For the next two months, I am interning at KLue magazine.
I KNOW!! When I got the internship, I was ecstatic. I was beyond ecstatic. I was erm...very very ecstatic? :-Þ
Yesterday was my 1st day. Their office is on Jalan Bukit Bintang and since I don't have a car, my only means of transportation there is the public kind. I guess there are both good things and bad things about public transport.
Yesterday was horrible! I was like this insane noob on the LRT. I didn't know how to push and shove my way through the mass of people, I couldn't arrange myself to reach any poles or seats or whatever-not stuff I could use to stabilize myself. The thing is, if the train is empty, you can stand stable coz there's enough space to spread your legs or whatever. But when the train is packed, there's no leg room, there's no arm room...There's NO room. So yesterday I was falling all over the place. I fell on people, I fell on bags, I stepped on toes and shopping bags...But today was great! I learnt that the only way to get around the KL/PJ working folk is to be selfish. Don't care who's coming on board, make sure you have your space near a pole or those railing strap things...
Anyway, the good thing is, I have to take a 20 minute walk from the Bukit Bintang monorail station to reach the office. At least I'm fulfilling my workout quota coz by the time I'm home from work, I guarantee you I won't find the discipline or the energy to go jogging.
I'm writing this from my desk so, back to work =)
