Painting KL red

All HEAVEN broke lose after I handed in my Company assignment.

:)

And it came in the form of retail therapy! Though I didn't buy much, it was a great relief and break away from the hectic week I had.

Have I mentioned that assignments are totally "HEALTHY" for your mind and body? Hope you catch what I mean, not literally, mind you.

Anyway, HUIXIN was in KL last Friday! The timing was absolutely perfect as Friday was the day I handed in my assignment. Clever clever.

This time, she brought along Sooi Pheng, her new housemate, whom I didn't get to meet the last time I went to Kampar for a short stay.

So I headed to KL Sentral right after class to wait for her train to arrive from Kampar.

The train was delayed by about 3o mins or longer. They were scheduled to leave KL on the same day using the 6p.m. train. So they had roughly about 5 hours plus in KL only. I was worried at first, that they will not be able to accomplish much in such a short period of time, what with the number of places we had in mind.

Anyway, I was proven wrong. We had ample, ample time to...


Enjoy a sumptous pizza lunch at Papa John's in Times Square. The longggg wait for the food was worthwhile cos the pizza was amazing. Cheesy and with top notch ingredients. The pastry was so good, it remained just as yummy and fresh when the pizza got cold; unlike that in Pizza Hut where it gets all chewy and hard. The breadsticks were awesome too. And the pastry tasted super with the accompanying cheese garlic butter dip. Definitely a must-go for the cozy ambience and quality Italian pizza;


Shop about in Times Square. Huixin bought a ton of clothing and SP bought shampoos and tops. Oh! I had like the worst (and cheapest) pearl milk tea there. The pearls were so soft and not chewy like normal, the milk tea was of the right consistency but it tasted oddly like incense, I think. So I reckoned that they used really low grade and cheap jasmine tea mixed with the normal tea to create this ultimate disaster. Its cheap cos its only RM2.30, cheaper than the BEST in Miri by 20sen. But my policy is to finish up my food anyhow, so I finished the drink in about 10 minutes, all the while trying to ignore the funny smell;


Shop about in Pavillion. Ah! I've always loved Pavillion. And there were CNY deco outside the mall already! This time, I remembered that I brought my camera so we took some pictures outside the mall before going in. Oh, Huixin and SP bought a pair of flats each from Cotton On;

Walk a 10-15 minute walk to KLCC. I was surprised that KLCC was actually that near to Pavillion. It really saved us the travelling money and time! Plus, with company, the walk seemed shorter than what it should be. After we were done with KLCC, Huixin and SP still had about 45 mins to board their train. What efficient time management! *proud*

So we boarded the LRT back to Sentral, where they tapao-ed McD for dinner inside the train. After that, we said goodbye and I headed back to Bangsar...


************************

to the next outing - Dinner at Sakae Sushi, Bangsar Village II and desserts at Baskin Robbins with Joyin and Adeline!

Only returned back to my place at 9.30p.m. Phew.

*************************

Overall, it was a fun-filled (but tiring) day. Its always good to have a girls day out, especially a guilt-free one post-assignment. And I was so proud that I managed to exercise plenty of self-control in not shopping much! *gives self a congratulatory pat on the shoulder*

Pictures!



Huixin and Sooi Pheng.




And I.



Droolworthy Papa John's!
