I went to Sunway Lagoon with Pui Mun, Wai Hoe, Shen Ee and Khai Wei on January 9th. Yeah, I know I'm kinda late with the posts these days but...I didn't even want to move an inch of my aching body (from all the "exercise") after I've reached home last night!!! Not to mention the mosquito's bites and slight sun burn I got.
We started playing in the amusement and water parks at around 11 in the morning and we only left for dinner when we were literally being shoo-ed away by the security/life guards of the park. In other words, we'd been playing for 7 hours straight! No kidding! We only rested for less than 20 minutes just to have a quick lunch.
I really missed the water slides, the "snake head" water roller coaster, and last but not least, the WAVE POOL!!! Man, we were playing like nuts in the water park. We just couldn't bare to walk away from the water. I even lost count of how many times we'd played on the water slides. And the wave pool is priceless. I had fun trying to get myself being washed back on shore by the waves XD
Our arms and legs were sore and kinda painful from climbing all the stairs that lead to the rides and slides (because we're playing them repeatingly) and also from carrying the heavy big-fat-yellow floats (in order to play on the water slides). Most of the fun was in water park, amusement park has more rides for the young children than for young adults EXCEPT for the "180+ degree swinging pirate ship" (seriously, it's a direct translation from Chinese, I don't know what it's called in English) and the short but SUPER terrifying roller coaster.
Pui Mun and I thought it would be fun to go for the "dry" roller coaster before going to the "snake head" water roller coaster. We, of course, knew it would be a little scary ('cause we'd ridden on it 4 years ago) but we never thought it could be THAT scary. We remembered we weren't that terrified the last time we rode it! Maybe we're getting old and we can't take the thrill?? XD Pui Mun was horrified until she couldn't scream at all, and me, I was just screaming like I was going to die...literally. It's all because of the double fall/drop/or whatever you call it. When the roller coaster flew down I-don't-know-how-many-metres the first time, we were already screaming like hell. But before we could recover from the fall, it immediately flew down again!!! The second fall was even longer and more terrifying than the first! It was during the second fall that Pui Mun actually went numb and petrified. I was sitting next to her screaming like a psycho. The feeling of losing the gravity and sorta floating during the falls, I can't quite describe it in words. It's like my heart had stopped and left my body, and I felt like I couldn't take it anymore and I would die from the fear. We vowed to NEVER EVER ride on that thing again. Now I know how Chin Yee felt and why she was screaming at me hysterically (during the ride) when I dragged her to ride on it with me 4 years ago. LOL~
The water roller coaster was A LOT less scary, of course, as the main point of the ride is to get splashed by water XD We rode 3 times straight! It still has the classic roller coaster super-speed falls. It also has two falls like the roller coaster before but we weren't terrified until our legs were shaking when we got off (I'm not kidding here). We actually enjoyed getting wet and the adrenaline rush from the super-speed falls.
We went for dinner at Full House in Sunway Pyramid before we went home. Oh, how I love the restaurant! It's decorated in all-white 19th century furnitures and accessories (it still have the decorations from Christmas, so it gave the feeling of a white Christmas =D, which I like) with a boutique at the back and a gift shop in the front. Not to mention the food is kinda nice and special, too.
I really had a fun and thrilling day with my friends. That's exactly what I want before I leave for Melbourne to further my studies. Love ya guys~ *muackzzz*
