My trip down from Genting...

Woke up at 11am this morning just because I had to check out. If only I could check out after 3pm without any extra charges. I had trouble sleeping last night, waking up every two hours or so. Perhaps coffee really is kicking into my mind finally. I never really had a problem with coffee keeping me up but I guess age has gotten a toll on me?

Took a long hot shower and packed up before dragging my heavy ass luggage down to the lobby. I had a choice to either drag the luggage with me everywhere I went (since I planned not to head to the Casino today anyway) or leave it at the luggage area in the lobby. Since I had quite a lot of valuables in my bag, I decided not to risk it and just took it along to window shop around First World...

Saw a Nike outlet store and true enough the things in there were quite cheap! However, as tempted as I was to buy a pair of shoes and 2 tees, I reminded myself that I had to save up for my trip to Singapore in December. I have already overspent through the month of November and who knows? I might just need to budget in my Singapore trip. :(

It felt like forever for the time to pass. I walked in and out of First World, feeling tired. Then, I came up with the idea that there would be a lot to see at the Skyway to the other side! Which was what I remembered... I walked to the Skyway and it was CLOSED for MAINTENANCE! I paid for Skyway and the only way down to the bus was via the free bis services. I don't get why I needed to pay for the Skyway in the first place then!

Walked to the bus terminal at First World and took a bus down. Guess what? There was nothing there! The floors above were all closed! I was stuck there since 3pm. I walked up and down again and even the policeman asked me :"Ah Moi, pergi mana? Jalan sini sana masuk keluar aje?" I smiled and told him I was just too bored and was there too early...

I hopped on the bus at 4pm, which was 2 hours before my actual bus since it wasn't full and the person who took my ticket allowed me to. Therefore, I arrived back to KL early at 5pm.

There is one thing I need to complain about. That's the bus driver! He seemed to be in a rush when I got on the bus. I nearly tripped on my jacket and fell. He drove a little then stopped since there were still people rushing up to the bus. What's his problem? He just got to the station and rushed us all into the bus and not wait til all of us got seated! The two old folks behind me nearly fell too as they were still walking on the aisle! How long would it take to wait for them to be seated? It was him that was late. So why are we paying the price for having to rush up the bus?

As I got back to 1Utama, I dragged my luggage and walked home. I was so exhausted as I got home that I KO'ed right after I hit the bed and got up only at about 8 something! I was so tired I even skipped dinner without realizing...

It was a very interesting single trip up to Genting for a concert. I will definitely do it again if I get to watch JJ Lin or Missy Elliott perhaps? HEHE^^
