cruise

Well i just came back from a really good cruise trip over the weekends lol... the service staff was amazing.. so yea i cruise with Royal Carribean International onboard their ship the Legend of the Seas. Well and it was a VERY good experience! It totally exceeded my expectations of a cruise liner. Well as we have grown up around singapore we have all known that the lame ass cruise liner the Star cruises and it was bad lol... The last time i was onboard one of the Star Cruises vessel was on the ship the super star virgo and it was well ermm... filled... yea filled with ermm... BANGALAS omg!!! and service was bad well that was last time which was a few years back about now ? i dont know.. but i woundnt put my money on star cruise.

penangg.... 
Right soo the story goes like ermm... we got off at penang and we wanted to walk around for a lil bit and when we got off at the pier there were many peeps aka taxi drivers/tour guides at the pier trying to cash in on the tourist trade lol! Then we met this indian guy whom was like overly hmm... enthusiatic and wanting to get buisness but i had my reservations about him ya... well his background was some kind of a hotel driver(not a taxi driver... reason for me guarding againts him) lol... well he was charging like 30rm per hour for like he will wait for us or something so negotiated a price of 50 rm for the entire trip lol... and well my parents decided to trust him and we went on for the ride... so while in the car he was like saying "i'll bring your to famous tau sa pia shop" and what not lol... and i felt he was trying to cheat us.. lol so i kept denying him and asking him just to send us to the local shopping center lol... but my mum and dad thought that well we could go get some stuff... and we followed his suggestions...  after getting the tau sa pia and he sending us to a local shopping complex he said that we should pay him 30rm first but my dad didnt have small change... but he said that we could pay him later when he comes to pick us up it i felt a small relief  when he said that soo in the end he did come back and pick us up so things turned out good lol.. So in Summary:It was quite hard to trust a stranger but i guess another sincere human is not that hard to trust.
