B4 Deepavali in Brickfields

Was working in Kuala Lumpur's Little India, prior to Deepavali, the Indian festival of lights.


Fleamarket-ish stalls under tents lined the streets in anticipation of the festival. I was heading for the Public Bank near YMCA to invest in unit trust funds that day

The sea of colourful lights brighten up my day!

I felt like getting myself some clothes. But the simplest ones were RM80! The pretty ones with shiny sequins costs about RM300. I later found out that everything was going for really cheap two days before Deepavali =( Missed it cuz i was sent off to Bangi

Below is a violation of anti-food-blog blog rules:

Banana leave rice.
Its a rather expensive vegetarian meal. Gotta post it, i was shocked that quite a few colleagues of mine have never eaten the dish!

Really love the deco, it was an unexpectedly fun stroll to the bank that day =)

That week, i had a flat tyre

My steering was all weird, the car turns left though my steering was straight. Got it fixed

Isya yeah, Winnie was the one who told me that everything was going cheap the Thurs n Fri before Deepavali. I saw her in the office yesterday evening and had a short chat. Jacinta was there too.

Jealous too, but Winnie had to face the bad traffic around office for the whole week!

Jac, it was flat but not empty, still could drive slowly so i went to the tyre shop near my house to get the nail out. RM4 only, my mom reccomends that shop among the whole row of shops
