Jolin's Concert at Genting!!!

Woke up at 7am in the morning to get ready and have some DimSum with my mom before she dropped me off at the Genting Van shop in town. Yes, I am heading to Genting once again on my own...

I'm starting to get the hang of travelling alone... Not forgetting my trip to Singapore in December  ALONE! It's like a single travel trip every month since October. FML. Forever Alone...

Arrived Genting at about 11am, checked into my room with a view, which didn't give me a difference since I wasn't going to spend my whole trip sulking in the room anyway... Then walked down to the theme park area and purchased my ticket.

Little did I know that I would get a 10% off for being a member at RWGenting! RM45 instead of RM50. I was hesitant at first whether to go today or tomorrow, but since the sky looked clear for today, I'd rather not risk the chance of getting rain tomorrow.

Walked into the theme park taking pictures along the way.

Walked to the First Roller Coaster ride which was under maintainence. It used to be my usual first ride thing since it's like a warm up. Moved on to the swing ride which spins you around at a fast speed... I have to admit I am getting a little old for it already as I felt dizzy after getting off!

Walked around and head on to the Ferris Wheel. The main point was just to snap more photos of the surroundings.

If there's one thing I hate, it would be people cutting the queue. If you do not like the queue, go and purchase the express ticket! Don't go cutting the queue just because someone was dreaming ahead and u pretending like they won't notice the person in front is so much ahead already! The 3 boys were so horrible. I wanted to tell them off but since the guy that cut in front of didn't say anything, I couldn't neither, since I was still ahead of them. Just like MTV World Stage, I got pictures of the culprits. BEWARE!!! THE QUEUE CUTTING POLICE IS HERE!!!

Next up was Dinosaur Land!!! I wanted to take the ride but it was stated there that I would have to wait for more than an hour, so I left and headed for the Corkscrew ride instead. It is still by far the best ride I have taken in Genting.

After, I went to the Pirate ship and was daring enough to sit way at the back. The impact was really something! It was really fun! Like the adrenalin rush and all... WEE!!! I really felt like a kid today...

Continued walking on to find the Flying Dragon ride but to no avail. Instead, I found a few places I have never seen or visited before! Those places allowed me to take more pictures and also camwhored by using self-timer! Talk about the Road Less Travelled...

Finally gave up and walked out the Exit, where I asked the guy where the Flying Dragon ride was. Turns out, the ride was all the way inside, indoors!  I queued up for my ride, noticing it was an indoor ride and I should be paying extra RM8 for it but since no one in front of me was saying anything about their pass neither, I decided to remain silent. The ride was quite nice but the cornerings were a little rough though. I hit myself against the metal bars once in a while as it cornered and I got some bruises from it too.... I have got a video from the ride!!! Risky but what the heck...

Walked to the 4D movie area and was stupid enough to ask the girl if I had to pay. Should have remained silent like the Dragon Ride. She would have just let me pass but I was so stupid to let her check my OUTDOOR pass...

Was feeling lazy and tired from the few hours of lining up and walking. Took a few pictures before going back to the hotel and snoozed til 6pm.

Took a shower, headed down to First World Lobby and walked outdoors towards the Arena of Stars. Here's some pictures of the outdoor theme park as I walked past.

I know it was a little early as i arrived there at about 7.30pm. Jolin's concert didn't start until 8.30pm!!! I was just feeling lazy and sat at my seat until it started.

The concert started with a Malaysian Drum group.
Photobucket

The concert was the bomb!!! She danced whole night, interacted a lot with the audience, sang all the songs I was familiar with and ended the concert with the one song I last performed in public at a beach party years ago!!! How I wanted to just jump on stage and dance with her right there and then!!! It brought back so much memories... Time for some pictures and videos!!!

Besides her, there were also some local Malaysian performers on stage tonight. There was a group of dancers called "Tren". Not forgetting the ballet dancer of the night, Elaine Chiam from Project Elementz!!! Please enjoy the videos!!!


Not long after, the concert ended. How I wished it would go on til forever. Jolin is so hot in person and she really has the stamina to dance and sing at the same time!!! I wonder where she gets all that energy!!!

The last song she sang brought back a lot of memories. My dance crew and I performed that particular song at a Beach Party years ago in Ipoh. That was our biggest, most happening public performance we have done together. I just wanted to hop on the stage with her at that very moment!!!

After dropping off everything in my room, I walked down to the casino to play with some slots. I won RM30 and learnt to run. Cashed out the money and got myself my free Starbucks drink and also croissant for tomorrow's breakfast before I headed the sack. One must learn not to be greedy but be thankful for what you have got. Right?
