We exchanged a few lines and, I guess, snoozed off again.
At 9am I was awakened by the weirdest dream... must be the songs from my mp3 playing tricks on me. Since there were no agenda for the day, we took things slow and at a comfortable pace. We kicked the 3rd awake and were at the cafe for a good breakie by 9.45am. Breakfast was not fantanstically fantastic but it was a good start. Eggs, bread, ham and bacon, fruits... who could ask for more?
We were done and satisfied, well, kind-of, by 10.40am. I see the potential of getting some colors on my skin. When was the last time I had a relaxing sun tan and not worrying about skin cancer or blemishes? - 6 years ago, before I embarked on a career in beauty and much paranoia.
We went to the poolside after sending the 'W' back into bed ~ Sleepy head! The laid back sun was playing hide and seek with the flirty clouds and so was not exactly hospitable to me. I had wanted more than I've gotten.
We spent 2 hours at the poolside with our mp3 and just checking how each other has been coping with life - the moment; it was precious! We understood how each other handled different-yet-similar situations and all. It's really true that sometimes we'd need to talk to people to see things from theirs or another angle. And it felt good, there was no rush to do anything or rush anywhere.
We had lunch 2pm as all of us are starved. Pavilion Madam Kwan's was our first choice.
(the lousy camie produced pretty clear photos ya?)I could not even recall what I had ordered. Why wasn't I paying attention?
At lunch, while the conversation went on between them, thoughts of mum rang in my head and I was affected and sad. I urged them to find activities before I sink into another emotional blank stare session.
They wanted Wi-Fi so, Starbucks it is!
It's really amazing that Pavilion is the place to be and be-seen right now. I remembered helping out when the mall was near completion and stores were not fully operational and the mall looked rather empty and cold like a castle. Now, it's a bustling castle!
With a cappucino in hand and my Blinged-Ipod Touch, I conquered emails and Facebook messages with the slow Wi-Fi - Catching up and reading messages friends left me. I felt a chilling pain. Though encouraging, the mails were emotional. No tears fell, they weren't allowed to. Distract Me! I took so much deep breath.....The 2 wanted to visit the IT Mall in KL called Low Yatt and we strolled there. A 25 minutes walk from Pavilion. This mall feels like Sim Lim in Singapore except that everything was in Ringgit.
Strolling on Bukit Bintang.
We spent 2 hours in Low Yat and they'd managed to haul what they came here for. Me, I was just happy to be here. I found that this place is beginning to look like Bangkok! The streets, the overhead train, highways and traffic!
Next up, we wanted to visit a book store. We spent more than an hour in one and guess what? I bought myself a book! How unusual! I saw this whole series and was attracted by the cover and storyline!
They are a series of romantic comedies citing interesting and fictional lifes of topics close to hearts.. at least - my heart! I picked out my first book 'Be Careful What You Wish For' as this has always been my favourite tagline.... and this book sets you thinking - 'Are wishes-come-true a blessing or a curse?'
I was tempted to get the entire series but controlled and remind myself to finish the first for a start. I am sure I will get the rest! *excited*
After our little book shopping, we met a local friend, 'E', for dinner at the new basement of Lot 10. It was a huge foodcourt-ish eating place. I did not have any pictorial record. Guess I was too busy catching up with this dear friend. *smiles*
Dinner was an exchanging session on work and projects but it was sure fruitful and worthwhile. He visited me last year in Singapore and this year, I repaid. :)
After dinner, we bid farewell to 'E' and head on to a KTV in pavilion.
We sang, boozed and laughed!
During the session, its amazing to know all of us have songs that'd make us laugh, make us cry. All of us have a weak and soft spot.
All of us have a past or a part of history filled with regrets and resentment.
All of us needed a break; for whatever reasons.
We started the session at 10am and guess what -> We left at 3am!!!!!!! Madness.
We did not end there. Into a convenient store we strode and picked out more booze for a second round in the apartment. It was amusing and amazing. WE were all tired and sleepless BUT we just wanted to prolong the time we have left there. Perhaps not we, just me, and they were there doing that for me. *hugs*
WE talked and laughed and drank. It was 6am when the session ended. These 3 zombies decided to turn in. I took a really hot shower just hoping it'd wash off my sadness and give me better thoughts.
WE went for breakfast at 8am. Amazing.. It's a brand new day but I have not ended the day before - I have not had my sleep.
End Day 2
