Mum called. Dad is on the way down from Genting to pick me up. I was tired. I barely have 2 hours of sleep. Yeah…. in case anyone forget, I packed like 1/4 of my room stuff there. I dunno what got in to me. I just feel I need to have everything there. As if I am staying there for good.
Finally dad arrived. First thing mum say to me was “You’ve gone fatter” Okay.. I know I know.. That’s not what I wanna hear in the early morning . Dad as usual will deny the fact that I have been gaining weight. Well, I used to be fatter, and I guess that image is still in his head, so as long as I am not as fat as what I used to be… He will still say.. “No lah, It’s just the cloths she is wearing”. HOW SWEET~
p/s – I sleep all the way from my house to Genting

There are some people in front of me who step on their brakes so I will have to step on it and overtake them. Okay first time doing that in my life. Felt a little less nervous now. Okay… I am still very concentrated. I can see my sister and jason was like bored half way of the ride. But I dunno… my first driving experience.

It’s lunch time. Yeap, we ate at the canteen inside the Theme Park. Yeah, when we bought the tickets, we got this discount coupons so we decided to use it. Don’t waste mar. Hehehe.. seriously food service there is bad. It’s rather slow and ermmm un-effective. Jason’s lamb chop was terrible, it only has fries, salad and fries. They din give him cucumbers and tomatoes. Poor poor. What’s e ven worst.. Its so salty I could hardly taste the lamb. My chicken chop was the last to arrive. I din want to have heavy lunch coz I’m waiting for mum’s cooking. I gave 1/4 to my sis and 1/4 to jason. One thing cool about this place. Hahaa.. you can play games for free~ while waiting for your food.
The ride must go on! How can we stop just like that lar. We dun intend to vomit our precious lunch out so we all went for something not so thrilling. Something that doesn’t really excite our heart and brain that much. We walked around looking at the map what we haven’t play. Actually I should say what’s available on plate since almost 1/2 of it is closed for maintenance. Yeah raya and deepavali is up soon. They gotta get ready for that crowd and ignore us.
Yeap… I’m leaving on a jet plane. To where? NO idea, where ever this Astro Fighter takes me I guess. Hemm…. And seriously, of all plane I chose this lousy plane… that can’t rise and land. Just going round and round in circle. How sad case lah!

Jason brought the tickets and well, they prvide 20% discount for VISA card members. Wooo hooo… so we got 5th row from the stage tickets for only RM56. That was dead cheap.
We then headed back to our apartment, have dinner, bath, rest a little and get ready to watch the exciting show. Hahaha… yeah I will be talking about the show in the next entry. I think I already have a super long entry for the day~
