Yoga Lin is in town
promotional showcase for
his concert next year
and I just found out like
yesterday evening
after I got back home for weekend
and
I am leaving home again
in less than 24 hours time
I wouldn’t have gone home if
I know he gonna be in town
but
I wouldn’t have found out
if I did not go home
because I actually read the news out of
a stack of outdated newspapers
and the funny thing is that
everything is in right timing
although the news are
like coming to me a little unexpectedly
companions for the concert
readily found two
beloved Manager
this is gonna be our Barter trade again
since I still owe her some money for
an upcoming flight ticket
and another fellow fan, Mag
both for Yoga Lin and Eddie Peng
she is even more die-hard
since she is going for both
the Singapore concert, on the coming Nov
and this particular one, next March
the more the merrier
I don’t have to go concert alone anymore
especially concert at Genting
transport and lodging are
always two major hindrances
and budget wise
I promise that
I would limit concert watching to
one per year
since it’s always the all or nothing
if I am going would definitely go for
the most expensive one or
just stick to DVD purchase only, if there is any
and hey, this concert is scheduled for 2013
so it’s quite alright, right?
5.30 a.m. Wake up 自然醒
8.30 a.m. public bus to Melaka Sentral
9.30 a.m. express bus to K.L.
11.30 a.m. LRT-Monorail to city
12 noon
sales booth was opened,
grabbed the concert tickets
and here came the long
8 hours to kill
before the showcase at 8.30 p.m.
but if I did not turn up early
may not be able to get the
front-strategic concert tickets, right?
thanks goodness
the Queen was with me
throughout the whole day
or else I wouldn’t know how would I
have spent like more than 12 hours in malls
I just asked her like 6 something in the morning
and she immediately said yes
and thank goodness
the best part is that
at the end of the day when
we parted, after 10 p.m.
she was still in pretty good mood
no grumpiness or that sort of thing
I was quite worried, in fact
because she was there in town
even 2 hours before I got there
hanging out at KLCC
completely out of shopping mood today
because I just forked out like
more than RM 1k (in advance) for the tickets
food list:
the not so proper, as usual
1 p.m. super sweet éclairs X crispy crepe
3 p.m. spicy Tom Yam soup for tea
5 p.m. yet another tea break at Old Town
shop list:
Sungei Wang – Lot 10 (Zara) - Fahrenheit 88 (Uniqlo) - Pavilion – KLCC – Pavilion - Sungei Wang
6 p.m.
before I got so dizzy due to
the layout and the shops
hunted and found the hairband
my niece Jazmine has always been asking for
because she randomly saw a girl on TV was wearing
that’s the only thing I bought today
hope she will like it
I have been looking for it
and the most difficult part is to describe
what am I actually looking for
flexible bunny ear?
6.30 p.m.
there were people
standing at the concourse area
waiting for the showcase scheduled at 8.30 p.m.
here came the waiting
finally it was starting at 8.45 p.m.
autograph session at 9.30 p.m.
rushed to get it done
mission accomplished
and here came another round of
transport mad rush
monorail – LRT – airport train – cab
finally got back to hostel by 10.30 p.m.
longest day ever
which I have spent in Kuala Lumpur downtown
thanks to a Taiwanese artist
the city somehow is
always something I am so unfamiliar with
the composition of
various ethnicities and nationalities and
those in between
conversations in so many languages,
some familiar,
some completely incomprehensible
some the mixture of both
the spacious floor space of luxurious brands
which I don’t even have the guts to enter
versus
the mind-your-head and gap budget clothing stores
which you avoid being associated with
the great varieties of food and beverage outlets
which gives you a headache
but after walking one round
ending up eating what you always eat
but of course for commoners like me
financial mean is a huge determinant
or I wouldn’t mind walk into any restaurants
serving quaint cuisines across continents
p.s.
there isn’t much photo for the day
because my camera was running low on battery
must hibernate and preserve some energy for
the showcase at night
