Uhuh......Kuala Lumpur.................

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
What is there to say?Last week I went to Kuala Lumpur on Saturday. Pity I forgot to book ourselves a hotel room. I ended up roaming the capital city looking for the perfect and affordable room. All of the hotels are packed. Putra Hotel, Vistana, Plaza, First Business Inn, Grand Continental, Prescott Inn and etc. Finally, at 2.00 pm, we drived out of Kuala Lumpur and ended up shopping in Bentong, Pahang. We stayed in Kristall Inn and have to make up in a big family room, the only room available.

But mind you, if you have a big budget, this might not apply to you. As for me, I am not willing to spend more. The hotel room in Bentong is cheaper compared to Kuala Lumpur. For the same price, the room would be much smaller, but, of course in the heart of a big city with all the amneties you can wish for.

When we arrived in Kuala Lumpur, we were stucked at Chow Kit Road. The shopping complex, Sogo is only around 150 metres away but because of the jammed road, we can only wait. I think we were there around 3 hours before I can actually set my foot on Sogo. People are so packed too like sardines in the can. I  didn't expect this. Been to Kuala Lumpur so many times already. Maybe because it's Kuala Lumpur Festival and shopping fair.

No matter if it's inflation or whatever, Malaysians are still not that poor. If you can't afford shopping in Berjaya Times Square, you can go to Bukit Bintang, if you still can't afford, go to Sogo, still expensive, go to Masjid India. Still expensive, go to Chow Kit. Ha...ha.......Still expensive, go to the RM 2.00 store where everything will cost you the flat price RM 2.00. What I want to express here is, nobody is left out to do their shopping. If you really don't have the money to spend, just go for window shopping. no harm. Totally free.

New school bag

Hi! It's been a long time since my last visit to my own blog. Not being well to write anything. Mind blocked. But, I am still sane, okay. Maybe, just too tired. Hubby working most weekends making me kinda stress a bit. Trapped around this town most of the weeks, makes me really exhausted to work in the weekdays. So, lucky of you out there who still get to enjoy your weekends, I mean both Saturday and Sunday.

Back to talking about my daughter's class. The class is rather intensive and really challenging because my daughter refuse practising at home. Too much activity at home like watching cartoon, playing her nintendo and reading comics, she just can't get enough of everything.

Today, she came back from kindergarden rather sad. Well, troughout yesterday and this morning, she's been talking about her school's drawing competition today. She said she will get a bag as a present. When she entered the car in the evening, her eyes were filled with tears. I wander what was the matter. Ooops! She didn't get the bag she had been talking about. I persuaded her and explained that maybe she didn't colour nice enough to get the present from her teacher. Only two students got the bag and both were her best friends.

I told her it's okay. Mummy can buy you a bag similar to that. So, this evening we had been searching for the particular bag. Fortunately we managed to find one. She became a happy girl all over again. Children. I remember during my school days, I used to sew back my torn old bag, just because I want to help my father save money.
