Jimbo Jimbo

If there is one thing I enjoy doing, is going to watch Jimbo perform with The Young KL Singers at The Actors Studio. Last year, in December, before I cut my hair, Pek Ling & I together with several others, went to watch ‘Going Home.’

This time around, Timothy & Connie, Pek Ling & friends, Rachael, Chu Yau & myself, were cheering for Jimbo to come back onstage after the show was over but he in all his blurness, waited for us outside the theatre. Jimbo is a chemical engineer who gets hit on, every time he goes on a diving trip with me, by other girls. He would ask me questions that would leave me dumbfounded……”Eh, Pam, which fin goes on the right foot & which one goes on the left ah?”

He has one trait that Pek Ling & I deplore, he FFKs (Fong Fei Kei – misses appointments). A lot of times. When Greg was around, Greg had his fair share of being stood up by Jimbo when he had bought the movie tickets for our regular movie marathons. He would make apointments that he would conveniently forget because he forgot to tell his ‘sexytary’ about his schedule that he forgot to key into his Palm PDA. He’s built 60 million dollar plants & reinforces the fact that he has 40 people under him & he still can give excuses that he can’t take leave to go diving. And he loves Pek Ling’s pink, polka dotted bikini when in actual fact, it’s checkered. Anyway, I feel like a mother hen when I have to pick on his schedule & remind him often what our plans are for the trips that he insisted we go on. He’s annoying but we still love him.
