I remember when I used to play a prank on Ah gua who was waiting for customers in the Changi Village carpark. It was a lot of fun, but also a bit risky.
I was living in the Changi Village area. I had heard about the ah guas who were around the area, so I decided to have some fun. Every night, I’d go to the carpark and wait for the ah guaa to show up.
When they arrived, I would hide in the shadows and watch them. I knew they had to wait for customers, so I figured if I could make them think someone was interested in them, it would be a good prank.
My plan was simple. I would walk up to one of the ah gua, pretend to be interested in them and tell them I won’t pay more than 50 cents, and then run away.
The first time I tried it, I was surprisingly successful. The ah gua I approached seemed to be taken aback by my presence, but I quickly ran away before they could do anything. I was so excited that it worked.
But the next night, I was not so lucky. The ah gua I approached this time was not amused by my prank. She shouted at me, and I quickly ran away and she chased me.
I continued to play my prank over the next few weeks, but I became more careful. I made sure to stay in the shadows, and I never approached any of the ah guas directly. Some times I would driveby and shout at them..
Playing this prank was a lot of fun, but it was also a bit of a risk. I was lucky that I never got caught. I’m glad I was able to have some fun without getting into any serious trouble.
It’s been a few years now since I last played this prank, but I still remember it fondly. It was a fun way to pass the time when I was young.
