25 Most Unforgettable 'Bas Sekolah' Problems Malaysians Grew Up With

Mum or dad shouting that the bus is here, but you're still not ready *rushes off to look for socks*

When the bus is late and you are worried that Uncle Bus has forgotten about you

Missing the bus back home because you had too much fun playing with friends

The older, cooler kids standing near the bus door, but you were never cool enough for that
