ok so im in KL right now and cant decide whether i like it or not. this may have something to do with the lack of sleep recently. you see after the nightmare storm on the perhentians i decided against paying 85 ringgits for a 6hr journey to the cameron highlands and instead decided to pay 35 ringgits to get me to kuala lumpor. i booked with a canadian and unfortuantely his idea of a good bus trip was a sleepless overnight bus trip. so i joined him on this bus trip and once i booked it kicked myself for booking an overnight one. not only that but i had to get the ferry to the mainland at midday yesterday then had 7 hours sitting around doing next to nothing until our bus left at 8:30pm. was an ok joourney until midnight when our driver decided to stop at a restaurant for a break. normally this break would be about 15 mins. but he decided 2hours would be a more reasonable amount of time. and once we set off it was obvius that the driver knew he had a schedule to keep so decided to do the rest of the bends in the road in 5th gear. not too much fun. anyways, we arrived into KL in pitch black at 5am when nothing (not even macdonalds was open) so sat around until we could get the LRT to take us to chinatown where we spent half an hour in the pitch black trying to find me a hostel that didnt want to charge me 150 ringgits for the only remaining room. so i finally found a room in a dorm for 20 ringgits and all is good. we went up the petronas towers to the skybridge which was pretty good then my camera ran out of battery...which was pretty bad. then we went to look in the shops - actually correction - I went to look in the shops - terry was playing cameraman with the buildings and scenery outside. then we took a trip to some lakes and stuff to find this bird park which took about an hour to find...nightmare. i nearly got pecked to death by an enu...actually thats a lie but it did look at me funny! then we got lost trying to find out way back which is always an adventure. then got some noodles, terry left to get his plane and i had a wander around chinatown trying to find a bank. which was pretty hard as they were all closed. (oh and i had the best shower EVER! - i dont stink anymore YEY! its quite bad really, we hadnt showered in so long on the perhentians that we made up a song about getting clean (actually we changed the lyrics to the rock your body(everybody dance now) song). AHEM - wash your body! shampoo everybody! make it clean in this party! dont stop - wash your body!and it went on nutil the 'everybody wash now' section.......and there was no alcohol consumed when this was creat4ed. we also created washing songs for 'part of your world' from the little mermaid, and 'i like the way you move' by some random dude. anyway, enough about my cleanliness (as you can tell im pretty bored and sleep deprived atm!) so, anyway, to cut a long story short (and i can make it long!) i bought a pretty bag in town, then came on the internet. and i may go groove with the locals at the reggae bar soon. will write a blog again soon when i actually have something that is actually interesting to say. infact the most interesting thing about today was terry taking the mickey out of how long i took to cross the road and then promptly tripped over himself - falling up the stairs. i guess you had to be there but im sure he will appreciate me publicly embarrasing him! anyway, next entry - dont know where it will be from yet so you will have to wait and see!
