Falls Creek Fever...~~~
My 3D 2N Falls Creek ski trip ended on Sunday nite...Three words to describe it: "Fun,Unexpected, and Pain"...u'll see why i used this three words later...
Day 1
We departed at 1.30am on Thursday...and it took us around 7 hours to Falls Creek...the famous ski mountain...apparently it is at the border of Sydney and melbourne i guess...everything was fine except for the winding road up the mountain...oh ya,i bumped into a fren- Haw chuan in this trip...was so surprised to see him and guess wat,we were in the same coach and trip...he's a quite talkative guy,but i guess i got to kno him much more now...and he introduced his two other frens,Joseph and Chee Wai to us...it was kinda snowing when i reached the mountain,so damn cold!!!and eveyrone else's room was ready except for haw chuan and our room...which means to say we have to wait till 4.30pm bfore we can check in...neway,not an issue since we have come so far to ski...went straight to the Gebi's ski hire to take our ski poles,goggles etc...looked really cool and pro wif all the equipments on...in order to ski,we need to take the ski lift and it will bring us to the top of the mountain...it's quite scary ok coz it's not really safe and we were covered with those clouds and mist...and i jz hate the part where we have to ski down from the ski lift once we arrived at the loading point...coz i jz keeps on falling...and the people working there was like:"C'mon,u'll be fine...jz go now...etc"...makes me even nervous...^^we took the ski lesson and the trainer taught us the most important thing when skiing-How To Stop!!!i tink that's the most important of all...and boy,i can hardly see up there...now i kno how scary it is to be trapped in the mountains,especially when it's snowing...white is the main color...!!!and guess wat,we were so smart to try out the almost advanced route instead of the beginners one...and end up,me,irene and val jz walked down the slope...it was so steep and cloudy that we hardly can see the end point...thanks to Mr. Howch...!!!was damn tired on the first night that we slept at 8.30 pm...slept for almost 12 huors right up to the next morning...and i heard everyone was snoring ahead...ooOOHhhh,i almost forgot to mention that me,sze,irene and val had our bath tub 'talk' together...accompanying us was the honey soy chicken chips...huahauhua...the four of us was so desperate about having a hot shower that we went in to the tub together...and soaked ourself wif hot water filled up...oooHHHH yeaaHHH...!!!imagine four girls squeezing ourself in a small little bath tub...laughing,taking photos,eating chips...so enjoying huh...can u imagine the scene??!!cool huh!!!and took some really funny but i think quite sexy photos...
Day 2
Was so refresh this day coz after our long sleep,we finally recharged our batteries...Started off with a nice breakfast of our own...coz we brought bread,tunas,bananas,milk and crackers along...so smart huh...coz we estimate that the food here will be quite expensive...and our expectation was 100% correct!!!neway,we took the Eagle Ski Lift to Village Bowl...coz today we planned to have a go on the ski tubes...it was quite fun though...except for the long wait...not that many ppl were playing...but the lift to tehre was jz so slow...the speed of a snail...the speed of the tube was quite fast...it cost around 14 bucks to play for half an hour...not too bad...after that,we had lunch at Max Cafe...soOOOO nice!!their wedges in sour cream and sweet chilli is jz sooooooo nice...and we ate german sausage,gnocchi served wif chicken,sundried tomato and pestos,and a turkish sandwich...though they are quite expensive but i tink it's really nice...after that,it was time to head up the mountains...we were so proud of ourselves coz there was this route called Wombat Rambles,and it leads us back to the resort...we ski all the way from the mountains back to our resort...huahuahua...although there were some falls in between,but at least we tried to slowly 'slide' back...huahuahua...and apparently,it was the quite easy route for beginners,like us...!!!also, we tried the Cloud Nine,Village,Tom Thumb routes...all for beginners...huahuahua...the annoying thing about skiing is that u keep falling if ur not good at balancing and is afraid of falling...falling is not an issue,the annoying part is getting up again...the two thin ski board,which i tink they looks like a pair pf giant chopstick,is jz soooo heavy...and ur in this thick layers of clothes and the almost duno how many kg ski boots...it's jz so hard to stand up once u fall...the second day was the last day of our ski coz we need to return the equipments,but i guess we make use of them very much...the best part for today was goin to the spa and sauna...soooooooo nice to stay in the warm water wif pumping massage...almost 9 of us squeezed ourself in the spa pool...boys and girls all in one spa pool...how cool can that be??!!i like it for some reasons bcoz it tends to bring all of us together from total stranger to wat we call friends...we were crapping...talkling about future dreams,current studies,personal life etc...then,we went to the sauna to warm our body...not too hot as compare to the gold coast one...but nice as well...after dinner,we were about to play uno and Haw Chuan was knocking on our windows...he offered baileys and we agreed to play wif him right away...huahuahua...few of his frens joined and end up our small ittle room was packed wif 11 people...we started off by playing the classic uno game...and the atmosphere bcame stronger and fun when we start to play 'fuzzy duck' and'bing bang wa'...fuzzy duck was the catch...hhahahahahaha...everyoen was confused...even irene and i was played when they start to suggest to change the rule of the game...then,we played 'bing bang wa' and again it was hilarious...!!!coz the loser needs to sing a song...so our beloved loser Chee Wai and another girl from hk lost...Chee Wai act as the background singer and it was so damn funny...nvr expect a PHD actuarial studies guy to have this kind of humour...and Joseph entertained us wif some of his jokes and i tink he did manage to make all of us laugh...another unexpected one...ok,some dirty jokes as well and Haw Chuan showed us his magic tricks...we were like 'Wahhhhh'...
Day 3
Today,the bus will pick us up at 4.30pm...so we basically hav the whole afternoon to spend...we have all decided to spend our time playing snow,build snowman and start a snow ball fight...we took the free Gully lift up and guess wat...except for our thick jackets,we hav nothing else but ordinary shoes...freeziiiiiiNNGGg!!!frozen leg!!!but anyway,it was fun...we again went to Max Cafe for lunch and this time we tried their linguini and risotto...not bad,not bad...we took loads of photos and Howch's snow ball can really fly...all new and old frens got along together quite well...which i tink it's a good thing...at least we are not sticking to only the one group...we exchanged our contacts,planning for further outings or metting up session...everyone was happy about this ski trip especially the guys maybe...huahuahua...sort of tok all the way back...it's funny how at first we were all like sticking closely to our own small group,and ended up now sitting closely together wif the other new groups...i guess goin on trips together can really establish the new relationship thing wif new frens etc...^^basically now i'm having blue blacks at my arse,leg,calf,and pain at the shoulder...but still,im happy bout it coz it's the result of me being a 'pro' skiier...huahuahua...
So that was the end of my report about this trip...it took me almost one hour to post this entry...too much to write...but i tink i still left out some details...^^happy trip!!!will upload photos in my flickr and f'ster...^^
