My Cruise Trip

Hello! I'm back from my 3 Days 2 Nights cruise! Well, luckily it was such a short trip. I was bored 70% of my time due to the fact that I am not a gambler and..

Jackpot is such a STUPID GAME in which BRAINLESS people can pick up in 3 seconds flat!

I don understand the lure behind the game. Just press the computer button and wait for the computer technician/casino owner to decide the percentage of your win. So dumb...

And so, I spent most of my time wondering alone in the ship. There are nothing much to play for someone alone. But thanks to my 1G memory stick, Ha!, I spent a lot of my waking moments taking photographs.

Presenting you the ship, Starcruise Virgo!

It boasts of 13 stories with an ultra nice swimming pool.

We can get to eat for free at three of the restaurants, the Chinese restaurant, The Pavillion

Usually after our meals, we will go to the buffet restaurant, The Mediterranean Restaurant, for our desserts. Well, since it’s free... No doubt, we ate alot during these three days.

The western restaurant, Bella Vista We only visited here once since my relatives don’t favour western food. Pity.


Whenever I walked down this corrider, I was reminded of Titanic, the movie. Not a nice thought aboard the ship.
Tada! My room 09007!

There are three beds in the room with one that was attached to the wall and can be pulled down should the need arises. I shared the room with my mum and one of my cousins and I immediately aimed for the makeshift bed. *Laughs* An unique experience, though I could not sleep for the first night due to the fear of tumbling down. Look at my mum. *Laughs* I told her I'm doing Quality Control, QC, for the bed.

When I first boarded the ship, there are mascots lurking around, trying to grab hold of us for a photo shoot. They will then charge around $12 for a photograph! Robbery in broad daylight! Therefore, we decided beforehand to sneak pass them without taking any photographs. Due to my inexperience, I was caught! A penguin mascot grabbed hold of my shoulders in a tight grip and pulled down my off shoulder top before the camera flashed! STUPID PERVERTIC PENGUIN! I would like to have kicked his groin but it will be a futile attempt because the man is wearing such a thick costume. Let’s just hope his sperm count decrease due to the heat accumulated around that area. Yea? Anyway, I managed sneakily to take a shot of the photograph. *Cheers*

This trip brought us to Redang Island, the beach made popular by the movie, Summer MoMo or something like that. Long before we reached the island, I can already see the bottom of the sea! The water is that clear! Nice right, the view?

I was taking photographs when I spotted this rock I thought I could climb. Unfortunately, I cut my finger on some barnacles before i could even stepped on it! The cut is quite deep, I nearly thought I need stitches because the blood just won’t stop flowing. So, heck!, I wash my wound with the sea water. Surprisingly, it did not hurt much and my blood ceased to flow. Thank goodness! Ya, and that is the stupid piece of rock. I told my mum to include the whole rock in the picture but I guessed she must have detested the rock so much she decided to take only a small part of it. *Giggles*

I like this photo!

They have bars set up which sell not only alcohol but coconuts and ice kachang!

On the last day, I went to watch the sunrise with my mum. At first, I thought there will be a huge crowd of people on the sun deck but I was so wrong. There are only a few of us. It is so saddening. People can stay up late pressing buttons on the jackpot machines but will not wake up early to enjoy something as beautiful as a sunrise. The world is changing.





I love this picture best! It was taken before sunrise and the cresent is still in the sky. So nice!

The blogger doesn't allow me to upload any more pictures already! Do they have a limit for the number of photos uploaded in a day?? Nevermind, I'll upload my narcisstic photos another time. Wuahahaha!
