I've been reading a lot of the old Phases magazine recently. Maybe it's just something that I have to do to get myself off the computer every now and then. Sloppy guy have I become. Need things to do to get off the computer I must. Sorry, that was the Star Wars hype getting into me. I've lost my brain to those darn heard-crabs in half-life 2. Only Gordon Freeman can save me but he's too busy defeating the Combine and making out with those zomebies (eewwwww..) and thus I can't really write anything funny or nice a few days ago. But something interesting did happen to my bro and me today - we got lost.
After playing a game of snooker at The Malacca Club (it's free after all) we were heading back home but this time, we strangely decided to take a different route back instead. We usually travel that route during the night. After working out at the club with my family, dad would take the route back. Bro was driving his car that was nearly, undoubtedly, seriously empty. So we were heading down the road until we reached a t-junction with another road going towards the right side. I told my bro, "We're supposed to turn here right?". He looked blank faced. When he was turning in the junction he suddenly turn back to the left. "No larr~ I think it's straight". I doubted but still, I wanted to see where the road would lead to.
We carried on - blindly. It was a straight road all the way with no turnings at all. There were small roads going into unknown jungle settlements though. Soon, the road became smaller, from a a two-way road with tar, it became one way, and smaller, and smaller, until the point we were driving on dirt road. We could've easily turn back but the thought of it didn't cross our minds. We venture on deeper into the strange kampung. "I don't remember seeing this" I said and both of us burst into laughter. From that point on we started cracking a bunch of jokes about our surroundings and laughed and laughed so much so the fact that we were lost didn't bother us.
After journeying deeper into this kampung that could be inhabited by a bunch of serial-killers or rapist-chicks *bro smiles*, we came across a few roads that split into two and then I started quoting the first lines from Form 4's (i think) 'The Road Not Taken', "Two road diverge into.. ". We burst out laughing again. When the radio was playing a nice rock tune, we would purposely do head-bangs and watch the kampung people's reaction. At last, we reached a dead end. We looked at each other with seriousness in our eyes.. and burst out laughing again. I can't tell if it's content of the air that's filled with laughing gas produced by the kampung people's farts or that we were just in a good mood. My bro quirked, "Okay, okay, enough of laughing. If we reach another dead end we won't have enough fuel to reach home". I paused for a moment and told him the Mc Donald advertisement about the a few guys in a car when it suddenly went out of gas, instead of pushing it to the nearest gas station, they pushed it to a Mc Donald outlet and grabbed a burger. We burst out laughing again.
To make him feel better (not that he was feeling down) I gave him a tip, if a maze has one entrance and one exit, put your hand on the right wall and keep walking - you'll reach the exit eventually. But in our case, our fuel wasn't sufficient to do that but thanks to our precise, undeniable sense of direction, we got out and head back home.
Burst into laughter.
