Signed a contract to take the brass section of a sec sch…
Went on a year-end trip with my dearest meow….~
Year end trip…
What a nice and relaxing way to end the year…
Went for a short trip….
Left for Genting Highlands on 26th Dec….
Got thru the JB customs 2nd link at 12midnite…
Not feeling well… wondering if it’s the hotplate I had for lunch..
Breaking out a cold n fever….
Sianz…
Felt weaker n weaker during the journey…
Had supper at Ayer Hitam…
Reach First World Hotel at abt 6am?
Had hot chocolate at starbucks….
Then walk thru the cold corridor to the hotel we’re going to stay at…
Resort Hotel…
1st world hotel rooms is newer but crammy….
Resort hotel’s room space ok, but got 2 queen side beds…
Still too early to check in..
So we sat at the coffeebean….
Slept till 930am then khoo n ginny started queueing to check in…
I still not feeling well… so I slept till they settled the procedures….
Got our rooms at 1030am…. We at 16144, ginny n khoo at 16146…
We slept till abt 230pm n headed for lunch…
Elsie n I took our lunch at Kenny Rogers… cos just 2 weeks b4 she went to Malacca with her sch…. Then saw the pamplet for Kenny rogers but didn’t have a chance to try…
So this time round, she die die must try…. Hahahahhaa…
The Kenny rogers working system differ from singapore’s….
For those who been to sg’s noe how we work..
Then for our Malaysian counter-parts…. It like going into a restaurant….
U sit down… look thru the menu and the waiter comes n take ur orders…
So we ordered the chessy spag with ¼ chix, bolognaise spag with ¼ chix, hot potato jacket with 3 side dishes…
The food sure took a long time to arrive… cos is u order liao then they cook…. Unless singapore’s… almost like fast food….
Then by the time our food got to us… it’s quite cold liaoz…
The chix herby taste is more sourish then singapore’s…
The hot side dishes are also cold liaoz…
Is it the climate? The temp of the surroundings?
Anyway… the bill came… and I pay for it…
Elsie n I walked round the indoor theme park…
Too late to try out the outdoor stuffs… so many pple…
We bought 2 tixs to watch phantom of the opera…
830pm show…
then we took the wormy monorail ride… brings u round the indoor n outdoor theme parks…
the flying coaster looks fun… but not worth the price now… cos it’s just launched this dec’04….
Then we go back hotel room n rest b4 going out for the movie later….
Ginny n khoo just came back too…
Told them abt the Kenny rogers… show them the receipt for it then realized tt the waiter took the wrong receipt to me… hahaha…
So be abt 45-50 ringgits… I ended only paying 30.10ringgits… n I gave him 2.20ringgit as tips… hahahah~!
Left the rm at 8pm n went over for the movie…
Ooh~ I love the way phantom was made…
It’s like a closer look at the whole story..
I watch the musical when it was in Singapore in march 1995? At kallang theatre….
The aria ‘think of me’ has a different cadenza at the end… was surprised by it… refreshing…. Hahaha~
Phantom looks like Antonio Banderas…. Hee~
Sad ending…. Phantom in hiding, christine’s dead, raoul is old…
Ooh~ and Meg Giry…. I didn’t noe is a blonde with huge shalfed up in ur face knockers…
The show ended abt 11pm… we had dinner at kryos kebab…. Another mistake… the kebab meat so dry like bah-kua~!
Walked abt… went to buy Baskin Robbins Ice Cream… 3 scoops… strawberry, cookie ‘n cream, and chocolate with hazelnut… so good~!
Went back rm…. Showered… elsie fell asleep while I was watching Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on tv…. The next show was Ghostship… I didn’t noe… cos I went out to the lift lobby to smoke… came back started showing liaoz…. I got the disc… elsie told me to buy tt time… but the irony of it is she wanted to watch but I didn’t want to watch tt time… now I ended up watching it with her sleeping besides me… hahahah~

Wad’s lok-lok? It’s basically mobile streamboat makan…. The ingredients are all poked onto satay sticks… then diff food got diff price… so it’s abt R$1.5-2.5/stick…
Aft u selected what u want, then u dump them into a hot boiling pot of soup stock cum streamboat…. Then u either eat on the spot or u can packet back… then the aunty will count the sticks n charge u accordingly…
