Car Ride

since i live so friggin far away, car rides are an essential part of my life.

i take 20 minutes to get into town at any ONE way, and take another 20 minutes back. sometimes when i get home later in the night, it only takes 15 minutes cos there's no car on the road, therefore i can tekan a little harder and reach home a little faster.

one thing i HATE though.

driving into wretched wretched Kuala Lumpur. why? because cars there don't seem to have any drivers but yet they are moving, and somehow, their blinkers don't friggin work! ergh!!!

but anyway,
today i made a trip down to Wisma MCA to go get my Visa done. mother rushed and rushed and RUSHED me to be quick!! ergh. but it's not my fault! i have to bathe and then properly tie my hair and then wear proper clothes cos i'm going into a government building... blah.. blahh.. blah... and she was the one who got us home late. blahh.. blahh... blahhh..

AND THEN!!!
i had to take ANOTHER passport photo, and then get photocopies of bank statements and investment statements done, and then jam our way there...
it was HECTIC.

cars everywhere, so bloody hot, so freaking humid, too many people, incompetent photostat lady... ergh!! everything seemed to slow us down.

*the photo man even touched up my passport photo with photoshop, and it was so nice of him, but if he didn't, we could've saved alot of time.

we rushed and rushed, and hoped to dear God to get a good park space, and when we were there, we wait 10 whole minutes for the elevator to reach at B1. what nonsense.

and by the time the elevator came, it was going down -_- but what the heck! since we're in B1, we might as well have a ride down 2 floors and head up to floor 19 lah right?? faster anyway. so we did exactly that (we- mother, aunty, keshia). and when we reached the 19th floor (after stopping at various other levels on the way up), we turn and see 2 Sri Langkan security guards saying..

"sohray maduhm, we are cloused."








*BLINK BLINK* o_o


OMGLA!!!!!!
we came all the way from SUNGAI BULOH and at exactly 3.10 pm they tell us they are closed?!?!?! it's not even our fault!!!!! the elevator took too long!!!!!!!!!!

so my mother got into one of her modes, and then she started kicking up a fuss. i BIG one. hah. she demanded to see the manager, claiming that the website says clearly that it's closed at 3.30pm, and we were well within the working hours!

"why is it closed now? it is only supposed to close at 3.30 pm! we are still early!"
"no maduhm, we are closed at 3pm. please come back tmrw"
"this is crazy! are you sure?"
"please come back tmrw. we are closed" *points to the sign board*
"can you please ask your manager to talk to me?!?"

but no, the security guard called the head security guard instead, who didn't seem to listen to neither one of our pleas or explanations OR queries, and so my mother DEMANDED again to see someone else who would at least understand english. so the head security lady went to call another indian lady who wore some kinda ugly uniform to come talk to us.

"i'm sorry madam, we are closed. you see the sign here? we are closed already. it is 3.10 pm, we close at 3 pm." *bob head bob head*
"BUT YOUR WEBSITE CLEARLY STATES THAT YOU CLOSE AT 3.30 PM, AND THE BRITISH HIGH COMMISION CLOSES AT 5.30 PM! AND THE LAST TIME I CAME YOU CLOSE AT 4.30PM!! WHAT IS THIS!!"
"i'm sorry madam, but there is no use arguing with me because we close at 3 pm. it is stated in the rules. we don't make the rules, so there is no point arguing with me. come back tmrw at 8 in the morning"
"YES YOU ARE RIGHT I DO NOT WANT TO ARGUE WITH YOU! BRING ME SOMEONE WHO CAN MAKE DECISIONS!!"

so the indian lady goes in to find another indian man to come answer my mother.

"yes how can i help you madam?"
"YOUR WEBSITE... bla bla bla bla bla"
"no, it has always been like this. we close at 3 pm."
"OK FINE WHATEVER."

*stomps off*

wah so drama
bodoh.
my mother is so ganas. that is why she protects me from horny lifeguards.
that's another story all together.

i am not on anyone's side la...
but seriously man,
