A few months ago, i attended a 3-day world conference in KL...
There were close to 2,000 participants altogether... For 3 days, the convention centre was like a little globe, holding about 2,000 people from everywhere - from local country to countries way way up the North and way way down the Southern Hemisphere. It was like a plate of fried rice in the food world.....
When I registered myself for the conference on Sunday and also attended a half day seminar (yup, instead of going for shopping spree, I actually dedicated my personal time to seminar. Such good employee is hard to find muahahaha...), I was given a survival backpack which contained a pen, a writing pad, some read ups and also a map.... Not a map of KL city but a map of the Convention Centre.... How come they didn't enclose a compass too and some emergency food in case i get lost? Aiya, I should've put that as suggestions for improvement! :P
I've never been sOOOoo serious when attending seminars... I did my homework every night... I looked thru the next day's topics, decided which I wanted to attend, and then checked to the map to see where the venues were.... hardworking or not? Even when I go for free and easy trips, I don't look at maps! haha... Well, if they had enclosed some emergency food in the backpack, i wouldn't mind getting lost! ^^
Checking out where to visit!
Here is some tips for those who are going to attend world conferences.. Remember to wear a pair of comfortable shoes coz u'll have to walk from venues to venues.. it's like in the Uni... u have to change locations for different classes.... Also, make sure *very important* you bring a big bag (as empty as you can) coz you will need it to keep all the free gifts you collect at the exhibition...
These are just some of the free gifts i got
The only downside is, you have to queue up for almost everything... So don't forget to bring your patience with u ...
Gala dinner to end the conference
My favourite moment being sipping free cappuccino during tea breaks... We all need a little something to keep as awake ^^
