Of The Cause for My Oscar-Winning Performances

Haha, unfortunately no. I didn't get an Oscar for anything, nor am I going to reveal where and when and how my performance took place. =P

Anyway, I woke up obscenely early on Friday (10.30 a.m.), but I kept hammering my alarm clock, activating the snooze and allowing me some 15 more minutes for the 8 hours of sleep I had allocated for myself. HAIH. The willpower of me. Haha

Washed up, got dressed, ate and went to Gardens to meet Chris and Joey. As usual, I was late. But seriously it wasn't my fault entirely! They shouldn't invent alarm clocks with snooze functions. It's just too... tempting. And heck, I love sleeping!

So I was "looking for them", actually looking for some restaurant I heard about. Listening to some A7X song on my iPod, I heard some jakun-ted noise from behind me. Hehe turns out that horrible sound originated from the two early birds =P across one of the several magical glass bridges in Gardens. (SKYVIEW HOOOOOOOOO!)

See the sky lah! Ok, moving on. We walked to MV to have Mcd's! I seriously don't know why some people have a problem with eating at Mcd's. It's cheap and fast! And it's cheap! Haha, well let's just say I'm a pretty kiamsiap guy and I was saving for something special =D

Then a few phonecalls were made and I realized I was probably the LAST guy to reach the place, having just found out that the rest had been shopping in Gardens all along. Hehe oops. We WERE making our way to the place but we just kept bumping into aquaintances and buddies, i.e. Prthiv, Ivan, Stan, Amir and SHAMEER!

Having hurdled those "obstacles", we walked to Gardens and Chris and I bonded while the girls did what they did best, SHOP. It was the first time I'd seen you in a while. A sight for very sore eyes. Anyway, Chris and I eventually got bored, so we went to Lacoste, took one look at A price tag and left, went to some other shop I can't recall, then into Levi's and out again, back to Miss Sixty where the girls were and they were still in the changing room. WOW.

Haha I'll never understand the shopping drive girls have. It's like... what drives guy to breathe. Instinct? I don't know! =P Anyway, after they were done, we went straight to the cinema, as we were ALMOST late. Bought some water, went in for Twilight.

It was OKAY lah. But don't take my word for it. I didn't watch some parts. =D When a guy's gotta go, he's gotta go right? Haha after the movie we made our way to MV for the Quiksilver/Roxy sale! 50% off! Walao eh!

Haha for the first time in a long time, I spent money for stuff I didn't really need. The occasional indulgence is forgivable, no? Haha even then I failed to fathom the shopping drives of girls. As you would expect, the place was PACKED. People were LITERALLY standing shoulder to shoulder.

Haha, I guess we fellow Malaysians can't stand to watch a bargain pass us by. Though 50% off some of the stuff still seemed hardly worth it. Considering my limited cash, I just got a pair of flip-flops, something I've wanted for a pretty long time, and a belt. All in all was about 70 bucks shaved off my wallet. PAINFUL.

Haha thus my kiamsiapness is revealed! After that, went to Italiannies for dinner. Pretty nice, wasn't it? =D Haha it's a good thing we shared, had I eaten one plate to myself I would have died on the spot. Hmm, many firsts we share, no?

After that, we just walked aimlessly around Gardens, entering every shop which took to our fancy. Though I knew I wasn't going to buy anything, I still enjoyed myself thoroughly. Maybe it was the mood the mall gave off, or maybe it was just the company. =D

After much more walking and talking, one of us went home, so what was left of the group walked back to MV and went to MPH. The nerd in me prevailed and I found myself flipping through this architechtural book, maybe looking for some ideas to play around with in Sketchup.

Thus, that concluded our day out. I went home and found that the mosquitoe bite on my neck had developed into some weird bruise-looking thing. Maybe I rubbed it too hard or something. Haha apparently it looks like a hickey >=P Yes, you guys fell for it.

Cool?

I'm actually enjoying reading Twilight. Pretty unexpected.

We can't do it later. So we'll do it now.

Adventure in the Clouds!

PMR's over and done with. Books and pens are a thing of the not-so-distant past. Some of us have forgotten how to write. What do you do when you're in such a predicament? *Ahem*

YOU GO TO GENTING WITH YOUR BUDDIES!

The first 417 (almost) vacation!

After some confusion about the bus departure, we eventually reached Genting at about 2, checked in, and went to First World Plaza to HYPER! The highlight was the Haunted House, which wasn't really haunted nor scary. I just screamed for the fun of it. Really. No, seriously. Hehe.

After much walking around and arcading, we went to the hotel and picked up Kong. Then we went for dinner at HAPPY VALLEY! Haha what a name, considering it was at the peak of a mountain. Though we were pretty happy. Many thanks to SanYap/Syap/Yaspan/ShiningMoon for the 30% discount voucher thingy.

After dinner, we went back to the hotel to gamble. I won 4 bucks! Though I've yet to collect my winnings, I doubt I ever will. Then, after bathing, we went to the cinema, at 11.15 pm, to watch "The Coffin". I didn't even have a say in the movie choice! When I was informed they bought a ticket for me, I was like, what the hell?

Haha, but honestly it wasn't that scary at all! Heck, Ivan and Stan fell asleep! Though some PEOPLE *ahemJenandXyang* were scared shitless. It didn't really matter that it was 1 something when the movie ended, since most of us were still super hyper. But I, due to the little sleep I got the night before, talking to her, was EXTREMELY exhausted. Sanyap and Derrick too.

So we broke off from the group and headed back to the hotel for some shut-eye. And Kong mysteriously went off somewhere to "walk walk". HEHE! Wonder what he meant by that.

After about an hour, the rest of the guys came back from their "Candyland", and wreaked havoc in the hotel room. But I was just too damn tired to join in. So after a while, Sanyap and I left the room and went to sleep with Kong. ON A DIFFERENT BED, of course. Ah, utter silence and bliss from the next hotel room where don't know what was going on.

The next day, we all woke up like zombies, and had little energy. Sanyap and I had about 3 hours of sleep, while the others had about 1. Haha even so, I too was a zombie. But when we're all together it doesn't take long for us to return to hyper-ness. Thus, we ventured to the theme park! After having MarryBrown's for breakfast, which was surprisingly pretty scrumptious, we bought our tickets and went loose.

We went on the Swinger, the Go-Karts, the Flying Coaster and others, but for me the best was the Space Shot. Being a chicken in the past, I'd never ridden on it before. But heck, I've conquered that fear =P

As you would imagine, being hyper for long periods of time can lead to extreme fatigue, and while waiting for the Bumper Boats, many fell asleep or at least tried to, me included. I mean what kind of ride has a line an hour and 15 mins long?! But it was pretty worth it. =P We spent half the time in the boats bullying the sole non-417 person on the lake, a little 7/8 year old boy =D Haha we were freaking evil.

After having lunch, at MarryBrown's yet again, some left us, opting to go home and get some much needed rest. Xyang, Stan, Ivan, Weijun, and I opted to stay behind and play some more, while Derrick, who was sick, stayed in the hotel.

After playing 'til about 6.23 pm, we left for the hotel to get our luggage and walked the long, ardous journey to the cable car station. By then I was pretty tired, and no one really talked much. After realizing the cable car and bus tickets were lost, we bought new ones and headed down the hill. Xyang and I then left for dinner with the family at our usual Gohtong Jaya haunt.

And that concluded our 417 Genting Trip! Reading about fun experiences can be pretty bland, so for the first time in this blog's history, it's going to have PICTURES!

Enjoy the feast for your eyes. =D

BBQ POOL PARTY AT JUIN'S HOUSE!

I LOVE parties at Juin's house! I always seem to become either extremely hyper or blissfully immersed in bliss.

As usual I got there late, but the FESTIVITIES hadn't begun yet! After getting mobbed by the guys, they gave REALLY funny (quite bad, but still funny) ideas to me. And I'm kinda glad i decided against using them. =D

Slowly, everyone started arriving and suddenly Juin's house was crawling with crazy, noisy teenagers! Haha I think her parents must have had one hell of a headache. =D make that two!

Anyways, after much pujuk-ing, people started fulfilling the purpose of the pool party, which was jumping into the pool! Haha we had many a crazy time in there! Pics are unavailable to me at the moment, but I don't really intend to get any.

After a couple of accidents in there, we slowly got out and went to chomp on the pot-luck grub. But the best was the BBQ beef =D

"Ah Mah!! Medium-rare!!"

"OKAY!!"

After eating and "scaring" people with the non-existant Sally who was constantly sitting next to ANYONE who had an empty seat next to him/her. Quite retarded! But we were high. And we played with the sparkling juice bottles! Shoot shoot! Hehe!

Later that night, we switched off the lights and told GHOST STORIES! Haha when I was halfway through mine, some people left the room in FEAR! Hahahah chickens! Someone left halfway through too. Felt bad for not following out. Damnit.

After that, we had an EXTREMELY hyper session of SIGN! Walao, I don't think I had been so hyper since... I don't remember. We did that for what seemed like an eternity, then went home at 12. Wow. Midnight.

I had the best time. =D

I'm pretty glad it happened. Scratch that. I was absolutely euphoric. We could have basked in that perfect bliss forever.

Zyang.
