Gimme Gimme Gimme-Beenie Man

damn!
i've submitted a long post earlier but to my disappointment it somehow disappeared.
and i've to re-type all over again.


i wish i could stay in Malaysia longer,or elsewhere,anywhere but here.
was real busy the moment when i got back to work and had to rush.and i to think back just few days ago we were having a fantabulous time.

the trip was fun-the speed demon crazy bus ride on the dim superhighway and to spice it up there was a collision on the other road direction during our journey,the vehicles involved in the accident was completely shattered and the entire area looked like it was blown up by explosives,but we didn't notice any gory corpses anyway.
i had zero memory of how Melaka looked like and upon arrival the discourteous cabbie driver already painted a bad picture of the historical city.the hotel that we checked in that night was horrendous,and the four of us dubbed the shabby place as 'the worst hotel ever!'the pillows and bed was damp,the door was in a bad shape,the windows unlocked,the floors sticky,the tv which is placed on a rack beside an old creaking creepy cupboard which looked like a confession box and probably troops of ticks inhabiting the interiors as well.instead of resting after about four hours of tiring bus ride,we went out to grab a bite.and at the table sipping our teas and coffees when suddenly one of us blurted,"KL anyone?"and instantaneously everybody agreed.
so we got back,our baggages still intact,we slept with towels wrapped around the pillows and the most uncomfortable rest in a foreign land ever.
the next morning we marched to famosa and followed by breakfast and grabbed our bags and headed down to the bus station.bought ourselves a $13 ringgit coach tickets to kolumpo.$13 ringgit,my goodness,really worth every single cent.
another about an hour and a half journey and we disembarked at puduraya.we tirelessly walked and inhaled the bad pollution and the forever bad traffic condition of busy KL.found ourselves a charming hotel,cheaper than the one in Melaka.Clean with a capital C,comfortable,safe and good service.also quick easy access to bukit bintang area.
but the city is similar to ours,the shopping centres and occasional irritating touts,and the only thing we did was just walking around,stopped for camera poses or Ramly burgers or drinks;we had A&W,Subway,Wendy's and many other tasty food which is deemed non-halal in sg,gobbling it all down and feeling hungry still and if we were to extend our stay longer,it will definitely extend my waistline further.
shopping?forget KLCC or the Times square.the trip will not be complete without visiting Chow Kit and Petaling St-that's where the excitement in fake-brands and bargain-shopping is best done.but just remember if you start bargaining on a particular item,remember to purchase it and don't take pictures anyhow or you will sure be approached by unfriendly folks.

and now we're planning for another getaway soon.a nice place with sunshine,white sandy beaches and comfortable budget rooms.can't wait!
