A day to Everland... again!

11.43pm Sydney

It was all because of the st***d Australia customs.. they want me to declare what I bring in... and then CONFISCATE it... T____T

I brought milo and nescafe they take.. (cos that time milk in China got some problem remember?)

I bring maggi cup noodle with curry and they said got chicken in it (which it doesnt) and took them away also... (ok that was Atlanta)..

So decided not to bring a single drop of food to Sydney... >(

And guess what?

I just shopped AUD110 worth of groceries from the supermarket downstairs.. T___T

What I bought probably can last for 2 days with me non stop munching and chewing in the room.. I promised myself to not go out (ya right, wanted to go Blue Mountain but no kaki... ).... yes I still spent that much.. T___T

What I got was just food and snacks! no clothes or "unnesseceries" stuff!!

a box of kellogg's cornflakes AUD 5.79
3x cup noodles AUD 3
Fresh lite milk AUD 1.54
3 litre mineral water AUD 2.80 (cos the tap water here tasted funny.. )
Seedless grapes 1kg AUD 6.93
Longan 1.132kg AUD 9 (ok i know its expensive but i I LOVE longans!!)
TimTams AUD 2.89 (ok this is useles.. i tot just incase i needed more snacks)
Tuna snack pack AUD 1.69
Slimming energy bars AUD 2.60 (ok i never tried this before.. I thought I'll buy one to try and see do I feel full longer)
Chocolate milk AUD 2.69
Fruity Jelly x2 AUD 1.79 (I need snacks!)
Snack pack AUD 1.99
Crinkle Doritos Mini AUD 1.29
Mars mini pack AUD 3.99

Cadbury bars x4 AUD14 (to bring home)
No bake cake x2 AUD 10 (no need bake cake.. just freeze and eat.. nice what.. bringing it home to try)
A home magazine AUD 5.95 (just wanna read some homey stuff ;] )
Foot Insole AUD 2.24 (for my work shoe.. its gettin really uncomfy.. )

see.. just like that!! RM330!! OMG!! T____T

By the way.. I got some free snack by spending that much.. Since I bought so much stuff.. the cashier gave me lots of bags.. and so after I put my change back into my bag, he was already keying in another cutomer's item.. and put it next to my pile of stuff.. I thought it was my pile and took EVERYTHING back into my room.. I only unpacked everything after changing into my pjs, and found out I have an extra bag with Doritos and it's Salsa dips. a pack of cashew nuts, and a big bottle of pineapple juice (which I dont drink)..

I thought the cashier keyed in the wrong items for me but after checking my receipt.. it wasnt.. :D And since I've changed into my pjs, im too bothered to bring it back to the supermarket.. which.. yeah.. I got free Doritos.. :P

anyway... by the time im home and you notice im fat.. just keep quiet ok.. ;)

So.. some Everland pictures.. like I said, nothing much to snap cos main purpose is just to ride thrilling rides.. and since I already took so much last year with Soo.. I dint bother to take again this time..

FYI Everland is located a slightly outskirt from Seoul.. And its one of Korea's big theme park.. Been there last year with Soo..

This time, Olivia drove me there.. together with her bf and her cousin.. FYI, Olivia is a Korean crew who once worked in Singapore Airlines.. so she speaks fluent Singlish, and we flew together in my last Frankfurt trip.. so we kinda clicked as she was so excited to meet a Malaysian crew wtf~ we keep in touch via MSN, and since both of us were in Seoul that day, we decided to go out.. ;)

some random pic i snapped..


This is Olivia...

Her Cousin bought us those ears.. lol!

do I look cute? or my shirt is cuter? :P

I love this picture!

This is Brian and Olivia's bf.

I forgot the bf name.. cos he dont have an english name and couldnt speak english at all wtf.

Brian lived in NewZealand for 10 years so he can speak fluent English...

We forced both of them to wear the bunny ears and take pictures.. lol ^_^

We were queueing for this:

Someting called Rock n Roll?

One of the thrilling rides.. Looks like a claw thingy that keep twisting us.. :D

F.U.N

Passed by Animal Safari and went in to look see...

Some minature fox which I forgot the name.. but it's so tiny, it looks like Chi Hua Hua from far..

Korean Squirrel

Which is not vegetarian.. but omnivor.. eats meat and fruits too..

Tinest ape species..

Baby Gibbon!!

Here's the ride I dint take last year.. T Express..

Cos the queue was 40 minutes and Soo dint wanna play with me..

This time it was a weekday and summer was about to over so no queue..

T Express is the biggest and longest roller coaster in Asia made of wood..

So they said.. *shrugs*

The best part was the decending about 90 degree down..

Oh I found this in Youtube:

Probably the best vid among what they have.. ;)

S.Y.I.O.K

Ferris wheel..

They wanna ride but in the end decided not to cos kinda slow moving and long queue..

right.. so that's all from Everland.. :)

sien liow.. not going again for at least a few years.. o.O

Six Flag Park Magic Mountain

Wonder if any of you guys out there played this game before?

Used to play this games while I was still in high school.. maybe in secondary 2 or 3.. where we need to attend a theme park, or an empty land and turn it into a wacky roller coaster theme park with objectives to achive in a certain amount of time or certain amount of budget..

like this...

or this...

In Roller Coaster Tycoon 2, the roller coaster design/ideas came from Six Flags Park. Or something like that.. I forgot.. At first I dint know that Six Flag Parks are REAL roller coaster theme parks in the US, but anyway I did google it then and knew it existed and it is in Chicago.. So I was aiming to go there one day.. (went Chicago a few times but was winter and its not open)

Anyway, back to the game, it was fun you know.. building your own roller coaster and controlling them.. and keep imagining that one day we can ride on the roller coaster we built ourselves.. ;D

Although later on, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 was out, with 3D and we can have camere view of how it feels riding our own roller coaster... but it felt EVEN better when I actually visited Six Flag Park Magic Mountain in LA. (yes later on I also found they have a few of these parks in USA and other countries..)

So here goes.. after all the crapping.. My OWN Six Flag Park Adventure.. :D

Yee Peeeee!!

Once again I planned to stay in the room, but this time my junior roommate from Hong Kong who happens to have an ex-schoolmate here decided to go out. At first she planned to go Disneyland, or Universal Studio, which I've been to before so I dint wanna go but her friend decided to bring her to Six Flags instead so I unshamelessly (I reclined to accompany her to go Disneyland and Univesal Studio which means if her friend cant make it she is going alone but when I heard she's going to Six Flags... ) asked if I could join along.. how unshamelessly Alison is.. sigh..

reaching soon!!





From far already damn excited...






whoa!!








ok this random thingy from buzz lighter got his picture taken cos it keep knocking on me when the car turns.. but its kinda cute so nevermind.. trying to kiss me wtf.. lol..

There! see this vid (recorded by someone else... there are loads of it in YouTube!)

The Goliath stone writing so big, can fit into the camera..

Wanted to try this game but also another 2 hours or queue.. so.. pass!!

there! better! without me in it..

And this Superman - a self-launched rollercoaster

See what I recorded:

See what I found in You Tube:



Cool eh?

No dint get to ride that either. damn lots of people man.. Must choose the best ride among n such a short time there...

Cannot see much but some that's Swashbuckler - like the spinning thing in our Genting..

Why I can remember its name and not Lanny's friend? Cos I still have their map!!! :(

And this is for kids only - tweety like thing that spins kids around in cages.. lol..

Me with Tazmania.. Why must pictures I take with mascot have to be SHARED with other kids? Like spidey-man in Universal Studios??? ergh!

A funny mascot..

And a naughty girl hit him at the back so he came running after her.. But that girl ran into the cafe where he's too big to enter.. lol.. should have recorded it.. :D

And finally,

Tatsu..

The best game ever..

and its an upside down ride!!

Worth the 2 hours queue..

See vid:

This guy went on all the roller coasters and record the point of view - for fun or for their podcast, I dunno but I get to show them here.. heheh..

Well, after that game its kinda dark and since Lanny and me have flights tomorrow morning and the journey back takes 1 hour.. we have to end our trip..

Yes, only 3 rides for the whole 8 hours in there.. each ride need to queue for 2 hours, (and each rides finishes in 2 minutes!) the rest were used to locate the ride, lunch, toilet breaks and walking.. -__-

Although I have no problem coming back here again this whole year, cos I got myself a ticket pass for 1 year! :D They were having promotions for spring/summer USD 59.9 for a year pass.. or USD59.9 for a day pass.. of course we choosed the year pass..

-i love six flags-
