KL Adventure - Day Five to Day Ten

Day 5 – KL Midvalley Shopping Centre
 The moment we landed in KL, we went out to megamall to shop. There were many familiar shops like Diva, Converse, The Faceshop, KFC..etc. haha. I resistedf on buying anything as we still have lots of other shopping centres to visit in KL! Seeing that I will be shopping around the hotel a lot I decided to wait. The only thing I have bought so far, are coloured contacts! Im excited to wear them! Can’t wait! I bought 4 different pairs for about $17.50AUD each! It was so cheap, considering it was powered and I got a discount! In Australia, they would’ve cost about $50 per pair! Had dinner at a restaurant called delicious. The price was average, cost me about 35RM. I ended up having a warm chicken salad with this mango and lychee drink. That was also average, but the salad was good! I enjoyed that. After eating we decided to see a movie, despite wanting to see repunzel we ended up watching The Tourist at 11:35pm. While waiting for the movie we bought some drinks and snacks. I also bought a Cleo Magazine for 5 RM! That’s like less than 2 dollars! I’m exhausted after the movie, but I enjoyed it! It was a great movie. Although I think I did fall asleep at one point...missed the best part of the movie =(. Oh wells hopefully will get to see tangled tomorrow. We are planning to go to the city and do some more shopping! Can’t wait! Hopefully I will get some good bargins!

Day 6 – KL Shopping Galore
Today was another exhausting day, you must be reading this and thinking,, “you say your tired EVERY day” haha. Its true, I have been. Just been walking eating shopping, more walking, more shopping and then more eating! I can barely finish my meals – no surprise there. Haha. My legs were aching from over 4 hours of shopping today, but it was so worth it! Went to 6 different shopping centers, came out with 4 pairs of shoes, some tops, some gifts and random things!
Can’t wait to go to Petaling street tomorrow to do more shopping! There’s still so many more things I want to buy! So enough about my complaining of sore feet and legs, and more about my day. We started off at Pavilion shopping centre, had breakfast about 10am. Then shopped around abit, they had FOREVER 21!! It was awesome! Only bought a few things that were on sale, nothing really appealed to me. LOL. We did most of our shopping in sungeiwang shopping centre. It reminded me a lot like china and Hong Kong. Lots of people, lots of cheap and fake stuff, lots of bargaining going on. That’s where I did my shoe shopping. They are so comfy! Its unbelievable! Need to buy more gifts over the next few days for people. But should be ok  Hope I have enough money to spend over the next few days – the remaining days of my trip. Not looking forward to the return flight back
                to Melbourne where everything is expensive! After our massive shopping fest, we were going to watch tangled, but we were too late to watch it, and now its not showing in Malaysia anymore  so sad. Shall have to watch it in Melbourne. We also ate at Din Tai Fong! It tasted just as good as it did in Sydney! Was so yummy! After our disappointment of not being able to watch the movie, we went bowling – hate that sport. Always come out with a bruised thumb for some reason. LOL.
It was so cheap, it was about 20 RM which is $6 AUD! Can’t get that in Melbourne, that’s for sure! I was really tired by this time, but carried on to Zouk, where we got a beer tower and Jelly Shots! I had trouble with my jelly...HAHA. but got it out eventually. Was quite tasty! Now Finally in bed, ready for another exhausting (yes EXHAUSTING) day!


Day 7 – KL Sightseeing and Petaling Street
We did a lot today, went to KLCC where we took lots of photos of the Twin towers. We wanted to go up to the bridge, but there weren’t any more tickets available, so we were satisfied with just taking pictures outside. We made our way to the sky deck tower after, in which we paid about 38RM and got to take pictures of the snakes and animals, even having birds sit on us! I was too afraid to have a snake on me though. Hahah. We got pony Rides and got a feel of driving the F1 – Very hard to control the car! At one point, I think I was driving around the wrong way around the track coz I spun out…and didn’t know which way was the right way. Hahaa. We took some nice photos of the view from the tower before making our way to Petaling Street. Man talk about crazy people! They all wanted sales, and they all offered discounts straight away. I had the biggest headache just from the crowd! But I got some good buys, but I think I still like sungeiwang better. Less crazy, lot more “my style” haha. Might go again after the others leave. We finished the night be doing Karaoke Buffet. The food wasn’t that great, average I’d say. It didn’t go downs o well. But the songs were good. Got to sing lot of new songs. The funniest song we sang was “Coz I got High” haha. The lyrics to that song were just soo funny! Tomorrow will be a lazy day, for sure!

Day 8 – KL – MegaMall and Jagoya
Today was a sleep in day, we all split up and did our own things. I slept in until about 10, woke up and went out shopping. Bought a few things for family and then went out for lunch at Din Tai Fung. It was so yummy! Had their Mango Pudding, and was so full I couldn’t finish it! Afterwards, we walked around for a bit before buying cake and flowers to surprise our friend for her birthday (which was a month ago) but on the request from her bf, we decided to celebrate it in KL since she had been wanting to celebrate it overseas. IT is also another friends last day, as he is returning back to ,Melbourne, meaning I am now alone in my hotel. Not long before my other friends will be leaving to go on their own adventures before we all reunite back in Melbourne, back at work. I can’t believe how fast the holidays have gone by. Im missing everyone at work, realizing they are all backa t work today.
Can’t wait to see them again on my return. One week left! Anyways, we went to Jagoya Japanese Buffet in starhill which was amazing. There was so much food I didn’t know what to eat! So I took a bite out of everything and went out to get more food! So had lots of left over food, but I just couldn’t eat anymore! They had a large variety from sushi to oysters from chocolate fountains to ice kechang and many more! We then headed back to Zouk at The Gardens to get a few drinks. The bar tender was nice enough to give us free tequila shots, which was nice of them. Not enough to get us a drunk, but enough to get us HIGH. Hahaha! Disappointed that everything had closed by this time (which was about 1am) we all went back to our rooms to sleep. Tomorrows plans are to go to Sunway. Shall be a good day!

Day 9 – KL – Sunway Pyramid
Today was a fun day. We headed out to Sunway Pyramid Shopping centre at about 10am. We didn’t do much shopping but managed to take sticker photos, go to fish spa, ice skating and even went to Jusco to buy some undergarments. LOL. Just a relaxing day. I think I will need to go back to Sunway to have a look around and do some more shopping though. We even got to do some shopping at the Malaysia Daiso! It was awesome! Everything was 5RM! Which is like $1.50 AUD! The one in Australia is $2.80, so much more cheaper! We then went back to Midvalley and relaxed for an hour or so before heading out to dinner. We went to have Roti, but the service was horrible and the waiter couldn’t understand us! It was so frustrating! I think it also gave me a stomache ache, or almost did anyways! We Finished the night by drinking and bowling. HAHAHA.
I lost the first 2 games, made a slight comeback in the third, The last game was hilarious. We decided to do CRAZY bowling. What is CRAZY bowling you might ask? Well…every time we bowled, we would bowl in a crazy way. We first started with bowling upside down/ backwards, then we did some hopping, some blind bowling, some side hopping, leg crossing, some kicking and even spinning! Hahaha. Was a fun game! I managed to get a strike with my upside down one! That was awesome HAHAH. Then we went to the archade game and I played DDR with my friend. But it was so funny, we were just being so silly! Hahaha. Finally finished playing at 12am. Now getting ready for a night rest before going to Genting tomorrow! How exciting! Can’t wait to go on all the rides!!!

Day 10 – KL – Genting Theme Park
We went to Genting Theme Park today! It was awesome! It took u about 1hr from Midvalley though. On the way to genting, we stopped by some tourist attraction areas such as the hanging stone and temple to take some photos. Genting was quiet as we were there early and because all the kids are back to school, so the lines for the rides weren’t as long as we thought they would be. Managed to go on all the major rides we wanted to go on. Some were closed for maintenance which was a shame, but we spent a good day there. Only down side was the annoying people who didn’t know how to act properly in public and the really bad odour of the rides. It stunk so bad! Especially the superman ride! We missed out on doing sky diving, which would’ve been a great experience. They said it took 45 minutes to prepare for the ride, which only took about 2 minutes. It was crazy! But it was pretty cheap…about $12 AUD.
My favorite ride was the big drop. It was amazing! It was scary as we went up the ride because we just kept going up and up! We were practically level to the clouds! That’s how high the mountain was already! We left Genting about 5pm. We then headed off to basamalam night market, which I managed to get some good buys. They were selling fake eyelashes at 1RM per pair! A box 10 eyelashes was like 3RM! It was so good! Although it did start to rain towards the end of night which sucked, and the market was packed wth cars and people coming from every direction! It was crazy! I got this really cute Sheep pillow. Hehe. It’s also foldable which I thought was pretty cool. Can hug it to sleep for the next few nights since I’m along in Malaysia now. The others are off on their mini adventures to Hong Kong and Singapore. Not long to go before I am back in Melbourne. Thinking of going to Pavilion tomorrow, just got some last minute shopping to do.
