Cumbersome Process
Wednesday, December 21, 2005
The time came when i was in need of changing my ic to the new MyKad. So today, my cousins and i went decided to make a trip to PJ to change our cards. Early in the morning, we set out for our quest, bringing along my trusty cruthes in case the going gets tough. Upon reaching the government state building in PJ, we were welcome by a young malay chap. To our dismay, he told us that the building was close and gave us a letter with all the other alternative places on it. The options were shah alam, putrajaya and some random place in kuala selangor..so by using the sophisticated, highly intellectual method of reverse pshychology, we went to putrajaya reasoning that people would go to shah alam because it was closer leaving putrajaya a vacant destination. Somehow, the ppl in msia have already mastered this critical thinking skill and we were welcomed by the sight of a jam packed putrajaya office. To add insult to injury, there was this huge flight of stairs that i have to climb...to a orang cacat like me, it seems like the freakin batu caves, so slowy i huff and puff and brought myself up.
Reaching the "summit", we went into the lift, another malay guy with some name tag on was holding the lift for me. As we stepped out of the lift, the malay dude notice my disability to walk coherently. Thankfully, by God's grace, he was one of the supervisor there and ask the worker to take a "special" number for me. So as soon as i got the number, it was my turn. Off i went, bypassing about 30 ppl in the line and getting my ic done along with my 2 other cousins...Morale of the story: Go play basketball and try that never-been-seen before, lebron james, 720 degree spin flip sommersault move and who cares if your legs give way as things will fall into place somehow.
