When you hardly ever get to meet the people that matter due to a myriad of "excuses" such as busy schedules, distance, no money, can't be bothered dressing up, no time, don't feel like going out and the like, nothing beats spending a full day out with them when you finally get the chance.

For bestie Joyce and I, we don't hang out as often as we did (when we were both students/classmates) anymore, but absence only makes the heart grow fonder!

Remember my previous chapter about the Super Sweet BFF Hello Kitty party that we decided to go together?

I headed to her place last Saturday morning and picked her up for our full day out!

We were excited and gushed about what the day had in store for us.

Our plan for the day was to have a catch-up lunch together before pampering ourselves with a girly afternoon of manicures, make-up makeovers, hair styling, taking lots of photos together, airbrush tattoos, catching a movie and so much more.

My Hello Kitty look of the day (for a competition)

I don't usually portray the "act cute" or put on the whole "oh-look-at-me-I'm-so-Japanese-I-must-be-kawaii" look, but this afternoon was an image I went for to match the Hello Kitty theme of the event.

You know I never fail to go in accordance to ANY themeparty, right? This was no exception.

Arriving on the red carpet at GSC Pavilion KL

I signed my name on the guestlist, we got ourselves wrist-tagged and were ready to start our day!

But before that, I was given a baby pink Hello Kitty press kit.

Inside, it was packed with so many goodies that the girliest of all girls could only love!

A Hello Kitty facial mask, glittery faux gems, custom-made Hello Kitty raspberry-flavoured candy,

bling decor-stickers & a Hello Kitty notebook all in a matching Hello Kitty baby pink goody bag.

Despite being already inside the event vicinity, we could not stop enthusing over the first thing that greeted us at the entrance. It was life-sized and probably the LARGEST decoration set-up of the party.

See it for yourself!

It was an enormous Hello Kitty arch made of baby pink helium balloons!!

Apart from that, we were totally blown away by the rest of the carefully-thought out decorations and interior

It really set us in the perfect mood for an all-girls day out!

One section of the venue was set in a Hello Kitty tea-party theme.

There was a delightful display of assorted pastries, candies, Hello Kitty cupcakes, strawberries and other desserts all in pink! How adorable

Even the drinks were pink. Check it out!

Sipping on a milky rosewater syrup drink,

popularly known as the 'Sirap Bandung' to the locals

We continued exploring the area and took even more photos as the time passed.

Just a little heads up, I'm going to regurgitate almost all the photos that of Joyce and I took of ourselves in this blog post. We will not be responsible if you get sick of our faces after your finish reading this

At the official photo wall of the Samsung Galaxy Y Hello Kitty Super Sweet BFF party!

After some thinking, we then decided on what to treat ourselves with first.

As the manicure booth had a lesser queue at the time, the first thing we did was to get our nails done!

At the manicure booth

As I liked all the colours, the manicurist decided to give me a mix of all!

Done! She even stuck diamante blings and tiny Hello Kitty stickers on some of my nails

Next up, we headed to where all the dressing tables with huge & brightly-lit mirrors were!

Can anyone say, hello superstar?

Reminds me of an actual make-over studio! You know, the kind you see in movies?

We couldn't resist taking a selfie with it

I had my make-up touched up and got the make-up artist to draw pink whiskers on my cheeks…

… while bestieJoyce got her hair done in a pretty, fancy do!

Here I am waiting for my turn!

I waited for almost half an hour only to realize that I probably wasn't going to get my hair done anytime soon

The crowd was massive, particularly in the hair and make-up booths! Everyone was queuing up to get themselves snazzy new hairdos

Look how busy all the stylists were with the throng of enthusiastic girls!!

In the end, I didn't manage to get my hair done.  But no matter! BestieJoyce did

Look at her really cool Roman princess-like hair braids! I absolutely loved it

It was sectioned & braided into several parts, tied down, twisted into buns, bobby pinned into place

and all jazz that can only professional hair stylists could comprehend!

Having so many tattoos (real ones, mind you!) you would think that I am disinterested in airbrush tattoos

But you're wrong! I was really keen and even queued up for it.

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to get my Hello Kitty airbrush tattoo done as well!
I shall tell you why, in a bit. But first, photos with my friends

Jojo & I

Kate & I (thanks for the photo, babe!)

Yeeing & I (thanks for the photo too, babe!)

bestieJoyce and I

Audrey, Cheesie & I

So many of my other girl friends were there; it was near impossible to take a photo with ALL of them.

Anyway, bestieJoyce and I continued with our day's activities…

Live Facebook updates of the Hello Kitty event!

The huge screen was in the form of the Samsung Galaxy Y Hello Kittylimited edition smartphone!

How smart of Samsung to decorate it as such, instead of just a boring black screen, ey?

And guess who was on their Facebook live updates? *wink*

Thanks for the photo, Samsung!!

Hello Kitty usherettes showcasing the said limited edition Hello Kitty smartphone

I got to take a look & play around with the Samsung Galaxy Y. I liked it a lot!

An even closer look. Look at the cute interface, the icons and the wallpaper!!

I think this smartphone is a really cool entry-level phone for female, girlish youngsters who likes being online, virtually & socially connected and of course, one who loves pink and Hello Kitty!

Oh yes, which reminds me! If you purchase one, you will stand a chance to win a trip to the much talked about Hello Kitty Sanrio town! Details: here

Not too long after, our emcee of the afternoon,

Jojo Struys, had begun announcing the nominees of the 'Best Dressed' competition.

Guess what? I got nominated

Thanks Audrey!

Here I am with some of the fellow nominees for the Hello Kitty 'Best Dressed' competition!

Remember when I said I didn't get to do my airbrush tattoo?

Here's the story : I was queuing up for it for a long time until it was almost my turn! But suddenly, my name was called out to go onstage as a finalist for the said competition just before I began my airbrush tattoo! Bye bye tattoo

But everything turned out better than expected, for I was one of the five winners of

the 'Best Dressed' competition and won myself that Galaxy Y Hello Kitty limited edition smartphone!

As this was a BFF party for best friends, Samsung also gave the prize to the winners' best friend!

So by association, bestieJoyce won a Samsung Galaxy Y Hello Kitty limited edition smartphone too!

The first thing I said to her was, "Chehwaaaaahh. Very lucky to be my friend, hor?" 

LOL I'm kidding!

SO HAPPY. I WON I WON I WON!!!

Thank you so much, dear judges and to Samsung!

Us being on film!

After all the hullabaloo was over, the final activity took to the stage.

The usherettes made sure the runway was completely clear of people, as a bevy of five beautiful Hello Kitty models sashayed into the venue and gave us a brilliant catwalk show, displaying all things girly & their Hello Kitty ensemble, of course!

Some of the models posing for countless cameras on the bright pink podiums

Want a closer look at ALL EIGHT of the Hello Kitty models?
Yup, I thought so. Here you go!

The beautiful, lanky and feminine Hello Kitty models of the day onstage!

BestieJoyce and I loved their whole Hello Kitty get-up! Such creative outfits, not to mention adorable too

Our favorite was the one on the right, with the long, flowy gown comprising a lacy, satin corset with frills and ruffles for a skirt that bounced everytime she took a step forward. It was elaborate yet very chic!

Another one of, what felt like, three million photos we took that afternoon

Our final selfie before we adjourned inside for the premier screening of 'The Rise of the Guardians'

Upon entering the cinema hall, we saw that we were supplied popcorn (in a Hello Kitty box) and a drink!

I must say, well done to the team behind today's event! Everything, from the start of the event right till the very end, was done in the minutest details to make us feel special and pampered

Yay! Hello Kitty popcorn for all of us

Before the movie began, we had a little time to selfie again

'The Rise of the Guardians' was a brilliant animated movie!

I left the cinema filled with fond memories of my childhood, of fairy tales and believing in the magic of Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the Sandman, the Boogeyman, the Easter Bunny and so much more.

The movie was not only hilarious at so many parts, it was laden with moral values and the spirit of friendship, love and adventure too. Oh, and not forgetting, lots and lots of snow

Here's to a wonderful start to December!

As we go on, we remember, all the times we, had together…

and as our lives change, from whatever, we will still be friends forever!

Yes, it's a song, if you didn't already realize

Thank you Samsung, for having us today. As if it wasn't obvious enough, you made us two very happy girls indeed!

Hollaaaaa! Hope your weekend is going swell, dear readers

Mine has been hectic but fun thus far! I just returned from a full day at the 'Avengers With Harley' event.

Many thanks to Harley Davidson for inviting me as their guest!

I had a swell time checkin' out and even riding your buncha sexy superbikes. It an was out-of-this-world experience! The private screening of Marvel's The Avenger's with good company & all the bikers was amazing too

More of that in another blogpost!

Random photo : sunny skies ahead!

   Oooh and here's a Health & Money tip for today! 

Steadfast in my daily routine is lots of gymtime and fresh fruits & vegetables everyday.

My gym essentials

To complement your healthy lifestyle, blend your own fresh fruit juice at home!

Theboyf and I bought a whole lot of fruits & veggies yesterday at the market and it only costed us 6 bucks altogether.  

Imagine buying fruit juice from a juice bar – 10 bucks for a blend of only 3 fruits, sugared, watered down and filled with ice.

Nope, not wise at all. 

This morning, we had a power combination of 5 types of fruits & 2 veggies

Let's see. Green apples, red apples, oranges, pears, a pineapple, celery sticks & carrots.

100% fresh, pure, concentrated fruit juice including the pulp for only RM6 FOR TWO HUGE GLASSES! 

Apart from the labour of cutting & juicing the fruits by ourselves (and rinsing the equipment thereafter) it is a fun thing to do together, I must say! 

Upon taking our 1st sip of our homemade fruit juice, we nodded in approval and high-fived each other for a job well done. 

Did some juicing with buddy Pamela at home too!

We used a combo of red apples, oranges, carrots & pears 😀

By the way, some of you have been asking me why I haven't been updating much this month.

Now that you've mentioned, it kinda struck me.  

Probably 'cos I'm often out and about even more lately that I hardly have the time to sit at my computer anymore.

Apologies! 🙁 You can still catch up with me via my twitter page 

Promise I'll be updating a whole lot more, aight? 🙂 

Oh, and to make up for lost time, here's a back to back of some photos & happenings I've missed out on sharing with you peeps.

Saved a kitten from being crushed in the middle of the road

Speaking of felines, here are a few latest piccies of my furkid, Chivas.

He's such an adorable ball of fluff, 10 months old now 🙂

Just got him neutered!

Was extended an invitation to Werner's @ Changkat Bukit Bintang to attend a launch party jointly organized by Corset Me, Rarablack and Lovely Legs.

They held a sexy corset party – CANDYGIRL – and it was fun trying out their corsets, leggings and other outfits!

The ladies from Corset Me did a live demonstration of the proper & correct way to wear a corset

I've personally never worn an *actual* corset before!

I only own those corset-look-a-like tube tops from Guess, Forever 21 and MNG. 

This live demonstration was informational & pretty fun to watch

They then offered to let me try their corsets. I got to choose whichever corset that suits my style the most!

The kind lady-boss of Corset Me – Jaycee – helped me wear it properly. Thanks again!

Before I knew it, I was ushered to the studio area to do a photoshoot with their corset on.

My style was evident tonight – an edgy, rockerchick look with a feminine touch 

I picked a black Ed Hardy inspired corset

Felt so jittery throughout the photoshoot!

I've always felt more comfortable being the photographer than being photographed. But I hope I pulled it off!

Mui Victoria and I during the event

Michelle and I just before we left the event!

Two photos : one from my camera & one from hers 🙂

It was a fun and enlightening night. I had a great time!

Attended Carlsberg Where's The Party event

Thanks for the photos, Ed 🙂

Just some photos from ze clan's Christmas potluck party. I made roast! 😀 😀

Again, thanks for the photos Ed!

Brought theboyf back to Penang for the 1st time

Had my Industrial Piercing re-pierced because I didn't like the initial positioning

Went for a double date with my pals!

Speaking of which, it's been a while since we last had our dose of Milkshake Factory, ey? 😛

Played with food

Ate too much good food

…….. that it's time for a moneydiet

Went to Semenyih for the 1st time to accompany buddy Pam's trip Nottingham University

Photo taken while waiting for her 🙂

Played and experimented with pretty contact lenses!

Clockwise : olive green, ash, brown, violet

Had a random burst of OCD and I started to reorganize my contact lenses

Bought new grey diamond ones! Love how they have sucha strong affinity to the eyeballs

  Just so you know, all the contact lenses I'm wearing are plano ones.

Zero power, as I am neither short-sighted nor long-sighted.

But unfortunately, I have very high astigmatism.

Got my eyes checked!

Fell in love with this tiny car with a Union Jack roof!

Also fell in love with this random cloud I saw by the display window in the mall!

Camwhored in the car while waiting in the bubble jet carwash machine!

Attended one of the series of Guinness's St. Patrick's Day celebrations at Jarrod & Rawlins!

Brought along buddy Pam to join in the greeeeeeen Irish fun 

Massive retail therapy when I got real moody sometime last month

Pampered my nails – DIY at home! 😀

Random shot via iTouch at KLCC carpark

Random shot via iTouch at The Curve's carpark

Also a random shot, this time in Sunway instead!

Had a scrumptious dinner feast with the Aussiemates at Souled Out

Camwhoring with theboyf with full hopes of getting a nice photo but………

Such is life 

Attended the Laura Mercier Spring 2012 Collection & Swatch launch

Had my make up done by the professional make-up artists there!

Met the amazing Jodi Riley, the official, international make-up artist of Laura Mercier

She's so bubbly and full of personality!

Lastly, went back to school with buddy Pam to visit our high school teachers &

eat the famous Char Koay Teow at our canteen!

Surely you must miss your high school food after growing up with it for 11 years of your early life 😛

We certainly did.

That being said, have a good night (or a party night!)

and enjoy your Sunday ahead lovelies! 

So yes. Most of you lovely people out there knew that I attended a party last night dressed as Lady Gaga.
 

It was a music bash party, featuring music on-the-go downloads on the new iPhone application called DIGI Music Play by DiGi 🙂

Thumbs up to them!
 

Looks like Gaga found her music on the iPhone app too! 😀
 

Anyway, since lotsa people asked me how I did the look (don't know why you ask me actually, as I'm not a pro make up artist at all. Much much more talented people on YouTube you can learn from), I will show you briefly how I did it. 🙂
 

1. After your liquid foundation and lose powder, put on the closest you can to Lady Gaga's extravagant eye make up and blend the colours of your eyeshadow. I used Electric Blue and white shimmery powder on my upper lids and Purple/Dark Pink shades to feather them out and on the lower lids as well.
 

It takes lotsa time to blend it to a perfect finish. Darken as close to your lashlines as possible with black eyeliner.
 

Webcam pictures doesn't do justice for proper visual details, sorry 🙂
 

2. Draw her signature lighting bolt lightly, with the fine felt tip of your eyeliner brush first. You want to get the correct shape of the huge lighting bolt. Can't afford mistakes because that's gonna make you wipe off everything and start from scratch!
 

Yes messy house – usually like this after examinations 🙂
 

3. Take a step back and look at yourself further, in a bigger picture. You might notice some crooked edges of your lighting bolt, so refine and sharpen the edges to make it as straight and perfect as possible.
 

4. Darken your lighting bolt with a black liquid eyeliner.
 

5. Load up on your lashes. Curl them and apply plenty of mascara and falsies 🙂
 

6. Put on a dark pink/red lipstick + gloss (Not obvious on this webcam photo)
 

7. After putting on your wig cap, put on your blonde wig. Find the long straight ones with bangs in front.
 

Two options to zhng up your new long, blonde hair
 

a) Tie a hair bow
 

OR
 

b) Wear her signature huge headphones
 

8. Wrap the wires and cables of the headphones around your neck
 

9. Wear a pair of satin black gloves
 

10. Bring out your silver lighting bolt that you have prepared earlier. I made mine out of styrofoam and glittery silver fabric. You can use any material to make this bolt, cardboard, aluminium foil, silver paper or anything .
 

If you're too lazy, turn a store upside down and buy it. 😛
 

FINALLY, take another step back and camwhore!

What better way to look at your own photo to judge how you look? 🙂 You can always fix it if you spot any mistakes
 

Obviously, before you put on any make up, make sure you have on your long top (I used the one my best friend bought for me as a gift from UK) and your liquid black shiny leggings. Pair if all off with a pair of boots.
 

And I'm ready to adjourn! 🙂 On my way to Zouk now.
 

The Fame Monster, Lady Gaga has arrived 😀
 

OK SO HERE COMES THE SERIOUS PART.

Before I begin, lemme assure everyone that there is no offense meant to anyone and should anyone take offense, then please, don't get your panties tied up in knots or get sand in your boxers because of me. This is just a sincere account of how I felt last night.

The reason why I'm typing this is because I'm just so tired and fed up of answering everyone asking me BBM-ing, DM-ing, Whatsapp-ing and MSN-ing me regarding "how come I didn't win" the title of Best Dressed at the party last night.

That, and I also don't feel like talking about it anymore nor repeat myself.

Didn't win, didn't win la! Winning ain't everything.
 

I know you guys care and was in disbelief that's why you asked in the first place, but believe me… I was also just as shocked upon knowing.

No point telling me anymore that (Not my words. Quoting from everyone) I "should have won" or my "outfit was better" or how "all the efforts put into crazy dressing up gone to waste" or "how can a flamboyant look lose to something so minimal".. etc. I've heard all of that from everyone and well, what can I say?

The judges decision was final – whether or

not it was "always the smarter choice".

Allow me to clarify. My issue here is affirmatively not about my loss.

I am certainly not a sore loser and I acknowledge that in a contest, there is always a winner and losers

But here's where my dissatisfaction comes in –

HOW CAN 3 OTHER WELL DRESSED PEOPLE LOSE TO SOMEONE WHO DRESSED UP THE LEAST??

I'm sorry, but can you see the difference in the effort put in for each costume dress-ups?

It's ridiculous! The judges must've been shot in the eyeballs or have grime stuck on their cornea adversely affecting their vision.

Not intending to boast, but I'm giving you an honest account of what happened. The moment I walked into the Zouk, I was greeted with positive comments, non-stop requests for photo taking, cheers of support from people I don't even know and very nice encouraging compliments from everyone.

Nevermind the fact that I walked from my condo down to my car looking like that, attracting baffled stares.

Nevermind the fact that I somewhat shocked other drivers in the cars to my left and right while driving to the venue.

Nevermind the fact that I wasn't "allowed" into the premises until carpark attendants and security guards had their pictures taken of me.

NEVERMIND all that.

Because, as long as there is someone better dressed up than me, then all the above doesn't matter anymore as I would admit defeat and wave the white flag with pride. Clearly if someone had put more effort than I did, the better dressed up contestant deserves to win the Best Dressed prize 🙂

Fair and square.

Here's where my next issue comes in. What's the title category up for grabs here?

Best DRESSED.

Not Best Dance, not Most Simple Costume, not Best Performance, nor Best Impersonation

it's BEST DRESSED. In case you are visually disadvantaged like them, lemme reiterate.

BEST DRESSED. BEST DRESSED.  DRESSED.

DRESSED.

You tell me, which part of an "outfit" consisting of normal shoes, short black tights and a long sleeved black tee (probably taken from own wardrobe) apparently coming dressed as Lady Gaga can upstage that of fully dressed contestants comprising rented wigs, heavy character make up, fancy character accessories and complete costumes from head to toe?

What happened to BEST DRESSED??

Let me assert that this is nothing personal and that I have completely no resentment towards the girl at all. I don't even know her, have never heard of her and its entirely not her fault in this matter. She can wear anything she likes to any party – heck she can even come in stark naked or dress all covered up like Mother Theresa for all I care 🙂
 

Thing is, IF i had lost to the two other very well dressed contestants – Elvis Presley and Marilyn Manson, I would have no qualms whatsoever and will instead, whole-heartedly congratulate the rightful winner.

I must commend Elvis Presley for his very well thought of costume, hair and props..
 

And three cheers for Marilyn Manson for his very similar dressing and characteristics as well.
 

As you can see, these were the only 2 people I took pictures with (apart from emcee Adam Lambert below) because before the Best Dressed finalists were announced, I could see that they were my clear rivals in the contest right from the start.
 

And we were all good of a sport to take pictures with each other despite being friendly competitors. 🙂
 

I could see that they also went to great lengths to rent their costumes, wigs, dressed up from head to toe, prepared props, put on character make up as well, hence very much deserving of the Best Dressed prize too.

I left with a heavy, disappointed heart but a false smile on my face – to let everyone know that I'm okay.
 

But I'm actually not. Far from feeling okay.
 

At least I knew deep down I won fair and square in winning the hearts & attention of the crowd and certainly had a better chance of wining the Best Dressed prize. Thank you to those who told me so.
 

All your hugs telling me that you "thought I was going to win" or "I had a closer Lady Gaga look than she did" or "that I should have won" or that I "was obviously a better dressed Lady Gaga" tonight. (Again, not my words but other's).

It's these sincere and honest words (and fair judgement) from everyone that assured me that I was among the 3 stars that very night. Thank you, each and everyone of you. It certainly meant a lot to me 🙂 Hugs.

Oh and, upon exiting, I happened to bump into Elvis Presley and he told me of how unfair he felt the results were as well. My sentiments exactly. Honestly, even HE deserved a better chance at winning that prize with his whole fancy get-up.
 

Sigh. The results were unfair and you know it.

Whatever man, seriously. what can I say?

I hope you see where I'm coming from in this rather long rant. I just had to get it out. My mere intentions has never been t to cyber attack anyone but rather to voice my displeasure.

On another note, the prize possession did not influence me to write this as well. I'm not hard up for it at all. It was an iPhone for goodness sake. I don't want it and I don't need it. Nothing against iPhones as well, but longtime readers of my blog would know that I'm a hardcore RIM Blackberry fangirl. 
 

My issue raised here is just the unprofessionalism of the judging criteria.

If a category clearly states BEST DRESSED, it speaks for itself what criteria should be taken to judge
 

I may not be the best dancer in the world nor remotely anything close to the best singer on earth

But then again, that shouldn't have anything to do with a dress-up contest.

Let's say the finalists were narrowed down to 2 from the 4, if the judges were still undecided

then it's a good chance to let the crowd decide among the 2, also solely on that criteria

What the contestants do on stage should go under Best Impersonation or Best Performance

Whatever happened last night was beyond me. Ultimately, the judges decision was final. 

Oh and next time, remind me to clad myself in very minimal & simple dressing and perform a sexy dance like an good professional dancer to win the Best DRESSED prize. Because that seemed to work compared to…..
 

…. the exact replica and effort like this. Doesn't impress the judges! 🙂 🙂
 

Uh-huh. Makes TOTAL sense now, doesn't it?
 

Radical, if I do say so myself 🙂
 

After I left Penang to come back to the city KL, I guess the homies and I missed each other's crazy hangout moments, parties, late night suppers and random pillow talking.

SO THEY ALL DECIDED TO MAKE A ROAD TRIP DOWN TO SEEEEE MEEEEEE

and as you already know from this post, we drove up Genting Highlands too for some fun.

Minny snapped this piccie of bestie Joyce and I

All of them crashed at my hood for the night

Not wanting to miss out on the KL party scene, they wanted in. I then brought them to where else but Zouk KL? That's my fave haunt on most weekends

Us getting ready… I begged Christopher to lemme make him up! 😛
 

and bestie Joyce joined the fun with some shimmery lip gloss!

FHL

We gave him the mirror and ran away. 😛 Needless to say, he cursed my whole house down and disappeared into the bathroom to wash everything off! bwahahhaha.

En route to Zouk KL

So we got there and hit the Mainroom and Barsonic. Our poor boys weren't able to enter Phuture as they were a year short of 23 LOL

(actually can one lahhhhh.)

Caught you red-handed Carter!

Thought you said you didn't smoke? muahahhaahhahahaa

Double Iconography ring by Soak Republic. So pretty right! My fave

My babe Minny and I coincidentally in blue 😀

When Penangites storm Zouk KL
 

Headed back home pretty damn late into the night. Took turns taking showers and couldn't exactly get to sleep after that.

Before we knew it, dawn broke and we packed out bags and hit the road. No sleeeep tonighttttt!

After a one hour journey, we arrived Genting Highlands!

Pretty damn coincidental that all of us were in hoodies!

Back indoors for a while for some lunch. As expected, we got ripped off! How could an average plate of Zhap Fan cost me 12 bucks?? And a normal bowl of Bak Kut Teh costed Joyce and Chris 42 bucks. RAWWWRRRRRR welcome to Genting.

My favorite girls in the world!

loves

We were talking loosely about the future one fine day and sorta made a pact that we would be each others' bridesmaid on our Big Day. But the question remains, which one of us will end up married first? 😀 😀 Guess only Paul the Octopus knows the answer!

Mirror mirror on the wall

Which girl will be first walking down the aisle?
 

Back outside.. time for the Pirate Ship! No not the lame ass Pirate Train but the Pirate Ship! I could remember riding this years back and got awfully nauseous! Let's just see if i can stomach it again this year!

Us waiting for the loooooooooong queue

by the time we got closer, we saw this signage.

Looks like we're not tall enough 🙁 Woe!

Kidding! We rode it anyway.

This is bestie Joyce and I
 

BEFORE

DURING!!!

It's a wonder how my camera didn't get flung 100 meters up in the air!

Played more rides and waited for more…

I'm a certified BB Addict 🙂

Mine was pimped courtesy of Berry Addictions! Go get yours done if you love your BB too!

And we finally reached my favorite ride of all time! The Flying Coaster ala Spiderman!

It's my fave because this is the only ride that didn't give me the butt-away-from-seat feeling which I so despise

because this ride required its patrons to STAND during the rollercoastering

not sit 😀 But we loved it anyway.

Sadly this wasn't the kinda ride where you can sit over and over again like the rest of the rides. This ride costs 10 bucks each time we enter. and I wonder why! 🙁 Maybe it's privately owned.. bah humbug.

Walked around catching a breather in the chilly weather

A short Vlog I did!

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6T60u2_GA1E

😀 😀

okay where was I?

Yeah. the compulsory spot to take photos

Don't know why I never fail to do so with each visit to Genting!

Took a lil stroll around as some of the rides were closed for maintainence – namely the Corkscrew (damn!) and the Solero Shots. So we ended up in Jurassic Park look-a-like thingy and spotted this very STIM bird who was trying to keep his eyes open  :

Go sleep lah hou sum lei.

Don't need to entertain us one.

Mushroom land!

We kept exploring and arrived at the carnival part of the Outdoor Themepark.
 

You know how there would be fun fairs where simple games can be played to win big fluffy toys?

I had my eyes glued to this adorable sea horse!

Didn't exactly want to give those ring tosses a shot. Come ON! What are the odds your ring gets hooked onto that tiny stick? The probability of your bouncy tennis ball to nestle quietly into the pail 5 meters away from you are extremely slim anyway.

BUT!

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABQt1RjOxoE

IT'S SO FLUFFAAYYE WE'RE GONNA DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

We wanted it but Tannie tried…. tested…… and gave up LOL. Told you the odds were close to impossible. heh.
 

The one that the fat man with skinny pointy legs and equally pointy nose (sorry can't remember his name) aka stepdad managed to win for the adorable Agnes in the movie Despicable Me was just well…. VIOLENT. haha!

Saw lotsa people wearing this woolly hat thing too

Likewise, snowboots and winter jackets.

DOOOOOOD! IT REALLY ISN'T THAAAT COLD IN GENTING HIGHLANDS!

Minny and I even counted how many people were overdressed for winter that afternoon

Our Verdict : Malaysians have no where else to "winter dress" in Malaysia
 Genting is plausibly the best excuse to don pretty winter clothing

So as much as I would love to purchase this furry hat, I put it down in the end 🙁

But I will come back and buy it before I jet set to UK next year I swear!!!

*secretly hopes to go in time for winter*

Another Vlog!

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAjpnQBivts

😀 😀

Underground at the Rolling Thunder Mine Train

The queue was so long we decided to jump over the ledges and leave midway

Night fell and we kept ourselves (and pockets) busy at the Monte Carlo casino all night long! It's really amazing how time actually STOPS when you're in there, really. I had my rounds at Baccarat, French Boule, Roulette, Big & Small, Casino Wars and the rest.

Not gonna tell you how much I won (and lost) in total! 😛 Simply because.

Compulsory shot again

kthxbai! 😀
