KL Update 3

Was suppose to post this a few days ago but sigh, I got really lazy =P

Anyway, here are some pictures I took in KL (only a few, it takes ages to upload even one picture!):


In Lot 10, I think.


Colmar Village, Bukit Tinggi


Mum and I, in Colmar Village




Swans in Colmar. Don't they look lovely

The decoration at 1 Utama.


(I just realized that I have forgotten to take pictures with people I met in KL lol =P)

There's more in my phone, will upload that later.

~.~


Becky darling, thank you for Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories! Saves me the trouble from playing the Japanese one (which I couldn't understand at all).

It's a bit pesky to play, and quite tough (t's bad enough on Standard mode, let alone Proud!). Them stupid cards. Oh well, I hope I have the...stamina to finish off the game (I wanna play as Riku!!!).

Also, if anyone's interested, check out episodes 11 and 12 of Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae. The whole season has been pretty odd and hilariuos, but those two episodes are actually really good O.o

KL Update 2

I'm gonna split this into several posts so it won't be that much of a pain to read.

Day 3
Initially, we had planned to go to 1U or something but my other uncle (earlier one was Uncle H, this one is Uncle R =P) surprised us in the morning; he came over with my aunt, Auntie R (yes, their names begin with the letter R! How sweet right! =D) and took us to Berjaya Hills instead.

Clickity Click


Berjaya Hills is this resort in Bukit Tinggi, Pahang. Really awesome place. For more info click on that link! There's a French village called Colmar Tropicale (based on the real thing in France) and a Japanese Garden with a tea house and spa. The scenery there is absolutely amazing, so if you've never been there before please take some time off and just go XD It's all scenery, and even if you don't like that kind of stuff... well you should still check it out anyway XD

Went back to KL after a whole day of travelling up and down the hills, and had dinner at The Ship again. Lol. I know, kinda stupid but it was raining quite heavily and we wanted to avoid Jalan Alor at all costs @_@ Wanted to go to Pavillion after dinner but the rain was just terrible. Spent all night in the hotel instead, and I ended up watching football (Liverpool vs Arsenal). Bahahaha I'm the only football freak in my family, and we don't have the sports channel at home, so that one night wasn't ruined =P (for me anyway)

Day 4
Morning: Pavillion
Afternoon: 1 Utama

Went to Pavillion in the morning. Nice place, but the stuff there is just...wow @_@ Even so, my mum managed to get some clothes from Parkson. It was actually cheaper than the stuff in the Parkson in Gurney Plaza. I got some books at Times too, more 3 for 2 thingys. Sigh, Times and MPH. Copycats of Borders. Can't you come up with your own marketing strategies?? Lol.

And of all people, guess who I ran into there....Haan-Ming! I didn't even know that she was in KL, so that was one freakishly amazing coincidence. Just amazing.

After lunch, Uncle H took us to 1 Utama. Met up with Chris there, FINALLY. Was actually suppose to meet her on the first day, but because of the change of plans, we had to reschedule (darn that sounds too business-like haha). Spent all day at 1U with Chris, and once again I didn't buy anything cos I just couldn't make up my mind @_@

Had this wonderful dinner in a seafood restaurant with Uncle H and my aunt. It was really delicious, and quite cheap too. Much better than the awful expensive stuff in Jalan Alor.

Was too tired to do anything after that, so we just went back to my uncle's house and stayed there for the night.

Day 5 (which is today)
Back to Penang!!!!!

~.~


I'll try to upload the pictures tomorrow, if I'm not too lazy.
Until then, good night all.
(I'm ready for bed now @_@)

KL Update 1

Right, I'm too lazy to upload pictures for now, so just bear with this pictureless post first =P

Anyway;

Day One
Arrived in KL on Friday afternoon, was suppose to stay at my uncle's house that night but unfortunately he was busy with some Christmas thingy. So, we ended up in this hotel at Jalan Dang Wangi (is that right?) instead. Not much there, just Sogo and some weird mall called Maju Junction.

Spent Friday night at Sogo and had dinner at The Ship (which is available in Penang btw).

Day Two
Moved to Royale Bintang KL from the Dang Wangi area, took a taxi there. Thank God. Was nearly dying of boredom. We had the whole day to ourselves (busy uncles. Yes, uncleS) so we decided to to go KLCC. Mum was reluctant at first, fearing jams and lack of time. Luckily she changed her mind, I was dying to go to THE Kinokuniya XD

Met up with Trix and her aunt there, and had lunch together. After that it was off to Kinokuniya *inserts skipping onion emoticon* Damn that bookstore's huge @_@ it was my first time there so...yeah. Found this book I've been searching for years, but I didn't get it cos it was quite pricey. We also found those Archie's holiday pack thingies. RM9.90 for one double digest (Usual price: RM11.90) and one single (RM7.90). Really worth it right? We just HAD to have it (haven't been avalaible in Penang for YEARS).

Met up with Nigel (from MT =P) in Kinokuniya too. Stood at the Japanese section for a while, but I didn't buy anything cos:

1. I had no idea what I wanted.
2. The PRICES!!!
3. Saw this FFXIII magazine thingy, wanted it but it costs RM199 or something like that @_@

Sooooooooooooo....I went all the way to Kinokuniya and only bought Remember Me? (30% discount!) by Sophie Kinsella. Mum was pretty ticked off cos she had expected me to buy a bunch of stuff lol.

Left KLCC around 5 something, had dinner at this stupid restaurant at Jalan Alor; a bowl of soup, a plate of vegetables and an astonishing RM35 for a plate of mediocre roast chicken, duck and pork. Total: RM90 X_X Sigh. RM2.50 for a bowl of rice too. Needless to say, my dad was absolutely pissed off. I guess we'll never go back to that place. EVER. Lol. Wandered around Bukit Bintang for the rest of the night.
