[ Weekend in not-so-brief ]
posted @ 05:48 AM by fel
So, back from KL .. actually, we got back Sunday night, but I've been pre-occupied (work and laundry). Anyway, fun fun fun .. had a lovely time up there with T except for one particular brief moment which I will delve into later.
Friday afternoon, we left Singapore for our little expedition up north. The guy selling the bus tickets was a little strange; whenever we asked him a question (i.e. are there any seats left?), he would just smile a toothy smile. We weren't too sure whether we going to even get on the bus cos all our questions were answered with this wide grin and scrunched up eyes. Anyway, after the delay, we finally hopped onto the bus about 45 mins later than scheduled, but it was ok, we were finally on our way!
We soon discovered our bus driver was a bit nutty too; I think he was hooning it down the highway at around 150km/h. We zoomed past all these cars, but you know, what you don't know won't kill you
Terrible traffic jam in KL greeted us, and we only got into the hotel around 9.30pm. Speaking of the hotel, T and I do NOT recommend staying there (Radius International). Our toliet was leaking, the pillows and comforter looked rather dodgy, but anyhow, it was just a place to stay and we learnt out lesson. Dinner was at some dodgy mamak place down the road, the maggi mee goreng was not so flash. Anyhow, we opted for an early one so that we would have enough energy for shopping the next day!
Heh.. and shopping is what we did! Early start, woke up at 8.30am (I know can you believe it?!?!) and my friend K came to pick us up for brekky. More mamak food, but good stuff - Devi's at Bangsar. YUM!
Plan of action was to hit MidValley and shop-til-we-dropped.. or until our wallets were empty. Actually, that was more of T's plan since cost of everything was basically divide-by-3 (thanks to the strong AUD). Not so flash for me earning Singapore dollars: divide-by-2.
So we were at MidValley shopping our little hearts out from 10.30am until 3.30pm .. and T definitely came out of it a winner We spent at least 2 hours plus in Zara where she walked out with 13 pieces!
K came to pick us up again (yes, he's such a gentleman! haha .. thanks K!!!!) and we headed to Sri Hartamas for makan (Tandoori chicken and naan - again, YUM!!!!). Headed back to the dodgy hotel, showered, then headed for dinner at Green Lotus Cafe (behind Lot 10). Very nice ambience, and we had a nice little private room and sat on the floor heh. Word of advice if you ever dine there; don't bother with the desserts. The rest of the meal was nice though..
Passion was the choice of party place. Met with K and J also came down to meet T and I. I liked the place, it reminded me of one big house party with the numerous lounges etc. Only shitty thing is that I saw an ex of mine who I haven't seen for 6 or 7 years. Even though we broke up so long ago and I have absolutely zilch feeling for him, seeing him unsettled me - that double-crossing two-timing asshole. I’ve been over him for a long time but YET, something still annoys and frustrates me .. so annoying cos I totally do not think of him or those unhappy after-breakup months, and now that I see him out of the blue, it has to come back and remind me of my naïve and impressionable days.. well, at least a big lesson was learnt.
Sunday was not so intense. Just a bit of shopping down at Petaling Street, and later down at Bukit Bintang area (I LOVE Eclipse down at Lot 10), and lots of tea-drinking. Not so good later when we got on the bus; I had to beg the bus-driver to stop after 1 hour because I was THAT busting. I tried to hold and tahan, but alas, I felt like my bladder was about to burst. We got back into Singapore quite late and I crashed. Quite a tiring, but fruitful weekend!
Ok, long entry I know. Anyhow, haven't uploaded pictures yet, so next entry. Going to leave work now (finally) so adios!
Currently feeling: tired
