小時後, 經常聽到大人們談泰國女孩子所表演的Tiger Show, 心中很自然的想到Tiger Show一定像馬戲團的表演. 腦里還會幻想到那些女孩子在台上怎樣用圈圈讓老虎跳來跳去. 他們好勇敢哦, 不怕老虎…
但是另一方面卻感到很好奇, 為甚麼那些女孩子會把香煙塞到下面去呢? 想來想去, 就是想不通. 老虎和香煙有甚kaitan呢???
When I was young, whenever I hear the adults talking about the “Tiger Show” performed by Thai Girls, my mind would inadvertently thought of the Thai girls performing with the tigers on the stage just like in the circus, putting up the hoops for the tigers to jump through. To me, they were so brave, not afraid of the tigers…
But on the other hand, I was also curious because I also overheard them saying that the girls would put the cigarette on the "part" below… Huh??? What has the cigarette got to do with the tiger show??? Really couldn’t understand what the adults were talking about….

記得當我四,五歲時, 父母親帶我們一家人到海邊玩,那可是我此生的第一次. 在此之前, 我只在浴缸里”游”過水. 當然在浴缸里游水時是赤裸裸的啦!!! 所以, 當爸爸把我丟進海里時, 我即刻大聲哭叫, “哇…!!! 我的底褲濕了!!! 我的底褲濕了!!!”.
結果呢, 就這樣給在場的親戚們笑了整整几年….
甚麼嘛, 人家怕媽媽罵我把底褲弄濕了嘛… 有甚麼好笑呢??? 不准笑!!!! Jangan ketawa….
When I was 4 or 5 years old, my parents took me to the beach. That was my very first time on a beach. Prior to that, I only got to swim in my bathing tub and of course I would “swim” naked in there!!! Therefore, when my dad threw me into the water, the first thing that came to my mind was “My panty is wet!!!! My panty is wet!!!” and so I cried non stop…
That incident had provided laughter to my family members for the next few years…
What??? I was afraid that my mum would scold me for wetting my panty what… What’s wrong with that??? It’s not funny!!! Don’t laugh!!!

以前, 要到鄰國去, 父母親總會帶我們一家人到immigration department 去. 不知道是為甚麼, 只是聽說是去弄 WATER PASS. Hmmm…??? 心里會想, 為甚麼要弄 water pass 呢? 難道去泰國要坐船過海嗎? 雖然我是笨豬一名, 可是我還懂得到新加坡才需要過海, 泰國和大馬的邊沿是相連的, 哪裡有海呢? 這些大人, 咳… 真搞不懂他們… 甚麼 water pass 嘛???
Last time, whenever we traveled to the neighbouring countries, my parents would take us to the immigration department to have our “Water Pass” done up. Hmmm… why do we need water pass huh? I know I’m not that smart, but I knew that to go Singapore, we need to cross the sea, but Thailand and Malaysia shares the same border, so there is no need to take any boat to across any sea… These adults huh, do they know what they are talking about nor not? What and why water pass huh?

七十年代尾端, 是VCR (Video Cassette Recorder) 在大馬首次亮相的時期. 有一天, 婆婆從她朋友家回來, 興致勃勃的告訴我們, “哇!!! 我剛才在某某人的家看 MILO TIN, 真好看哦…” 聽候第一個反應就是…”Huh???, MILO TIN, 我們家裡也有嘛，幹嘛要別人的家去看呢？ 有甚麼好看的???”
The end of the 70’s marked the start of the VCR era in Malaysia. I remembered one day, my granny came home, and excitedly told us “Wah! Just now I saw the MILO TIN in so and so’s house, it was so nice…” Huh??? What’s so great about Milo Tin? Didn't we have that in our house too? After much talking, then only we found out she actually meant video tape...

還記得 Little House On the Prairie 這套戲嗎? 我以前很喜歡看. 但是每次看後, 心里總會很好奇, 為甚麼在短短的一小時里, 那套戲的早晨和夜晚過得那麼快的呢? 他們是怎樣控制太陽和月亮的起落呢??? 是不是用了一些特別的燈光呢??? 那些燈光真的好神奇哦!!! 能弄到戲裡的白天和夜晚像真的一樣….
Do you remember the show “Little House on the Prairie”? I used to love that show. However, every time after watching it, my mind would wonder how come within that 1 hour, the mornings and nights in the show seemed to pass so fast??? How did they do it? How did they control the movement of the sun and moon? Did they use special lightings? If they did, wow!!! Those lightings were really fantastic, cause they really made the days and the nights seemed so real….Duh…..
