"No entry? What's a sign like this doing here in school and it's at the entrance of the sport complex in school." I thought to myself.
"Dae....no entry lah....never study English ah? No see the sign? Cannot going in lah, dae?" Rubber Ban turned and talked to Leo and me, trying to sound like a Indian security guard.
"Hahaha....Dae, I dun understand English lah....anyway do you think we care?"
It turn out to be that there's a freshmen orientation going in the multi-purpose hall in the sport complex. Anyway no one stop us as we make our way in towards the running track.
I had a good run today. I used to hate jogging and I STILL hate it now but I saw the benefits of it, that's why I have been forcing myself to jog almost everyday..well started 2 days ago. Hahaha.
While stretching before the run, three of us were chatting about how things were when we were still freshmen in the school. Hahaha...I really miss all the fun during my poly years. Especially my first year in poly. Almost all of us had a nickname back then, and we had fun doing all kinds of shits in school. But now, we are the have-beens.....
Ban's nick was Ah Beng. How he got this Ah beng nick was...well...I think his nick tells all...he look like an Ah Beng....with his tight jeans when we first saw him in class. He once pushed Vijay the goat into the wall when all he wanted to do was just to tap his shoulder and say hi.
Leo's nick was magnet because he always attract indian girls. So when he's around and there's indian girls...we would all go, "Leo, your magnet lah." or "What's up with your magnet, man..."
Kok's nick was Cockie because sometimes he just like to crap a lot...his classic was he keep believing and saying that there's only 80 tanks in Malaysia Army. What crap man!!
Meng's nick was Bobby as in Bobby, a name for dogs. How his nick came about was a real classic. Once a lecturer was passing around the attendance list asking us to write down our Christian name if we do have any and Meng turn to me, "Ryan, I don't have any ang moh name leh."
"Don't worry. Don't have don't have lor." I told him.
When the attendance list was passed to me, I decided to play joke on him. I wrote Bobby beside his name. And it must be fate man!!! The very first name that the lecturer called was.....
"Bobby?? Please answer the question on the transparency."
The whole LT went quiet waiting for "Bobby" to stand up and answer the question. The rest of us who knew who this "Bobby" was, started laughing to ourselves and the lecturer keep calling out, "Bobby? Bobby?"
And we decided to bring this joke to a much higher and embarrass level...someone, I think it was Jeremy, started saying out loud, "Wah liao...who's the one who had such a doggy name? Bobby's for dog leh." We started laughing out loud.
In the end, the lecturer was running out of patience and said, "Bobby TXX AXX Meng, please answer the question." Meng was like shocked and stunned, all of us started laughing out really loud.
"Sia lah, Meng!! Bobby is you ah? Dog sia!!" Jeremy said out loud and all of us rolled into fits of laughter.
I was Babyface, well....because I have a boyish look.
There's still lots more, Jeremy was chipmunk, Kangkai was bee, Vijay was goat...a lot alot more..those were the days man....and I really miss it.
