Life In The Big Apple

2/14/2007 09:34:00 PM Ok, even though I never went out with "her", my last and final Valentines Day in Malaysia turned out to be the best one ever. Mostly thanks to her, Vincent, Melissa and Tsing Yie. Woke up around 10am, washed up, got dressed, then took the car keys and made a beeline to Leisure Mall. Lucky for me they didn't raise the price of the roses there like in Petaling Street. So I decided to buy a rose on the way out. Went to the supermarket to get some ferrero roches after that. The time was only like... around....10.30am so I still had time since she was probably still having her driving lessons. So I wandered over to the Vietnamese restaurant near Fitness First to go and bother Wing Tsun. Unfortunately, he's not there. So then I decided to see if Wing Hong is working, but I didn't see him as well. In the end after all that wandering and stuff I decided to buy a rose and check out of the place (I later learnt that Kathryn and Hui Wen was actually at Sushi King the whole time). After buying the rose, I "attempted" to go pay for the parking ticket. After I inserted the card in the APM, a big fat "UNREADABLE CARD" was displayed. So, I went up to the 1st floor APM and tried to pay there but ended up with that "UNREADABLE CARD" thing again. After that I decided to go and pay at the counter. Walked there and there was no one behind the counter. At that point I was getting really annoyed. So I walked all the way to the information counter near Secret Recipe and Mcdonalds and the lady behind the counter told me to go to the operations room on the 3rd floor carpark. Well bottomline I finally got out and then went over to her hse, parked, gave her a call, no answer which means she's still driving then decided to wait. No more than 5 minutes later a blue Kancil was driving up the road with a big blue and red L on it. I gave the stuff to her, the rose, the chocolates, the necklace, the keychain and that small lil picture thingy with 2 pigs... hahaha... Well nonetheless it was my first time giving someone something on Valentines Day.


At around 7pm++, I drove over to Tasik Selatan LRT Station to pick Vincent up. I gave a call to Moi and asked him about the SEA Forensics at ISKL. This is the first time since I started going for it that I missed the 1st day of the competition. I heard that Gus did really well in his OI, getting a rank of 1,1 while in solo acting he got a ranking of 1,3 and it was in a room where the most promising actors were in, 2 other contestants got a rank of 1,3 and 2,2. In other words, Gus and the 2 other actors are tied with the highest score in that room. Well I had to wait for a really long time for Vincent to arrive and we had to go over to his place first cause he doesn't want to go to Mid Valley wearing a light blue t-shirt, shorts and slippers. So by the time we picked Melissa and Tsing Yie up, it was already 9pm. We made our way to Mid Valley which was still quite jammed up even at that time. In the carpark I was cursing out loud over and over again when some idiot went and stole my parking space. Horned at him too. And the #$*&^# bugger didn't even look at us. Well I found one in the end after some time. Lucky! We almost ate Thai food and Nandos but in the end, Vincent treated us to dinner at Madam Kwan's. the bill was at Rm111. Which was less than the time Vince, Phi and I ate at Chilis. And this is with 4 of us eating. We joked around alot as well. By the time we were done, most of the shops has already closed or were closing. We went to the bowling alley and ta-da~, it was still open. The girls didn't wanna play though there was one part of our conversation that was funny.

Me : Vincent wants you girls to play, he says he want to trash you.
Tsing : *with a smile on her face* He can't beat me. (or something like that)
*Vincent ended up with that blur, dumbstruck look on his face whenever he gets countered*
I think she wounded his pride or something.

Ok let me see, Cosmic Bowl, a very interesting place, at around 11, the normal lights will be turned off, all the lanes will be bathed in ultraviolet light causing the pins to glow, plus there's a disco ball there too. But both me and Vincent hated the bowling there. We have a feeling that the lanes are not flat cause all of our bowling balls tend to swerve to the right side of the lane and then into the gutter. So, I still prefer Ampang Bowl at Times Square.
