Road trip 2 - It happened!
Saturday was a super-stressed out time. I woke up n headed to bedok sports hall for the JC tournament. Was shocked to see karfu n don (yeah, that guy everyone hated)representing VJC.. Anyway, it ran late n yen yen refused to let me leave (for some reason, she thinks i'm the best announcer??) so i had to get peiqi to help me take class for the 1st hour. Rushed down to class after n realised dehua was there to help too. Anyway, ended class n drove everyone to my place. Packed in 3 min, hurried my brother, then set off for malaysia! Elinn decided not to go so it was just dehua, peiqi, my brother n myself.
Went via the 1st link. Had dinner at JB (butter crayfish rox!!) n zoomed off towards Sri Petaling since peiqi's friend stayed there. After a challenging drive, we found the place at around 2+am but there was no more room at the hotel. So we drove into KL n circled the place looking for alternatives. Saw a nice-looking Cititel hotel n tried going there but simply couldn't find the road in. Was beating the red lights since there was no car and got caught by 2 policemen. Decided to "settle privately" (they were just waiting for us to say that..) with RM50 n they escorted us all the way to Cititel hotel! There was a part of the road that was jammed up due to a road block, and our "escort" cleared the road for us!! Gosh.. that's one of the things that RM50 can buy you. By the time we got to Cititel, it was around 4am.
Woke up the next morning n decided to give the hotel breakfast a miss cos we were meeting peiqi's friend for dim sum. Her friend's probably going to fight fong yi min's weight in the coming SEA Games n had won dunno how many medals in how many tourneys. After our breakfast, we went to take a look at the malaysia's NTC. We played there for a while, awed ourselves with the training facilities for sports in malaysia. Apparently, national team players all stayed in the hostels there n they've got fields for all kinds of sports. TKD was next to the hockey and soccer fields. Almost every sport was gathered there.
Left the place n headed towards Genting after some direction guidance from peiqi's friend. While looking for a parking lot, a tout came along n asked if we needed a room to stay. Of cos we did since the hotels were all full. He quoted us a rate which was 3 times the price we paid in KL. After much bargaining with him, we had it for RM520. Figured it was alrite if we splitted that amount n oso cos there were 2 queen sized beds in the "suite" n the walk-in rate was RM600 for that room. My brother became the tour guide since he's been there so often. Dehua n Peiqi headed to casino. I played pool, ate some food n watched starwars with my bro. Sound system sux big time man. By the time our show ended, peiqi n dehua were oredi waiting for us in the hotel room. Apparently they had pretty huge earnings.. We had pizza for dinner after much deliberation n they continued gambling after dinner. I walked around the casinos with my bro but didn't gamble. Left the place after n headed to our room. Caught the ending of taking lives n another stupid show (malibu's most wanted) on tv. Wanted to do my work, but my bro kept distracting me! Peiqi n dehua joined us in the room just after the show ended. Apparently, dehua lost all his earnings n was quite upset abt it.. hmm...
Headed back to KL at noon. On the way there, we saw some pahang escort on the highway n was tailgating them since they drove so slowly at 110km/h! No one dared to overtake them, n everyone was literally following my car. We were thinking if we should turn our hazard lights on too n confuse everyone into thinking that we're part of the escort..
Picked peiqi's friend up n had lunch at chee chiong gai. I bought a few more dvds, exchanged some while peiqi bought shoes. Went to Low Yat Plaza after then headed back to JB. We had more crayfish (2 rounds at different stalls) n very nice pork ribs! Didn't order frog since peiqi wouldn't be eating that so had ostrich meat instead. Bought mangosteens n mangoes then headed back to singapore. The people were driving ridiculously close. 1 car even used his wing mirror to rub against mine. I was so pissed off with that indian guy. By the time we got back to singapore, it was past midnight. Home sweet home..
