-CountDown 2009-

Here we backed again at the peak of Genting Highlands

to bid goodbye for 2008 and welcome a brand new year 2009

wishing for an astonishing and ‘smooth-going’ New Year ahead…

Our initial plan is to “eat as much as you can” at Terrace Coffee.

However, alas it’s quite costly at the first place and only limit us to dine til 9.30pm.

Too bad… because it’s almost half past 8 when we arrived at the City of Enterainment.

Thus we headed to Good Friends Restaurant instead....

Honestly, the food is not a real “kick” for me. They’re just an ordinary oriental Chinese food. Nothing truly special! A very common typical Chinese restaurant! If to honour this restaurant with STARS...

I would only give them 3 STARS...

After the meal, we gathered at outdoor of Highlands Hotel for

KeeWah’s advanced Birthday celebration. His birthday supposed to be 3rd Jan but what to do? Since all of us "busy" and "not available" on that day, so had an earlier celebration special for him.

The atmosphere is so ‘mighty cold’ out there...

For his birthday, we bought combination of cakes and tarts (The Mocha Choc, Tiramisu, Cheese Cakes and fruits and strawbery Tarts)

We had to use or hand to withstand the strong wind and ensured the candles keep burning!

We thought of buying a whole cake but very unfortunate because we could only purchase the whole cake if we make an order one day before the event.

But after all, I still think that it's quite fun having a birthday celebration at the Peak, in addition of 'freezing' weather. We found a bench somewhere in front of Highland Hotel it's time for "Birthday Song". Then as usual, the time to make a wish (or wishes)...

Next after blowing the candle... of course itls the moment to ... I dunno specifically what to call that.

But just don't contaminate the cake is good enough... "wink" Luckily he didn't destroy the cake and managed to keep the cake best in shape or else I bet nobody would dare to eat it...

"ShekShir 'hand-fed' KeeWah with strawberry Tart"

So after all the "must-do" birthday protocol...we had some photo session with Birthday Boy...What could I say? ShekShir really love to hold Tarts.

Maybe thats her Fave gua..

Worry others will eat her share...

I again Guessed only.... After that, apa tunggu lagi?

We makan the cakes and totally ignored the birthday boy!!

We were so hungry til we thought of eating ChiaYong as well...Hahaha makan cakes is the most important part and celebration is only minor case, I guessed. Kidding! Winks ;-P

However, we were not that cruel though.

Although we were like kids fighthing for cakes.. we did left some for him. Hmmh he look so pathetic having his birthday cake at the road side.

Know what? When i saw this photo...It reminded me of the Hungry Ghost Festival.

You feel the same way too? Why not?

The cakes are placed on the bench and waiting for the "ghosts" to serve...

Somemore at the roadside... Hahaha. As the chinese Sying goes

"Choy!!!.. Tai Kat Lai Si"

"Spit saliva and say again"

and the "angmoh" used to say...

.....TouchWOOD.....

Okay, what comes next? Hmmh not a Bowl Dance of me and him of course...

It's time for "Cake Fight"...

The crowd must thought we're fella from Tanjung Rambutan because we kept making lots of noise and play "eagles catch chicks" game.

We're the eagles and KeeWah is the chick.

Mission is to 'make up' chicken's face with Cake's Cream...

Damn if the Bandaraya fella are out there... We sure kena saman for "dirtying" the roadside...

What a waste yea?? Need money to buy one ar... Much more expensive that Secret Recipe ar...

After the Birthday Celebration, it was almost 11pm and people started to crowd outside of Highland Hotel. Waiting for the countdown and fireworks...

There's many "road show" to see...

Really a city of entertainment. In order to make the crowd heat up... We really felt "membara" by MR Fire

He was there to challenge Dhalsim from Street Fighter.

Showing off his Dhalsim's Stunt. Haha. Well I confirmed the crowd really enjoy his show.... See the Tall clowns behing him? Hmmh these 3 hilarious clowns really entertaining and bring lots of laughters to the children over there.... The children are very naughty and kept on pulling their pants. Hahahaha...

We never miss the chance to take a photo with 3 of them too...

Approx 11.50pm, we were ready for the countdown for a new 2009....

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009!!!

And then the fireworks started to play...

The firewroks show was so damn nice... (This is not photo taken that night- I saved it from google image actually)

I couldn't express by words the feelings I had when I observed the fascinating fireworks... It was like "meteor rain" and the SKY right above me... was so... (Dunno which vocab to use)

At first i tried to include the video we took but due to reason unknown, i Failed to upload it... Sigh.....

I thought of earning some money after the countdown...

But I LOST RM100 to MR LIM...

Damn!

MY NEW YEAR RESOLUTION??!!

I got all in me...

GoodBye All The F**K in History and Welcome a HappY NEw Year
