Bobita Golam

All Smiles

Pic: Portrait of Bobita, Bolinao, Philippines, 2004.

Born and bred Sabahan, Bob as we affectionately call her. For three years she was our sole means of getting around in campus, especially to the Institute. It’s a wonder that still amazes us that we managed to fit 7 people within her tiny Kancil (a very small car indeed), me and 6 girls (Eer Malaysian Book of Records can we enter this feat?)! Well it was a tight squeeze but somehow we managed without her car dismantling into pieces. The Royal London Circus clown act must be so proud. She’s also now our resident giant clam expert! Always ready to give a smile, she plays the guitar and sings, what more can one ask for.
