On that day , Alex , Shawn , May Qin and me went on a trip to KL in order to lay siege on Kinokuniya in KLCC . Just the day before , i had been delayed of the approval of going and it wasn't until the morning of the trip ( 7am ) , that i knew for sure that i can go . Though it doesn't matter . I would have walked if they didn't let me . I left house at 7.45 with two messages . Two motherfucking bullshit messages . Forgive me . I suddenly had an urge to swear .
Motherfucking bullshit message no.1 ( From dad ) : Study in KLCC . Don't go around and play .
My Comments : How in the name of who knows who am i suppose to freaking study there ? Dad , are you insane ? Been to a hospital recently to have your brain checked ? And the next bit , KLCC sells stuff at high prices . Do you think i have enough cash to go around and play in KLCC ? Where did your brain go ? i wonder ..
Motherfucking bullshit message no.2 ( From mum ) : Be back latest by 5. You have wasted one day so you need to study .
Comments : I'm no machine . I obviously know my timeslot without you telling me . And yes , i will study when i get back , if i don't fall asleep in exhaustion .
So , with my parent's 'blessings' , i headed to Alex's house . Then , we picked up MQ and Shawn . Then , we went to the train station in Kelana Jaya . Original plan was Carrefour train station but Kelana's was faster . I realised with a pang of regret that i haven't been on a train for 6 years . ( a tiny comfort was MQ hasn't been on a train for 3 years ) . We reached KLCC at about 9-something . A quick breakfast of nasi lemak and teh tarik and we went to Kinokuniya . I also withdrew RM 300 for my expenses ( pain .. ) . Kinokuniya only opens at 10 am so we strolled around the floors looking at stuff . When Kinokuniya opened , we went in and we went straight to the anime selection . Make a guess who dropped her bag at the sight of the wide selection of japanese stuff on sale ? Oops , i gave away the answer .. MAY QIN !!
She did drop her bag and she spent the next two hours at the same section , looking at art books while the rest of us went around looking for our stuff . I know very little about Japanese stuff so i merely looked around at the mangas and jap novels , buying none of them . After that two hours , I had looked through some other parts of the store and obtained three books .
1. Artemis Fowl and The Time Paradox by Eoin Colfer
2. The Associate by John Grisham
3. Home by Marilynne Robinson
Then , we went to a small cafeteria above Kinokuniya ( still in the bookstore ) for a small lunch . I bought a cappuccino and a prata wrap . Delicious . RM14.50 . Deli- crap . Expensive . We chatted for awhile before going back to our raid in Kinokuniya . Incidentally , Shawn managed to find " The Communist Manifesto " by Karl Marx before i did . =.= .
I'm wondering why the hell did i buy cappucino when i hate the taste ..
THE BOOK !!!!
( The Communist Manifesto )
The Problems of Philosophy
a good find by Shawn
Going gaga over the only book MQ bought ( japanese artbook , yes )
1.Artemis Fowl and the Time Paradox by Eoin Colfer - RM34.95
2.The Associate by John Grisham - RM26.32 ( 20% discount)
3.Home by Marilynne Robinson - RM31.60 ( 20% discount)
4.The Zahir by Paulo Coelho - RM27.92 ( 20% discount)
5.For One More Day by Mitch Albom - RM26.36 ( 20% discount)
6.Two Mitsubishi pens - RM 17.80
Which brought the total to RM 164.95 . Not to mention the small lunch of RM14.50 .
So thats RM179.45 gone in Kinokuniya .
Total spent in KLCC - Rm 186.95 ( my nasi lemak and teh tarik breakfast XD )
Total of current expenditures - RM191.45 ( train ticket )
We decided to head to Sungei Wang plaza to an anime shop where they were selling the Clannad DVD . I wanna get it so yea , we went there after an argument about which direction to take . I blame Alex and Shawn for their bickering . lol . We made it to Sungei Wang on our 1.5th attempt ( backtracked at a certain point ) . I bought a cold Nescafe along the way so my total expenditure now is RM 193.45 .
When we reache the plaza , there were many lalas and a concert going on . Lol .. Malaysian performers with inaudible chinese rap . LOL . Went to the third floor and spent sometime browsing the store for anime merchandise . I bought the Clannad DVD for RM40.00 . Cheap for 2 seasons , 4 OVAs , the movie and the After Story soundtrack . Since it was rather cramped , we left the plaza and made our way to the Pavillion , yet another expensive stuff place .
We relaxed at the Old Town White Coffee there and i bought iced cappuccino as well as French toast . Delicious . RM15.00 . At 3 , we left the Pavillion and headed to the Monorail Station just outside . We took a train to Sentral before hopping onto a commuter to the Carrefour station .
'Tai Kors' discussing stuff ..
You do not mess with me ! says Shawn to Alex
Neither should you ! says Alex to Shawn after biting him in the arm ..
Again , thanks to Alex for inviting me .
Total money spent - RM292.15 . urghh ..
I added in RM 40 to get a new calculator which i'm buying on Thursday . I lost my school calculator :( .
All in all , good day .
