Growing Up

Was looking through our Genting pictures when something struck me.

All of us, every single one of us, look so young, so carefree, and so devastatingly happy.

We are like these naïve youngsters about to step into the adult world, fresh out of the cocoon our parents have spun around us to protect us. We are so brave, so daring, and so sure of ourselves. We are ready to take on the world.

But somewhere along the journey to our dreams, we might falter, we might trip, we might fall. We might find that we are not as phenomenal as we thought we were.

We might fail.

We will pick ourselves up after every fall, of course, but nothing will ever be the same again. Nothing ever is. We will lose the proud courage, the reckless daring, the chin-up confidence.

The lost of innocence, this gradual process that people call "growing up" is truly, truly heartbreaking.

Years down the road, will we still remember the days we spent staring absentmindedly at lecturers in class? Will we still laugh at the same jokes? Will we still worry over the trivial matters that bothered us in college days? Will we still be able to "get" each other as well as we used to? Will we still recognise the person we used to be?

And most importantly, one day when we are old and wise, will we ever see that heartbreakingly innocent smile on our faces again?

Genting

So, a whole bunch of us (to be exact - 12) went up to Genting last Tuesday... 3 days 2 nights... and Genting is still as cold as it was... Three quarter of us couldn't sleep on the first night. We were on the 22nd floor of Ria (highest floor) and the crappy windows cannot be close securedly. You can hear ghostly swooshes of wind through every small slit in the apartment =) Maybe that was why it was so cold. 9 girls squeezed in one room of 3 queen size bed and 1 single bed. The remaining 3 guys? Well, they had the other room of 2 queen size bed.

First day. Went up to Genting. Checked-in. Went for lunch at Marry Brown (check out Ken Hui's imitation of Marry Brown's mascot in multiply). Then, headed on to the first world themepark. Went for Bumper Car (twice!), indoor Euro Express roller coaster (twice!), Venice Gondola (with weird singing gondolier statue at the back), Rio Float (hanging loose in the air around the plaza), Ferris Wheel, 4D Motion Master (err... weird) and Arcade. Dinner. Walked back to apartment. At night, the girls stayed up having girl-talks and playing games while the guys slept.

Second day. Very very cold. Only had 4 hours of sleep. Cup noodles and snacks as breakfast/lunch. Reason? We were saving space for a costly dinner. After that, we had different groups. Some headed on to the Outdoor Themepark while the rest departed to the First World Plaza. At 5, all of us met up and went for a buffet dinner at Coffee Terrace in Genting Hotel for RM48.30 each. All of us ate till we were too tired to do so. Stayed there till 9.30pm! Went back, watched shows and I'm not sure what happened later on. I slept... but i'm pretty sure the girls had another crazy night of chit-chatting. Perhaps the guys did too.

Third day. Nothing much. Got chased out of the apartment at 12 by the cleaners. Hurriedly packed everything (Hope we didn't leave anything behind though). Left Genting at 3.

Discoveries/trivia during the trip :-

• You should carry an earplug if you were to sit next to Duo-Ying on a rollercoaster ride. Heck, not just rollercoasters, even the extra slow moving Ferris Wheel! She screams for no apparent reason... "Just for the fun of it."


• Teddy lies to the very end even though he's bluffing in the game of 'Bluff'.


• Ken Hui can sleep right about anywhere. (Hey, I think everyone one of us that brought a camera has at least 2 pictures of you sleeping somewhere not on the bed)


• Chern has lots and lots of facial expression... especially when she eats.


• You'd be amazed that when tiredness kicks in, even if there's a group of people playing noisy card games next to you or the tv is on, you can just sleep in (cough.. cough.. Wenyi, Jo, Teng...)


• Don't trust Teng when she says she's feeling energetic and not an itsy bit of sleepiness at all. Guess who's the person that slept first on the couch, while the rest of us were watching Ugly Betty? <.<


• Alvina is not quite a bus person. Almost threw up during the journey back down. Hmm, maybe if I did, I would have done it on the person sleeping peacefully next to me --> Duo-Ying. Haha, no... she got a plastic for me beforehand =)


• Darren is also not a bus person. Had headaches too.


• It is possible to lose in a game of Chor Tai Tee (Big2) even if u have all the 2s.


• The girls can really start talking at night. (Rachel, Wenyi, Debbie, Cath, etc etc)


• Some of us love to camwhore.


• Largest bag award goes to Teddy. Smallest bag award goes to Teng.


• What else did i leave out?

Overall, it was fun. But it'd be even better if the whole class could have made it. Here's some pics. Check out the rest in the multiply photo blog. Cheerios!

*Scroll down for added post pls*

Heya all, sorry for the delay. I actually made an account at a photo hosting website for us last year, but somehow, I can no longer sign in. So, here's a new one with SOME pics already uploaded.

http://s187.photobucket.com/albums/x150/PM4_Taylors/

Everyone, all of you with pics out there... do upload the pics to the site (pls?). Uploading may take a while but be patient, all right? Same username and password--> *password removed*

If perhaps you think we should use a different photo hosting site with more perks, do leave a message. I don't mind switching it. At the mean time, please upload the pics, k? (hey, lots of you with cameras... right?) Any pics at all, be it from prom night, Sanjay's leaving-us-to-cruise-the-sky-celebration, random ones taken in college or just any time or place. UPLOAD!! I'm sure everyone else would like to have a glimpse of all you handsome, pretty, beautiful, gorgeous and definitely not to forget, cute (as some of you would kill me if I don't say this) people of PM4. Thank you so much all! Have fun!

Smile =)

p.s. Being young and innocent is one thing, but being obsessively obsessed with yourself is another. Anyone here feeling like Peter Pan (i.e. you don't want to grow up)?

::EDIT NO. 1::
Apparently, photobucket is too slow due to its millions of users. So, we are setting up a multiply account... more user-friendly and there's formatting for web viewing options. any objections? Uploading is in progress.

::EDIT NO. 2::
Multiply site is up and running. So, you know what to do. *wink*
