Trio Part II

After the fateful trip, stopover at my place and meanwhile Leen browsed for hotels on my pC for good, less exorbitant hotels in town. Upon locating an available hotel, we grab a cab and rushed to Hotel Royal, Stevens Road. Very Japanese/Chinese oriented customers where the elderly staff was barely cordial. Hotel to be avoided unless absolutely desperate. After lying our way through(due to only 2 per room so we lied to say 1 wont stay the night), we prepared for the night to Hard Rock. The irony was, Conrad hotel housed Hard Rock Hotel as part of its architecture but we rushed all the way to Singapore to party at Hard Rock; Raggae Night , through and through! Den we proceeded to the nearest 7-11 in search for food before heading for the comfortable sanctuary of our hotel room. Fizah as usual aimed for the chair and Leen for the bed. Me, I conked out immediately! Next morning is a work day!

The all griLs trip began on 15 April wif Leen and Fizah departing at 7.45am by bus to Larkin Bus Interchange, JB and me departing at 9.45am on 16 April the via the same route. My on-the-road view After a short walk around the bus station, I headed straight to Conrad Hotel with my heavy duffel bag to meet with problems at the hotel as they did not keep door cards to patrons cos its digital and issue a new one to every customer. She did not remember that my fren left a key for me either. Service crap. The patrons behind waited for quite a while before they angrily asked for attention. Finally reaching the hotel room, I managed a whole show of Hindi movie before the girls returned from their more happening time-spent trip from Genting. My not-so excellent View from Conrad Hotel (See the lousy view surrounding it?) All geared trio After an hour of chilling, moved on to the next itinery on their list; dinner. I opted for Malaysia's infamous Nasi Kandar(translated to Nasi Campur) . This ...

A chill out day for me as I realise the lack of sleep the past days have been taking its toll on me. But I hel on as I proceeded to my planned event for the vening after a hard day' s work. 1st appointment: Watch Hindustan movie upon reaching the designated theatre late...(no excuse), an angry Majdiah stood with her claws outstretch and eyes narrowed... Heehhehhe... no lah... She was jus less cordial but I would have reacted the same in her position. But the rushed trip made by Muhadah, Juani and me was flowing down the drain as the hindustan show sucked! and the good one is much later! So we watched the all-star malay show SEMBILU 2005 ... You might as well have this show in Part 1 and Part 2 immediately cos the show tentatively had no proper start and no proper end... What in the world??? Putting an all-star cast to the pits. So the apparent end was so-called a new style of ending to Malay movies dat has evolved over the years from the happily ever-after ending. There we were in ...
