This is KL (again). THis time I made the trip alone, meeting up with a colleague who was flying in from Shanghai. And because she flew in late, I actually managed to finish what I needed to do and went shopping among other stuff!!!! :) Good trip!New Favourite Hotel in KL - Grand Hotel Maya.

I'm too lazy to do one this year, so will update last years'. Might as well, no? Anyway, definitely a good time to take stock as to how my wishes have changed."So here goes...(1) The Denim Skirt I saw in Zara - No longer needed; got myself one during the Mango Sale.(2) Canvas Belt from Mango (That one) - Can't even remember which one.(Kng Suannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5759235.post-1166750015647093732006-12-22T09:05:00.000+08:002006-12-22T16:15:07.346+08:00Let's see now - It's been nearly three weeks since I logged onto Blogger and made a proper post?Yeah, pretty much that.Been too busy for my liking - I stare at the computer every day at work so much so that when I come back I do not wanna switch on my lappie at all.

I went back to work on a Saturday for the first time in my working life.What else... been having loads of fun. Trying out new stuff. :)And I travelled!!!Yes!

Intention was to go cycling, and to be honest, I find it funny that I, the one who cannot cycle ends up organising a cycling trip. Anyway, venue was changed from East Coast Park to West Coast Park cuz all of us live in the West anyway.Reached West Coast Park and then realised that there wasn't actually a bicycle rental shop there!

Wow! Probably longest record of inactivity!!!! Not much going on anyway, other than loads of work, and loads of other stuff, and even more work.Anyway, Corinne May's Christmas Concert on 16 December! Hands up for those who wanna go!!! Having missed her National Day Eve Concert last year, I am SO not going to miss this.

I have never been a resort person, never been one to lie around and laze away. Cities are more my kind of thing, I reckon. The culture, the food, the hustle and bustle of the locals, I just wanna go out and explore what there is to offer, rather than sit and lie around.But I discovered that sometimes lying around and spa-ing the day away (in Hwei Shan's Kng Suannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5759235.post-1160930341309260412006-10-16T00:27:00.000+08:002006-10-16T00:54:26.976+08:00Blogger's really slow. Won't let me upload my Langkawi pictures. Hmph.Anyway, went driving today. Got the Ice Man (also known as A) again. Quite pissed off, cuz I was expecting it to be my favourite instructor (otherwise known as B), but it wasn't. Ice Man wasn't vain today though. Never once did I see him examine his face. Miracles do exist! ;) Nonetheless, had fun driving though.

To be honest, I don't think I can tell you A LOT about KL, this place I was at from Wednesday to Saturday.However, I certainly can tell you a lot about the hotel I've stayed in.
