this is no-ordinary marketing-survey field trip
with old pals I have not seen for ages
Eva,
previous meet-up was on 2009.08.15,
on top of Kajang Hill
(left) Tjin, first ever block-mate I talked to at Block G
I have never seen her, still
probably one day,
we can organize a Medan trip cum meet-up at her place
Jess,
previous meet-up was 2010.08.06, Cheras
we were supposed to go Sunway Lagoon the next day
but I “ditched” them, so sorry to them and for myself,
for some stupid reasons
therefore 08.03.2012
is basically the very first official date for this trio
and we happened to wear blue, all of us
and oh ya, the sheer blouse Eva was wearing
is exactly the white one I got at Zara last week
Voucher Bounce X White Blouse: All-alone MV Browse
But no worries
When it comes to marketing survey
we wouldn’t run out of topic to talk about
no matter how long we have not seen each other
On top of the special company
we made a pretty long and new journey
through the big sea, through the long passage
And finally here we were
the KLCC-Bukit Bintang Walkway
it is a 15 minutes walk, as publicized
and is sheltered, (of course) plus air-conditioned
and in terms of safety,
there are security officers stationed along the way
and it actually reminded me a lot of the same structures
available in Hong Kong
where you go through lots of skyscrapers
but of course, if there were to be
a walking marathon competition organized
Malaysian would definitely lose out
Alright, please fly back to KL
I specified Pavilion-C
because this walkway is linked via the Pavilion open-air dining area
which is known as the Connection
it is where the cinema and ktv are located as well
this side of the world is not really my kingdom
Eva was our tour guide of the day
and she actually brought us to this “Brave New frontier” at Pavilion
which is known as the Tokyo Street
need I mention more,
there are a few niche Japanese shops
Eg: Japanese bakery, pastries stores etc
the schedule went like this,
12 p.m. lunch at KLCC
3 p.m. marketing survey at Pavilion
5 p.m. Chatime tea break
5.30 p.m. on our way home
I reached home almost 2 hours later
which I consider pretty luckily early
I didn’t expect that I can catch up the 7 p.m. bus
and miracle did happen (twice, this week)
that the buses just intersected each other at the junction
if they missed each other by 1 minutes
it simply means that I have another 1 hour to
loiter till the 8 p.m. bus
Guess what,
because I dropped by Mid Valley
for groceries survey and
2 sets of happy meal and SpongeBobs
Oh my,
3 malls in one day
Method of transports
· Cab to Putrajaya Sentral (because I was with Her Highness)
· Airport Express to KL Sentral
· LRT to KLCC
· Bus No. 11 to and fro Pavilion
· LRT back to KL Sentral
· KTM train to Mid Valley
· Rapid KL buses back to P. Meranti
awesome, I experienced all the method of
transportation in KL within one day
minus.. private vehicle
the KL traffic was quite messed-up today, actually
since there was this flood and a tunnel has been closed down
Sometimes,
we curse at public transport
for not being punctual, delay, too crowded etc etc
but in time like this,
just feel so glad that they are always here for us
no matter how screwed up (is that a word too heavy to use) they are
it is just part and parcel of urban life
and there are actually improvements in terms of
capacity, safety and the civility of the people in general
Oh I don’t sound like an election campaigner, do I?
the point is just that
we love our city as the way it is
no matter how much and how far you travel,
how much the neighbouring island is doing way better than us
Agree?
