I've got my new IC.. And it's KPC, not MPC.. God knows what it means though :P (Does anyone know?) Its only difference with a MyKad is that it doesn't have any extra features (i.e. drivers' licence, passport info, Touch 'n Go, etc.).. It looks and feels like a MyKad but it doesn't have a 'MyKad' logo at the top of the card.. Oh well, I guess that'll do.. At least I won't need to go to NRD again for some time :P
I went to the NRD HQ in PJ with my dad.. Somehow I think some of the jobs offered in the NRD include a permanently-scowling-with-a-booming-voice officer.. What that person does is hover around the people working at the counters and occasionally yelling at either their staff or customers about something.. In Shah Alam, I got yelled at for not collecting my old (but new :P) KPC.. In PJ, a demure female staff whom I assume must be a newbie got yelled instructions after instructions by her supervisor on how to use the computer system.. I also believe that I would've been the target of that supervisor's vocal chords training if it weren't for my dad's 'kopiah' theory :)
You see, my dad has this theory (which has been proven correct so far) that whenever he wears a 'kopiah', or an Islamic skullcap, people generally treat him better.. So I guess when the supervisor actually chatted jovially with us, reducing the RM100 fine to RM40 to boot, I'm a stout supporter of my dad's theory now :P
I've been thinking about death for some time now.. (Gosh, look how bored I am!).. What would happen if my parents were gone? Who would look after my siblings and I? What would happen to my youngest brother, A? What if one of my friends died? How would I feel? How deeply would it affect me? What if I died? Would people still remember me? And what would I be remembered for?
It's not like I'm asking for death to come by any time soon.. It just makes me think.. As must of a cliche as it is, life's too short.. I've been on the face of the earth for almost 20 years now and there's so much I haven't done..
