I love rollercoaster

Genting was so much fun! Firstly, i haven't been there for ages, the last time i went there was 10 years ago.Then, going there was a last minute decision, i received a message from a friend (Why Kit) in the middle of the night, 10.30pm asking me to join them to Genting the next morning. I was only given 30minutes to make a decision, so i asked my mom and she said ''go la''. Haha...so I went


It was weird at first because I didn't know any of them, well I just knew their names,we hardly talk in school. So, it was a bit awkward at first but gradually, we clicked.

I didn't get enough sleep that night because I was excited (hey, I haven't been there for 10 years okay!). Then during the bus trip, I really wanted to vomit (side effect from not enough sleep) but thank god for the guys who chit chatted non stop during the whole journey (namely Keng Hoo and Win Hong). Dizziness replaced by laughter :)


There were 16 of us, with only 4 girls, all crammed into a two rooms apartment which was meant for 4 people. So, I can't imagine how the guys could crammed into a room. But they didn't sleep, they went out to...I dunno where, I was too worn out to give a shit on that.


We were eventually splitted into 2 groups because a huge group will make everything slower. It was really cold and foggy but a good change from the hot and humid KL.
Anyway, we played so many things, Corkscrew, Solero Shot, etc etc...Can't remember the names..
But the one I couldn't forget was the swinging thingy (pardon me, I can't remember, the names are all too funny). It was an enjoyable, and soothing swing. Fun for the sake of having the wind brush through your skin..Feels nice. But sadly, I sat with a bunch of monkeys from Klang High School. The guys were deliberately screaming in unison on purpose. I virtually had to cover my ears with my hands. Imagine all the uncles and aunties looking at us...Man, the guys can really scream especially Phor Xiang, they screamed from the start till the very end! Even better than the girls, I tell u...


We played until the theme park was closed, 10.30pm. Then we went Starbucks to mamak. The guys can really talk, no joke....they can talk for hours but it was fun chatting with them because they are a bunch of really crazy and funny people. Gossiping for them is a must! :P

I was only disappointed in the food. Expensive, tasteless, and service like shit. We went to a Chinese restaurant and ordered their 'specialty' and guess what? Maggie mee and we paid $12 for a bowl of Maggi.What nonsense...special my ass.

It was raining the next day when we were leaving for KL. The theme park was closed, I think. Thank god it was clear when we went there.

All in all, the trip was worth everything (well, minus the food lar). I enjoyed myself, and I finally got to meet many new high schoolians. I've always thought that they were a bunch of people who would always keep to themselves, refusing to talk to anyone but their own clan but I was wrong. They were friendly, out going, daring, funny and just plain fun to be with!

I love this holiday!

cool view

I took this on the way back to Shah Alam from Cameron. The little hut was surrounded by fog and it was BEAUTIFUL

Fun, fun, fun!

Cameron Highland wasn’t as bad as some people might say. I went there on the 22nd Oct, Tuesday with my classmates to catch insects for our biology assignment i.e. preserving insects using chloroform and formalin. We were excited during the first hour of ride there, busily chatting and singing to the radio (not to mention eating!!) but gradually, we fell asleep as most of us woke up early, around 3 am so that we could reach Cameron just in time for breakfast!

Indeed, we really got there around 9 am and it was drizzling. Well, truth be told, it was raining the WHOLE DAY!

Somehow, when we reach there, some of us got sore eyes while some felt dizzy. We felt that way right until afternoon. It wasn’t until one of my friend noticed her backpack was wet that we realized we had been intoxicated by chloroform.
What a way to start our ‘quest’ of finding those damn insects!

Anyway, we had so much fun that we looked like vacationing rather than doing assignment. Well, to start things off, we ‘stole’ strawberries on the way to our apartment. Cameron has many strawberry farms offering tourists to self-pluck strawberries and one of those many farms were really, really unlucky that day! We were supposed to pluck strawberries and fill them into a container which they provide at a cost of Rm15. But being an adventurous and hungry-for-strawberries group of teenagers, we couldn’t resist not eating them!! We had this ‘tactic’ to distract the workers from catching us eating strawberries where one of us would pretend to ask him many questions while the rest would eat them mercilessly! Honestly, each of us ate 30-40 strawberries and there were 7 of us! And all we paid was Rm15 in total! Wahaha…worth every cents!

We did not catch many insects on the first day as it was raining. Time was running out, we only booked the apartment for a night. We then planned to buy them from the butterfly farm. Shockingly, one butterfly costs Rm80-100 ++ and we need 5 of them. Out of desperation to bring back butterflies, each of us paid Rm3 and went into the farm to steal them!! Yeap, we stole 10++ butterflies! Haha..don’t ask me how but we just did it!

The apartment that we stayed in was really cozy and most importantly, cheap. 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms equip with Astro, Kitchen utensils and all the necessary stuff for Rm220.

Not bad eh? I might go there again next year! Hahaha

Addicted to Dota!

Yeah, I’m so addicted to Dota. Seriously. I spent at least 3 hours of playing Dota almost everyday. Well, at least now I’m a little sick of it. But I still play three or four times a week. See, that’s why I said I hate holidays. They’ll make u an addict! Lol!

November's Chopin

Due to ‘popular’ demand, I shall write a review about Jay Chou’s latest album, November’s Chopin. Haha…well, only one (Xiang Wei) requested it.
Anyhow, because I’m a Jay’s fan, I’m writing this without any obligation. There are ONLY 11 tracks in this album and only a few are really nice. The rest of the songs mainly sound the same as his previous album. Nothing much to boast about this album, his style is still the same, the pronunciations is still terrible and the lyrics are still philosophical. But as always, there are the good ones as well. I especially like Shan Hu Hai, a duet with Lara from Nan Quan Mama and also Hei Se Mao Yi. Both are slow songs which explain why I like them (his rap songs are hard to follow especially hard for pin yin readers like me!). Another song to take note is Fa Ru Xue which is a mixture of both traditional and modern melody, though the only thing I dislike about this song is that he sings with Jolin Chai’s style…you know, the terrible pronunciations topped with a hard-to-describe attitude. As for the rest of the album, well, I can’t tell you everything, can’t I? Lol..if you want to know the rest of the songs, go get one for yourself! In short, the album is worth every penny!

The Exorcism of Emily Rose

The exorcism of Emily Rose is a MUST watch! It’s meaningful, real and scary. Considering that I’m a big time movie critic, you gotta believe me when I say it’s a nice show.

The cinema was full house and the air-cond is not too cold, just perfect for a midnight show. Well, aside from this stupid bitch who sat beside me that talked non-stop throughout the whole 2 ½ hours, everything was fine. Okay, the movie started off with er…darn I can’t remember because I kept starring at that stupid bitch, trying to make her shut her lily-ass mouth off.

Anyhow, the whole show is basically about this girl, Emily Rose, a devout catholic who was possessed by 6 demons, among them, Lucifer, the Satan’s son. A priest tried to help her to chase away all the demons through exorcism, of course, but to no avail as she was on a drug that interfere the brain activity to respond to the exorcism. The drug was given to her by her doctors as they diagnosed or rather, misdiagnosed her with schizophrenia. In the end, she died; the priest could not help her. She died, leaving a letter to the priest, telling him she knew why she was possessed. In the letter, she said, the night before she died, she saw someone calling her name, it was Virgin Mary. She asked Her why does god let her suffer. Virgin Mary said that god wanted people to believe in Demon, to believe that there was a god. Through her being possessed, people can actually see that Demon is real, that there is god. Emily was given a chance to choose; she can either go with Virgin Mary to heaven or she could stay in her body, suffering. She chose to stay because she wanted to help god. But anyhow, she died,er..i’m not sure why.

Yeah, I know I suck in telling stories...but it’s hard enough to tell the story, let alone put it in words. Anyway, this show is really nice in the sense that it is REAL, yes; it was based on a true story. It’s a horror story with no ghost in it. You can’t see a ghost at all but it was a damn scary movie.

I’ll give it 9/10 (I would have given it a 10 if not because of that bitch)

You gotta see it to believe it.
