KL trip Part III

Friday, August 5th, 2005

         Today was quite a day!All i did the whole day was drive drive drive drive…i was basically my bro’s driver today…haha…wat will they do without me???then at around 7pm jnow i had to send isaac and joshua to Tom’s for a birthday party…then from ther i had to head for church to pick sonia up(so sorry for being late!) then i had to drive up to 7th mile to jeyanthi’s hse…man it was a long journey!went to jeyanthi’s house to practice a mime…we will be performing it on Sunday during communion…hope everything will turn out perfect!6 gals will be performing this Sunday…and so far we haven’t practice together yet…its alwez summone not around…nvm…tomolo will be the last time of practice…hehe

      anyways back to my kl story….hmmm….so after one nite in ktt,we went to the camp site via KTT BUS…the mindset camp organized by jpa was held at komplex sukan siantan at selayang…the place was nice…so much nicer than the btn camp we had to attend last time…the whole place was air-conned…and the hostel was nice!!!fully air con!!!and the bed was real comfy…and since it is a komplex sukan it was equipped with a gym,badminton court,indoor games and a swimming pool!!just too bad i didnt bring my swim suit.

      so we reached ther round 9.30am…after settling down we started our first activity…it was really  nice to see all my college mates again…i mean it had been about a month or so since i saw them…i especially missed my roommate, maya and my hse mates chek ning and ying ying…they really made my life in ktt colourful!miss u guys and love u!

so the activities were stupid and its actually such a waste of time this camp!at 4pm,the activities ended and we can do anything we wanted til the next day!so tat evening we went to the gym and the went swimming and then after tat played carom wif sum of my frens…i gotta admit tat i kinda suked in it…hahha…

the next day we had to see the counselor one by one for them to evaluate us…actually we did a personality test in April,so now is the evaluation for the test…each session was about 20 mins to 30 mins but one guy who went before me took about 1hr 30 mins for his counseling session!madness….he must be a really screwed up guy…haha…was so mad at him for delaying my turn and the rest of the ppl’s turn too!!!hmp!!!so wat did the counselor said bout me???hahah…most are true but sum not true…if u wanna know ask me personally yea!

so after the evaluation we were all free to go bac…so me,fatin and alifah took the bus to central market then head to mid valley again until about 12am before her bro sent us to the airport coz our flight bac was at 5.30am the next day…at mid valley we met ivory and carolyn…its amazing how fatin,me and ipah are connected to ivory!!!haha…its like we know each other’s frens and yet i never knew them until ktt…

"sleeping" in the airport was sumthing…The place was Sooooo darn cold and ther was in fact not enuff chairs for us to even sit tat nite…when we finally did find a place to rest ourselves…we were being disturbed by 2 indian men…they were like "kenapa tak balik rumah?kenapa nak tidur di sini?ambil taxi balik rumah lah!"and he kept repeating tat over and over again til we got so mad at him…tat was like around 3.35am… then before leaving the place,ipah retorted back to him, "ada taxi balik ke kch ke?!" haha….padan muka…so we head straight to the waiting room and we well, at least i did get sum shut eyes til the waiting room was swarming wif ppl….

it never so felt good to be bac home tat day!…can zzz the whole day on my bed…so yea,i did zzz the whole day!hahah…looking bac,my kl trip was really an enjoyable one…i wasnt looking foward to it at first but then surprisingly i actually had fun!

KL trip Part II

Wednesday, August 3rd, 2005

    so where did i stopped yesterday?yea,so after one nite’s rest, the next day we headed off to putrajaya to hand in our passport and visa to our sponsors,jpa…so from fatin’s hse,we took a cab to bandar tasik selatan station,then walked to the erl station there…then we took the erl to putrajaya.at putrajaya station,we then took a bus to parcel C where all the government buildings are..at the erl station in bandar tasik selatan,just minutes before the train came,we saw an air stewardess walking from the other side…so we all(being mean) started eying on her guessing whether she could reach on time before the train came.it will be nice to see an air stewardess running wif her make up and tight attire and her heels and bags…but to our dismay,she reached the platform seconds before the train arrived…not even a strand of hair was out of place…damn!u could imagine how disappointed we were then…hehehe…

        in the erl train,damn cun…got tv(but all commercials lah) and its real quiet unlike the other trains(maybe becoz its quite empty) and not to mention its fast!just too bad its kinda expensive…from bts to putrajaya which is only one station away cost us rm5.30 each…it was in the erl train i saw the trailers for charlie and the chocolate factory…i remember reading it when i was younger…it was nice as a book…wat more to say now as a movie…it is a must see movieCharlie

its about Charlie Bucket, a boy from an impoverished family under the shadow of a giant chocolate factory, wins a candy bar contest and is given a tour, along with four other children, of the amazing factory run by the eccentric Willy Wonka and his staff of Oompa-Loompas.Starring Johnny Deep,Freddie Highmore,David Kelly,Deep Roy,Helena Bonham Carter and more..

so, after meeting our sponsors,we head bac to kl…this time back to mid valley again..now tat fatin has her shopping list well,she kinda started her shopping and i continued my shopping…but at the end of the day i still bought more stuffs than her!!!haha…i guess im really good at shopping huh?at mid valley,we met up wif our collage mate,ever cute nadia and tasha…nice to see them again actually…i guess the only thing i miss about ktt is the ppl ther..we really pull tru all the hardship we encountered…so in the evening we went bac to fatin’s hse and watch tv…

   the next day, once again we went out shopping again(for me!) but this time to klcc and sungai wang…u know,everywhere we went, all we saw was Arabians everywhere!!!those rich ppl…ull only see them around in all those expensive designer clothes…one thing about these Arabians,u will only see them around during our megasales and the gals…they really splurge!!just too bad they have to wear those jubah tat its really pointless they buy such nice clothes and expensive ones summore…i think i did the biggest purchase in klcc…i got myself a cd walkman..yups…about rm 359…i got it after much considerations ok…i even took ages thinking whether i should buy it…ask ipah…well i think its a good buy coz it comes with mp3 player and also its anti shock and has radio in it…so next time i need not get myself a radio dy!save money…so after walking round round klcc, we head to Lot 10 where fatin FINALLY got the handbag she wanted from mng…man,that gal took ages to decide on that handbag…we saw it in mid valley but she Said she will find others first and she will think bout it 1st…after one day past, she regretted for not getting it coz mng in klcc dont haf..so finally we went to lot 10 and that’s where she finally got her handbag…fatin fatin…

that nite,we all went bac to college to stay for the nite coz the next day we had to attend this camp organized by jpa…so i stayed in May Tan’s apartment(miss u olady!!!)…its really nice to see all my Juniors again…knowing tat i wont be meeting them anymore…kinda said actually coz i really mad good frens wif a few of them…but tats ok…frens come and go i guess…

so ill stop here…ill conclude my story tomolo i hope…lol….til then ill leave u all wif pics from the movie scene from charlie and the choc factory ENJOY!!

KL trip Part I

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2005

      home sweet home… this is where i am now…back in this familiar old city of kuching…somehow or rather,i still kinda miss kl…there is just so much going on in kl…i cant just sit around at home doing nutting coz there is just so much to do in kl…the pace of life there is also sooo fast unlike kuching everything is just sooo plain slow slow ssslllllooooooowwwwww……there is not much going on here…eventough it mega sales here,everything is still like normal….all i can do at home is sleep, eat sleep eat and there’s online games and the radio…other than tat,wanna go out also got no where to go…i know i sound very pathetic here…i need to get out!!!wanna feel the sun!!!

if u all haf been wondering when did i actually go to kl?well, i went back there last Monday(25th July-eppy bday maya and healsca!) together wif fatin and ipah the crazy gal(jgn marah!).we took the 1st flight…yea…the FIRST flight to kl at around 5.50 am…so if ur wondering why we all so kinteo go kl sooo early in morning? actually the soul reason we are going there because we had to do our visa before the end of July and we had a camp to attend to.so we don’t wanna waste time ma go early early to reach the embassy before it opens at 9.00am..so, at 5.50am we board the MAS plane…and when we were sleeping so nicely,the air stewardess just haf to wake us up to eat…since i paid for my food i woke up lah…hehehe…(actually hungry tats y) we were served kononya SPAGHETTI and chicken…but when our food came…(drum roll please!)…it was chicken alright but the spaghetti…haha…looks like mee goreng instead…haha…well, it was the size of spaghetti but the colour black black one summore dont taste like spaghetti…spaghetti kononya…early early in the morning olady kenak cheated…

then in klia,we took the klia limo to jalan duta where the high commissioner of India is…when we told the taxi driver where we wanna go,the looked shocked and asked us "kamu olang(chinese guy bah) bukan dari malaysia ah? " then when we reached there….tu tu tu…indian ppl everywhere!it just reminds me how India gonna be like next time(scary ok!)then while waiting for the place to open,we met Mohsen and Meng Yee with Eustace came later…then one indian uncle asked us to fill in the forms 1st…but he was being sooo nice to FILL IN THE FORM FOR US.  wat went tru my mind was…"wah.where got ppl so nice…nevermind lah…" then,after he finish filling the forms,he charged each of us rm5 for his ‘SERVICE" bayangkan,3 ppl dy he earn rm15..so tats the second time we got cheated for the day…

man n the building,the place look so indian..nutting like any office I’ve seen before…very backwards…when its our turn to make our visa,when the officer set eyes on our forms,he asked us who fill in the forms…so we told him the pak cik outsidelah…man was the officer mad…he started scolding us…"u all are future doctors…u should fill in ur form! blah…blah…blah…"then he gave us fresh forms ask us to fill in the forms OURSELVES…so its bye bye the rm5…

tat place right,eventough it has numbering system,its no use coz no1 follows it…when its our turn,when we went to the counter and we saw ppl lining up there regardless of their number!so darn annoying…and the ppl there were all starring at us!maybe coz we looked lost there or maybe we just got scolded by the officer but man…make u wanna leave tat place as fast as we can…really cant imagine how India will be like..this is just a small bit of India…sigh…

     so while waiting for our visa to be completed,we managed to go to mid valley to start our,well, hmm…it was my shopping…hehhe…so it was shopping shopping shopping up to about 4.00pm til we head back to the high commissioner again to claim our visa…and again,its lining up again…its funny tat claiming passport and visa don’t u haf to do it urself but this one they let anyone claim it for u…nonsense ah???

so for the night,we stayed in fatin’s brother’s hse…took dominoes for dinner…yum yum!!and head for bed…

gosh,tat was just the 1st day in kl but we were all sooo exhausted…so i guess ill stop ere 1st and continue my part II sum other time,k???its dinner time dy
