KL Trip - Day 2 ( 26/2 )

We woke up around 6am to get prepared for the award ceremony...
We'll be having our breakfast at the executive lounge at 7am then set off at 8am.
We're supposed to register ourselves at 8am...
but since the ceremony begins at 8.30am, so...don't care too much la... =P

The shortest and the tallest....

we're the executives...

having breakfast at the executive lounge...

The breakfast is nice...
they even have smoked salmon and yogurt...yummy...
and we doesnt need to snatch food with the other guests since we choose to have our breakfast at the executive lounge...

We have to check out from the hotel since we're only sponsored for 1 night...sien...
we're going to move to Jimmy's house that day.

After checking out, we proceed to Sime Darby convention centre which is not far from our hotel and registered ourselves at the counter.

we each got a file and a free new issue of futurearc magazine...wow...dat'll save me Rm20+ for buying it.

To our delight, we're seated at the VIP table !!!
There are about 10 VIP table out of maybe 20 or 30 tables...and what's good is that there's only 6 people out of 10 seated at our table...

Han Chee nodded off for a while...

Next was the Award ceremony which everyone 'woke up' suddenly...full of energy...
They announced all the winners except for the malaysia's. Keeping the best for the last.
There are only 3 malaysian winners..the rest are from singapore, thailand n indonesia...

They use only 2 weeks to do this proj out of the given 3 months...

Tiong represent the group to receive the certificate.
We received the $6000 revit autodesk software license each, 2 days training for the software at s'pore next month and a 2-years of futurarc subscription ( wa..i love this ! That means i can save abt Rm200 to buy the magazines for the rest of the 2 years...hehe... )

We go and meet with one of the panel of jury, Dr. Deo Prasad to ask for his comments on 'our' work after the forum ends.
We're told that most winners are final years. that means these 4 2nd year people are reli powerfull...

KL trip - Day 1 ( 25 / 2 )

After going back to UTM on Sunday ( a day after Jay's concert ), I was back to KL again on the next day ( to attend the FuturArc award ceremony ), talk about stupidity...

But hey, I'm a hardworking student who'll submit her work eventhought she's not able to attend studio on monday night wat... =P

Tiong, Jimmy, Chiou Yann, Han Chee and i took off around 10am with Tiong driving.

The 'cute' Driver...

with one of his CUTE passenger...muahahaha...



yeah yeah~ Tiong's camera lens is going to melt soon with me camwhoring all the time..

such a long way to go~

Having lunch at a deserted A&W whose staff's job is only to wipe the tables and glass over and over again till it shines everyday...

no wonder restaurants that has no customers are always the cleanest...

I'm so man...muahahaha...

erm....ghost ?

someone getting pregnant after drinking the A&W's root beer...hmm...


After about 4 hours of driving , we reached KL and finally checked in to Eastin Hotel, a 4 Star Hotel.

We stayed at Executive Floor...and it's RM690 per nite...
And what's good about this is that we don't even need to pay a single cent.
All the transportation and accommodation are sponsored by BCI Asia. How good is that ?
no more squeezing...we can each have our own bed !

same floor as the presidential suite neh~hehe

And we ( Jimmy actually...hehe ) did a very stupid thing...
The Presidential Suite is on our left side, just right after we step out of the lift. Jimmy thought that we have to access the door first in order to enter the corridor leading to our rooms so he quickly insert the room card in the slot but the door wouldnt open.
He tried again and again but still the door laugh at him and say : ' nenenenene~ i won't open for u'......muahahaha....

It was then Han Chee saw another corridor on the other side which open up to a series of room doors and that prooves that Jimmy was opening the wrong door. The door that he was trying to access is the one and only Real Presidential Suite. hahaha....

Our room opposite the guys...

inside.....

We love free stuffs !

go green~ no wonder BCI Asia wan us to stay in this hotel...

posing some more...

somebody just wouldn't grow up....

including me...=P ( i'm inside the closet )

camwhoring in the toilet...

camwhoring everywhere....

tsk tsk tsk....

that guy behind me still camwhoring....

Aiyoyo...this gal...i donno her...

The room has everything....internet ( which one of the guy snatched my line... hmm! ), iron, iron board, hairdryer, shower and bath tub ( separated ), bed, pillow, carpet....lalala....=P

We left the room around 5pm and started to explore the place...
We went to the Executive Lounge which was just 1 floor below and it's only accessible by guests who stay on the Executive Floor ( that's us ! )
The place feels grand ( ok, i was exaggerating... ), nice and comfortable...
There's a TV area, books and magazine corner, computer with free internet access and tables for dining purposes...

I never felt so 'important' before....until now. hehe...

Jimmy couldn't stop himself for being a model eversince the photo-shooting session...

Tiong brought us to Bukit Bintang to have our dinner at a Thai Restaurant called the Green Lotus after that.

The green Lotus with nice interior design...

The super duper nice Tomyam soup....

The Mandalay set...Rm16++

The food tasted SUPERB and the price is quite ok for food this delicious...Yummy !!!!

We then go shopping after dinner...it's always good to 'exercise'....muahahaha...
The guys bring us to Starhill Gallery...which has nice interiors and washrooms which are even more grand than my house.

We're inside space..

inside the toilet...there's a toilet ah ma who'll spin that thing to produce water for u to wash hand...talk about good service...



I love the wall....mmm...

We crossed the road to the Pavilion after that...

There's many things i've fallen in love with...but no $$ to buy lo....
We just walk around and Tiong, who are badly in need of underwear, failed to find what he wants...
poor guy... =P

We bought a box of Donuts from J.co before going back...and it tasted superb !
We went back soon after that, feeling tired and sleepy....
And we got a nice surprise from the hotel....

tada~! Free fruit !

These really make me feel like in heaven...

*drooling~~~~*

We love J.co's Donuts !!!!!!

Our plan of going clubbing at the Rush after that didnt work out as we're all too tired...

We gals took turns soaking ourselves in the bath tubs....and mmmmmmm.....it's really relaxing !
If only there's body massage after that....muahahaha....

I fell asleep on the bed right after taking bath ( i plan to nap a while only then go clubbing lei ) only wake up to find they already switched off the light and it's 3am in the morning...

-exciting day ahead -
