1972 4月16-30 (沙沙的烂英文日记)


16 Apr 72 (Sun)

姨丈 bought a lot of 卤味and bread as our breakfast, Tua Yee offer me a drumstick.

Start our visit to the world’s biggest bird part, Cloud, and I sit in the Mini Minor, the rest followed 姨丈.  In Jurong Bird Park we sat the buggy which went round the park, with a guide to explain everything to us, Island and I went into the 天罗地网to have some snaps, all sorts of birds can be seen in this park, I bought some postcards.

Went back to have our lunch, Island suggested to go to the Changi Beach, Cloud cut her leg in bird park, so she went home with Mr. & Mrs. 柯。

Island drove us to the Payalevan International Airport, I think Subang Airport is better than this.

In Changi Beach, we just get down off the car to have some sea breeze because I didn’t bring my swimming costume.  In People’s Emporium, bought some Chinese food and letter pads.  Island wanted me to spend them to the Merlin Coffee House, before I agree, he just drove straight into it, Lord! My bag got only two something only.  I told to pay the bill, ’s pocket also ‘kosong’, at last Island slowly pulled out his purse and paid the bill, he stole the tea spoon for me, I stole the round paper in the table for souvenir.

It was almost five when we got home, we bath and dress up hurriedly, because at six o’clock we were going to the Jurong Drive.  In cinema, the ticket is 2 dollars per person, we parked our car on a nice place, then went to the ‘Serve Yourself Canteen’, it’s quite interesting to get your own food, once you get in, the first thing to do is to get a paper’s box, what are the food you like to eat, just took it and put in the box, beside Western food, there are also Chinese food like fried Meehoon, chicken porridge and so on…all are placed in a paper cup with a cap on it, they’re all hot one.  I choose a bag of sandwiches, hotdog and a can of Coke, queue up to pay for it, also with all sorts of sauces on it, also with plastic spoon, chopsticks and straws, once you used it, just throw it away or keep for souvenir, it’s really fun.

The name of the picture is ‘Bad Man’s River, I slept in the car, very dull pic.  Roamed around then get home.

 

17 Apr 72 (Mon)

This is my last day in S’pore, everyone seems very sad and 无心机,I myself also like that.

Look around in Spore’s Chinese book store, bought a book for FF and Ah Mah, two for myself.  Walked along the High St. shopping street in S’pore, in Metro, bought a sexy boots for 宜宜, she told me to buy for her, simply look in the Eastern Emporium, don’t have much money to shop anything anymore. 

‘Golden Mile’ an unopened shopping centre is quite nice.  Went to the Jurong Hill Top Restaurant with only a few shillings in our pocket, we could see the sea and the factory up on the building, it started to rain, so far away the sea is a bit blur, it’s very nice at this moment.  On the way back, we saw a car accident, very serious one, the car knocked on the lamp pole and made it crooked, a mango tree also being knocked down by them, three men lying on the road side all blooded, I think they had died, Cloud is scared, she drives slowly now, we have a look in the Queen’s Town Japanese Garden, saw many cute things, but don’t have money to buy.

At night, Cloud said it was my last night in S’pore, must go out, but I’m very tired, but after all, tomorrow got to leave, so we went to People’s Complex again, Cloud said first night we came here, last night also must come here, didn’t buy anything, just eat a soft ice cream, simply walked around in 牛车水.

Tua Yee told Cloud to cut a piece of cake for me, that day left over, she also made a cup of Holick for me. 

Tua Yee helped me to pack, and give me 20$.

 

18 Apr 72 (Tue)

Breakfast is egg and luncheon meat, everybody keep quiet, because it was the day to depart.  Early this morning, about six, Tua Yee called everybody to get up.  I’m felling sleepy, because last night, everyone has sound asleep, except Cloud, still reading a story book until 2.00am so the light keep me awake.

Reach the Railway Station, Shir has came, Tua Yee brought the tickets for us, but we’ll send back the money to her, checked our luggage, didn’t tax a cent, at 8.00 sharp, the train moved, I wave to them, we’re so 依依不舍, I have the last look at the three of them, Tua Yee saw me looking at her, she keeps her head down, at last, we left S’pore far behind.

In the train, we ate a dozen of sandwiches, and Sunkist.  Shir gave me a belated birthday present, it’s a bottle of ‘Brug’, men’s perfume.

Sleep till the train reached KL at 3.00, change to another train to Ipoh, this train don’t have 2nd class, very lousy one, we nearly died in it.  At last, reach Ipoh, almost 8.00pm.  Mum, Rock & Fat were waiting at the station, helped us to carry the luggage.

Get home, took out the presents and gave to them.

Have a cold bath, made me freeze, Mum spend me to Diamond Restaurant to have my supper.

Very, very, very tired indeed, went to bed at 11.00pm.

Tomorrow got to go to work.

 

19 Apr 72 (Wed)

So hard to get up, my bones seem all broken up into pieces, swallow a Yeast-Vite.  No samples today but have to clean up all the places.  After we finished all the work, we took a rest, but the bloody Kam scold us saying that, who told you to come just sitting there, go and clean the table.  Shir and I are so angry with him, hope that he’ll knock down by the lorry afterwards he went out.

Reached home, went to bed immediately, Mum and Rock went to the show.

 

20 Apr 72 (Thur)

Took one day leave, because I haven’t recovered yet.

Shir said got a few samples only.

 

21 Apr 72 (Fri)

Dressed up and get ready to go to work, feeling stomachache, after coming out from the lavatory, felt so uncomfortable, so Mum told me to stay one more day at home and have some rest.

Went to see Doctor Liew C S in the evening.

Shir came to see me after work, she told me not to go tomorrow, because there’re only few samples to test, I better rest one more day.

 

22 Apr 72 (Sat)

Feeling much better today.

Shir said tomorrow we’ve to go to work, as overtime.  We laugh at her said that Ah Kam wanted to see her, even on Sunday he still wanted her to do overtime.

 

23 Apr 72 (Sun)

We didn’t bring along our tiffin container, we decided to eat outside.  Only do the Dirt Test, so it took very little time to finish.

Lunch time, Ah Kam told us to go along with them, cashier drives the car, Boon Ching also came along, that stupid Kam told the cashier to stop at ‘汉元’, so many nice things in this world he doesn’t know to eat, took us to eat this lousy 潮州粥.

After the lunch, they send us back.

 

24 Apr 72 (Mon)

Took the letter scrabble to the Lab to play whenever we’re free, but that dammit Kam told us not to play.

Write a letter to Tua Yee, thanking her everything while I was in S’pore.

 

25 Apr 72 (Tue)

If we knew earlier that there are such a few samples to do, we didn’t want to rush back at such a hurry.

Feeling life is rather boring, I think is because I played too much, went out alone, look around in the book store, bought some 零食to eat at home, while reading the story book.

 

26 Apr 72 (Wed)

Went to the show ‘Sun Flower’ starring is Sophia Loren, very touching film.  After the show, it was raining, Mum hasn’t been to the Eastern Coffee House before, so we took her there, Wow! So cold inside because of the air-cont. everybody is shivering, we drank a cup of hot coffee, Mum pays the bill, 2.00, she blames us to take her there, because it’s rather expensive.  Went to ‘Malaysia’ to have our supper.

 

27 Apr 72 (Thur)

To the picture ‘The Grasshopper’, actually it was not really an adult firm, it was about a girl’s life between the age of 19 to 22, the story was quite meaningful.  In only four years time, the girl has tasted all the bitterness of this world she lives in, I like this film.

 

28 Apr 72 (Fri)

Rock likes to date Linda out, but he is so scared, so Mum and I walked to Dr. Liew’s clinic to call her out, but she’s shy and dare not answer us, so we gave up.  Went to Canning and have some ‘makan’.

 

29 Apr 72 (Sat)

Bought 3 keychain, with Horoscope on it, there’re for Yang, Tua Yee and Cloud.

 

30 Apr 72 (Sun)

Boy, Cotton and Fish gave me a belated present, it was a can of candies, so I treated them all with ice kachang, used $1.70.
