I spent one night time to design the kifu form, use the microsoft excel to design it. It come out as good as I like it. I simplified some of the detail, so it won't look so complicated to others. I will use it in the shogi event I directed on 3 April.

Now bringing the disappointed mood to the taiwan food restaurant and there is no wireless here. The luck is very bad so far, after the meal, we shall go to the Mid Valley for the shogi and weiqi class.

When we having a ride on monorail after the lunch, we are going to the wrong way for about 2 stations, we going back to the KL Sentral station. Then we go to take the KTM trains, unfortunately the KTM delay for about 10 minutes. And finally we reach the Japan Club KL.

When we reach the Japan Club, in the shogi room, there are only 4 peoples playing the go, then we stand there and watch them playing. After a few moments, 3 more peoples come and 2 of them start to play. After that, ryou and xinwen finally show up. Then xinwen teach bih chien and yaohong weiqi, Ryou and me play shogi.

Ryou teach me alot of techniques that very useful to me. I learn a lot of things. Specially a test on my shogi style and other kind of strategies.
Besides that, my friends learn Igo from the Xinwen senior.

Af ter the activity finish, we go to the japan club restaurant to have our dinner, i call a yakisoba dinner set. The food here are so delicious, since the last time i come to eat, now finally i able to eat it again.

After the dinner, we have a walk around the Japan Club KL. Pay a visit to some shops. Then I buy a mini shogi set that cost RM7. The mini shogi set will keep as my collection.

Then, we back to the pudu raya bus station, but unfortunately all the tickets to melaka had sold out. Then I call Zhi Yi to help us to book a hotel room for us, as so now we got a place to sleep. The hotel is The Chan's Inn. The hotel room cost us RM70 a night.

The curve are so big, and there is even a second building for younger generation with cinema on the highest floor.

945 in the morning, the curve still sleeping before wakeup for its busy day. We all gather at the mcdonald to have some coffee and icecream, and so here i am stoping the diary for a few moments.

When 10am, we go and visit the whole curve building. Then we looking for Daiso the biggest branch in Malaysia. But unfortunately we still can't find any shogi set.
After that, we go into a big IT shop to searching for any cheap computer stuff, i didn't buy anything anyway. Then we go to the IKATO the next building beside curve, saw the biggest pet shop in Malaysia, and also should be the biggest popular bookshop in Malaysia.

Around 12pm, we take a taxi to sunway pyramid. In sunway pyramid, we looking for game centre but unfortunately it bankrupt already.
Then we go ice skating during 3pm, well this is my first time to play ice skating. I make a perfect record, without falling down. But that cost me a next whole day of leg aching.
