hot, HOT weekend...~!

what a weekend....
the temperatures were so crazy, (still is..), at times i dont feel like doin' anything but sit on the rattan chair and morph into freeze-mode...
but other than that, my weekend had been pretty okeii~...


saturday afternoon, after waking up pretti decently at 11:00am... -taking into consideration the hangover from previous night's long island- .. sat at home and waited for calls from alanis and sharon.... after much calls and sms-es, it was made to be that i'd drive to alanis' and zuk would join us later after she's finished running her errands (read: big business..)
so there i was, reaching alanis' home in somewhere Tropicana at almost 3:00pm...
baby Dixon had realli big, beautiful eyes... i tink he got that from alanis.. other than that, i couldnt realli make out whether he looks more like fung or alanis.. afterall, he is still onli less than 2mths old... hehehh~ CUTE!!!
while watching over him on the bed (he cant flip yet tho'), we three did some catchin' up on recent events... her birth at doctor sathuan's... zuk's latest business venture in Laos (uh-huh)... my office's exaggerative joint-leave rules... =} they were after all, all ex-galaxians...
later we stole alanis down for a cuppa... i was getting hungry after all.. stay longer and all the HupSeng square biscuits in her house wouldve been finished by me...


it being a hot, hot afternoon, we had no doubt ordering ice cold fizzy drinks... but wait a minute, we saw her gulping down the purple Justea from the straw non-stop like how a kid would... "can you take cold drinks oredi ka-?"... still sheepishly sucking from the straw, she shook her head. Gawd!! but how can v blame her with such weather rite??............


then all too soon, Sunday came.
was at the PJ Lion's Club annual Blind Leading the Blind Walk this morning... the flag-off was at Dewan Sivik, somewhere Jln Yong Shook Lin ...

hmmm, the poster stucked at our office walls wrote that registration starts at 7:30am... and i too told joyce to get ready by 7:00am.... but hey hey, i "think" the alarm didnt go off (or maybe it did..) and i only managed to leave home at 7:30am sharp... hehehhhe... no biggie tho', after picking joyce and roommie up, we reached around 8++am, and the lions were still in the middle of their speeech.... good~.

making our way around PJ to get to the venue, we came to realize just how unfamiliar we are with PJ... now officially a city by status, 'crowned' only as recent as somewhere 2006...

well, considering joyce has been renting in Seapark for so long now, and i've been working in Section 19 since late 2005 now... it really is kind of a shame, how i failed to realize that the 'new' Three Two Square which is basically just at the end of my office's stretch, houses some reali good watering holes... cuz' so far i've onli been to its Starbucks and Old Town :)
oh, it also sticks-in with a 'The Crest' tower of commercial offices. it's a shame also, how i didnt realize that there is this Quill 9 block of offices in the area... towering in the skyline with its realli cool, cursive blue signage... makes you wonder why it's the recession and yet there's still so many offices to let??

then there is the Jaya One lot of commercial cum lifestyle 'business park'... tsk tsk tsk, the names people give to new investments these days... this 'business park' too, boasts some gud pubs and eateries... or so i heard from my lounging frens... this too, is the place where the KLUE publications office is located :)
further down Jalan Semangat, we passed by Jaya 33 pulak... tends to get confusing to me sometimes, but this is the one where the True Fitness gym is at. other than that, i havent heard of any noteworthy outlet there.. but oh, Vintry @ Bukit Damansara has found new grounds here at Jaya 33... now, i know... but is Vintry Bukit D'sara still there?

then before we knew it, we went from Jln Semangat into Jln Barat.. from there on, we just followed enroute, passing by PJ Hilton on the left and PJ8 service suites on the right... very soon, the Dewan Sivik signboard loomed before us... and we were already looking for parking around the shops there... haha! so much for studying the tiny routes on Google Maps the night before.... =P



~that's Menara Axis in the background... i think..~

a full set of high school 'pancaragam' lead the walk - in full gear and regalia - "not heavy meh?" ~audrey...


well, i thought we'd have a shot at the 29inch... but oh well,... it was all good fun anyways... yeap, all 3km of the walk... =D





another itch scratched...
