Singkapor
Cooti skoloh kali nii we headed down south. Again. Kali nii aku hangkot sekali Datok Ahmad. My daddy seemed so excitedly-eager to be back in Temasek, walaupun kenkadang to really dork ghrok sunggoh. He's 75. He was born and raised there, and I believe by driving him around the island will bring back some old, but still intact, nice sweet childhood memories.
Ehem, one elderly lady in the MRT even commented to me "You're one good son". Twice. ( he he, I know)
*****
Kali nii takdork dahh nak dudok otel-otel. Aku khabor ker bbudok " kita dudok dorm kali nii. dudok kat hostel" Arip sebok tanya aku "Abah2.. berapa star hoistel nii ?" Aku jawab "Suku star". Berkerot jugak muka Arip dengarkan suku star hoistel.
and it's suku star indeed. With shared bathroom and toilets. No bath towels. All 7 of us crammed in one room filled with double decker beds.
But it's clean. Well maintained hostel, and in a quiet neighborhood. and most importantly it's cheap, by $ingkapor standard laa.. It's somewhere near Kovan MRT, near the Punggol Nasi Lemak. Tuu pun aku baca blog mala'un mana entah., recommending the place.
Datok enjoyed it thoroughly, even with the bbudak memekak, kuuuk kiik-kuuuk kiik sokmo dalam bilik. (Me with my incessant jerits. "Hoiii, diam sikit boleh takk?") he heee.
Come meet the Kay Tees. Kopek Tajams.. haaaaaaaaa.

Aku suka betol drive kat Singkapor nih. Road signs are aplenty. Semua orang drive slowly, just like me, Slo Jo.
Trees are well maintained. Landscape tip top. And I think the road is mixed with some kind of magic chemical solution that make Montrosity tires murmured, intead of rumbled. Senyap-Nyaman gitew yaach.
Dan pulak sekarang nii dengan Google Map, hmmm senang betol. Ditambah lagi dengan Pipa yang excited sangat baca sign board with her Robotic English.
"Peee Aye Eeeee, Eks-zit faif-teeeeeeen. Upppaah Serangoooon Rrroad.."
