This week went by pretty quick , can't believe it's Saturday already ! My plans were kinda ruined today . From volunteering at another SCS event to going back to work to nothing .
Putting that aside , my dear childhood friend , Marcus and I took a short 3 day 2 nights trip up to Genting on Monday . I've known him almost all my life but it was our first overseas trip together ! So glad Í made it back alive ! I've always been afraid to sit on such long bus rides especially in Malaysia ! & When the bus comes down from Genting that's the scariest ! This trip was different because it was non peak period so there weren't a lot of children buzzing and squeezing their way around us and we didn't have much to do except to eat , sleep , play and gamble . Haha . It was my first time gambling in the casino (errr, scary at first but it got better, hahah!) You could say it was a pretty slow and relax trip . Just what I needed away from work ! It was so relaxed that I didn't take much pictures ! Hahah !
It was also my first time catching a movie in Malaysia ! We caught The Zookeeper which was quite hilarious and definitely worth the money ! After the conversion , its only about 5 bucks ! And their seats can be comparable to the ones inSingapore - cushioned and comfortable ! Another first time for me was the Ripley's , Believe It Or Not Museum . So glad Marcus persuaded me in ! Ánd it's less than 10SGD after conversion ! They had a lot of interesting facts inside and I took time to read every single one of them ! We spent a whole 2 hours there ! I learnt that back in the days , there was a thing called the Chastity Belt and some Gossip Monger thing which I thought was ridiculous . I kinda pity women those days , I wonder how they survived wearing the chastity belt . It was said that the husbands used it on their wives while they went out for war or afraid that their wives would commit an affair . And then there were the tools that were used on people in prison to extort a confession and also the fertility statues . And how people invented funny and interesting looking cars from all over the world . And many more interesting stuffs ... like interesting people who could do funny stuffs . Hahaha .
But all in all , it was a good trip ! We minimized our loss in the casino by almost half so at the end of the day , I only lost about 41SGD . And it was also the first trip which I hardly bought any stuffs except for my facial products . But I meant like clothes and what not . . . So I didn't have any extra bagagge to bring back ! Hahah ! Anyway there aren't anything much to shop up in Genting anyway .
Alright . So I'm now in his office - meant to surprise him with Maccas but I got caught in the act while on the way here . Hahah !
Anyway , have a good weekend peeps !
P.S It's nice to sit here next to you while you're working and I'm doing my thing . You look so serious while working and I secretly like watching you from the corner of my eye . Hehehe !
