Inverted Pyramid Society

Having 8 weekends left in London has left me with a list of things to do in London. Indeed, everyday is different and I realise that there are things that can only happen here and not in KL. Everyday there’s always something new to surprise you but that element of surprise has turned into a norm in London. A beautiful day in Hampton Court Palace and the gardens was money well spent. We managed to find our way our of the WORLD FAMOUS MAZE Twice!! (Because we didn’t realise we found the exit).

After making our way back to Central, we had dinner at Cecconi’s @ Burlington Gardens.

The food is good – nothing special. But the atmosphere was relaxing. My friend asked if I will miss dining in London. I said ‘No’ – it’s just a different experience and type of food that I will get in KL. Making our way to Leicester Sq, I was ’surprised’ to see 2 portable metal detactors where police were checking the people around there. I wonder who gets chosen to pass under them?

In vain of our search for entertainment – we decided to have coffee at Konditor & Cook

Topic of conversation was pretty much about – the work experience in LondonĀ  showed us how ‘class-driven’ the society is – a pyramid society. The politicians are trying to create an ‘inverted pyramid society’ – by seemingly trying to make everyone rich. How? By suppressing the middle class and giving it to the poor while leaving the rich untouched. Or are they? However, we want a Utopian society i.e. having a flat structure society where everyone is equal – sounds like a perfect communist state. But do we? Whatever it is, I am happy with my lifestyle – it works and the little dramas of my life keep me amused.

On a lighter note, the gingerbread cookies are the small little things that I won’t see in KL.
