GLOWTOPIA - NEW YEAR FESTIVAL

MONDAY 31st DECEMBER 2018

Where am I celebrating for this new year ?

Well, me and my friends celebrate at Sunway Lagoon waterpark, where the Glowtopia Event took place. The que starts from as early as 5.30pm ( even though the gate open at 7.00pm ). Quite a long que to wait, but the pace is fast.





We have our dinner first at Sunway Pyramid shopping mall ( just next to the theme park ). The food inside is quite expensive, so we better off have our dinner outside.

This is the first time this kind of event took place here in malaysia. Its originated from the US, the same concept was bring-in, where you suppose to be wet all day out. But, well, unfortunately, things doesn't come out the way is suppose to be.











Many false error come out. I'm not try to complain, but maybe this is what happen when it is the first time for the organiser. Some point that they should take consider :

1. The theme is suppose to be WET. But for us, not a single water splash at us. We all dry the whole night. I see that they close down the water park. Honestly, they should open the wet park. Let the water flow. This will sure bring more excitement for the audience.

2. The water slide took TOO-LONG-QUE to wait. We waited nearly 1 hour plus in line, but end up, bail out. Cannot take it anymore. Too long to wait. And some people keep on cutting lines, quite poor management on the organiser's side.

3. The quality of stuff sell here is to poor. We bought a bottle of water, that suppose to glow when splash on to others, but, nothing happen. It just like a normal water that doesn't serves any purpose.

4. Same goes to the paint. We try paint it to our face, but the quality is too bad, it looks to poor when applied.

5. The only thing that went right tonight is the fireworks. Right past 12.00am you will see a lot of fireworks in the sky. It last for 15 minutes, then finish.

Overall, its quite a mess event. For a fee that cost nearly rm100 per person, what we get is really not worth it. Hope the organiser do some adjustment and improve for next time. Or else, they will sure have a bad review.

Denai 3 Puteri - Kota Damansara

SATURDAY 15th DECEMBER 2018

This place is very suitable for those who are new in hiking or just want to keep fit with friends or families. The place is very clean, straight forward track, and a lot of people hikes here. Most of the people are friendly. You will feel welcoming if coming here.




Coming to this place, you will need to Google Map or Waze either Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Seksyen 10 Kota Damansara, or, Kota Damansara Community Forest Park. If you coming on weekend or public holiday, be prepared that you might have to park quite far from the entrance.

You need to register your name first before going up. Register at the brown building ( Pejabat Pengurusan Taman Eko Rimba Kota Damansara ). Once done, then you are ready to go.








You will see a toilet and an information board after you pass by the brown building. Check out the info before you go. Atleast this will give you a clear idea of how the track would be like.

Depending on which track you choose, the distance is quite varies. As for us, we choose TEMUAN - SAHABAT - UNITY - DENAI TIGA PUTERI - PEAK. Make sure you choose the right track, or else, you will be end up wondering around is circle. The track can be quite confusing, so, just be careful.




















The track is straight forward. You will see trail marks or marker on the tree so you can keep tracks. Along the way there will be a seating bench for you to take a rest. Continue your way until you find a big fallen tree trunk with a Denai 3 Puteri signage. Well, this is not the actual peak. Walk further more until you reach the actual peak.

Unlike any other peak, the peak here you will see highway. This is the NKVE highway. We manage to reach the peak after one and a half hours of hiking. This, if you follow our track mention earlier. Or else, the time might be more. Depends on your route chosen, and, your pace.











Overall, this place is suitable for all kinds of people. You can even ride a bike here. There is a track for off-road bikes. A lot of trees here so you won't be too exposed to the sunlight.

Give it a try. Bring your friends or family with you. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

Cheers !
