Hong Kong Trip 15th to 21st June 09 - Day 4

On the fourth day, I decided to meet up with my friend, Matrix. I knew him through Seal Online when I was just 17 and he is the first net friend that I met who is from other country. He was having exam on that morning so I went to the Happy Valley while waiting for him.


It is one of the most famous racecourse in the world and I sneaked into the building to take pictures as it was under renovation during that period.


In the afternoon, we finally arrived in Disneyland after we had our lunch.



Immediately we rushed to the Adventureland to catch The Festival of the Lion King. Only manage to take a few shots of The Lion King because it keep on moving....


Then, we rode on a raft to reach the Tarzan's Tree House !!
There are books around the area to tell you more about Tarzan...


Next up, we played Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters in Tommorrowland. It's a shooting game which you need to shoot as many Evil Emperor Zurg as possible along the ride to determine your rank in the space.


We were among the earliest to queue for the hottest musical show at the Disney's Storybook Theater - The Golden Mickey !! It's really entertaining as you can see a lot of the Disney's characters performing on stage, including Toy Story, Lilo & Stitch, Mulan, The Little Mermaid, Beauty & The Beast...

And of course...Mickey and his friends !

Fireworks started blasting to the sky at the Sleeping Beauty Castle at 8pm.

That's the last show of the day and we left after we had our dinner.
It's a memorable day with Matrix and
thanks for his guide whenever I need information about Hong Kong.
Hopefully we will meet again someday in the future...

Nice to meet you !

When ISA is being implemented into EPL

1) Ikut Suka Alan - Sir Alex Ferguson has been handed two matches suspension and being fined for 20,000 pounds for saying that the referee, Alan Wiley is "unfit' during Manchester United's 2-2 draw game with Sunderland.

2) Ikut Suka Andre - Sir Alex Ferguson continues to criticize the quality of the referees in EPL following Manchester United's 0-2 defeat against Liverpool in Anfield. He doubted that the referee, Andre Marriner has the required experience in taking charge of such a big match when he sent Nemanja Vidic off but chose to keep his cards when Jamie Carragher had fouled on Michael Owen.

3) Ikut Suka Atkinson - Recently, Six Alex Ferguson again, accused Martin Atkinson for being "absolutely ridiculous" when he awarded Chelsea the free-kick that led to their winner against Man United.

Honestly I am not a big fan of Manchester United but I do respect Sir Alex Ferguson for having the guts to publicly criticizing the quality of the referees in EPL. He is not trying to offend any of the referee but to bring up an important issue in the games. He is quite unlucky as he was being warned and suspended by FA and now Alan Miley might sue him for defamation.

Similarly, this is happening in some of the countries. Under such political system, you cannot criticize the ruling party for being incapable in doing their jobs and you cannot question the ruling party when they are giving advantage to the other group of people. In the end, those people who made wrong decisions can get away from being punished.

Sports and politics are not supposed to be entertaining through creating controversial topics, right?

Jalan Mati in Cheras

Just transferred the photos that I have taken using my Xperia X1 into my laptop and found this picture that I took few months back when I was on my way to fetch my friend near Bandar Sri Permaisuri in Cheras.

Turn left to Jalan Mati ? Jalan Buntu?

It's not really clear because my handphone is weak in taking photo in night mode.

Hong Kong Trip 15th to 21st June 09 - Day 3

Visited Ocean Park on the 3rd day of our trip. Had the chance to experience the living environment of a panda, it was damn cold inside ~


We spent half day there but I didn't play all the rides ! Haha, how coward I am...


Went Chung Kee Dessert after our dinner, and I conclude that the desserts in Hong Kong are not cold at all.

After that, we headed down to Temple Street.


I went for tarot to ask about my love...and apparently, it's very accurate because the master's prediction has already comes true !

McDWin contest? McD Wins...

I believe everyone in Singapore (at least NTU) is crazy about the Monopoly Singapore event by McDonald. With a purchase of Regular Extra Value Meal , you can get 4 game labels (8 labels for up-sized with extra $0.50) and stand a chance to win prizes from McDonald, Courts, Jetstar and the grand prize $50,000 cash !!


People tends to order an up-sized meal even though they are not hungry and in the end, your body will up-sized too!

One of the attractive prizes is
50x of 32GB Touchscreen MP3 Player worth over $420 each.


Looks like an iPod Touch? But why they don't just replace the string of words with "32GB Apple iPod Touch"? My friend & I planned to find it out from the official site and realized that "Apple" is not listed in the prize partners.

Hopefully they won't give out something like this in the end...
Besides targeting that "MP3 Player", my final aim - of course the $50,000. To win it, you need to collect 1 Marina Bay and 1 Sentosa Cove Game Label. Lots of people have got the Marina Bay label, but there is only ONE Sentosa Cove label for this game in the whole country. Knowing that the end of this event is on 2nd Dec, I don't think they will release the label by now...

So, we can predict the final winner for this game will be...

Ronald !!~~
