Geylang Si Paku Geylang

aku ambik cuti setengah hari sebab ngantuk yg dah sampai ke migraine. Last nite i slept late again, helping lovey with his presentation. By 1.30am aku dah close to zombie .. pagi bangun antara hidup dan mati .. akhirnya bila sampai ke rumah ibuk i took penadol and zzz... i called ofis to let boss know that i got headache and will be coming in the afternoon. By 9am, i was wide awake .. been wanting to take halfday leave since last week cos i wanna catch Brokeback Mountain. But ney.... as what Awan said "tengok vcd sudah lunnn.." yeah well i guess i shall stick by ur advice dearie Awan dari play truant eh?

Scrap the idea of watching Brokeback. Am sure Lee Ang did a great job! Tadi pun sempat baca abt the lead actor's experience acting in the movie hmmm ... cekmi, u oso dah watch ye??? kiter sangat jeles lah .. Anyway, i have another mission. Today will be the last day of Pasar Geylang In Action. I want to be part of it .. part of history kaum melayu .. just like pasar joo chiat yang dah lama dirobohkan ... Tak ramai yg tahu pasal pasar Joo Chiat, now its Pasar Geylang's turn to go for a make over. Arus permodenan di Singapura memungkinkan segalanya ..

aku membesar di haig road, lebih kurang 10 minit jalan ke Geylang Serai. Tadi aku dah ibuk seakan menyaksikan berakhirnya kenangan Pasar Geylang. Suasan malenkoli sungguh di sana. Pasar dah kosong .. hanya tinggal sampah sarap. Kedai banyak yang dah tutup. Kedai kueh gandus pergi kemana ye??

Geylang Serai ..


runcit stall


famous cendol stall


ibuk along memory lane


raja lelong..


Tiada lagi kenangan aku berjalan bersama ibuk di petang raya ..
Tiada lagi bau busuk menekan hidung ..
Tiada lagi peluh menitik seluruh badan ..
Aku pasti yg akan lahir tentunya lebih bersih, cantik dan moden ..
Aku akan terus menyaksikan berubahan yang berlaku.

Melayu (singapura) = Geylang Serai kan?

MamaEm, u jgn nak serbu Geylang lagik lah .. bila balik kampung halaman huhu

this one is going down


looking back


aku teringatkan lagu M Nasir .. bas no.13 kalau di zaman 80an Geylang serai berubah wajah .. kali ini ia terus hilang ..

damnnn username ... i gotcha at last!

i just can't seem to remember my username. but after i made the enquiry and try to to get in again, it WORKS!. ayo ..manyak susah lor anyway, a fren there.. just linked me to her blog. it was cool stuff. full of weird words that i think i might need a dicky to check out the real meaning. But that's ok, it makes life more interesting and at least i knoe that my vocab is still near to uno. Gosh! i should learn words it will be good for my young lovey too. Should stop learning languages from tv. Oh well, no wonder i flunk my GP. But that’s ok, at least i found my love partner when i re-sit for the exam. so a fren of mine just got a prada bag and tod's. i noe prada but wat’s a tod's? but its ok, its not as if im gonna get one too. Maybe I should go to petaling street heh … so after almost of 30xx old of living, i guess this is who i am eh? it would be good if i can do a survey and find out how my frens look at me. but adulthood is so different. I just hv to do ...

love-sick

i wonder if jimi kerja today ataupun tercegat kat depan kotak tv menyaksikan Oscar "live" sajer, mengubati demamnya hehe. Aku tak rasa dia buat kerja bodoh punnn... sebab suatu masa dulu, aku pun gitu. Tak pernah miss any of the award ceremony. Skarang jer aku tak de time utk benda2 gini, jadi aku suka tompang sekaki dgn obsesinya. selamat ada jimi , aku baca review dan lepas tu aku cari vcd sajer.. lovey masih blum 100% sihat. He lost 5kg in 5 days .. drastic tak tu? skarang ni dia rasa mabuk dan mual selalu. Last saturday, after dibdib's reading clinic lesson kita gie carik peacock feathers kat little india .. out of nowhere lovey turned pale, white!! cam tak de darah, aku risau. For the past nites lovey been talking in his sleep. Its all abt working. Last nite, i got notti and decided to record it instead. Hehehe .. so funny he said the office looked funny, looked like hospital and then he had a shocked to see me (i appeared in his dream). Actually dia berbual banya...
