Back From Genting
by barffie
Just came back from Genting with Sap last night…
Summary > Genting = Family trips with kids only.
Other combos, need not apply.
It’s crowded.
Noisy.
Crowded.
Not too good a place for relaxation.
Not into gambling, but we went ahead and explored e casinos…
Got around the blackjack tables…
Learnt the malu-ating way, on e rules of betting…
Learnt tt ppl actually shout “PICTURE! PICTURE!” when they want a
K, Q, or J to their Aces.
Or tt they shout “PICTURE! PICTURE!” when they want the banker to “burst” by having 10 pts on top of their original pts.
And the dealers uses a special hand gesture,
ie flipping the palms outwards whenever they deal some cards,
or whenever they counted and displayed the chips on e table.
HMM! We learn something new everyday!
We won RM40…. Not too bad… Can feed us for one good meal 
Things tt I feel BLEAH abt the trip or the place:
1. Queuing for 3 hrs for cable car ride up from Awana.
2. Awana Skyway station and cable car itself are badly-maintained.
3. Taking lousy Queue numbers for checking in.
4. A rushed and unromantic V Day dinner. 
*It’s not the prob w the company for the night*
5. More queuing: for amusement rides, for food, for everything.
6. Teeny weeny room, not too well maintained, dirty windows, tiny shower stall, toilet cubicle… bla bla bla… But it was alright. Considering I’ve stayed at worse ones.
7. Slow service and ppl jumping queues.
8. Not eligible for Go-Kart, I’m 2cm too short. GODDAMN!
9. Sore throat, coughing leading to not being able to eat other things.
10. Left my fave undies n fave pair of yoga pants behind! DAMN!
But I still enjoyed the trip, why?
Cos it’s with Sap ler… … :”>
Anyway he fell sick, got a little fever n stuff on day 1…
Poor thing… But at least he slept n rested more than he did in SG.
More than willing to take care of him.
But he refused Panadol n stuff… Glad he got well 
All in all… I would prefer to go somewhere either for the shopping,
the sun+sand+sea (ie Maldives or Ibiza or wherever), the culture, the scenery, the architecture (ie Europe or Chicago or watsoever)…
Rather than for casinos and amusement rides.
So places like Disneyland and Las Vegas are out for me I guess…
