Here I come.....

Salammmm...

It's been quite sometime since I wrote the last post...hehehehe...I'm too tired nowadays..isk..isk..isk..Semalam tghari gi pasar ngan wife...x jauh dari umah. Just to buy some groceries...that's all..and couples of international phone card to make sure we can keep in touch with families and friends in Malaysia...$10 dollar satu and you'll have 1000 mins talking time!

So, nak jadi cite, lepas dah abih beli barang, masuk la balik dalam keta. Time nak start je, keta x nak hidup plak dah! Aaahhh!! Sudah....so, I open up the front bonet and try to find out what's the problem is...well, I was a vehicle mechanic before, remember? hehehehe...I guest the battery caused the prob, so I ring up one of the staff from Malaysian High Comm (Cpl Din-RISIK) to seek an assistance. Selepas meleburkan duit beli bateri baru ($145 dollar beb!...aaarrgghh!), then cuba le start enjin...tapi hampeh...x idup2 gak...dan ini menandakan starter motor keta aku kena ganti baru leeee....aduuussss....what a bad day! Bukan ape, kesian kat wife yg tgh sarat mengandung dok tunggu..nasib baik keta aku buat hal kat parking lot market ni. Kalu kat tepi jalan ke...naya. So, I got no other choice than to call in the tow truck. Tow gi workshop (not far from the market) saja dah $66 dollar...pheh! So tgahari tu, aku ngan lengkap beruniform nye beserta wife aku dengan segan silu naik tow truck ikut gi bengkel! Orang ramai lak time tu...cheh! Jatuh saham aku!

Nasib baik Cpl Din tu introduce aku kat satu workshop tu..namanya M.T Workshop..Owner of the workshop named Mr Tariq, muslim bro, muda lagi...mak dia Indon kahwin ngan Arab...Time tu mak dia pon ada skali, so rancak la sembang2 ngan wife aku...leh lak si Huda ni speaking Indon...hehehe. Susah gak nak dapatkan starter motor (spare part) utk keta aku coz ianya limited edition...dan dah agak veteran...tu la risikonya kalu guna used car. Nasib baik Mr Tariq tu baik hati sanggup gi call kawan2 dia mintak tolong...and lastly, Alhamdulillah, dapat. Dia bagitau aku, kalu starter motor baru, it will cost me $450, 2nd hand $250...waduhhhh...mahal bangat tu! Pastu, kalu guna starter motor baru, keta aku leh siap ptg ni gak. Kalu guna yang 2nd hand, esok baru leh siap coz nak tunggu spare part sampai dari Sydney. Memandangkan aku ada Mess Dining In Night malam tu, so I decided to get the new one. Lagi pun, nanti aku nak gi Sydney lagi nak jempat mak ngan mentua aku datang dalam 2 minggu lagi. I don't want to take anymore risk!

The repairs took about 1 hr to be completed. Mr Tariq just charge me $429...after discount..hehehehe...Ok le tu...kira sesama muslim punya harga la...(mahal gak tu kalu convert dalam RM!) hehehehehe.... Thanks a lot to him for his best effort! Anyway, aku pastu x cakap banyak dah (ye la...duit dah melayang banyak..$429 + $145 + $66!), capai kunci terus start keta balik umah coz nak prepare pakaian Mess Dress utk dinner malam tu. Kerja kat office pon kena gi amik bawak balik umah coz dah tertangguh. Mess Night abis dalam kul 11 malam, then balik umah terus sambung abiskan marking paper bebudak kadet tu sampai kul 4.30 pagi! Pheehhhhh....tu yang hari ni lepas balik keja terus aku 'tertewas di atas sofabed'! Heheheheh.....Ok, nak pi sambung tdoq balik...Salam sumeeee!!!!
