Eversince SPM is over I’ve been a very good road surveyor, and I’ve come to notice these few things that I thought were extinct already by now, but actually they still exist. Here’s a small recap.
1) Hair stylists that can’t speak English
- I was at APT getting my hair cut and restyled in the name of feng shui (yes, feng shui for my hair, got a problem with that?) and there’s this young lady styling my hair. She makes a mistake in the fringe and I ask her to correct it but all she ever says is the word ‘yes’ in a curious tone, as if I asked her if I looked handsome or not. I get that all the time.
2) Roti canai susu
- It was the breakfast of champions and naval officers 40-50 years ago, but last week I realized that I’m not the only one who still fancies roti canai with condensed milk over it. Infact, I was at Devi’s Corner and surprisingly almost everyone was eating it!
3) Another Don Vito in Malaysia
- Haha! actually I just saw this today, there was this huge indian guy sticking out of the sunroof of an Estima, and they were at the traffic light junction and some car infront’s engine had died. But this guy was out the sunroof way before that, and he was yelling in every language he knew telling the guy to get out of the way, a very funny sight if you can encounter it. WPJ 8 Toyota Estima Black, I salute you (and your thick face).
4) The word ’stifler’
- It’s sort of like a trend to add a stifler to the back of your MySpace name, don’t know why. I assume it’s a tribute to Steve Stifler of American Pie. Yeah that was a long time ago, I can only imagine why they like to associate themselves to a guy like Steve Stifler.
5) People walking around with cash in their hand
- And we’re not talking about the change from yesterday’s lunch, about to leave Maybank I spot several people walking towards the bank holding huge bundles of cash in their bare hands. Either that’s the company’s money or they just forgot how safe the environment is in the 5 kilometer radius of a bank HQ.

I sense a bit of vainness and I think you were kinda bragging (indirectly) in that sentence
but hey, you were born with good looks, so it doesn’t hurt to be a bit conceited, right?
