To Publika from Subang Jaya

I can say that I haven't been to Publika for 2 years, the last I went there with Coreen. She fetch me from SS2 PJ.

I haven't been there since, I didn't know how to go there. I check waze and thought it is easy but yesterday while my dear is driving I can tell you that waze is not saying anything at all. I still have to refer to my phone to check the map to go Publika. 

We have to follow the route Mont Kiara to go Publika, the parking in Publika is expensive. Dear parking at the premiere parking and it cost RM5 for first two hours. We parked only 3 hours plus and it cost us RM9. Yeah never parked at the premiere parking there! 

Anyway this coming October I still need go Publika and it's a weekday, you can imagine the jam.

We'll be taking speed boat to Phi Phi Island. My first time to go vacation, I am hoping to bring back lots of good memories.

Total Stranger in Mall

Today after the event then it was night so I hanging out at the Sam Deli to have my coffee, then came a stranger with backpack and hand with a bag too. He told me that he needs money to go back Johor Bharu. That's strange, if he's in trouble he should proceed to shopping mall security or the information counter, why come forward to me. I didn't bother him as it's very strange so many people in the area and he chooses to talk with me.

Well, there's alot scam in the mall so better avoid such people. If he's really in trouble, I am sure he'll find a way. There is more than one Chinese people in the mall.

I'm not able to help him too, I have just enough money for back to my home. I need to pay parking fee for the event I attended.

Its a travel week for me

It's going to be a travel week for me, yeah got some invitation that I'm going to go.
