5 Days at KL

As all of you might already know, KL which is also Kuala Lumpur - It's like the New York in Malaysia. In fact, it's not even close to New York yet. Anyway, you can experience the life of a city there - your surroundings are filled with skyscrapers, shopping malls are almost everywhere, you see tourists everywhere, and you can't differentiate who's the local over there, strangers talk to you and you are handsome and pretty over there. Why? Because they greet you as lengzai and lenglui.

If you ask me if I want to live the rest of my life over there. The answer is no. I don't think many people lives there, they only work there. That is a place for you to visit, not for you to live. If you happen to like the lifestyle over there. I donno' what's wrong and why's that. I'm not saying that you're wrong if you happen to LOVE the lifestyle over there, but it's just so packed, so jammed and so noisy. The pace is so fast, and it doesn't seem peaceful there.

However, it's heaven there if you love shopping and eating expensive food. I believe architecture students would love to visit such a place because the architecture over there is 100x better than what we have in Kuching. Of course living in Selangor seems fun and proud compared to the rest of the states because they make us feel like Kampung kid.

Overall, it was a new experience for me, to be able to travel with my friends. Although some of the visits were boring, I think it's still pretty worth it as I don't think I will ever visit those place ever again on my next visit.

Actually it's a 4 days trip but my gang happen to arrive there earlier due to the flight ticket. The second day was the visit to Limkokwing Cyberjaya campus. Basically, that campus kicked our arse. I don't think I need to elaborate more. The third day was about visiting MATRADE and SRI PENTAS. What I THINK of Matrade is a waste of resources - it's huge, it's grand and it's kinda EMPTY. I really feel that place is a waste of resources, really..

On the other hand, Sri Pentas was the real deal. It's really worth visiting the place where Malaysian's movie are made. We witnessed how 1FM's recording room looks like, and 8TV's office and also the creative department's office. It is the place where real graphic designers work. We were exposed to a room full of designer's working place.

For the next two days, we spent a day at Sunway Lagoon and Sunway Pyramid and we happen to roam around in Bukit Bintang on the last day of our trip. Sure I bought some shirts and stuffs home. But to think of it, I really regretted to not buying more. Why? It's not like I can go KL every year..
