LU GILALAH PEK!!!

Sometimes I feel sooo blessed for having a colourful life. For instance, yesterday, i was on my way home from Bugis, i saw this ah pek pushing his JB plate motorbike on the road shoulder. I decided to pull over and ask what's wrong. I thought it ran out of gas but apparently, the electric starter died on him.

Ja: Alor Bang, apasal sama lu nya motor? Takda minyak ah?
Translation: Alor Brudder, what's wrong wif your bike? No fuel ah?

Ah Pek: Takla, gua nya motor takleh start. Bukan takda minyak.
Translation: Nolah, my motor can't start. Not because there's no fuel.

Ja: Mana mau pergi
Translation: Where you wanna go?

AP: Johor.

Ja: Abeh, lu mahu tolak lu nya motor sampai johor ah?
Translation: Then, you want to push your bike until johor ah?

AP: ah ah.

Ja: LU GILA LAH PEK! Gua tolak lu nya motor sampai upper thomson, lepas tu gua tumpang lu sampai johor.
Translation: You're crazylah pek! I'll push your bike till upper thomson, then i'll give you a lift till johor.

AP: Tak boleh tak boleh. Gua mahu tolak jugak sampai johor.
Translation: Cannot cannot. I still want to push till johor.

Pause, lemme describe how far this upper thomson is from johor. It's like from SMU till Ang Mo Kio. LU GILALAH PEK!!!

Unpause

Ja: LU GILALAH!! Takpalah, gua tolak lu nya motor sampai Johor.
Translation: You're crazylah, nevermind, i'll push your bike till Johor.

AP: Thank you thank you.

And so i did. i told him to open his right pillion foot rest and i pushed his bike, with my left foot while trying to balance my bike. Amazingly, it worked. Somebody did this on me before. So if that guy can do it, I also can do it.

As we moved along upper thomson passed by Mandai, passed by Woodlands, our blinking right signal kept us at bay from other motorist, who were oblivious to what was actually going on. We even managed to change lanes on the highway. Can you believe that?! Amazing... LU GILALAH PEK!

he asked whether i was singaporean while i was pushing. i said "yes". and he gave me the thumbs up. So i hope i did Singapore proud wif this. LOL. This is for you SINGAPORE! I'm helping to strengthen our political ties and to show the malaysians that not all Singaporeans are damn fucked up on the road and senseless and heartless.

This entry is dedicated for you lah Ah Pek. Even though i dunno your name, i'll remember you lah for you're the one that made me go, "LU GILALAH PEK!" in the middle of the highway.

Goodnight guys. For those who came down to Indochine, thanks. For those who might wanna come down to Carnival at Chijmes, its on Tuesday evening. Shall inform you guys further soon. Till then, enjoy life.

ja
feeling happy!!!
