Hello and Hye ena

So, weekend is here huh? Yaaawwnn.......ok.....doesnt matter, cos its a working weekend for me. Sleepy slow weekend. Its my cycle, to work in alternate weekends. Im used to this. Great thing is, there is no Monday blues for me next week....only Monday wohooss!...hahaha. And some more, i will only work on Weds and Thurs. How cool is that?

When we're in working environment, we always communicate in English, right? The emails in English, communicating between colleagues mostly in English, communicating with bosses would be in English. In fact, this all starts in Uni time. Communicating with lecturers was done mostly in English. Answering exam would be in English. Essays, assignments...all in English. The texbooks all in English. I tried reading a malay book on programming, and hell no i dont understand. I also found malay Physics book when i studied Advance Physics in Uni.....nope, its really strange that i cant understand my own language. Its all because they use malay terms....which really sounds unfamiliar.

Programming = Pengaturcaraan.......get it?

So...is it weird that i feel i cant communicate and convey my ideas in plain Bahasa Melayu well? The other day, i was at office, lepak by the balcony. Me and my friends we were talking about Birkinstock shoes and I said the shoes are comfortable. And suddenly Sukh ask:

'Genggaman dia ok tak?'

And i look at him weird.

'Genggaman?'

'The grip of the shoes. Tapak dia ok ke?.....what do u call 'grip' in malay? Genggaman right?'

'Oo0o0o....grip of the shoes! yeah man, the grip is fine.'

Like example of conversation above, what would u call 'grip' in malay? It is 'genggaman' right? It is suppose to be a usual word right? But why does genggaman sounds funky there? Is there any other unfunky word to describe the grip of a tapak kasut? Or do u think is sounds fine?

Isnt it funny when we find the word in Malay is too bombastic. Padahal memang selalu cakap BM (tapi bahasa pasar). Like Sukh said, 'after several years using English, speaking simple malay also can sound bombastic.' I think it happens like this cos BM can be so pasar. English is a bit more steady. It does not have to much sleaziness in the language.

What Sukh said made me laugh, cos its absolutely true. We have been using English as our (almost) primary language for some years already, which I, sometimes cant find a proper word in Malay. I sometimes feel English language has more accurate word than Malay. Im not doing a Sharifah Amani stunt here (remember Sharifah Amani once said, speaking in malay makes her sound stupid...and then everybody slammed her the very next morning in the papers? even the menteri kesenian makes his remarks on what she said). No, im not pulling 'a Sharifah Amani' here.

There is a lot of beauty in BM. But i just think BM can be too pasar, that when u tried using a proper word in Malay, it sounds bombastic. Of course I can still speak malay. I can speak proper malay but i dunno why, i felt like it sounds a bit......funky. Because like i say, sometimes malay words dont come out right. Just like the word 'genggaman' up there.

Take care all........xOxO

Me, a fiancee

Hye yena!

Currenly im down with fever. Malam ni keje plak tu kan. MC dah amik semalam, tapi lom sembuh2 lagik! Its viral fever cos its getting at my body rreeeeaaally slowly. I had it before and i know how bad it is. I had fever sometimes but not this bad, and when its bad, i know its viral. Lambat sembuh and also very la the hotness...huhuuh. Last time i got viral fever, was last year. Horrible and every nite my temperature would be soaring like an eagle in the sky. 39-40 C and my body would be very weak.

Nasib baik tak rosak otak dan jadi retard kan....eh wait, now that got me thinking...hhm mm =p.

Viral fever, got a class on its own. It is on its own....no flu, no coughing included. Its in its own package - viral fever. Try not to get caught of viral fever, ok.

Anyway.....

Last 30/05/09, me and Din has decided to tie a 'loose knot'.....we were engaged. Well, me and Din has a very long history. I've known him 7 years ago. And during that 7 years, there is good time and there is turbulent time (horrible lowest time in my life). And at certain time, i think i can never ever love him back. Tapi ini la kite kata takdir tuhan. Dia bukak hati kite, and we accept it and it happened to be the greatest thing.

Thank you everybody who manage to came. Farrah, Khom, Marini, Piza, Ros, Suraya, Farah, Ila and Manchett dan hubby mereka. Oh dan Ariz Zafir yang masih dlm perut Ila time tu...haha. Esok lusa tu terus Ila terberanak...hehe.

Awaiting my other friends' turn.... =)

Take care.....x0x0
