5 days til the start of camp...
everything is more or less settled, though the leaders in the 3 groups are getting busy prepping materials for the tabernacle and robes...
in the meantime, wat is supposed to be done this week:
1) print camp booklet. (yomay is compiling for yin chan to help us print)
2) prepare the sash/bandana for the 3 groups. slowly, but surely, i'm gonna write the names of each member of the grp on the cloth used for the bandana.
3) make sure the camp t-shirts are collected from the printing shop in malaysia.
4) ransack MYF cupboard for, hopefully, more materials than can be used for the tabernacle and high priest robes.
5) (personally) buy bag/backpack to put my barang barang for camp... i haf no bag!!
6) miscellaneous
i am not stressed...
i am not afraid of things messing up...
i am not stressed...
__________
met up with tongying, and chinmun and halim today to but alex' ROM present... din know that halim was back til this afternoon... though i was already expecting him to return within these couple of weeks... there's nothing to do in launie during summer...
after walking around in takashimaya B2, we've concluded that there's nothing we can buy him and soon-to-be wife that is useful now... in the end, bought a $100 gift voucher (tongying's idea) instead... they can go shopping for their own present...
throughout the whole nite, was nagged at every chance by mun mun abt how much weight i've lost... much worse than when sis does it, since every chance equates to almost every 15min interval or so...
believe me, i din want to be like this... initially (like months ago) when people commented, i was alittle happy to hear that i was losing some weight... but after many people pointing out (almost every week), and with me totally not knowing why it was happening, i get very very frustrated...
haf been eating more than usual now... even started to snack alittle, which i usually don't... my house never holds snacks, so i had to go out and buy chocolates...
anyway... with the coming of camp, that meant yanzhen is also coming back next week...
dear dear, i hope you're still coming back on the 6th and that ur plane dun delay this time... we haf alot to catch up on...

RR's PoT ranking
Birthday greetings: Happy birthday Yomay!!! you're finally one of us! the 1982s... heehee...
i can't control myself... i've got to get this down...
RR's Prince of Tennis character ranking
(after 16 books and 3rd episode of the anime)
1) Fuji Syuusuke (TENSAI!!) - fav character in PoT... though he'll never be no. 1 since that's Sanji's position... mwahaha... has a sadistic streak, loves weird drinks (courtesy of Inui), smiles way to much (sometimes sadistically) and is a tennis prodigy...
OMG(osh)!! my kind of character to love!! 2nd only to Tezuka (which i feel is only cos Fuji lets him) in the courts...
2) Tezuka Kunimitsu - Seigaku Gakuen Tennis captain... responsible, strict, bespectacled, handsome... No. 1 player in the team... (see above for reason why)
3) Momoshiro Takeshi - affectionally know as Momo-chan, he's the sempai (japanese 101: upperclassmen) you'll definitely love to have around... he's funny, caring (with the exception of Kaido), and always brings high spirits to everyone around him...
4) Echizen Ryoma - the main character... basically, he's juz arrogant... really really arrogant... but i guess he has a right to be seeing that he really does plays very well... i would say his skills is after Fuji's... not much to say... he's only in here cos, even though he knows he's good, he still stands up for his friends...
5) Kikumaru Eiji - 1 half of Seigaku's Golden Pair, i call him the stunt man of the team... always seem with a plaster across his right cheek, he can do all types of moves (which i'm sure will never happen in real life)... but like Momo-chan, he's also very easy-going and loves to hang around with Momo-chan and Ryoma...
6) Oishi Syuichirou - 2nd half of the Golden Pair, Oishi is vice-captain of the team and is technically the "nanny"... he looks out for everyone in the team...
7) Shishido Ryou - from rival school Hyoutei Gakuen, i love his attitude towards tennis... cocky in the beginning, he was forced to eat humble pie after being beaten by Tachibana Kippei in the Prefectural Tournament... though he doesn't has any special talent, through determination, he hones his skills enough to put him back on the regulars team...
8) Fuji Yuuta - Fuji Syuusuke's younger brother... it's hard to live under someone's shadow, and more so if your brother is a tennis tensai... went to St. Rudolph so that he can have the chance of meeting his bro on the courts... somehow, the Fuji siblings are still close, even with the rivalry between them...
no 9th or 10th ranking yet... no one in mind...
i can't control myself... i've got to get this down...

kopitiam invasion @ taman jurong S-11
ok... so i decided to juz write a simplified report... (or moo moo might say she's the only one who's ever doing this)
date: 18 nov, friday nite
weather: drizzling slightly
attendance: birdy, rr, moo moo (meow meow studying for exams)
surprisingly, rr was the 1st one to reach the S-11 bustop at taman jurong...
when called birdy, she was walking (!!) to taman jurong... not that it's not feasible, but because as i was saying, it was drizzling!! and she was walking without an umbrella somemore...
when rr sms-ed moo moo, she was also walking from her ah ma's house... another hero without an umbrella... this one, i somewhat can understand, since she stay so near...
so anyway, both of them reached without being very wet... birdy still very adventurous... wanted to read manga on the way, walking to taman jurong... how was she gonna accomplish that when it's pitch dark, i have no idea...
spent the entire invasion chit-chatting from moo moo's auntie problem; to birdy's troublesome USA associates problem; to our fav topic, manga & anime (of course)... friday's focus was on Rave, since moo moo was passing the last book to me...
much much much better ending than Shaman King, which was a total let out... never seen such a crappy ending in my entire manga-reading life... and i've read enough crappy endings before... like GSD... only that's not read but watched...
after S-11, we walked to the new multi-storey hawker so that moo moo can get some light food for her ah ma... not much shops still opened at 11pm, and she ended up getting satay (did u or ah ma ate that in the end?)
still drizzling lightly when we finally left the place... rr only one to be prepared with umbrella, although technically, she borrowed it from sis who always have it with her...
end of invasion...
The Aftermath
Posted by Moo Moo
Ermm.. After RR got into her 240, I walked Birdy home. Ok lahh not the full distance. She initially wanted me to go home and she 弱女子 wanna brave the dark streets and STILL SAY ME EASIER TARGET FOR AH NEH LOR!!
Anyway i distracted her and chatted all the way, mostly on MS lahh. Ahahha, and b4 she realised it, we've reached lakeside mrt. I din wanna cross the overhead bridge so.. we parted there lor.
I think RR and Meow Meow will scream at Birdy for wanted to walk the dark alleys home. 我是无辜的!! *feigns innocent*
*Passing the mic back to RR*
^_^.``
OH!!!
found new Palm PDA that is affordable! Palm Z22, priced at $228 seen in the Palm SG website... it's the all basic PDA with no added features...
well, not that i'll ever need them... mp3? i haf my creative Muvo2... camera and video function? my VS2 has that too... bluetooth?? erm, do i even know people who use that often??
the only thing that i might think is a minus point is there's no expansion slot... but other than that, it's a great bargain... *rubs hands* i can't wait to buy it after my yr-end bonus...

why 李莫愁??
very very very long ago, roar roar was known to be the fiercest female around in JSS class 4-2... technically, she still has her fierce streak in her... just that it doesn't come out that often now...
so during the time, there was a 神雕峡侣 craze going on... and lot of people in our class got at least one nickname (i think derry has like 2 nicks or something) from the book...
when it came to the four of us, i think birdy was the first one to be "nicknamed"... hence from there, we decided to use the four people from 古墓派...
and why RR got the nick 李莫愁... isn't it obivous?? look at me and u can definitely picture me as 李莫愁 liao... ahehehehe...
i always remember her 冰魄银针, even if it's not as good as 小龙女's 玉蜂针... plus her whip... never forget her whip...

Animals United Chronicles
THE LONG-AWAITED HISTORY OF ANIMALS UNITED (AU) IS FINALLY HERE!
AFULL BITS AND PIECES OF THE NICK-NAMING OF THE MEMBERS AND THE FORMATION OF THE GROUP (Which was basically the same group but a title change)!
I shall do it chronologically, beginning with the Birdy.
Birdy
Ahh the Bird.. It started with BirdBrain (Moo Moo definition: person with the pea-sized brain of a bird; very blur person), which everyone started calling her since JSS times (b4 dat I dunno). Even into poly and now, she's still stuck with the "bird" name.
Armed with a formidable skill, she can inter-switch between personalities, from the extinct DoDos, to the sneezing chickens; from the cartoon in-proportionately big-headed yellow canary, to the many kinds of fly-able birds; from a night owl who worked 100+ hrs continuously, to a hungry bird (Early birds ate up all the worms so she always hungry). (Fwahh! Even 孙悟空 also 甘拜下风.) Being a scatter-brain, she had lost xx wallets and xx handphones to-date (Birdy pls replace the xx with actual figures).
Other alias of the Bird includes Ah Bird (more amiable), Birdy (act cute version), BB (her short-form), 那只鸟 (when we’re irritated, HAHA!), Cheep Cheep (when Birdy talks, this is the sound she made).
古墓派 Rank: 小龙女 (More like 小聋女 bcos most often then not, calls to her will end up with the irritating voice message zah bor)
Moo Moo
Then came the cow aka the author (Moo??). This started in 2004, in one of the MSN conversations with Meow Meow. According to Meow Meow, talking to her is like playing piano to a cow (对牛弹琴). So she became Moo Moo!~ (Play piano of cos no use lah, bcos Moo Moo is a drummer! ) Moo Moo had evolved from being 小牛津 to Meow Meow’s 牛 (做牛做马，任劳任怨) to being a mad cow. (Sounds more like a downgrade)
The kids of the faction, Moo Moo and Birdy often have irrational ideas/actions/speech which the elderlys (Yes who else but the 2 others below. Kekkekekeke) cracked their brains to comprehend. With grammatically-challenged English (Pls ignore all the grammatical/vocab/spelling errors thru’ out the chronicles) and trying-to-be-chim-but-not-chim Mandarin, Moo Moo volunteered (I volunteered hor??) to be the historian of AU and embarks on this tedious task of recalling the history. She is a worm and goldfish in disguise (worm being a nuahster <- one of Meow Meow’s made up nicks for me; goldfish for having 3 sec memory). She loves sobbing at corners whenever the other animals bully her. (So 可怜没人爱.)
Other alias of Moo Moo includes That Cow, 那只牛.
古墓派 Rank: 孙婆婆 (Bcos she very 照顾 the “deaf” zah bor on top, kind *puke*, blah blah blah, but more like there’s no one else in 古墓派 liao)
Meow Meow
Meow Meow revealed her natural instinct after responding to Roar Roar’s coo-ing but not our numerous calls. (RR: “Here kitty kitty~~” Meow Meow: “Meowwwwww~~~”) After that, she grabs at every opportunity to meow, clings onto every EXPENSIVE fish that was dangled. (Moo Moo tried dangling guppies but Meow Meow bo hiew)
Being Moo Moo’s master, Meow Meow had kicked, scratched, clawed, etc etc etc, Moo Moo. The most classic of all torture, was tying Moo Moo to mango tree (or was it durian?), then Moo Moo activating her phase shift and whatever, and breaks free of the rope, then Meow Meow chases Moo Moo down (横行霸道-ly, 100% hunts down target even if the target vanished), then ties Moo Moo again to the tree with STAINLESS STEEL SUPER STRONG METAL ROPE, and starts throwing mangoes, durians, whatever throwable, at Moo Moo.
Meow Meow has a habit of dousing her computers with pesticides and insecticides, intending to kill the bugs she couldn’t catch and she’s actually a crab cosplaying a cat if nobody had already discovered by now.
Other alias of Meow Meow… Got meh??
古墓派 Rank: 林朝英 (I think it was bcos of the same surname)
Roar Roar (RR)
Since there’s already 3 people in 古墓派 with animal identities, the last one shouldn’t be left out. The historian could not remember how exactly the lion came abt (told u I goldfish liao). Did she start roaring suddenly, or did she jus put on a Lion King costume and join the party?? She chose to be a lion instead of a tiger (母老虎), although both also roar.
Maybe it was bcos she is a hardcore carnivore that gave her the status of the top members of the cat family. Maybe it was due to the fact that she LOOKS fierce. Maybe.. Maybe…
She’s a mystery~
But this QUEEN OF THE CROP of lioness had an ambition, to be a pig. Eat and sleep, eat and sleep, repeat procedure. If one day an oversized pig with lion fur sticking out was to be found sleeping in a sty, please do not panic. It’s jus RR masquerading as an Oink Oink.
Other alias of Roar Roar… Roar Roar Roar (ask Birdy), Roar3 Roar3 (ask Birdy), RR (short form)
古墓派 Rank: 李莫愁 (Ahhh………… Explain urself pls.. I dunno!)

confirmation letter
4 months after my supposed confirmation date (17 jul 05), i've finally finally gotten my confirmation letter from the HR... and my medical benefit card...
that's after i had to pester them; first, the lab secretary to call them up; second, when Nataline went up to the dept to hand in her documents...
talk about efficiency...
[-_-.]
now there's some problem with collecting back my medical claims... grrr... when they have to deduct money from us, they do it within the month, but it takes forever for us to get back our claims from them...

Flightplan??
extracted from daily emails between the AU...
Monday, 14/11/05, email from birdy... (with commentary by Roar Roar)
hiya... i just went to catch a show yesterday (aka: Sunday)... (- -")
i wanted to watch the show of the mother losing her daughter on the plane (she was of course referring to flightplan)... the one meow meow watched...
when i reached the cinema... i forgot the title of the show... (flightplan, flightplan!)
"hmm... if i saw the title i should be able to figure out which show it is..." (should be? should be?!!)
and ta-da... i went to buy tix for "sky high"... thinking that "plane mah... and she lost her daughter on the plane in the sky... so should be sky high...." (can i even say it was a logical reasoning??)
Then i entered the theatre room... and saw quite a number of kids in the theatre...
"eh? how come nowadays parents bring their kids watch this kinda show... hai~ the world is changing xia..."
and i just ignored these warning signs... happily munching on my nachos...
The lights dimmed... the introduction of the production company flashed on the screen "WALT DISNESY"... (hello! u even spelt DISNEY wrongly!!)
i tot, "oh, i didn't know walt disney produced these kinda of thriller movies..."
Starting of the show... *picture of 2 superheros... flying woman... super strong man...*
"huh?" (now is the time for her to be blinking her eyes rapidly)
in a state of shock.... i stare at my kor-kor (the boyfren)... "erm...watch show are we watching? how come got heros one?"
BF: "you wanted to watch sky high right?"
birdy: "i tot its the thriller show of the kidnap of the daughter on the plane..."
*stares blankly at each other...* (more rapid eye blinking, this time, at each other)
then we just sat thru the "interesting" and full of moral ethics show (social studies??) with the kids ard us, laughing... not at the show... but laughing that we are watching that show...
The show is not bad... erm... full of moral ethics... suitable for all ages.... no blood-shed... can just sit back and relax....
the bad guy is really the typical bad guy if spider-man, super-man... those who wear a gold mask and space suit... flying ard kind.... (dun ask, i haf no idea wat to make of this sentence either)
pretty enjoyable show.... <- no choice... spend $9.00 already... die die must enjoy it.... (wahahaha)
conclusion: this is something only birdy can achieve...
at least the last time when moo moo and i went to watch Initial D the movie, we were given wrong showtime by the GV person, but we still managed to find empty seats to watch the show...
advise to birdy: even if u dunno the movie title, at least try to find some posters to confirm wat u're watching...
Gashapon News: ahahaha... not really news... but my papa has made the stands for me! yeah!! thinking abt how i'm gonna rearrange my gashapons... heehee... moo moo... u wan?? can ask my dad to make... charge u small fee... kekeke...

Princess Diaries
i think it's an after-effect... after reading 3 books of the Princess Diaries series, now, i have a tendency to want to write like Mia Thermopolis... but i'm gonna have to refrain from that, or at least try to...
as i was going through the 3 books, it made me remember the time when i used to write diaries when i was in primary and secondary school... i still haf them with me... something to laugh at if i ever bring them out to read...
yomay, thanks for lending them to me... looking forward to the 4th book, even though u said it's not as good as the other 3...
checking out the new releases at The Anime House and La Tendo (i haven't gone there for more than 1mth, for fear of buying more stuff when i'm obivously poor), and TAH has just shipped in 2006 organizers and refills... as much as i'm super super tempted to get them, especially since they also haf the One Piece edition, the more pressing issue at hand is...
i need to get a new PDA...
i really do... lately, more than ever... especially with all the driving lessons and more and more hectic schedule due to the fact that camp and Christmas is around the corner, i need PDA that doesn't die on me cos the stupid battery is never fully charged no matter how long i charge it...
and apparently, my memory, is juz slightly better than that of a goldfish... fyi, goldfishes only has like a 3-sec memory, not that they ever haf a need for a longer memory since their only job is juz to swim around the tank all day...
my thoughts are super random and i almost always forgets them like 10min later... it gets bad when i know they're important to me now, especially if it involves camp or something... ugghh...
think i'm gonna spend a portion of my bonus at the end of the yr to buying a new PDA... having a One Piece organizer is tempting, but in the long run, a PDA is more practical... i'm gonna look through yahoo auctions for cheaper ones...
things to look forward to this week:
1) Just like Heaven - with meow meow on wed... coincidently, my sis & JM are going for Harry Potter, same day, same time, same place...
2) friday kopitiam invasion... no place yet though...
3) Linda Ho's wedding on sat...

Ahh.. I'm trying to recall as much as possible k. Its like 10 days ago thing. Hmmmmmm..................
The 2nd KopiTiam Invasion in the same week, this time for convenience of Meow Meow & Birdy (who din make it), it was across my blk. Me, who was on leave, nuahed the entire day b4 walking down to find them + buying a big bag of potato chips which I have yet to start eating. Meow Meow came looking like a zombie after her studying in NTU.
......................

*thinking*
*wasting blog space*
*thinking*
Ah.. This was the day Birdy started her marathon camping in office. Where got ppl work 100+ hrs <- abt 5 days from friday till wed i think, OVERNITES IN OFFICE!! Might as well go to work at night rite.
Faster go look for other jobs leh.. U need time to send resumes, time for the prospective companies to review the resumes, time for interviews, time for them to confirm, time for u do quit and do handovers. Totals up to more than 1 mth, 2 maybe. By the time u settle ur server problem, u shld be ready for ur next job already mahh.. the shorter u stay at the present company the better lehh.. who noes when the server will buang again..

Egao no Hosoku
juz finished the 1st episode of Egao no Hosoku, 笑颜の法则, starring Takeuchi Yuko (竹内结子) and Abe Hiroshi (阿部宽)...
as expected from Abe-san, it's another funny j-drama that i'm sure will keep me laughing throughout... besides my all-time fav Kimura Takuya (木村拓哉), he's the next other person that will keep me watching his shows...
plus, i think he's also good-looking... very man... hahaha...
thank you lydia's fren... for lending it to me... ^_^.``

of Koyasu-sama, anime and standby duty...
haf i ever mention how much i love Koyasu Takehito's voice...
watching the latest episodes (19 & 20) of Initial D last night and was thinking once more abt how fitting Koyasu-sama is as the seiyuu (voice actor) for Ryosuke... not only does he has the sexiest voice ever, he can also do comical roles... the versatility of this guy... i can juz swoon upon hearing his voice...
FYI, Koyasu-sama has voiced many many popular characters including; Hotohori-sama (Fushigi Yuugi), Zechs (Gundam Wing), Ryosuke (Initial D), Fraga/Neo (GS/GSD), Hanagata (SMJ) and Faust (Shaman King)...
i think it's time i come up with my top 10 list of favorite seiyuu... and i'm the only person who can do that here... cos, basically, no one else in animals-united notices, and/or even bothers abt the people behind the characters... haiz... wasted lah...
realized there's lesser anime to be watching out for these past few weeks... like all the interesting ones are either,
1) still showing... aka One Piece, Bleach, Initial D, Naruto, etc...
2) ended... aka Tsubasa, GSD (crappy ending), Full Metal Panic TSR, Ah My Goddess (AMG), etc...
3) going to show but dunno when... AMG (2nd season), Tsubasa (2nd season), XXXholics...
which leaves me with not alot of anime to download every week... hmm... moo moo feels the same way too... it's juz weird that we're not waiting for the latest torrents to be released every week...
budden again, it's not as if i've already finished watching the ones i have with me... *sheepish* maybe i should juz concentrate on finishing those 1st... =p
bad thing that happened to me today...
*sighs* activated for standby duty because the afternoon shift person was sick... if it was some other day when i didn't have anything planned, i wouldn't have been so sad... but i had driving lesson at 3.30pm!!
AARRGGHHH!!!
had to cancel my lesson... AND still pay for 1hr's lesson fee cos i informed him in less than 36hrs and it's virtually impossible to get someone to take my slot on short notice... ~_~.``
that's my $26 down the bukit gombak drain... the on-call allowance can juz barely pay for my wasted 1.5hrs of precious driving.... *sobs sobs*

Last Min Kopitiam Invasion & An Animated Bird
Hehh.. RR i saw ur draft. I was wondering y 2 person can blog n no one toks abt the kopitiam invasion. Nvm I shall do it.
Look at the time. I woke up at 7.30 not knowing wat to do. What the F i wake up so early for when i slept at 2+++ the night before. Couldnt get back to sleep after dat so.. MS!!~~~
Ended work SUPER late yesterday due to a stupid SAP server lag. Of all days lag at MONTH END! [>.<]q The lag started at 4++ when I was 3 pages into my 7 pages/100++ permits list. Still tolerable, abt 30 sec wait per function pressed. Chatted with Meow Meow and Birdy on MSN, where 3/4 of the time, Birdy is MS-ing. Imagine! MS-ING DURING OFFICE HRS IN OFFICE LOR.. kaoz. The 30 sec became 1 min. Then it became so bad that I had to stare [@.@] at the screen for 2 min for one transaction, 3 min to save it, and bo bah geh will be saved (In this case, repeat from step 1, wait 2 min, then 3 min, until confirmed saved).
Slowly, the office emptied out. One-by-one, they left, not without throwing a line at me.
"Wah still dun wanna go back arh?"
"Wah so hardworking arh?"
"Go back go back!~ Boss not in~"
"Not going back?"
etc, etc, etc.
My answer would be... "CANNOT GO BACK ARHH!!~~~ [T.T]"
At 6.45, I'm the only one left in office, facing a lights-out engineering dept. Dun dare to go toilet bcos.. SCARY LAHHH!!!~~ By dat time the system is recovering but still, I'm only on my 4th page. Chiong thru all the permits till 7++, opened up my excel file to update the new permits. A lot of alterations as we have 3 new product codes <- which made me super irritated bcos 3 new products, I have to create 10+++ additional licenses.
All tis while, the small boy (he's older than me by one mth lah) in the terminal was waiting for his price (not by me, another dept). So I complained to him lahh, wat stupid system lah, wat stupid dept doing the pricing lah, wat stupid fishtank on his desk lah. Blah blah blah. We sitting on the same boat.. Ahhahaa.. After everything, he offered me a cab ride out. Claimable anyway since he doing OT.
Anyway, I met up with Birdy at JP. She looks super tired when she reached so I asked her y so sianz lah, since she was MS-ing in office!! Then she started her super animated story. From 1st floor to the food court at 3rd floor. The version dat Meow Meow and RR saw later is already quite toned down liao. Her facial expression really made me laff like mad. (How come she angry then still so funny one I oso dun understand..)
Well, advice to Birdy: Adults ARE UNREASONABLE at times (My aunt has it more than others, urs small case..), we'll grow up to be like dat in time to come. So... WE MUST LEARN NOT TO BE LIKE DAT!!~~
We had a super long dinner, trading unreasonable stories, then topic switched to MS. Ahahhahha.. We left JP at 9.50pm.
Met up again at 11pm (We really cannot get enuff of each other.. I dunno y.. I'm meeting her later again somemore..). Kopitiam at Jurong West Ave 1 Blk 502. There we met up with a sore throat, bug-plagued, pale looking Meow Meow and a super heng RR.
RR!! I jus remembered.. U din pass me ur FTT book!!!
Back to the story, Birdy and me were pushed to order (as usual, those bullies.. kekekke). We, as usual, dunno wat to buy, keep walking back to the seats to ask them. Food arrived, one tissue prata, one cage of haa gao, one plate of fried dumpling, 2 teh bings, 1 kopi + a big bottle of Birdy's mum's brand herbal tea.
Speaking of the herbal tea. Meow Meow, she told me she wanted to bring to u while we were MSNing. She wans me to shhh somemore.. ahhahaha.. Budden.. AUNTY ARHH~~~ I NO NEED!!~~ ehhehehhe.. My mum always brew these herbal tea stuff whenever one of us is down with sore throat or wat (most commonly my bro), and the rest of us oso have to drink. So no need no need... hehhehhehehhe...
Birdy, Meow Meow dedicated this post to u.. Meowww~~~
Ok lah.. enuff of blogging, my stomach a bit pain pain, I go 蹲 toilet liao..

back from genting
i'm back from genting!! surprisingly, we weren't as bored as we thought we might be, given that we had to spend the entire weekend there... summary below... timing are approximates...
28/10
9pm - met at golden mile plaza to take the 10pm bus up to genting... din really sleep alot, cos the air-con was like trying to freeze all of us even before the weather in genting could... ended up having a runny nose even though i did take clarinase before i attempted to sleep...
29/10
5.30am - reached genting... walked from the bus terminal at First World hotel to Genting hotel where we were staying... went to joreen's parents room to wash up since they practically spend all the time in the casino... couldn't check-in to our own room until after 12pm...
6.30am - napped for abt 1hr before hitting the breakfast buffet...
10am - after breakfast, went to check out the casino, but only played the jackpot machine since there's nothing much that interest us... spent probably, the most, 2hrs there...
12pm - went back to check-in to our room... took turns bathing... while waiting for our turns, napped some more...
2pm - went to the outdoor themepark after that... shannie and i managed to psycho joreen and junli to take the small roller-coaster with us (the 2 of them are terrified of thriller rides), but din get them to take the really scary Top Gun (where we're lifted to the top of a high tower and dropped down)...
4.30pm - went to check out movie times at the First World cinema... intending to catch midnight show...
6pm - went back to the hotel room to wash up for dinner... while waiting for our turns, napped some more...
7pm - had a nice dinner with joreen's parents and her 2 aunties at a chinese restuarant... thanks to them for treating us... ^_^.``
8.30pm - went back to First World to shop... found out that Vincci was having sale when we were checking out the movies... shannie bought ALOT of shoes!! heehee... shannie, i shall not expose how many u bought...
but i'm sad! cos i only managed to buy 1 pair even though i saw alot that i liked... it's not good being a size 7 in malaysia... i lost count of the number of times the salesperson said they dun haf a size 7...
10pm - bought tickets for andy lau's latest movie... 1.15am show... still had alot of time after shopping, so had drinks and cake at coffee bean...
30/10
12am - still had time before the show started... ran out of things to do at First World... so went back to the hotel room to put our stuff, or rather shannie's stuff... waiting for time to pass, napped abit more...
1am - walked back to First World for the movie... though half-expecting all of us to sleep in the theatre, we managed to watch through the show, and even cry alittle at the sad ending... according to joreen, shannie started crying 10min into the movie...
3am - finally, went to bed...
9am - woke up... by the time we went down for breakfast, it was already past 10am... and we had to wait another 20min before we managed to get a table at the dim sum restuarant... dim sum wasn't fantastic, but it was the only time i could eat pork throughout the whole trip...
1pm - checked out of the hotel... another round of coffee at coffee bean before heading to the bus terminal for our 2.30pm bus... this time, managed to sleep throughout the whole bus journey...
reached sg at 8.15pm... reached home at 9.30pm...
----------------------------------------------------
wat i learned from the trip...
1) rem to bring a thicker jacket, or better yet a nose mask, when taking night buses...
2) bring more clarinase... 3 tablets is definitely not enough... esp if nobody else brings...
3) really, everyone goes crazy when they're sleep-deprived...
4) shannie cries more than i do... (can imagine how bad she is with all her korean dramas)
5) junli din open her eyes the entire time she was taking the roller-coaster ride... where's the thrill?!
6) whenever we're in the hotel room, we'll always be napping...
7) Vision 4 (the hotel channel) is only has 1 movie a day... on sat, it was spiderman... the scary part was, every time we switched the tv on, we were always always at the same scene...
but all in all, it was a fun trip... it's short, but fun... next yr, we should plan for a longer one... maybe bangkok or something... heehee...

i wanna thank birdy for brewing herbal tea for me today after i told her i got a bad sore throat. i am so touched.... after not being able to talk properly so many days, finally got a kind soul make herbal tea for me...
and wat did i do to get this silly sore throat a few days before exams? hmmm... i stayed over in school for two nites to complete my web tech project... quite a stressful two nites indeed... so stress to the extend that i lack of sleep and got eye infection....
had to ask my fren to drive me home 3am in the morning to get my glasses so that i can continue to work on the project...and the very next day after the project due, i cannot talk liao....

and wat did i do to get this silly sore throat a few days before exams? hmmm... i stayed over in school for two nites to complete my web tech project... quite a stressful two nites indeed... so stress to the extend that i lack of sleep and got eye infection....
