Turned 21 on the 21st

Woohoo! An adult! =P Heck I still act like a child sometimes...

I had a fun time for the whole day, well some family outing sort of. The last time we had that kind of outing was quite a long time ago... (okay, it was 2 weeks).

We went to the hot springs in Hulu Tamu, which is somewhere near Genting Highlands. Water there was really HOT (well duh!), I have yet to soak my feet to the water for a long period of time unlike my dad.

Let's see, it's my first time to the Batu Caves (yea, surprising). We climbed 272 steps to the top of the cave and it is not easy feat. Wonder why we went there the first place.

My mom told me that she went there before years ago, and things are not the same as it used to. There are a lot of stalls, shops, kiosks selling snacks, souvenirs and loads of stuff there to cater the tourists there now, compared to just a flight of stairs leading to the cave and some temples. There are also monkeys who are joining in the visiting crowd too. =)

To cap it off, there is a simple but nice birthday cake, streams of facebook scrawlings on my wall and receiving SMSes from my friends.

Flying to Bangkok

For those who fly often, this flying experience thing is nothing new to you. For me this is the first time flying. It's a really cool experience; and an exiciting one too.
First of all, i have to check in EXTREMELY EARLY for the flight scheduled. the flight is at 10.40 and i have to start moving at about 6.30am! After all the procedures are done, there's still time to hangout for a while.
LCCT entrance
A little busy cafe at the airport. Expensive as hell but heck i was hungry for anything.

30 minutes before take-off, it's time to board the plane. You know what, people already lining up at the front gate for ages to board the plane, it sort of reminds me of people queuing up for buses and people scrambling in to board the flights. The best part is the moment we actually take off. It's a great view from above. =)

Land at Bangkok, everyone has to take a bus designated for the flight to the airport. Funny thing is there are no seats in the bus (maybe it is to cater more people in one trip), so everyone has to stand throughout the journey. Fair enough...


See you guys soon for more updates!
