Places I've been to this week (and last week)

Recently it's been getting harder to post up stuff. Not alot of stuff has been happening. The others haven't planned a meet in a while and Kat is still bogged down with work. That pretty much leaves with pics of (surprise, surprise) work.

Well, since most of these pics won't make it out on print, I thought I might as well put them. So here's a start to the "Places I've been to this week" series. Enjoy.
Last week, Panasonic Lumix Launch at Carcosa Seri Negara

This is Carcosa Seri Negara. A hotel in a secluded spot near the Lake Gardens in the middle of KL. It's quite a swanky place given the fact that some historic figures have lived here since the British Colonial days. Queen E even stayed here when she visited our country.

The interior is really classy and gives an air of chivalry and class. It really gives you the impression that you've stepped into an English governour's mansion to have a cup of tea (which we did, the media I mean. scones and everything)

Looking out, the exterior of the building looks nice and cool. The perfect place to laze through Sunday afternoons .

Sony VAIO launch in KL

A guy performing at the start of the VAIO launch.

The full range of models each holding a Sony VAIO that sorta matches their personality and style of dressing. The guy on the far right was the probably the most out standing, surfing around the stage with a psuedo skateboard and performing jumps off the stage.

Sony Malaysia's bossman, Naoi Sudo flanked by models. I don't see Ronson anywhere though, guess he will be making his appearance one day on stage (either as an executive or a model).

Promethean Activboard Launch, Alice Smith School

This is Alice Smith Primary School. Looks more classy than any govt. school. This is the first school I've seen where all the classrooms are air conditioned and the guards carry those long mirrors to check the underside of cars. A very tightly guarded place with lots of rich foreign kids.

Can't remember the name of anyone in the pic. But that is the Activboard, a stylised whiteboard that you can write on and interact with. Certainly makes boring classes more exciting. The kids at Alice Smith don't mind spending extra time in class to have a go at the board.
