A crazy world needs a crazy mind

Following the theme for this week's blog; craziness abound, a crazy world will need a crazy mind. And if they need someone to lead this world, i can nominate myself for that.

I have this crazy ability (and i'm not joking) on going about in life on a whim. Feel like bowling? Get the car keys and just go. Feel like playing the arcades? get the car keys and just go. Feel like dying? Don't be an idiot and just calm down.

And so, to prove this crazy ability of mine, i had 3 unnecessary trips (okay, one was semi-unnecessary...) to Genting Highlands (again) and Pantai Morib (Morib beach). The Genting Higlands trip was done with housemates Hani and Soldierboy this time around. You can see from their faces that the drive up and down Genting scared them off, or was it the driver that scared them? Oh well. We didn't plan on anything except to admire the view of KL at night, so had long walks and did some crazy experiments to kill off time as we enjoy the cool air.

The trip to Morib was done on two separate cases; one because Aziim wanted to go there for an interview and needed a co-pilot to decode the stupidly drawn map. The other was (again) on a whim, but only Soldierboy tagged along this time. On, the trip with Aziim, we managed to catch the sunset and by God, it was beautiful. A city slicker like me could do with more of this. On the other hand, the next visit was done purely since i wanted to see Morib at night... and apart from the refreshing silence, nothing special was to be seen. Maybe because it was 2AM at that time... i dunno, just a hunch.

So, what next? Well, i'm planning on visiting Bagan Lalang this coming Friday night, but... who knows. Maybe i might end up at Cameron Higlands instead. Talk about being crazy~

A view at Pantai Morib. I can get used to this...

The guy on the right caught this small stingray (ikan pari daa...) before we left Morib

Another view inside First World Plaza, and no that's not the real KLCC at the back there...

3 stooges. The good (middle), bad (right) and just plain dumb (left). Sorry Hani...

The official bvc100 mark left at Morib at 3AM...

Bored with a place to go...

Got bored last night. After setting out with a mate to find a suitable present for another mate who will be having his kenduri kahwin next week at his house(he got married this recent Friday. Congrats Maru!), i tried to kill some time at our favourite lepak spot. Funnily enough, we all (another mate joined us) opened the topic of "What to do?".
In the end, after shoving some typical ideas aside, we agreed to go on a fun-drive. Where? Genting Highlands, a personal favourite drive. On Aoi-chan, all i can say is that the new rims are really good. It helped me in the corners as i can now adjust the steering angle more correctly due to the way that the suspension now modulates without having to crash all of the time (very technical... i'm sure some of you doesn't understand a single word). Anyhow, the absense of that front lip spoiler does crate a tremendous difference. Even the mates can tell that the car understeers more in the faster corners and the front bobs quite easily.
As for the place, well, it is Genting we're talking about here. And of course it was cold. Especially when there's the killer combination of wind and thick fog. The visibility was so poor that at one point, i can't even read the number plate of a car... about 5meters in front of me. One advice though: Don't go there without thick clothing, especially in last night's condition. Not that i can't bear it though~~~
So, here are some pics we took at Genting. Unfortunately, the pda's camera was so useless at night, i can only manage to take pics at illumiated places, like the First World Hotel.

Enjoy!

The sticker that was on the box of the present. We couldn't leave it there before it was wrapped, couldn't we?

First World Hotel... you can see the thick fog even from here.

... and the other mate; Amir.

Info counter at First World Hotel. The dialog:

bvc100: "Excuse me. Can i have you guys close the roads so that i can go down faster without the other slower drivers obstructing me?"

person behind counter: "??????"

Short Genting trip

Had a quick trip to Genting a few days ago. The weather wasn't that good, but a trip is a trip. Not that you 'trip' in any way though...

Anyway, rather than me blabber about the trip, let the photos tell you the story... so, enjoy~

Day 1 of the trip, just departed from the bottom station of the Genting Skyway.

Halfway through the journey in the 'gondola'. The smoothness of the ride and journey time will depend on the weather condition

Upon arrival at the upper station

Inside the First World Plaza. Most of the new indoor rides can be found here...

A quick stop at the McD outlet for dinner. Can't believe the price is almost doubled up here

Heading down after 1st day of trip. The fog sets in for the night...

The fog was so thick, we can't even see the ground. This was taken from our hotel room, on the 17th floor of Awana Genting

A nice buffet breakfast before the 2nd day's trip. Today i'll be driving upwards instead of taking the Skyway

The lovely view of the golf course from my table...

Totally forgot to take pictures. This was taken halfway through the 2nd day's trip. The colourful building at the back is the newly built First World Hotel

Frustration due to the lack of speed of one of the rides...

... and the no smoking sign telling us not to smoke whilst riding it...

... but the ride itself, being an 'antique car', puffed out it's own smoke all the way

Had this taken in the First World Plaza. It was either he was posing for the camera, or he lost his balance for an instant...

A rare moment of calm for Aoi-chan at the end of the trip. Photo taken at a mosque close to Awana Genting. Aoi-chan proved to be good for an uphill blast, and a riot for going downhill very very fast...
