The Geo-project Interviewing Day

Today is the 1st day of my holiday. I woke up at 8am and then followed my parents for breakfast near my house. After that, my parents sent my brother home before sending me to Titiwangsa station to meet my friends to do my Geography project.

When i arrived, i had to cross a skybridge to get to a bus station on the opposite side. I saw Wai Hong, Lim Shen, Martin, Wei Man, Yi Ern, Yoon Ler, Li Jing, Ying Chuan, and Elaine. After everyone has gathered, we started interviewing people. We've met some people who wasn't cooperative and even though we were going to sell something to them!!! But at last after 30 minutes, i've managed to interview 2 people without any problem and thanked them for their coopration. After the team gets 6 interviews, one of my friends suggested going to Times Square and many of us agreed. One of my friends had something to take care of so she decided not to join us. After buying the Monorail tickets, we set off to Times Square.

We first walked around the place before heading to the top floor to get some food(although i was full, i followed...). Martin wanted to buy some spiked shoes for practice so he and Lim Shen went to some shoe stores and afterwards meet up with the rest of us. We had some pizza for brunch. Although Martin said it was kinda lousy, i thought that the elastical cheese was very appetizing, so i would say that the pizza was semi-good. After the brunch, Martin went off again to find spiked shoes. We started deciding whether we're going to play bowling, watch a movie or sing karaokae. All the boys and some of the girls said no to kaeraokae and most of us doesn't want to bowl, so we've decided to watch a movie. After arriving at the cinema, we've decided to watch "SpiderWicks Chronicles", but after asking the ticket vendor, only 11.30pm seats are available, and it's not even 11.30 am that time! So we changed to watching the 12.15pm seating of "10,000 BC". Before that, we went to a nearby book store and read some comics to pass the time. At 12pm, we each bought a drink before entering the cinema. When we were going into the cinema, the cashier girl ran up to us and handed martin the change he forgot, and it made us laugh even harder is that most of the change is RM1 notes and he usually carries a bundle of RM1 notes with him as well!!! After watching the trailers, which was quite funny, the movie started. The story begins on the year, of course, 10,000 bc, where they introduced the village of Yagal and the main character, D'Leh. And so the story goes on and on until they're invaded by what they call, the "Four Legged Demons"(they were riding on horses...). And the main character go on a journey to rescue slaves and blah blah blah... Watch the movie to find out lah. During the movie, Ying Chuan keep saying about being too cold, i can't blame her for saying that because she was wearing shorts while most of us were wearing jeans. She keeps herself warm by taking other peoples bags and covers them on her. Haiz...

After 2 or more hours, the movie finally finishes and we went to an arcade, Martin so good because he pays for the tokens. Yoon Ler wanted to play the Basketball Machine but all the good ones are occupied and the ROSAK one cheated 4 of our tokens! Then Martin went to a lolipop machine and got 1 green lolipop, for 2 tokens via RM1, but he was still very satisfied. Then Martin, Lim Shen and me tried a punching machine. The high score is 2800.

First Round:
Martin 2700 2600
Lim Shen 2700 2700
Me 2700 2600 (SHOOT!!! Didn't use enough strength...)

Second Round(Martin Only):
Martin 2700 2800

Everyone cheered for him for the score. After that we played some Air Hockey, and i totally sucked at that by scoring 0 to 4 against Martin... The best player was Martin and Elaine where they get a tie in 2 rounds but i think that Martin won because he won the 1st round but unfortunately lost by 3 vs 3 on the 2nd round. After that, everyone was feeling quite tired and agreed to go home. After Martin went home, the rest of us took the Monorail home.

At Titiwangsa, only me, Wei Man, Wai Hong and the girls were waiting for the bus. After a few goodbyes, i got on my bus and headed home. Halfway home, damn weather is starting to rain, luckily it didn't rain too heavily when i reached home, so i made a short dash to my house without getting wet.

What happened today was great, and i enjoyed it soooo much!!! Sure wish i can hang out with my friends like this more often...
Below is Monorail driver seat pictures because it's kind of cool, sorry can't get trip pictures...
