[66] Backpacking @ KL

Hey people!!! I'm back!!!
KL certainly was fun...
For someone whose haven been there for like 2 years...
Let's just put the trip this way:
3 students ~ Ming Sheng, Yi Kai and me...
2 missions ~ Information on further education + Quest for fun!!!
1 ending ~ EXHAUSTED...

I'll try to sum up everything and some of the details for myself...
The 3 days 2 nights backpacking trip started as we departed from IPOH railway station on Friday morning... Met with Siew Yee and Pui Yee... Same place and but different mission...
They were more into shopping... Rather than looking forward into the education fair..
First time on the train for me.... And i was really excited bout it...

We reached KL Sentral a little passed noon and had lunch...
Then we started looking for accommodation...
And we stumbled upon BEDZ KL...
It's actually a great place for backpackers as it feels like home...
At least the sofa and tv and the kitchen made reminded me of HOME-SWEET-HOME...

Look for this sign if you're looking for cheap and comfortable lodging in KL...

After checking in.. We took the monorail back to KL Sentral and made our way by KTM and bus to Sunway Pyramid (was it 4 or 5 when we left?)... And again...
My first time on the monorail... Lolz...
What so special bout Sunway Pyramid that we have to travel so far from Bukit Bintang to Subang Jaya??? If you're a KL-ian... You should know... We went there for ICE-SKATING!!!
It was another of my first time..
And to be frank... I'm not so good in it (not in any sports, like i've said)... lolz...
Fell flat on the ice for a few times... Got some minor bruises...
But... Lots of excitement!!!!

Sunway Pyramid Ice in the Blue Atrium

As i said... I'm no natural in sports...

Then we had some New Zealand Natural Ice-cream..
Did some shopping for supper and breakfast...
And we made our way back to Bedz by bus and monorail...
By the time we finished bathing...
It was almost midnight!!!

Satisfying treat...

Lemon and Lime sherbet (light) and Espresso ice cream (dark)..

T-shirt on sales??? Or the wearer??

Wai Nyin should love this one...

2nd day in KL and what did we do???
Our main priority was to gather info on our respective field of further studies...
To the STAR Education Fair at KLCC!!!
Ming Sheng and Yi Kai were clear cut with their choice...
Ming Sheng was into Accounting.. And for Yi Kai.. Chiropractic...
As for me... It was either Pharmacy or Biomedical Science or Chemistry...
But now i'm pretty sure i wan Pharmacy above all...
Guess how long we were there??
11am to 6 pm is like.... ya... 7 hours!!!! In an education fair!!!
Met up with Seng Loon + Pei Kuen, Chih Yong + Ivana and Wen Jin + Pui Yi...
Lovers trip to Education fair... lolz..

As the sign suggests...

Culinary Art... Up: Sugar Art, Down: Melon Crafting

Live DJ broadcast... Spot the celebrities...

Looks familiar?

Yi Kai met his parents there and went off with them...
So there was only me and Ming Sheng...
Ate dinner at Manhattan Fish Market... Tried Sword Fish for the first time...
And it was de-li-ci-ous!!
Then we went back to Berjaya Times Square near Bedz for 2 movies...
Avatar 3D awed me... Despite having problem with the glasses, i still enjoyed the show... Love the fascinating effects the producers put in...
Really love the fact that i could touch almost EVERYTHING!!!
Paranormal Activities however... Totally scarred my holidays... Why? More in the next post...
But i guess i need to apologise to Ming Sheng... Sorry for dragging you into this show...
Should have watched Old Dogs and have a great laugh instead...
It was almost 2 when we finally went to bed...

3D classes on me... Dun look too nice huh...

Ming Sheng comfortable in them...

Guess what this is....

Last day in KL and it was a Sunday...
So I followed Ming Sheng to a church nearby...
Starting to get the hang of going to church... Lolz..
By noon, we packed and checked out as we made another trip to KLCC to meet up with Siew Teng... For some talk on financing higher education and courses related to health care...
Ming Sheng went for a walk again in the fair while waiting for us...
Again... Sorry... Never thought the talk would be so long...
Really sorry if you were bored or even annoyed...

By the time the talk ended... It was time to say FAREWELL to KL...
But before that... We left Siew Teng in KLCC to roam by herself...
She's a Kl gal... Sure she'll know her way there..
And before I left KLCC.. I grabbed myself 2 baguettes form Deli France..
One after another... They were YUMMY-LICIOUS!!!
Sure they'll taste amazing when they're hot!!

The train departed at 6... Reached Ipoh at 9..
And only then i found out... Chan Leong and Meng Chun was on board as well!!!
That makes 12 Sam Tet-ians on the same train!!!!
COOL!!!!

Amazing trip??? To me.. It sure was...
Can't wait for another backpacking experience like this one...
Of course... There was a lot of walking and transits involved...
But who cares??? As long as I had fun!!!!
