2 Years @ KoreanAir

Yup, 5th of May - would be that official date I've came to Korea for training 2 years ago, together with Candice, Gyna, Soo, May, LeeChin and Yvonne.. (but then I found out later that our official date is 6th May, cos that's the date we really start our training, which was a Monday...)

Although today, there's only 3 of us left..

This year, we've decided to celebrate abit.. by celebrate we meant eating, by eating we meant the buffet at our Hyatt Hotel..

And you know what? 5th of May is also Korea's Children's Day, and its a government declared public holiday! Wtf right.... and cos of that they are having children's event everywhere, including the hotel! (and due to is a special event, their buffet price also more expensive than usual... not that they have new menus... you see why later..) Korean seniors advise us not to go out today, cos 200% there's gonna be a MASSIVE jam everywhere... sigh... kids... and rich parents...

Convenience store are seling Hello Kitty keychains and mini decos while bakeries are selling kids set cartoon breads and Hello Kitty cakes that are they are so damn adorable!! With free Hello Kitty ink stamp set summore!! Damn cute I tell you!! If im not flying to LA I surely buy ady!! (if I get home and they still have it, I damn sure buying it - for the sake of the ink stamps... -__-)


And cos 1st of May is Labour Day, followed by weekends, and then childrens day, (4 days total) KoreanAir made lots of $$.. all flights are FULL, cos parents will bring their childrens for holiday, and we are not talking local holiday, im talking international cross country holidays!!

Cos its seems that buying properties are expensive here, so parents rather use that cash to travel or for their children's education wtf.. how lucky kids are nowadays.. sigh... who said we are having economy crisis now??

Right... back to the buffet dinner..

Here's me,

And Gyna

Both of us were here in korea today.. We were thinking what to have for dinner and thought lets just go airport and have a look see but then we missed the bus, so we have to wait for the next bus and thought we'd walk over to the restaurant and check out its deco and some wine promotions they are having there..

Then we saw that they have buffet today (buffets normally on weekends only) and thought why not, since it's our 2 years here... we quickly got ourselves a reservation for two at 7pm, and lamely went upstairs for a quick change and makeup (eating buffet surely must dress up and be pretty!! :D also, cos obviously, we are gonna take lots of photos... -__-) I brought a pretty decent dress along this trip cos Im off duty back to KL after LA and have to wear a decent normal clothing during the flight....and I matched it with a pair of boots Im still keeping here cos no place to put it at home wtf -_- , and Gyna wore a top with her new skirt from MNG KLIA... lol...

We grab like lots of expensive food to eat, mainly their cold dish of seafoods, sashimis and meats, cos we are Malaysians mar, paid so much already of course must eat till our stomach cannot put in anymore lor... lol... :P

My sashimi set...


Gyna next to the fountain inside the restaurant...

and like I've said, it's decorated with plastic balls and helium balloons for the "special event"

Even the entrance also filled with adorable balloons...

Look at all those cute balloons and decos.. yes, that's what the restaurant meant "an extended dinner" cos their food are still the very same kind I had on my previous birthday last October... -__-

But I gave them kudos for their creativity with the balloons and deco.. Try getting Hilton KL to do something like that. huh..

Where they get the balloons leh? I also want them!!!!

Nice hor?

Me trying to put my legs up and show my boots but erm.. Gyna dint caught it lor.. I know.. tummy alert!! I was pretty full that time.. after dinner dy.. Next time, take picture BEFORE DINNER!!!

They even have popcorn stands and cotton candies!!

I had once had the urge to buy a mini cotton candy maker from an Australian website... Well luckily postage is too expensive... and I know mummy will KIIIILL me... -O.o-

They actually have kids activity here.. no wonder such a high chargers!

Gyna force this girl to take picture, but she dint know us and dint want to.. We actually expect her to be spontaneous, seeing how she dressed to the max in her outfit and running here and there...

-_-

Desserts.. Waffle topped with Strawberry Ice-cream...

Slurp...

Which flavor you wanna have??

Dunno what are these but they are not delicious anyway..

I know I know... the Sony camera IS NOT a DSLR!! well... imagine ma.. before I really getting mine.. :P

We stole balloons from the fountains! :D

heheh...

Cos cannot carry them home, so must camwhore kau-kau...

I mean I can find a way to deflate the chicken and bring home, but then I dun have the hydrogen gas to inflate it back also... -___-

Ah im senior already!! :D

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..

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-
