Monday SS2 Pasar Malam With Arron Lim

I would like to make this short and sweet because I am super firing right now as I wrote the whole post already but the blogging service didn’t save my stuff and I have to rewrite again. Since I still have many stuff to update, I’ll let the photo speaks can they? =)

I am a pasar malam a.k.a. night market fans, as you know. I visit lots of pasar malam and this pasar malam at SS2, Petaling Jaya is the first pasar malam I visited after I come to KL for studies. KL and PJ are different place at there but to not confuse my reader who are from their lovely place, KL will become the general word of the place I am at.

On a lovely Monday, I went to the night market with my good high school buddy, Arron, who is from Penang also. We went there for dinner, walk walk and also to look for the famous Penang Asam Laksa. Yeah.

Driving from Bandar Sunway to SS2 takes like about 15 minutes provided smooth traffic at Lebuhraya Damansara Puchong. But then looking for a parking at there is haste as we rounded the area for 3 times only can find a parking space by the roadside. A reminder is that keep all valuable thing nicely because you know, there’s all sorts of people. =)

I was surprised to see that there’s pirated DVD vendors at because I don’t normally see them at the night market back in my hometown. And you know I am not a fan of pirated DVD at night market, I prefer… haha, you know… hehe.

Walk around at there and found many special street food like satay, chicken on a stick, mini burger, special taiwanese sausage, lots of bubble tea and more! I super like Taiwanese sausage and bubble tea, wondering when will I get the chance to go to taiwan to try the REAL thing.

One thing want to say is walking at this SS2 pasar malam is a little bit discomfort because the stalls are too closed to each other and the walkway is too narrow as the crowds are huge at there.

The best part of the night was finding the famous Penang Asam Laksa which makes me feel a bit at home at last. The taste is almost different but couldn’t say 100%, but it’s just almost. =) Any recommendation more for night market? Do check out Taman Connaught’s Night Market that I visited too!

Walk Walk at Pavilion, Fahrenheit 88 and Kelana Jaya LRT

Hello people. Still remember two weeks ago I went to Kuala Lumpur with my friends from Penang. Yes, here am I continuing my story. It was a rainy day. Pavilion and KLCC is like stone throw away but then because of the rain, we couldn’t get across the street and walk to Pavilion. That’s the problem.

We tried to wait but the rain was like getting bigger and we 7 people only had an umbrella. We hailed a taxi at KLCC and he wanted RM10. We did not get in of course. Carmen thought it was cheap. Haha. Then we asked for another taxi, and RM5 he wanted and agree to take 5 of us. That’s better. The other two, Xiu Xin and Tee Jin walked to Pavilion with an umbrella. =D

Taxi dropped us at the drop off area at the back door, saw a lot of nice car and we went to take photos. Wonder when only will I have a very powerful car valet parked at here. Haha.

Then we walk walk and walk walk. Nothing much to do at there, just walk.

Walked into Apple shop to check out stuff but don’t have iPhone 4 on display. Very jealous when seeing iPhone 4 user go and shop for accessories. >.<

I actually have something to do at Pavilion. I went to DiGi Centre to change my prepaid plan to DG Smart Plan. Now I can surf on the go, unlimited for only RM68 per month. Haha. The whole conversion process took two hours and I have to paid RM68 in advance. The phone need to have RM5 in credit balance in order to the conversion.

After using it for a few weeks, I felt that the DiG is still not better than Maxis, except the price. Cheap!

I didn’t want to eat fast food already because I had McDonald’s for afternoon tea, but since everyone was so craving for it, I joined the fun. Expensive Carl’s Junior which I only will go once in a blue moon. I have no money!

We then walk walk to Fahrenheit 88, the new mall, used to be KL Plaza and it’s pretty small inside and not very cool. Nothing much in there, many shop not yet open and what I am most excited about is Uniqlo. =D Yay. Opening somewhere in November if I am not mistaken.

Oktoberfest is here! I don’t drink, too bad.

Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre’s toilet.

Walked back to KLCC to take the LRT back to Kelana Jaya where our cars were.

A bit sampat squatting at there, but I was just so tired.

Arron!

Guys, from Penang and Chung Ling High School. Got Shah Alam, got Kelana Jaya, got Sepang and also me, Bandar Sunway.

Me, Arron, Carmen, Xiu Xin, Tee Jin, Pin Hoong, Jing Min. Yay.

Then good night, it’s late and tired. Penang people in KL. Haha.

Went to KL to Check Out MIFF with Dad

Last weekend, there’s a exhibition/expo happened in the capital, Kuala Lumpur. It’s the Malaysia International Furniture Fair. Dad is in part of the furnishing business so he brought us along to Kuala Lumpur. Usually, going there would be more likely a shopping trip for me and mommy but somehow, I didn’t really buy anything. It’s more like a business-acompany trip, nothing to buy actually and there’s no sale in Malaysia.

To be honest, I am not really into the furniture and related expo, I only interested in something like Electronic Gaming Expo or the Consumer Electronics Show, Tokyo Game Show or perhaps the Taiwan Computex. They’re cool and bombastic gadgets show, which I like! Somehow, I need to be interested in furniture because I will be doing interior design course in college. Yeah.

Quite a lovely rainy day in Kuala Lumpur, it rained so big, the cats and dogs type of rain, it’s nice because it had been very hot weather since Chinese New Year. Temperature here in Malaysia is sky rocket high.

It’s interesting that the MIFF was not located on one venue only, it’s spread out to 3 convention hall, the KLCC, PWTC and MECC. I didn’t really have the feel to tour KL so was just following daddy here and there to do his business.

After finish touring the exhibition hall, we went to check-in at the hotel. We stayed at Concorde. It’s a walk-in as I tried to book hotel but many hotels were fully booked and it’s quite last minute too. Thankfully, there’s still room in Concorde.

Penang also got Jalan P. Ramlee.

We then walked to Avenue K which just right opposite KLCC. From the hotel to Avenue K is like 15 minutes away only, very close, and passed by the night life district.

Have been to KL for so many times, been shopping in Suria KLCC for so many times and it’s my first time getting so close to KLCC, right below it. I now only believe that it’s so magnificent even though it’s not the tallest now. Still, it’s the tallest STAINLESS STEEL TWIN tower in the world. ^^

Malaysia BOLEH.

It’s really a beautiful building and it’s a must visit and photograph if you come to Malaysia.

Avenue K is actually a shopping mall, but then no idea why, there’s no shop inside. There’s only a few restaurant and we went there for dinner. I actually visited the supercondo above Avenue K before, it was like last year. =)

Nice uncle living in KL brought us to this Ah Yat Abalone chinese restaurant. Nice food, nice place!

After dinner, I went to Suria KLCC to window shop a while because it’s still early and I didn’t want to go back to the hotel so soon, as there’s no Internet access also. So might as well stay outside a little while longer. Only then we walked back to the hotel. Then sleep. ^^

Views from hotel room. Saw Hard Rock Cafe yeah. Penang got Hard Rock Hotel.

The next day, went to visit Taylor’s College Lakeside Campus, very beautiful and only then a real window shopping at Suria KLCC again where dad went to visit to MIFF, KLCC hall. Then came back to Penang in evening. Yeah!
