One day in Genting

I had a great day in Genting today!

The most memorable experience today would be the Space Shot ride. The greatest challenge to my courage ever. Can't believe that I got talked into it. Me, who finds cable car intimidating. According to the Genting website, it's 185 feet tall, and it comes down at a speed of 67km/ hour. Felt like I wanted to jump off my seat when it was about to start, which was already too late, because you can't unfasten the strap once it's locked. Saw the person in charge pressed the button in front of me, counting down to hell. Slowly, it got pumped up into the air. Opened my eyes for a while, closed when it climbed even higher. Peeked for a second near the top though. Then, it stopped at the top. I shut my eyes tightly, took a deep breath, braced myself for the drop. It came. It was crazy. Indescribable. I felt like I left my heart up there. Totally screamed all my organs out. The drop was so fast I got lifted off my seat, so only my hands were holding on tightly to the straps, shaking. And half way screaming, my voice broke. I couldn't even scream. (No wonder I didn't hear anyone screaming in the previous ride.) Then it came to the first lowest level and got pumped up again, this time much lower than the first one. I finally found my voice back and continued screaming. The same thing happened a few times, (pardon me for unable to keep track) then it's over. Thank god.

My first time in the Casino as well. Went in there, had two cups of free Milo, did one round of the Casino, couldn't figure out how to play with all those machines, and came out.

I'm too sleepy to go on any further. So this is it.
