CNY part 3: The Casino  

Posted by y. 源

Yeap! The casino! Went to Genting Highlands with my family. It started to become misty and getting worse as we drove up to the peak. Very very windy too. At least 30knots, I think. Visibility less than 50metres.

Parkings were 99% full. Spent like 30minutes to find a place to park. Lucky!

Hotels were fully packed anyway. Arcade already closed. So my siblings decided to stay at MacD while my parents and I went to casino.

Fyi, Genting has quite a few of casinos. 5 I think. The first one I went was located in First World Hotel. The biggest one of all, my dad said.

Bloody hell. It was really huge! Goddamn! Even if you are not interested in gambling, you should also come and get the feel! The slots machines, oh man, I think there were like thousands of them. And not to mention the table games. Blackjack, pokers, baccarat, pontoon, roulette, etc.

I didn't gamble. What, you think I lied? ;p

Only my dad. Not me. Not my mum. I walked around by myself, went to few tables and check out how they played.

The slot machines here are very much like arcades. They don't use coins. Instead, they use 'debit cards'. I saw an uncle with 210bucks loaded card playing that game. Guess how much he won in the end after 10minutes game?

160cents.

Blackjack table seems to favour the bankers quite alot too.


Chinese has a saying, bet 10times, lose 9times.

Just a glance at all the looks in the casino, only 10% of the faces looked happy and satisfied (and kept gambling). 85% looked sad but hopeful that they will win the next round. The rest? Hopeless. Grumpy.

My dad? He's in the 10% league. Shot down "8 tigers" in an hour. Lucky for him.
Tigers mean thousands. When we say: Go up the mountain to hunt for tigers, it means go to c
asino to win $$
.


I only visited one third of the casinos. Gonna conquer all of them next time! ;)

CNY part two: The fun!

Eat.

Collect angpau.

Eat.

Gamble.

Eat.

That was what I did days back. I gained few kilos, that's for sure. Gambling? Eim..I lost 30bucks on the second day of CNY and then stopped playing already. Haha.

Big fat red packets this year. The biggest one after 21 years 11months and 10days of living on Planet Earth.

Wahahahhahhahhah!!

CNY part 1: The trip.  

Posted by y. 源

Wth. CNY ended so fast. Back in LGK. And going for flying in 2 hours time. But before that...

updates!


The trip back to MLK was not a pleasant one, again.

First, the ticketing machines. There were at least 10 of them installed but only two working. Hundreds of people queing up in rows of two. What was supposed to be a 5-minutes queue ended up to be 20minutes. Lovely.

Second, the LRT cars. Not enough at all, really. The first trip it came at 2035, it was already packed full with 'sardines'. Only twenty people or so came out but hundreds wanted to go in. I was pushed out.
A girl who managed to squeeze in also came out 10 seconds later cuz she couldn't stand the smell of the men surrounding her.
This is also one of the problems for females using this kinda sardine-alike train service. Sexual harassment is unavoidable in this condition. Oh yeah, pick-pocket too.

Third, punctuality. Need to elaborate on this? Better not.

Anyway, bus to MLK was scheduled on 2100hours. I reached Pasar Seni at time 2055. With the guitar over my left shoulder, a sling bag over my right shoulder, a laptop bag on my back, one hand luggage, I ran as fast as I could towards the bus station only to find the bus already gone. Sh*t.

I saw a guy shouting "kl jb kl jb, kl melaka kl melaka" and asked him when is the next trip to mlk.

"Bus kat sane tu. Baru je jalan! Mari!" He helped me carry my luggage and both of us ran to the bus which was like 80m away.

I hopped into the bus and paid 15bux. Sweaty and tired. I slept like a pig minutes later. Reached home at midnight already.


What a day.

CNY leave..  

Posted by y. 源

School only approved leave from 24th to 29th. I have booked ticket to go to KUL on 23rd evening and coming back here on 29th night.

Now the only problem is bus tickets. Afraid that the flight might be delayed and that means spend overnight in the bus station.

Going to jb? Maybe.



I am back in LGK.
