Welcome! You've stumbled upon the page of an almost-nineteen year old that's currently undergoing one of her "Who Am I? What Am I Doing Here?" phases. She also happens to have a huge love for words, bright pictures and music, and constantly craves sweet, iced tea drinks. Buy her a cuppa, perhaps?

The Trip To Langkawi,PART TWO..

The Trip To Langkawi, PART TWO.

******************
It's not Streamyx's fault, folks.
It's that bloody earthquake in Taiwan.
So blame MotherNature, honey, don't blame Streamyx.
*******************
Anyway,

After we got out of UnderwaterWorld, we stopped at their duty free shop to buy alcohol to consume later that night take back to our families.
KaiSin wanted to buy chocolates, and Andrew was carrying the basket, so....

He started grabbing every chocolate box that he saw on the shelf, just to shock KaiSin.
We kept laughing softly, not to give the game away, and Joan actually pointed to the basket, and went, "WAH! WHY SO MANY!"
We had to shush her to continue.

After purchasing the goods;
Uncle Michael and MrRaymond told us we would have lunch in the adjacent Thai/Chinese restaurant that i'd already been to before.
Seriously, if you stop in Langkawi, PLEASE DO NOTT EVARRRRRRRR eat there.
The prawns weren't fresh, and the clams had a fishy-ish taste and had rocks in them.
The only thing nice was the white rice; and that was lumpy too.
All that shit for sixteen bucks.
What a fucking waste.

We then were ferried off to our hotel, Hotel Helang.
Judging from it's a four star hotel, it was kinda nice.
It could also beat whatever hotel in Genting.
Flat.
And the space was huuuuuumongous.

The view from the fifth floor.
My lousy camera couldn't capture it, but the sun's rays sort of made the pool glitter.
Damn tantalizing.
Made me wanna yank open the window and jump off.

One huuuge queen sized bed for one person.
Aaaahhh, blissful sleep without kicking someone in the middle of the night.

Naishhhh..
I shared a room with KaPeng, and we kept the room quite neat!
We showered, took naps, watched the Doha games diving preliminaries, cheered for Bryan Nickson and some all-stick-and-bones china dude.

We went down to the lobby around six thirty to go for dinner.
Wahaha, Aneh.
I so used this picture!
By the way, you look like a vampire.
And GUESS WHAT WE ATE FOR DINNER?

The original, the traditional.......
I'M LOVIN' IT ~~~ At Mc.Donaldssss~
Yep.
Pathetic.

After trawling Langkawi town for a decent and cheap place to eat, we finally settled on fast food, and jumped at the chance to eat McDonalds .
Terence .. er.... emo-ed abit didn't really like it.

After that, we went back to town to trawl the clothes and duty-free shops.
I bought a small bottle of wine and a large limited edition can of Sapporo beer for dad.
I made a bet with Terence that there would be a poster of Cristiano Ronaldo in the Nike shop, and he went;
"Wait - I see first if I wanna bet."
Then he got up and walked into the Nike shop.
"Chey...Bloody cheater."
He came back, with a face - "I don't wanna bet liao."
:D
CristianoRonaldo psychic power!!!

KaiSin was going from shop to shop, comparing prices, and ALL THE TOBLERONE prices were more cheaper than the one she'd bought at UnderwaterWorld.

After that, we went back to Kevin's and TianYi's room to watch a part of Titanic, and then we popped open a bottle of wine , while those who couldn't really drink drank Kampai talked for awhile then returned to our rooms to sleep.

God, sweet sweet sleep.
The bed seemed so soft, and the blanket was so downy and warm!!!
I want a goose-down pillow.
I always seem to sleep better when i'm sleeping in a hotel, maybe because of the pillow?
They ALWAYS have goose-down pillows.

We were late for breakfast the next morning, but still managed to grab a few bites.
The turkey ham and the mashed potatoes were SCRUMPTIOUS!!

Went island hopping the next day. :)
Postcard material!

The Dayang Tasik Bunting lake.
Me, Kaisin and YeeLin shared a paddle boat.
Paddled so hard, my thighs were dying by the end of the day.

The cleanest island everrrr!!
We also saw sea eagles, but the pictures are in Kev's camera.

I see an overexcited Dollar and Pounds at the backk...

We went swimming, too!

Then when we'd gone back to the hotel to shower (KaPeng was using the shower, and so was Suzanne) , me and Joan looked outside at the scenery, and my camera was with Andrew, so....

Uh oh, Andrew, hm hm~~ Shaky hands!

Randomness :P

The next picture....
Well.....
I shouldn't show it to you.......
Welllllllllll...........
It's seriously gruesome....

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Here it is! *click*


We had our dinner at the same plaza we had the night before, but not at McDonalds.
We had it at some bistro which served cheap western food and also asian food.
I had a plate of char koay teow, and the serving seemed to be for two.
I couldn't finish half of it.

After dinner, we all went shopping!!!
Bought a little bottle of Spring Orchid perfume from the BodyShop.
My favourite smelllll :)

And we camwhored inside BodyGlove, which had terrific sales, but none of their t-shirts were appealing to me.


Oh, yeah.
We also made a trip back to the Zon DutyFree shop in UnderwaterWorld to buy more drinks :)

Miniature Absolut Vodkas to bring home for decoration.
What, 40% alcohol!!!!!!
No drinking :P
:( I want my Absolut Vodka Citron backkkkk *sniffles*
Curse you hotel staff who took it !

I didn't touch anything but Kampai.
I hate alcoholic drinks, especially wine.
Bleh.

Well... some of us got a little wasted.

And a few of us stayed up all night to care for them.
Resulting in all of us camping in a circle out in the corridor. :)

Back at the bus terminal.

Yeah, that's all :)
Finally, I just wanted to say,
5Gamma has been one big whirlwind for me.
Everything seems to have passed in a blur.
I wished we'd all were closer when we were in form Four.
:) But I shall treasure these memories forever!

I know I shan't see some of you for ever, or maybe for a long time, but I still will think about you, still will treasure you. :)

Remember, SRIKL is no more, but 5 Gamma is for ever!!!

*cue Enrique Iglesias's Escape*

Mwahhhhs >3
