HAPPY CNYYY 2008!!!

yayyy its once again,
the time of the year where you'll see red everywhere!
its not only in singapore,
but in malaysia as well.
seriously, i had no idea they took cny so seriously.
everywhere here is red red and more red!
andd with all those oriental stuff,
makes me feel like i'm in some chinese country instead.

anyways,
did not go to school today cos i left for m'sia early in the morning,
REALLY early in the morning, at 6am.
fell asleep in the car cos i hardly slept the night before,
so time flew by andd by the time i knew it,
we were there!

the weather here is surprisingly good.
finally someplace that is unaffected by global warming! (hopefully)
spent the day shopppinggg!
most of the things are almost the same,
but it still feels more shiok to buy things here
although u can find the exact same thing back in singapore.

shopped for 3 hours straight,
when me and my sisters finally decided we had enough,
and headed back to the hotel.
my beloved lappy did the honour of keeping me occupied all the way till dinner!

dinner was at some chinese restaurant,
happy valley or something lidat.
i liked the loh hayy andd veggies alot,
as well as the chinese tea,
which is one of the best i've ever tasted.
other than tht, the fish was...icky, as usual.
i mean, it was swimming happily in the tank like 20 mins ago,
and the next min, its being served on some hotplate,
awaiting its fate of ending up in my family member's stomach.
i really dun understand how one can bring themself to eat the fish when
its practically STARING at u in the face.

ohwell, enough about fishes.
its kinda freaking me out.
after dinner, me&my sisters went to kbox for a while.
the kbox here is really not worth it if ur planning to sing quite a number of songs,
since its S$1 per song.
andd they haven't updated the system in like 98239427498374792 years.
so we stuck to the oldies like westlife, m2m,
JJlin's mu nai yi, jolin's shuo ai nii, and BU DE BU AI(pan wei bo)

sang all the way till 11+,
denn we had to head down cos they were gonna have firecrackers and fireworks to usher in the new year.
the place was damn packed,
worse than GSS okays.
but luckily we managed to find a spot where it was surprisingly empty.
camwhored abit andd denn the firecrackers went off.
firecrackers are cool,
but after 3 rows of firecrackers,
i was alr hoping it would end soon.
but since the auspicious number is 8,
had to go through 5 more rows of firecrackers,
my poor ear drums.

after which, the fireworks came.
fireworks are the bestest invention okay!
the next time u guys wanna view fireworks,
dun even consider marina bay's NDP fireworks.
those are nothing compared to what they have in Genting.
even disneyland's one can't compare lahs.
although disneyland's fireworks are really pretty,
since they even have one in the shape of mickey mouse,
they are so far away, its hardly worth watching.

the fireworks are best in genting because no matter where you're standing,
as long as you're out in the open,
the minute the fireworks go off,
you practically have to tilt your head 90degrees up to watch it.
yeah, its directly OVERHEAD.
andd its beautiful, andd magical.
jus staring at it for a few minutes leaves you mesmerised and denn
you will begin to wonder if ur dreaming or not.

denn this year they had this special addition where this fireworks like zoomed across the sky at an alarming fast speed.
i can't think of anything else that looks like them but tadpoles.
they ARE really the same shape.
andd they make this cute whizzing sound.
definitely my favourite fireworks =D
they also had one which was so bright
that it felt like daytime once again.

only damper was the fog which covered nearly 1/4 of the fireworks.
if the sky had been clear, it would have been much more beautiful.

my mom said since its CNY,
i should make it memorable by not sleeping throughout the night.
so here i am at starbucks, blogging.
hardly anyone is online now,
everyone's probably too busy playing mahjong.
hahahs i wanna play too!

OOH yeah.
guess wad show is up in the box office in Genting alr?
KUNG FU DUNK!
i'm not sure if its out in singapore yet,
but i'm gonna watch it tmr!
i'm hoping its as good as secret. =DD

also, there used to be this attraction here called haunted adventure
which i swore i would never step into.
its gone now, replaced by a new attraction called Van Helsing Live!
andd i wanna go in!
but looks scaryy from the outside.
anyways, its SOOOO much better than haunted adventure,
at least i know there's a storyline for Van Helsing
andd tht i'm not going in to scare the crap outta myself for nothing.

ookays, as much as i wanna blog more,
i have nothing else to say alr.
hope everyone has a GREAT CNY.
delicious reunion dinner.
loads of ang paos.
win more money through mahjong and card games.
andd may luck and prosperity follow you guys throughout the year!
wuahahaha i make sucha good spokesperson for CNY.
