geylang - part 2

May Peace Be Upon You,

**Geylang, sipaku geylang,
Geylang, si rama-rama.

Pulang, marilah pulang, marilah pulang bersama-sama.
Pulang, marilah pulang, marilah pulang bersama-sama. **

Yeap, was at Geylang, again, for the second time, with the girls, this time round.
We went on a go-see, to find Ulfah a nice, sweet, plain, white baju kurung.
Settling for the plain telekung, Ulfah?
No? Hehehehe.

What is on sale at the bazaar is basically the same,ol' things.
They had selendangs, baju kurung, kebaya modern, shoes, bags, brooches, songkoks, kueh raya, stick-stick, my all time-favourite deng-deng (or also pronounced as 'dang-dang' by kak yus), kebab, keropok lekor, Turkish ice-cream, and the list goes on and on, from Yew Tee to Chua Chu Kang. Hehe.

And my girls brought my attention to that pair of dolly-dearest. Aiyoh! Freaked me out big time. It looks scary lah!
Dolls are supposed to look cute and cuddly, but not this pair, which hovers over your head, like some demon-child.
Imagine Chuckie and his bride. Eeeeeeeeeeeee!

And when you're down at Geylang, anytime soon, do me a favour. Look up at those dangling light-display and tell me, what are actually those things which looks like the Indian's milk-pot.
Lampu colok? Baldi air? Lantern?
Apa seh????

Nak pergi Geylang lagi lah.
I want to get those shoes. The pink one by the roadside, the denim one at Tanjong Katong, the white beaded 'Aladdin' shoes from the bazaar, the black sequined one and the beige with the brass-buckle one from Joo Chiat.
And I want to buy that 'Sakratul-Maut' CD too! Looks scary but... it should be educational.
Hmmmm...

Haiz.... banyaknya benda yang mahu dibeli.... nafsu, nafsu.

Perlukah aku bercinta ?
Andai hidup berteman air mata.
Biarkan saja aku bersendiri.
Usah kau memandang wajahku lagi.
~~~jiwang sey....
