A New Page

Well, I have failed in getting my blog posted regularly. A lot has happen around me since January..... getting engaged, celebrating my alma mater's centenary year, and as usual running here and there. Anyway.... hopefully this time I can catch up with the posting as I do have quite a lot of things in mind.

Well, it has been almost aweek since the news came out on paper. One guy got beaten up by supposedly 2 guys in a quite common road bully incident here in Malaysia. Well, I guess the two guys are now peeing in their pants, after they found that they are now killers.

I am actually not suprise with the event, I'm not sure why, but it wasn't something that actually makes me feel shocked..... it is more of a feeling of .... hmmmmmm.

I had one experience with a road bully a few months ago. While I was on my way to work, this New Mitsubishi Storm just when pass me, the problem was he was overtaking me from the passenger side of the road...... well, hit my car, but as I felt I'm too lazy to fight just moved on. He gave me a chased and blocked me by the side of the road.

Three guys came out, complaining that it was my fault and wants me to pay them. Wait a minute here guys, you did something wrong just now.......

They weren't not happy when I said no.

Well, they still insist in me paying them..... okay guys, enough is enough, before I get beaten up (well, seems that everyone wants to beat me up), let's go to the police station. Then they started having second thoughts, they still say pay up for the gazzillion time and giving a reason that I might have to fork out more if I go to the cops. Again they were shocked that I said okay...... at least I know I was wrong.

After a few minutes talking in chinese, they say they will make a report....... and wants me to do the same, but still insisted that I pay up, I guess they don't understand a word I said........ so I said fine.

But... have to go to the office first. At the office one of the guys called me..... no need to go to the cops, no need to pay, no need to worry. well, again what was that just now............

Well, it happen again yesterday. While lining up to pay my junk food at a petrol aka gas station, one girl just cut in front of me...... thank god, I was sick yesterday. I wasn't in the mood to raise my voice......

I can still remember when I told an old lady off at a supermarket for cutting queue..... if it was for one tinsy winsy item its okay, but this was like a mountain in her shopping cart...... and the line behind me was very,very, very long. The conversation when something like this..........

"Excuse me makcik (aunt), there is a line"

"Well, I'm in a hurry...... I need to go now"

"If you are in a hurry, so are we....... can you please follow the queue"

"I'm old you should give me way!!!!"

Well, okay she just raised her voice.....

"Make it this way, if you ask everybody behind me, and they don't mind...... you can cut in. If not, the end of the line is way back over there not infront of me"

Well....... luckily the husband was there, if not.... I think I would have been beaten up by that old lady. And btw, I could see the people behind me smile after what I did...........

Come to think of it maybe I should change my blog title to "The Ugly Malaysians..... my experience"

In a few more days I will be 35. I guess it is just a number like maybe 1, 100, 1905 etc..... come to think about it, I should put something down after almost 35 years on this old mother earth.......

Hopefully this time...... this effort will be longer than the one I did a long, long time ago...... and seems to be lost in the world wide web space......
