Sayonara to downtown

Sayonara, sayonara...sampai berjumpa lagi. That song reminded me of my campus life orientation week. It might be useful to describe my post today. I'm leaving the busy neighbourhood of Jln. Yap Kwan Seng for another place in Ampang.

I'll be missing the busy and chaotic atmosphere. It was a great chance taking a job in the big city. Too bad it lasted for only 4 months.

My last day started off receiving a surprise quotation at my frequent mamak shop for my usual sandwich & canned nescafe. "Semua rm3.40 bos. Huh?! Selalu rm3.30 aje? Itu necafe sudah naik 10 sen, bos...sekarang satu ringgit sembilan puloh sen". Dang. 4 months, 10 cents increased for my breakfast. Lucky last day...hehehe.

The remaining 8 hours was 30% work & 70% non-work stuff. The following might be a summary of the things I'll miss :


  1. Beef fried rice for lunch at avenue K
  2. Cheap nasi kandar at KLCC
  3. Tuna/sardin sandwich & cekik darah canned nescafe from the mamak news stand
  4. The sight of arrogant looking arabs & stylish koreans student at the fountain
  5. Late evening cityscape of towering KLCC from the meeting room
  6. View of Yap Kwan Seng traffic jams during rainy rush hours
  7. View of Klang Gate ridge from the pantry window
  8. Friday prayers at the peaceful & spacious Maluri mosque

To all my ex-colleagues, it's been nice knowing you guys.
