Short official trip to KL

Was away last week for the fraud conference in KL. Met alot of people from different telcos and they shared their experiences with fraud. Some frauds were very elaborate and simply mind boggling. While others are pretty straight forward.

One bad thing about the conference is that it started on a public holiday!!!! Sigh..... But other than that it was all good.

Been quite some time since I last went to KL. I think the previous trip was also an official one.

Touched down in KLIA around 6pm and there was a looooonngggggg (for extra emphais) queue at the immigration. And the train is on maintenance. I had to walk a loooonnnggg way just to catch the shuttle bus to the other building. What's worse???? I was in high heels. Blame the bimbo in me.

Well at least by the time we were done with immigration, our luggage were already lying around the floor. Fortunately nothin happened to our luggage. With everything done, we were on our way to our hotel. I stayed in Piccolo Hotel. the same hotel that I stated in in 2008.

Arrived at the hotel around 7pm plus. Informed TL that I would take a quick shower and then we can go for dinner as I was famished. But...... Before showering I just had to take some pics.



Loves the light behind the bed. The room is just I remembered.






That was the wash basin with the shower and toilet behind. Prolly not a good idea if you are planning to stay here with friends. Haha.



Kick ass full length mirror for the wardrobe. Luckily for Bi's new house I had designed a full length mirror for one of the sliding wardrobe doors. Smart le me??? Actually I got the idea from this hotel one la.

When TL came over, we went hunting for food. It was good meeting TL again. Bi was very worried about mr being alone and everything. He (TL not Bi) brought me to somewhere near Jalan Alor (famous for hawker food, for which TL added tourist trap)

Had a tough time choosing the food that we want. I really wanted to try the Portuguese plate throwing roast pig something something. But it's only the 2 of us. So we decided on Indian food. I love all the restaurants in KL. So swanky!

Ordered a cocktail. It's was yummilicious!!!!!! While TL ordered his hoegarden. (I can't stand beers!!!! It's so bitter!)

Here's me looking very pleased with my cocktail.



Please blame the photographer for this dark and blurry photo and not my iPhone.




A pic of my blue cocktail. I know it looked green but it's blue. Dun trust TL who argued that my drink is green. Even the name is blue something something one. How can be green le?

Here is TL the man himself.



I think I took a better photo of him than he of me.

The indian food is a bit different than the ones in Brunei. The fish was GOOD!!!! Chicken was quite good. But the aloo gobi is very very different from the one in Le Taj.

I felt that the things are really very very expensive in KL these days. All the items that I like were like rm 300 onwards. Gosh! How to buy like that? So I bought alot of shoes!

This is just 1 pair.



Tell me that u dun think that it's absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!!! It's 5 inches by the way. Yeah am getting old, my feet do ache now. But what is the pain compare to such gorgeous shoes?

Mr Lun was very nice. No wait he was extremely nice for my entire trip. He practically paid for each and every meal (cept for breakfast n lunch since this is provided by the organizer of the conference) He also paid for the movie tickets (watched warrior's way and due date, yeah KL is boring when u have to work the next day) But he reminded me that I had to do the same for him when and if he comes to Brunei. No problem at all Lun!!! (since its gonna be n years when he comes back for a visit)

I also bought a tint blush from Shueumura and a gel liner from Bobbi Brown. I love the tint blush!!!! It like my current love as of now. And the gel liner is really as good as those peeps recommended. It stayed on for the whole day! Even after I played badminton.







The brush from Bobbi Brown is soooo good!!!! For a noob like me.

While browsing through the bookstore ( I think it's call the Times or something like that) I saw this book!!!!



Hmpf! We are not allowed to remove the exam papers from the examination hall. I guess that they wanna further earn our money!

Here's Lun with his eyes wide open. I think he looks rather good under my guidance to taking a good picture. Haha!!!



Before we went to the bookstore, we were sitting across the store eating Baskin Robbins!!!!! With waffles some more. Ahhhhh it's sin food I tell you.



World class chocolate and pistachio.



Testing out the tint blush and the gel liner! Hehe. The blush gives a really very natural glow to your skin. Even Lun complimented me that my skin is a lot better than the girls he sees in KL. Muahahaha.



The gift for Bi! Which I had to lugged around Pavillion and hand carry it some more since it won't fit into my luggage. Opps sorry, which Lun carried around Pavillion. Coz I was acting like my shopping was really heavy and everything. (not really an act anyway. It was heavy but nothing that I couldn't manage) Dun tell Lun this though. Hehe.

I din take a lot of photos coz I was too lazy to bring my camera. So all pics were taken by iPhone.

That being said Lun's phone broke while I was there. (I swear that it has nothing to do with me whatsoever!) so he is getting an iPhone! iPhone 4 that is. Bit it was out of stock from Digi center, I think he has to wait for a few days. Kesian.....

Anyway, that's all I think. This post has been sitting as draft for quite some time. So just wanna get it posted.

An end to my official KL trip!

Thanks Lun for ur much appreciated hospitality!

There have been so many instances where I came by my blog and I want to blog about so many things in my life. But there were also as many instances where I just gave up and kept my thoughts to myself. I am 34 years old in 2017 and soon I will be another year older. I am getting more jaded every year because of the things that I have seen. I also feel aimless. I feel as if I am meant to do something more than this. I do not want to wake up and go to work Monday to Friday and so happy when its Friday and becoming depressed when its Sunday (coz the next day would be Monday) It's not like I want to be a millionaire or something like that. Even though money is still important (Hey, I still gotta eat, cant very well grow my own food), it no longer hold the same position as compared to a few years ago. I do not care very much for status as well. Its all so fleeting. After being married in 2013, I am still childless at the moment. Its not by design but I dun mind it all that m...

Unveiling

I was so excited yesterday. Someone called and told me that it was ready for pick up. What is ready for pick up? What makes me so excited? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . What else would make me so excited other than cars? Woo Hoo!!!!! Subaru Impreze STi !!!! How cool is that? Bi fetched me yesterday around 5pm to pick up the car. I could not sit still at home. Was feeling so excited. STi has 3 settings, Intelligence, Sport and Sport Sharp. I read an article online saying that the Intelligence mode makes the STi crawls like a snail. Hmmmm, their exact words not mine. So Bi and me took the car out for a short drive. We were kinda disappointed with the power. It was then we realised that the setting was at intelligence. OMG!!!! When we changed the settings to Sport Sharp, the power is unbelievable. Its like 3 times faster and more powerful. We hit 180 km/h in less than 2 minutes (mite be less if not for those few turtles on the road). In the past S15 will need quite some time to hit 16...

After you by Jojo Moyes

After I read Me Before You by Jojo Moyes  a few years ago, I was waiting for the sequel. What would happen to Lou after Will left? What would her life be? If I am Lou, I will constantly ask myself 'Why am I not enough?' 'Is there anything that I could have done to change his mind?' 'Was it all just me? Just in my mind?' In this sequel, Lou was a wreck! But it's understandable though, she had just lost the love of her life. She has lost someone who had shown her the different aspects of life. Showed her that the life she have had is so unbelievably small. There is so much more to live for. Showed her how she could have made a difference! I couldn't put the book down and I finished it within 1 and a half day. It was strangely compelling. You will be rooting get for Lou all the way. Although there are times that you can't help but get angry with her! 'What was she thinking??????' There was a part in the book that addresses the length of ti...
