They turn into major egomaniacs once on the road.
Just how hard can it be to admit that you're lost instead of insisting that the destination is just "around the corner" , only to be defeated hands down when you turn that corner and voila~
Its not there.
Hello Ez , yep , this post is dedicated to you :p
I seriously think that Sengkang is a very fucked up place to drive around , as it is with all of the new estates like Punggol because instead of having street names like "Ah Kow Road St 22" , you get funky organic names like "Fernvale drive" and "Fernvale walk".
Whats the difference , you ask.
Well let me tell you.
Lets say if you're supposed to go to "ABC road Ave 10", and you're at "ABC road Ave 5", you're able to gauge the distance you're supposed to travel , say , 5 more roads and you're there.
But you can't do nuts about if you're supposed to go to "ABC drive" when you're at "ABC walk" because you simply have no idea where the fuck is "ABC drive" even though the two places share a common name .
Get what i mean ??
Yesterday , Jun and I spent an agonising ( but damn funny ) 20 minutes driving around Sengkang aimlessly trying to locate my maternal grandmother's place and apparently , his so-called "driver's instincts" failed to work and we ended up finding the place after many illegal turns later due to a stroke of good luck.
And then just now Ez and I spent nearly the same amount of time around the same fucking place trying to find the road that leads to Hougang , only to find ourselves in dead ends and deja vu situations.
The funniest part was when we saw the sign on a board "Holy Innocent's High School" and Ez was visibly relieved to see that sign because
"Wah , eh , my secondary school leh. Surely can one , cus' that school in Hougang , lets go."
As he prepared to make a U-turn , he saw a building next to the road and chortled
"Skarli that building is Holy Innocents' siaaa !!"
To which i replied
"siao ah , Holy is at Hougang central lah dey.."
He stopped laughing after that because it was REALLY HOLY INNOCENTS' HIGH.
Mouth gaping wide , he exclaimed :
'What the fuck ??? when did they move to Sengkang ?? me and my foul mouth !"
LOL.
Sibei suay lor !!
In the end he gave up and we wound up taking the longer route to Geylang via PIE .
Morale of today's entry is :
Never assume that what was there almost 10 years ago is still there.
Especially in fucking Sengkang.
