3.2: The Disco Bus

Kak Dee then took her role as the 'mad driver of penang' and hence, our supposedly-30-minutes-journey to the bus station only lasted less than 15 minutes. Awesome Kak Dee!

Location: The Disco Bus

We were so excited upon entering the bus as it was so colourful that we decided to call it 'Disco Bus'! 


We had no idea the bus is actually a bus lompat. For those of you who do not know, bus lompat is the kind of bus that stopped a few many times at certain places to fetch their passengers. (During the journey, we were quite horrified at first and thought 'Why is this bus is stopping at so many places???") So, our supposedly 3-4 hours journey extended to almost 7 hours! We only reached KL Sentral at 4.30 p.m. 

However, lucky for the bus driver (or else we would definitely kill him), he played a Thailand movie for us along the journey. Let us tell you this; the movie was HILARIOUS. We are not exaggerating but seriously, the movie is the most hilarious one that we had ever watched in our entire life. It was an action-packed movie mafia-kind-of-like movie and so  initially, we did not paid much attention to it as we thought that it would be boring kind of movie. However, it turns out to be so funny and there was even a scene where there was a naked man running on the streets. Some of the bus passengers started to laugh looking at the screen and from that moment on our eyes were glued!

Rabab and Kiko laughed the loudest watching the movie and we suspected other  passengers whom were trying to sleep were getting irritated by those two mischief! Yet, both of us cannot help ourselves. IT WAS HILARIOUS! WE THINK THEY WERE WASTING THEIR TIME BY SLEEPING AS THE MOVIE WAS BEYOND GOOD, IT WAS MARVELOUS! It was a shame though as we could not gave you the title of the movie. We tried to ask the bus driver but when we arrived at the KL sentral, we could not get our chance. Everyone was rushing to go out of the bus, it was pure blessings that we all did not fall from the bus and hurt ourselves like Rabab did before (HAH!).

Then it occur to us how Malaysian movie were still stuck at low par when others are far ahead of us. People who are working in the movie industry need to do something about this. We mean, look at Thailand! Of course if we were to look in terms of development, they sure are behind us but their films are definitely something that they can be proud of. 

Well enough of that now. So, we arrived at KL Sentral at 4.30pm. Our fathers were nagging and complaining what took us so long to reach here (they have no idea what we have gone through!) All five of us exchanged meaningful glances and reached each other for our last hugs. Their nags and irritation did not bother us even a slightest bit. After all, we had gone on a terrific adventure and it was not something that we would ever forget.  This would be the end for our so-called-travelling and yes, we were tired beyond words. Nonetheless,  what we had experience in our three days travelling on our own was purely priceless.
