Manic Friday – Part 2

Where were we? Oh yes, Winzy said she could drive us to KLCC.

We got there safely, parked her car and made our way to the Selangor Dredging Building. The sun was shining right above our heads, panas…with less than a breeze blowing. But we didn’t take too much notice because we were too busy gossiping (about the accident-lah what else). Finally we got into the building, shade..cool air. Alhamdulillah. We looked around for the correct address. Found it. Yes, its the correct one. We were greeted by a couple of security guards, who proceeded to scan our handbags with a metal detector. Hmmm…dejavu…do they want us to open our shoes next? :)

Walked passed the security peeps, and the second security thingy. Stepped into the huge white area…air conditioning..aaahhh…best!

Walked in, there were lots of people milling around. Mostly foreigners I noticed, with Middle Eastern or Eastern European features and dressed like students complete with knapsacks and all. There was a long table with a few staff manning the desk, but it was busy. Lots of people queueing. Then my eyes caught a lone figure perched behind a tiny desk, and the sign says “Reception”. He had curly hair, longish,cut a little bit above the shoulders with a black headband holding it back (David Beckham style…:) ). He was nice enough to oblige by putting MC on the line. I left the documents that she wanted with him.

Meanwhile Winzy is playing around with the computer…IELTS..*click* dates, *double click* exam, procedure, fees. Interesting. We asked IZ (that was his name, I asked..) where we could purchase the IELTS specimen book. “Akak nak senang ke susah? Kalau biasa kena ambik number dan queuelah, kalau nak senang, akak kasi duit kat saya, saya amikkan untuk akak.” Isk budak ni, mestilah nak senang. So we ordered two from him.  Thanks a bunch. While I waited for the receipts, Winzy browsed through some pamphlets. Oh sorry, did I forgot to mention, if you havent guessed yet. We were at British Council. :)

After that we mosied on back to KLCC, stomach grumbling, zig-zagging past the afternoon traffic. Where to eat? We settled on Sakae Sushi….yummeh. Salmon..salmon and more salmon hehe.. Winzy quietly dug into her softcrab rolls and chawanmushi, sampling a few from the selection that I got off the kaiten belt as well. Soon we were done, soo kenyang and we were standing at the cashier’s waiting for the nice Nepali waiter to punch in our orders. Then something caught my eye.  A cute guy eating with his friends at a table near us. “Winzy, check out the guy behind us..hehe” I thought he was oblivious to me stealing glimpses of him from behind Winzy…then as we we leaving, I stopped near the entrance and turned to have a last look, when suddenly he was looking right at me. Yikes!! Maluuu..cepat jalan hehehehe

So we had fun…Thanks Winzy!!! Arighatho gozaimass
