We finally made it!After weeks of negotiation...we(
Kabian,
Jonathan &
me)were able to go to
KL.
Cik Furziah is our teacher advisor and she really help us in the planning of the trip.We really were eager to see our Pahang friends(
Qian Wen &
Adele) whom we met a year ago.
Chee Ming also joined in and his mother help us by finding hotel.
We left Penang at 6 am then from there we have a marathon trip,to sum it all up it was a smooth journey.I even get to have a glimpse of a
Lamborghini Murcielago on the road!!!The sound of the engine was really terrifying and it really ignited my sense!!!It's the
1st time I see a
Lamborghini!!!After that we reached
Times Square at 10.30...we were quite late for our 1st game so we got a
-50 time penalty.More of the games in the next paragraph..
Game 1:Like I said,I had a
-50 penalty..but I won.
WHAT??That is really something unbelievable..lol...a lot of the players near my board really admire my victory since it is something nearly impossible to do.I believe that I was good,but I have to admit that was a lucky game...you will see why...

Nitya,she is from
CGL.The last time I met her I beat her with a comfortable margin,now the table has been turned..it's her to turn to "pwnd" me...

ALOT.He still win,but I did not expect a victory in the
1st place.He is quite good.Our board is really a heck of a kind.Many new words
(most of it are wrong)came out on the board and trips to the computer are frequent.

-575This doesn't look good.Really...this
competition is really hard...either I am really that bad or I faced really though opponents..I'm guessing both..trying to be
neutral here.

After that ordeal,we rushed back to our
hotel to get a
quick shower and then meet up with them.
Suprisingly...it is quite a
good hotel,a good alternative to
Royale Bintang.
(Lookout from our hotel,isn't it nice?)
(Qian Wen taking a picture of Ethan)After a quick shower,we headed back to
Berjaya Times Square and meet up with them.They alsong along some of their friends that they meet in the competition too.We headed to
Sushi King to have our dinner(expect for
Kabian &
Chee Ming who headed somewhere else for a
"cheaper" alternative and went bowling.
(Me & Qian Wen)Then,we went well...shopping?We just walk around and well,
idling while the girls went window shooping..although some of them did buy some things..(where did they get the money??)All I treated to myself is a new
Top Gear magazine & a cool
Man.United shirt
.Well,Qian Wen had to leave early,so we walk around with Adele and her friends.

(Kabian & Jonathan fooling around...)After that,
Cik Furziah take us for a stroll around
KL and my word,it is really nice with all the
life of KL is still
evident even after
daylight.
We went back to the
hotel,but I decided to stay in the hotel when they wanted to go buy coffee.When they were away I get to watch
Epic Movie,quite a nice parody..but there are better ones.We also get to watch
She's the Man on TV.After that,we sleep and day 2 is here...
DAY 2:Day 2(or shall I say final) is here...we had our breakfast in the hotel lobby and we put our luggage in
Cik Furziah's car.After that we head to the scrabble tournoment(again...)
Game 7:I met
Kabian's opponent in the state competition.Kabian says she really had some
"time management problems"(as in scrabble of course)and he is right.She got a
time overrun penalty but that actually wasn't necessary for me to beat her.I got a
168 spread over her.

SGGS.lol...Although they are u-15 but my o my...they are really that good.SGGS are quite good in scrabble overall..I meet

4 of us play in the same table in this
3 games..lol..I am
99% sure I lost this game because of bad tiles..really...she placed a
QATS on a
triple word combo!!and from there I am
screwed...
FINAL SCORE:
W:4 D:0 L:7/Cum Spread:-357My goodness...
am I that bad??Looks like I need to train up alot!!
During this
3 games I befriended those girls and well,it was fun talking with them.Sadly,I have to say goodbye to
Qian Wen and
Adele already...
(Me,Kabian,Jonathan,Chee Meng & Ethan)
(Adele & Qian Wen)
(Jon & Me)
(Group Photo!!)I hope that photo will not be
last one we take together....time we had in
KL was really short...
too short..hope I can go to
KL for the competition next year.(Hopefully they can come too..)Nevertheless it was
fun and I'm sure they had
fun too!
Oh yeah,remember the
Top Gear Magazine &
Man.Utd shirt I bought??This is it:
(The new Lamborghini Gallardo...isn't it sub-zero??)
(My new shirt..I really like the design..and the price!)
IT'S NOT THE END YET!!
