expected due to the Good Friday holiday was actually non-existant, and we managed to breeze through the customs in aruund an hour, where we reached Larkin greeted by the hustle-bustle of other commuters as well as the screaming and giggling of my young cousins.
Since it was 8pm, we had an hour to burn before boarding the bus at 9pm. The 16 of us decided to just sit around at the coffeeshop on the second floor. After filling ourselves full to the brim, we then boarded the 4hr Kuala Lumpur-bound bus journey.
Reaching Hotel Istana at 2am was horrible, as there were no rooms for us to check in to. Luckily, my uncles and aunts manage to talk their way into getting just 1 room for the 16 of us to wait in before we officially check in at 12. As we settled into the tinee winee room, the noise of stomachs grumbling filled the air, therefore my brother, father and i decided to cross over the other side of the hotel to the 7-11 and get food for everyone.
Which reminds me, the roads in KL confuse me so. You know in Singapore, when we have 2 sides of a road, each side goes different directions right? So as i crossed the first side, i looked to my right to ensure car clearance. Seeing the last one zoom by, i crossed the road. When i reached the middle partition, i looked on my left, saw no cars, and thus crossed the road. A second later i heard lound hongings and managed to sprint my way to safety from the car which was coming from my right. Ahk! Almost died there.
So anyway, it was great walking around at 2am in the morning. Mak Nyahs (Bapoks) greeted us at 7-11 with not-so-pretty faces as well as deep DEEP voices. Erk! And we saw a guy crouching behind a pillar doing god-knows-what for quite a long time. So after getting the foodstuffs, we got back to the room, stuffed ourselves silly, fell asleep till around 10, and checked in into our respective rooms.
As i still wanted to catch some rest since i was having slight fever and flu, i searched around the hotel to find the warmest spot - the whole room was far too cold for comfort. Finally i found a spot to sleep in - the cupboard. aahaha. Sumpah i slept there. So i slept there for a good 2hrs, then changed and headed to Berjaya Theme Park. Yay!
I almost died when i saw the indoor roller coaster. For your information, ive NEVER, i repeat, NEVER taken any roller coaster rides my whole life. Well, until that day, that is. hyuk hyuk. I somehow managed to overcome my fear (nyeah. more like protecting my ego cuz my aunt kept teasing me) and got aboard it. Not so bad lah. Wasnt that scary actually. Maybe because i was closing my eyes everytime i see a bend or a twirl. kahkahkah!
My favouritest part of the theme park was the bumper cars! haha. It was fun lah banging into people and seeing them bounce of their chairs and looking at me in a "YOU JAGA! I'LL GET YOU BACK" look. haha. Call me sadist. whatever. i LOVE bumper cars. Queued up like 5 to 6 times. mwahaha.
So after walking around the shopping mall, we decided to give KLCC a visit. So we queued up at the taxi stand, waiting for 20mins but to no avail. Then suddenly this red taxi came in, wah you should see the grins plastered on our faces. But NOOOO. This f*king uniform-wearing girl rushed in from God-knows-where and stopped the cab. My aunt, brother and I were like shouting and shouting at her cuz we were already so tired, but she just looked at us and jumped into the cab. What the hell?! No decency AT ALL. As the cab went pass us, she covered her face with her bag, which was sad, cuz she missed the middlefinger pointing my brother and i did. BAH!
So we gave up waiting, and boarded the monorail. We got off a few stops later, and had to walk a faaar faaaar distance to change to the other line, the station Dang Wangi. I like the MRT we boarded. The whole MRT was decorated from top to bottom with Nokia advertisements. Nice blood red color. Sweet. Even the announcements had the Nokia ringtone before it. kahkahkah.
And thus we reached KLCC, the scent of Rotiboy engulfing our senses. kahkahkah. walked around, but the place was too high-end prices for mom and dad, so the only thing we bought there was food and Rotiboy. yum yum! the place is very beautiful, though.
The next morning, we headed to Little India to have our breakfast. I wonder why the Nasi Ayams there are named "Nasi Ayam Singapore", when in fact, the taste vary by alot! So after finishing our food and shopping around for a while, especially at the wholesale center Mydin, we headed to Sunway Lagoon, much to the joy of the kids (me included. kahkahkah).
Sadly, it was pouring like chicken nuggets when we got there, so we decided to hang out at the novelty shop. I wonder why they were selling Australian souvienies in a Malaysian Souvenier shop. So weird. haha. So we took a million pics with koala bears and snakes and cowboy hats and mat-ified shades. It was fun fun fun!
Half an hour later, it was still slighly drizzling. The young ones were itching to jump into the pool; after all, we're all gonna get wet sooner or later, so what difference does a lil rain make? hyuk hyuk! The first hour or so were spent frolicking around the lazy pool and the wave pool with mom and aunt, but the hours that followed suit were spent going down tubes and slides and screaming like nutters. FUN! If only Singapore has places like this. Bah!
That day was also my mom's birthday. However, the whole group had planned not to wish her and make it seem as if we had forgotten. But later at night, my aunt and I sneaked to a cake shop and bought this huuuge blackforest cake and surprised her with it. We crammed into grannies' room, sang birthday songs, stuffed ourselves silly then headed back to our rooms to plonk into bed straight away.
The next day i complained to my uncle that KLCC and Berjaya Times Square had items that were to high-priced for my puny pockets, so he brought us all to Sungai Wang, where the shoes there were screaming "BARGAIN!" "CHEAP!" and the shop attendants were yelling "CUTIE!" "HOTTIE!". wahahahaha. It was fun running around with my brother comparing shoes and prices. I finally got a black-pink Vans, while him, a brown-beige DC.
We later rushed back to the hotel to pack up, checked out, grabbed a cab, and rushed our way to the station to take the bus home. If only we had more time. Nyeaaaaahhh! I feel like going there again perhaps with my friends or with my cousin Anz, the next time with more cash and yes, more time there... The end!
Gosh i took like more then an hour typing all that. kahkahkah! Miss blogging alot lah. And bloghopping. Sorry ive not visited your blogs for the longestest time, and that ive not yet replied to tags. Really apologise. Been too busy readapting to JC life, though i say i still feel like im in the honeymooning period. Like for example, ponning school today. wakaakka!
I think 30% of the school did not attend school today, due to the fact that the programme lined up for us consisted of talks and nothing but talks from morning all the way till 1pm. Wat the hell? Who in the right mind would want to go through that amount of torture? The butt cramps, the drooping eyes. Bah! So i went out with the other half. haha. What do you expect?
The Eye 10 is not as scary as i thought it would be. The beginning seemed promising, but i was laughing out loud throughout most of the movie. haha. it was more of a comedy! haaha. but then again, i slept through Boogeyman, so perhaps my thoughts may differ from yours. haha.
Have i mentioned im so addicted to gerhana ska cinta and my chemical romance? nyeaaaah. Keep blasting them 24-7. (pirated cd from m'sia, what else? heheheh.)
Soooo. yeah. I guess that would be all. My fingers are numb and my arms are tired and im yet to bloghop. I shall reply to tags as soon as i have another hour free k? I dont know when that will be though. My sincerest apologies. Keep tagging ya.
