Kuala Lumpur

-Kuala Lumpur is an interesting place in Malaysia because you can find almost anything there from great food to great bargains as long as you know where to go. Since K.L. is very big the best shops often hide in the places you least expect to look, the best food could be found behind the big building like the malls there. We as Malaysian love cheap stuff and K.L is the best place to find it, from designer bags to hand woven baskets since the last time I went there.
-These days I started to hate it if I have to travel to K.L. because of the over crowdedness, the increase in shop lots and the confusing new roads. K.L. has grown since I actually went there and not pass by it which was actually in 1993 to 1994. The last time I actually went to K.L. was when my cousins came to visit. We had lunch there at a Korean shop in a mall and the food was literally terrible and terribly expensive.
-It was not a good start for our visit to K.L. as usual things became bad to worse when we got separated from my brother. He went out of the mall to have a smoke and ask me to bring them on a tour to look around the mall. When we walked for some time I forgot where we were, I was confused because the mall was huge and I just forgot where I placed my bread crumbs. After I noticed I was lost so begins the treasure hunt for my brother, I called him and started searching for key places in the mall. Since I was not familiar with the mall, I started asking around where these places and because I was afraid of feeling humiliated I pretended to be a foreigner by copying my cousins accent.
-After searching for my brother nearly a half an hour of search we found him waiting at the entrance of the mall. So after another bad experience we decided to watch a movie at the cinema at another mall, there was a long list of new movie my brother wanted to watch but almost the entire movie on the list I have already watched when I was at Sunway Pyramid. So we decided to watch the latest new release which was Robin Hood, but the movie does not start for an hour and since the closest place to sit down and wait was Baskin Robbins. I did not like Baskin Robbins because I am really the type of person who does not want to waste any of my families’ money unless I really have to. So I decided not to have one but was forced by my brother to choose one. I was just about to choose a flavour when one of my cousins whose age was 30 but still acts like a 10 year old child cuts me off and said that she has chosen a flavour for me. Since they were from far away my brother gave them a choice of two flavours but this genius when and took three flavours and without any of us knowing about it. My brother and I were shocked because never have we or my family ever took more than one.
-We entered the theatre to enjoy the movie after an expensive enjoyment of ice cream. We were seated and the movie started, after a half an hour I started feeling kicks on my back. I thought it was just my imagination since I have back problem due to a sport injury but then it kept on repeating. I turned around to see who was the one kicking my seat and saw it was a little kid on a family movie day for them I guess so I did not wanted to ruin they’re day since my day was ruined anyways so how would another incident could ruin my day. The day ended with a disaster for me for my latest visit in K.L. after almost 13 years since I really spent my time in K.L. plus it was raining when we wanted to go home.
-Everything changes after a period of time and a city was no exception, new buildings and higher prices is something I should have expected since my last visit. Time can really change anything but Kuala Lumpur could not change the fact that I really hate to travel there.
