JONAH month..

Come to think of it.. April is a very JONAH month for me. Lots of my unwarranted life event happened during this month as long as i can remember.

About 11 years ago ; a tragedy strucked me , Dil and Fiqar . We were involved in a bad car accident ; more because of our own doing. Cant really blame anybody else for it. THe funny thing is it happened near home.. and it was at noon.. on the 2nd of April 1994.

DIl's dad just bought the new AEROKIT.. A sports car version of PROTON AEROBACK. At that time i suppose it was the "in" car and only few were made. Waiting for SPM results which was just around the corner , we had plenty of time. The trigger was simple , Fiqar somehow happened to be at my place , Dil ringed me up ; ajak gi kedai beli santan... hehehehe.. it was that simple at about 12 noon !!!

So off we went , the three of us to Ravoof Anwar ( the current Perodua car store )And beli la the santan. The car was fast.. and it was really stupid for us to act as if we were race drivers. On the way back , Fiqar drove the car , me on the passengers seat and Dil at the back.It was ok initially.. but suddenly another car came and sort of "tried" us... so apa lagi kan.. macam cikgu la mengajar kawan...


giller..damn... 

And as we approach a corner ( Jalan Datuk SUlaiman stretch ).. there was a car in front of us which was travelling at a snail's speed.We went panic.. The car got out of control.. We hit the centre divider , the car flewwww offff .... macam cerita stunt!!! I remembered that the car made a double twist on air.. and we landed on our roof.. "turtle" bak kata org kita... and it skidded... Here .. Dil actually slipped out of the car through the broken back window. The car skidded more than 10 meters i think.. My head hit the roof and i cant really remember what happened next.. mengucap jer la at that time.. thinkin.. was it time for me to go ?

The next thing i know.. We were upside down...trapped in the car. Fiqar was already out of the car..he was calling me to get out of the car.. I was not able to get out as my side was dented . The only thing that urged me to get out of the car was my recollection of cars that blow off after accidents in the movies !!! hahahaha.. I had to crawl out through the drivers seat.. The traffic went to a halt.. People actually stopped to help us out ; being prime time after half workin-day Saturday.

We were all lucky to escape with minor bruises. The car really looked bad as how you can see from the picture.I suppose , somehow we escaped death unhurt. I suppose , it was not suppose to be our time ; we were young and reckless. But i guess it was an experience of a lifetime ; i can still remember the thrill ... It was so adrenaline... Even the feeling of my roller coaster rides across the continent will never match the RUSH i had when we were tumblin over that day...
