hey, sorry for not updating so much! its just the new year started and my life suddenly got so busy!
27,28,29,30 december - trip to malacca, bukit tinggi and genting highlands with uncle gary's family and liang fu uncle's family.
27 decemberthe 3 families drove all the way up to malacca! had some yummy food on the way to 'the hereen inn', where we would stay for the night. the windows were so huge, stupid zhilin climbed through it from the outside to their room.
then, we went to walk along the streets, stopped for yummy yummy
chendol! yucks, the rest had durian chendol while me and liangfu uncle had normal chendols unlike the other abnormal people. the durian haters. we walked some more, and we had laksa. i didnt eat the one with the laksa, just the noodles so it wasnt hot. lucky me, the
laksa was not really that tasty.
after the walking aorund and the eating around, we went back to the inn, to take a tiny rest and walk to the restaurant where our former
president teo chee hean ate. which meant the restuarant meant
'ka-ching!$$'. and yeah, the boss was quite
'haolian' like how the inn-keeper told us. but the food was good it was not enough to fill the tummies of the 3 brothers and 2 sisters, went back to the hotel to shower. and obviously zhiyang, zhijing and zhilin were not full. so we went to a nearby coffee shop which sold good yummy satays.
finally, we back to the inn again for a good night's rest.(:
28 decemberwoke up quite early to make our way up to bukit tinggi. but of course we had breakfast before we left. we were greeted with
haianese[sp] chicken and riceballs. yummy yummy yummy!
when we finally reached bukit tinggi, the weather was much much colder than the weather down at malacca. loved it. bukit tinggi's french village is like a really relaxing place. drifts you away from all the worries and troubles. we took a ride to rabbit farm to grab hold of some cute, cuddly rabbits. the cutest one we carried was a
pure grey rabbit which was so quiet when its on our hands! then, we went somewhere else.
afterwards, we went back to the french village to shower and everything and have a buffet downstairs. dinner was really good,with lamb, soup, chicken, desserts, etc. after we were full,
me and zhilin went to play daytona, like the other time we were here. coolios! but then, there were so many people there, we decided to just play street fighter first, then we played the motocycle game, where we were moaning how difficult it was to manuever[sp] our way thru the course. finally we got to play daytona. was really fun! haha, then
my sis, zhiyang and zhijing walked in and played daytona too. went to the next door arcade, to play with a machine with loads of games.
full force! we played them together haha. then we watched the dancers
dance and all. then, we went back to the hotel. no cards): so we couldnt play any. sad.
29 decemberwoke up quite early again, and had buffet breakfast downstairs. food was yummy again! and we took a ride to the botanical garden for a look-see. we walked down the path stumbling upon tiny insects. man,
God's creativity must be real good!then, we checked out of the french village and drove to genting highlands! its just the next mountain from bukit tinggi! we reached there about 2 plus 3. and had lunch! my sis, zhijing, zhilin and i had burger king, burger did not taste as nice as the one's made in Singapore though. zhiyang had marrybrown, i think. then we went back to the foodcourt where all the adults were and took money from them so we could take the rides and all.
guessed who we met, actually they met us!
my uncle and my cousins and my nieces and my nephews! jenny jiejie saw us! haha, and as usual fostina was sleeping! haha, so cool! we talked took pictures and all, then we parted. then, the adults left us. so the 5 of us explored the place.
first stop, 4d stimulator ride - it wasnt that nice. the story was called
'ali baba's rescue' or something. i did not even get how he saved the princess man. then ride was quite lame. it just moved front, left, right, back. then change pattern. spray air, spray water. i didnt really felt anything. haha, but ohwells!
second stop, euro express - the ride was really fast. but it was not scary. haha, they should turn the roller coaster more times, then it would be more fun! we screamed for fun. hahaha!
thrid stop, flying coaster - we walked out and was welcomed by the
passing clouds! was really cool! was trying to grab the clouds, but to no avail. ): then, we waited for the ride, queuing up and all. and some one vomitted while riding the ride!! ewww!! but then they washed, then sprayed the dettol thing loads of times. then left if
fly fly fly fly fly loads of times. finally our turn! it thought it wont be scary, but when it was turning and turning its way up, the suspend was about to kill me! zhilin was say he
does not want to die and i wasl ike
shit shit shit shit shit!! and my sis and zhijing was like normal. then it started! was quite fun la. but my eyes were half-closed cause of the wind and my specs were like almost coming out and i needed to push it back again and again! but it was quite fun!
went back indoors to find the adults, by than it was 6.30 -ish. then uncle gary's family went off again so the little kiddies and continue to ride what they want and we met at 7.30. then the rest of us went to ripley's believe if or not! haunted mansion thing. to view all the exhibits! it was really really really really cool!! strange yet cool! we thought it would finish real fast, but we took 2h 30mins to finished viewing all the exhibits. cause we were reading and laughing and everything! the funniest thing was that at first we didnt know that the
mirror was a one-way mirror and we were doing faces cause we just watched a tape on how the extrodinary people could roll their tongue and all. it was so funny man. and there was the
frozen shadow, and me and my sis did a
kung-ku posed and our shadows got frozen and man
did we look cool! finally, we were out of the exhibit and it was like 9 plus!
we drove back down to genting and had dinner at the hotel. showered and everything. by then it was like passed 12. bid goodnight and all went to have a peaceful sleep. who knew, i was woken up to a voice singing at around 5 plus! it was the mosque nearby, singing hymms i guess? was kinda annoyed at them, but i went back to sleep.
30 decemberwe woke up, had breakfast at the hotel. haha buffet again! was not bad la, the food. then, we had to make our way back to singapore! how sad!!! we went to shop at some place first. and man zhiyang, zhijiang and zhilin and sure shop man!! continued our way down, and when we reached johor, we went to jusco for a shopping spree! wasnt really a spree la. i just bought
a pair of b.u.m jeans and a 3/4 sleeve shirt. yepp, then we had dinner at the
3 story noodle place! haha, reminds me of when jian chang uncle fell down his chair!
went through the migration place and we all made our way back!
the trip was real fun and all. thanks for it - the people who went!
