KL trip was fun, albeit a bit tiring… we took the 2-level Aeroline coach from Harbourfront Centre… the ride took us 5 hours… the seats were styled like those onboard planes… but wif more leg room… similarly, food, water and hot beverages were oso served on the coach… there is a toilet on board the coach, but very very small, and only for light usage, which the crew constantly emphasized to us… :P
Our hotel – Corus Hotel, is very conveniently located, just 5 minutes walk from the KLCC. We spent our 3 days window-shopping at KLCC, Berjaya Times Square (which is very big, but shops on the higher floors are still not opened), Bukit Bintang Plaza, Lot 10, Sungei Wang, and Chinatown… a lot of time was spent walking for many hours since mornings till late afternoons… our legs were so tired upon returning to hotel…
We wanted to visit the Petronas Twin Towers twice on Saturday and Sunday… but the 1,320 free tickets were fully distributed very early! On Sunday, we reached there just before 8.30am, the official time when the distribution started, but the queue was oredi super long, snaking nearly the whole of the holding area…. We thot should just have our breakfast 1st, then join the queue again…. But who knows by the time we had had our breakfast @ around 9.30am, all the tickets are oredi fully distributed! OMG! The wonders wat free stuff can do!
We reached Singapore on Monday, around 9pm… half an hour later than the estimated journey time, probably cos there was a slight jam at KL when we left the hotel… met his parents at the Caribbean for a while as we had parked Pooh-canto at their carpark during our trip… his parents oso hadn’t had dines, so we went for a late dines cum supper at Telok Blangah….
The very next dae, both of us went back to work… & me started my 1st dae @ work @ PMO PSD… initially wanna start work on 28 Mar 07, so as to have 1 more dae of rest after the KL Trip… but was asked to start work earlier as 27 Mar is the PSD Advance 2007, something of a Work Plan Seminar for the new FY ahead… so morning was spent in a bit of orientation around the office and setting up of my laptop… afternoon was spent at The Legends Fort Canning Park… so my 1st dae @ work was pretty “zo-bo”… most of the execs are very new too, while the support staff are more experienced… v typical of civil service…
Todae is heavier, wif my Reporting Officer briefing me on my duties… afterwhich was reading up on the many procedures and files so as to familiarize myself wif the work… seems challenging daes ahead….
