Thoughts In KL

Hey readers. I'm writing this to you in my dad's office in KL. Don't ask why I'm here, 'cause that's not the point. The point is, I'm now having a vacation here in Kl. Well, technically, it's NOT a vacation, 'cos I still've work that needs to be settled with. Yeah, sucks doesn't it?

I must say that it's been SO long since I last visited KL, and there's been many many noticeable changes. The sights, the sounds, the changes, the cars, the people, the life lived - golly gosh, it feels so strange and different, yet so familiar.

Kuala Lumpur is a growing city. With over 1.8 million or more inhabitants crammed (pardon the expression) in 24,365 square kilometres, it's considerably big for a city in the nation. After all, it is the capital city, the heart of Malaysia. Many people have come here to look for a future, even those from abroad (don't get me started on this one; I know what many of you are thinking). The city is filled with people who wander about the city and the neighbouring state of Selangor to work, work, work, work and occasionally rest. The tourists don't seem to worry much about it, obviously, since they have plenty of time to explore and be amazed by the city.

But even with all its marvel, splendour and bustle, KL is still like any ordinary capital in the world. The rush of people to work, the rush of traffic, the filled city streets, the populace busy with their lives - it's all the same. It's all routine, day in, day out. We're all living in a rat race that doesn't seem to have any breaks for us to take a breather. You get left behind... fill in the blanks yourself!

Anyway, do you agree with my post? Send me your comments, thoughts, opinions or shout outs on my CBox or the Comments section of this post. Tell me what YOU think of KL or, for that matter, your own capital. I look forward to hearing from you.

In the meantime, please excuse me as I'm waiting for my dad to take me to KLCC, my first ever visit there. (Honest!) See you soon, and happy hols!!
