One day (6th December 2005), a boy named jinny went up to Genting with Johnny Prawnie at 7 pm to meet up with their friends Benjo B, CiBaiVinDra, Chucolate, Memelia, MelP, Cindeyennie, Jin sista and Malinda Chong CB who already went up earlier in the day. Jinny and John left late because they had things to do earlier on, thats why they could only afford to catch the last bus from KL Sentral up to Genting. The bus ride was dark and quite enjoyable.
At 8 pm, the bus ferrying Jinny and Johnny arrived at the cablecar station. They both had to wait patiently for the elevator which was packed with old people with batik shirts and impatient gamblers. Soon enough, jinny and johnny got on a cablecar with an indonesian couple because the empty cablecar before had "Under Test" posted on the door-screen. The ride up was a smooth and dark one, except for the smell of fag that filled the whole cable car. Jinny felt like strangling the indon man and john also had the thought of it.
After arriving at Highlands Hotel, Jinny and Johnny felt hungry, so they both took a place in Starbucks outside the hotel and waited for Benjo and Vindra to come meet up. Jinny ordered a chicken finger sandwich and Nantucket punch while johnny went to the toilet. Not long after, Benjo and Vindra came and benjo took one slice of jinny's chicken finger sandwich while john took another. Whereas vindra and everyone else drank half of jinny's Nantucket punch. But well, sharing IS caring. After a light dinner, benjo and vindra led jinny and johnny to the hotel room on the 10th floor which is a premium floor. The room they stayed in were linked rooms, which means 2 rooms linked together by a door in the middle, one for the boys, one for the girls. And almost every door of the toilet cant be locked. Jinny was flabbergasted and anticipated much fun from this trip waiting to happen.
Jinny, johnny, benjo and vindra met up with the girls in the arcade, and then they too decided to spend money in the arcade. While the girls went to play some mild, kindergarten games like picture viewer or whatever the name was. After that, everyone went to Kbox, which was a small booth with 2 chairs, a tv screen and a uncovered ventilation fan inside. Like a portable Karaoke Box, Jinny went into the booth with Jin, Johnny and chucs and sang his heart out. Boy was he sweating. After so much fun, everyone went camwhoring at the gigantic christmas tree.
Back at the hotel room at about 1 am, everyone washed up, took their baths, played music all over the place and ate instant noodles. Jinny brought his creative speakers from his computer and linked it up with his mp3 player which played some really boring songs. Benjo's mp3 player played funny christmas songs like "12 Adult Days of Christmas" which proudly emphasises on the word "5 Mother F*ckers". Although not serious, jinny threatened to sleep in the bathtub because it was more cooling. In the end, Jin sista complained there was a cockroach in the bathtub, and Jinny thanked god he wasn't serious about sleeping in the tub. Later on, while Malinda went off to bed, everyone played Taboo and had so much fun guessing. Jin sista had a card that says the word "VIBRATE" and she asked "What do girls use to satisfy themselves?", ALMOST everyone answered "vibrator" and then jin sista told us to cancel the last part so it became "vibrate". How clever of her. At around 4 am, after much Taboo, johnny and jin sista joined malinda in bed while the rest went down to the car park for a walk. In the cold breeze and the company of friends singing and dancing at 4 am, Jinny felt that the trip couldn't get any better and realised that the best part might not have come yet. At 5 am, everyone went to sleep, no one cared about the boy girl room policy, melP went to sleep with her mum, malinda and jin sista in the next room while jinny, johnny, benjo, vindra, chucs, melia and yennie slept in one room.
9 pm, and everyone was awoken except lazy yennie who tried so hard to tug into some more sleep. Melia pulled her blanket away, melP sat on her, but to no avail, nothing worked. Lazy yennie woke up at 9.30 when everyone else woke up at 9. After brushing up and bathing, everyone got dressed up for the theme park. Jinny searched for green apples so he didnt have to brush his teeth but he could only find red ones. After getting the tickets, brunch was served in a luxury dining restaurant called The Olive. It was Jinny's first time to a luxury dining restaurant where you sit in sofas and huge armchairs and where the food is prepared artistically and costs a bomb. Thanks to melP's mum, everything was paid for.
It started to drizzle as soon as jinny and friends stepped into the outdoor theme park after their satisfying brunch. The first ride they sat was the crazy teacup and everyone came out of it walking aimlessly. Then it started to rain heavily, so everyone ran into the lame exhibition showboat with the interesting room of mirrors on the top floor. Still, it was lame. When the damn rain wouldn't stop, everyone went back into the arcade and played a few rounds of daytona and time crisis. Awhile later, jinny and friends went back out to the theme park and found that the rain had finally stopped, jinny wanted to ride the super tobbogan although aware that he's 3 kg overweight but the super tobbogan wasnt open then. So he pulled everyone over to the swing ride, the one that goes in circles. As it was about to reach their turns, it started to rain again and they quickly ran to shade and waited. While waiting, malinda rounded everyone up to play the hand game where only primary kids are only known to even think about it. At 5 pm, the rain finally subsided and jinny and friends were finally able to sit the swing ride which was the 2nd ride of the day after 4 hours wait. Later, vindra pulled everyone over to the go-kart line and realised that it wasn't open because part of the track was flooded, so they went to dinosaur land instead. An hour of lining up and the whole dinosaur land ride on the boat was a waste of precious time. The only word to describe it was LAME. Jinny felt that the whole outdoor theme park was a waste of money especially when it rains, and he's quite sure everyone thought this way too. But in the end, everyone got their money's worth at the swing ride again. They sat over and over and over again. Which was really really amusing and fun.
Jinny and friends went for a 2 hour dinner at Be a Star, which is smiliar to Red Box, somewhere where you go in, sing your heart out to the karaoke machine and have people serve you meals and tidbits for a reasonable price. After dinner, everyone took a nice walk to First World Hotel where the arcade and indoor theme park is. Jinny, benjo, melP, melia and yennie went to Starbucks to grab some coffee to keep them awake for the whole night. Jinny ordered a Caramel Machiatto which was his first time drinking espresso. Everyone met up at the escalator before moving on to the outdoor car-park outside Highlands Hotel. Then Jinny and benjo decided to play hide and seek and in the end, everyone agreed on playing hide and seek. Jinny felt like a kid again, playing hide and seek with grown up 16-ers in a car park. It was probably the most fun part of the whole trip for jinny. No, not probably, THE MOST fun part of the trip.
Back at the hotel room, everyone bugged lazy yennie to go shower because she hadn't showered in 24 hours. After washing and cleaning up, jinny suggested a game called current, a game where you hold hands and you start squeezing the hands of the person next to you to pass the current and the person in the middle has to guess who's having the current. To make things better, it was played in the dark. Malinda told lame stories while playing the game which got everyone laughing. At about 4 am, melP's mum called and asked if a few guys could go escort her back to the hotel room from the casino and jinny, johnny, benjo, vindra, melP, melia, chucs and yennie set off to get melP's mum without hesitation, only to find her waiting for the elevator when they got down to the lobby. The coffee and espresso didnt work and everyone slept at 5.
11 am was the wake up call and the check-out time was postponed from 12 pm to 1 pm. Johnny and vindra volunteered to take the cablecar down to buy 3.30pm bus tickets back to KL Sentral. While the rest cleared up and lazed around the hotel room watching The Grudge and camwhoring. Everyone took the cablecar down to the bus station at 3. MelP, melia and yennie followed because melP's mum had some important things to settle. The bus driver was a grumpy idiotic asshole who doesnt put passengers first but his ego on his list. And jinny and friends could've just lost their lives on that very fateful bus ride that day. Thankfully, for all the dear readers out there, they reached KL Sentral shaken, but in one piece and are more than thankful for it. A group photo was taken and they refreshed themselves and finished up the last few megabytes of their memory cards by camwhoring at McDs.
DEFINATELY, A TRIP TO REMEMBER.
THE END!
