In case you'all didn't know, for the past 3 days I have been missing online. Reason was that I was dragged persuaded by my mom to go over, taking a holiday in good o' Malaysia as we attend my cousin's wedding at 30th December. But we'll get to that on Day 2.
On the previous day, I was on a movie marathron and was reluctant to sleep. Thinking that I could sleep on the coach, I continued watching all the way to 6am in the morning and woke my family up.
Obviously, it was the most stupid thing to do, since I'm down with heatiness and throat inflammation.
So.... Take cab, take coach, sleep. Wake up at Customs, sleep. Wake up at some pitstop, sleep.
Yeah, that was kinda the summary of the 7 hour bus ride there.
Checked in to the First World Hotel, quite decent though small for a hotel room. After lunch together, my mom was gone. Straight into the casino, never to be seen again. Even my dad went in less than her. Incredible.

Anyways, my bro and I ain't a fan of amusement rides, so for all those who know Genting, its gonna be a damn boring day for us.
..
Damnit, I'm getting sick of recounting such a shitty holiday like this. Let me just put it in point form with interesting facts.
..
1. The First World Plaza is incredible, I mean, I never imagined to be seeing a Ferris Wheel, Water Ride, and a Roller Coaster in a Shopping Mall before. There's even a bumper car ground and Snowworld. Completely Astounding.
Comes complete with a Christmas Tree =D
2. The pool center in the place is another thing. Incredibly, pool and billards were at prices of RM 12 only. That's dirt cheap for a place like Genting Highlands.
That is, until you take the balls and realize that there's a gaping big hole the size of your palm on the center of the 6-Feet pool table.
I never played a Single game of pool in Malaysia.
3. The bowling alley was actually slightly better. Other than Termite infested wooden bowling balls, and wood peeling off the bowling lanes. It was worth the freaking RM8 per game and RM3 for the shoe rental.
4. Was thinking of doing shopping for gifts for the people at home. And while I was touring the whole place, I discovered something incredible.
There were no shops selling Malaysian Mechandise(Welcome to Malaysia Themed Items).
Yah, its one of the most popular tourist attractions in the whole of Malaysia and there's no mechandise. Lols.
Ended up with Chewing gums to give away, sorry all T_T.
5. Tried out the LAN center cause my brother wanted to play. The price? RM 15 per hour. Yes, its roughly SG$7 to play LAN for an hour in Genting. With lousy Logitech Keyboards too >.<"'.
6. Ate Kenny Rogers for the first time, nice =D, anyone knows of a retail in Singapore in the West Area? =D
7. If you'all remembered, I mentioned that my mom entered the casino once we left our items in the hotel right? She was in there from 4.30pm to 11pm, then 11.30pm to 4am.
In case you'all are thinking, yes, the 30 mins was lunch time.
Yeah, at 11pm in the morning, cause she forgot about the time.
8. Well, my advice is, if you ain't in for the rides and you can't get into the casino. Dun go to Genting. =)
