Four Days in KL

Hooray...I'm back to "HOME SWEET HOME". No place is better than my humble abode. My four days in the city was 50-50 pleasant and unpleasant.

Tired la....you know lah...sit and listen to endless dialogues thru out the day.

I attended a boring seminar and I don't know whether it was due to the fact that the speakers were dealing with a topic which was certainly of no interest to me or because these guys kept on droning on and on for hours in a monotonous tone. I had deliberately lost him in the first 30 minutes of his talk. I nearly dozed off on many occasions even though I had cups of caffein just before the seminar. It's not my norm to consume coffee.....but because I'm dead bored...

Don't ask me what I gained from this seminar...I asked a friend sitting next to me if she understood anything. She had been listening attentively (or so I thought). She shooked her head. Guess I wasn't the only one who feel this way. I felt relieved when I noticed a few guys in the rows behind me dozing off.

It's funny but I suddenly realised that a lot of renowned academics have such poor presentation skills. Then I thought to myself "Am I this boring as well when I am with my own students ?". I don't think so but it is something I have to watch out now as I am on the way to become a successful academician as well. hahahaha

Now..back home....I'm just too tired and needed some rest badly. I often experienced "insomnia" when I'm out of town. I can't get used to the new environment. I need at least a month to do so..which is rediculous if I need to be away for short duration...like holiday or courses.



I simply hated boarding at hotels...I just can't tolerate the bedsheets, carpeted flooring, narrow bathroom....etc. The enclosed environment with hardly any fresh air often drive me up the walls. . And usually, participants get to eat 5-6 times per day. Too much food with no form of movements @ exercise tend to make my tummy goes haywired. Food goes in but not the other way round....may cause lots of discomfort. (U know what I mean here...hahaha). Air cond isn't good for the skin as it dehydrate the body fluid..so gotta drink plenty of liquid daily.
OK....I'm ain't a health specialist..so don't wanna brag too much. hahahaha

Thru out my 4 days in the city..I only get to tour KL on the final day as our schedules were pretty tight. You see...we stayed at one hotel which sat right at the heart of KL...and I got the chance to see KLCC from my room each nite...but are unable to set foot there. hahahaha.



I admired the beautiful concrete jungle over there..as I don't get to see them back in Pg. Therefore..I usually stay late till midnite starring at the window like a "jakun lady". My room mate whom is from another sch in PG was not as 'kampung' as me...coz she frequent to KL. As for me....5 years baru visit KL sekali.. hahahahahahaThose picturesque of night scenes of the Klang Valley was indeed breathtaking. Beautiful neon lights wrapping the high rise towers....and mind you..KL people never sleep. The streets are always busy even in the wee hours of the morning. Wonder why huh...? Everywhere is crowded. Traffic heavy. Everyone is moving at such a face pace....unlike Pg..where we could still take stroll along the beach admiring life that comes by.

But city dwellers..guess they don't get the chance to do so....! That's one thing that these people are lack off....they don't have the time to admire nature. PITIFUL huh..esp for young children....whom are forced to grow up in such environment. Guess these youngsters don't get the opportunity to see a real cow or buffalo, paddy fields or even shaddy fruit tress in their surroundings. Everywhere is full of buildings and pollutions. Perhaps some don't even see a coconut tree b4...except for those coconut fruit they could obtain from the shelves...!

So....living in the city has it's pros and cons....which ever lifestyle you choose.....depends on you...yourself. What say you...any comments..!!!!!
