It’s my offday today and you’ll probably saying …"how nice. can sleep till late morning" but nope. Foolish-me went and sacrifice my long hours of sleep and registered for an IBM, "Lotusphere Comes to You", event in KLCC Convention Centre.

I woke up early so that i can take the early train to KLCC and register the moment the registration counter starts, hoping that they’ll gimme an early bird gift. Now, some of you might be starting to think, "this cheap fella..wake up darn early just to get free gifts". But i assured you i’m not cheap..nope. i Just go there to broaden my knowledge on current new techy, systems….softwares…erm..and…stuffs!! besides, i was not given any early-bird gifts.

It was a whole day event so i short listed to only a few sessions realated to my work field. What i like about such events is that they really provides knowledge on new systems that you not even heard of. And of cause they’re generous in giving you freebies for that many cards u throw in in exchange of one business card.

Another thing i like about events like this is, "Don’t worry, lunch are provided….tea break as well….so is afternoon teabreak and of cos buffet style".  So the whole day is like - session, session, BREAK, session, LUNCH LUNCH LUNCH, session, session, BREAK, session, session.

To let the pictures do the talking, here comes lunch…
For starters…

hmmmm…nice…

And one of the main dish…

I like this. This picture here is infact my 2nd round. It’s call the "Spicy Seafood Ragout". It has shrimps, fish, and clams….hmmm i like clams..

i didn’t take shots of all the dishes mainly because i’m too busy fighting for food with some other 200 over attendees.

o yea..not to forget. the tea breaks…

All 3, "Coffee Streusel tart, Samosa with Mint Yoghurt Dip, Barbecus Chicken Pao" are indeed yummy.

I’m suprise that food served for events are nice. usually they don’t. KLCC Convention Centre’s cheff –> GOOD!!

..all those food..hmmmm

…so anyway, back to the event. It last till 5:30pm. Most of the attendees stayed till the end waiting anxiously for the key highlight of the whole day there..the lucky draw. ooo…the gifts are very nice, but since i didn’t win any so i guess there’s no point mentioning, haha. besides, i came home not empty handed. i got one bag of filled with freebies and one belly filled with freefood. hoit! i’m not cheap! those event organisers made me do it.
