as told by jo

i am from johor. i just moved to kuantan a few months back to help awla move about in kuantan.

the journey to kuantan was ok. during my 2nd week i bumped into a car because awla didn't adjust her side mirror well. my backside is still dented until today because she doesn't have the time to go send it to the workshop for repair.

i dont go to the hospital everyday. sometimes awla catches a ride with her roomie or takes a bus to school so i'm left at the mahallat car park. i'm not scared to be left alone because there are so many cars around. i'm just worried when i'm parked by the big road during the day and the bus or garbage truck scratches my nice silver coat. i've enough scratch marks already. one day, awla left me there during the day and a nice security guard passed by and saw me. he immediately put a white piece of paper on my wiper just like the one given by the police traffic at the jhc bus stop. i dunno what it said but it definitely made awla mad and she never left me there again. which is a good thing alhamdulillah.

the RM25 parking fine. grrrrrr...

one day, some guy came and stole my right lower light. i don't remember when or how it happened but awla only noticed it when she drove me to jhc. she guessed it was a theft as there was no signs of trauma around the site and the wire was sticking out. it was embarrassing. i looked like someone with a missing tooth. alhamdulillah, i could still function. my main lights were ok. it was just a cosmetic problem. i had to wait for her to get her scholarship before she could buy me a new light.

last week, the weather was rather hot. awla doesn't usually leave my windows open a bit so i get quite stuffed inside. it was so hot that my rear-view mirror cracked. she didn't come see me for several days so she only realized it on friday. when she did notice it, she was so distraught that she was rather distracted the whole day. i got to know that she nearly lost her handphone that day and also caused two friends to become upset with her for not replying their messages.

alhamdulillah that friday evening, i was brought to the car accessories shop and awla bought a nice, long rear view mirror and a new front light. they only come in pairs (rm120) so now i have one spare left front light just in case someone wants to steal that one too. the nice chinese man installed my new light but it wouldnt function so i was referred to the wiring man. the wire-guy said that the thief cut off my socket too (whatever that means) but somehow he still managed to make the lights work. awla spent rm133 on me that day. i have to be thankful and perform well iA.

see my rongak front and new lights.

this is the nice chinese guy who fixed my light.

this is the wiring guy's son

my new mirror. i can see everything now.

then awla went to East coast mall to celebrate the occasion.

yours truly,
