- People around me are good people. At least I have poeple to remind me what it's like to be rotten in Hell for the sins right? Nauzubillah. I don't know if I ever deserve heaven but I certainly don't want to be in Neraka Jahannam. I guess I am lucky for having good people around me even when half of them I hardly know.
- It's good that people around me try to speak in English but sometimes it annoys me when people tend to mix English and Malay too often and funnily over what it seems as nothing
eg:
1) You know, I rasa all that tak berkesan pun (all english : You know, in my opinion/ I think that thing will not work or all malay: aku rasakan semua tu tak berkesan pun)
2) I think la kan, that boy tak suka dia pun tau. Dia tu nak jadikan skandal je
3) Kite can make it happen but tempat tu kena tukar la, change place, tukar, I mean temapt tu bagus tp tak berapa perfect for camping kite tu nanti
Pendek kata, geli la! if you want to use English, use all English, if you mix it up like the above examples people will take you as;
a) showing off when you have nothing to show off
b0 pretending your English is good when it is not
c) you are an idiot
It is wrong to judge people and I have learn that over the years of becoming a human but we cannot help it when people have that kind of thinking. Humans are judgmental by nature even when they are trying to deny it. But shoving off that thought quickly and not brooding over it make them a non-judgmental person.
So do think before you speak. and if you are planning to end your sentence with "because..." please finish your sentence with a proper word. You don't have to speak in American or English accent but just be confident when use the language.
- I only speak English with people that I am comfortable with.
- I don't expect some people to come back into my life when my signs are obvious enough for them to understand what I meant. I don't want them to. If you are out of my life, please just stay out of the line. I am never nice. Out of sight, out mind.
- The hardest to talk to is probably your best friend. I boycott stuff but it's hard to say anything when I found a receipt of McD on top of the table. I can only wince but I can't say anything. You guys understand me right? it's more than just a principal. my tongue are tied. I can joke but I can't say a word even in joking manner so it hurts. Despite how open I may look like, I keep a lot more things to myself. I may look like I tell it all but actually I am far more quiet than meets the eye.
- To people who might find my blog a little disturbing for them to future my blog on blog list/ link, I don't mind to be deleted. I have seen some people did that, claiming my blog is not Islamic enough, not good enough (May Allah bless you for making your blog a good one, alhamdulillah). I'm blogging for myself, because I enjoy writing, it might not be knowledgeable but it's me. I'm not trying to be you nor do I ask you to understand me. After all, I hardly visit other people's blog because I am ignorant like that but I do care for those who sincerely care about me.
- The reason that led to this post? I am too tired of reading and writing, in academic sense.

personally,i adore you being all open in your writings...it's a way to say things to people that we can't say it directly to them face to face [friend wise]..I also dislike listening people to mix languages [yg kt mmg leh tau tone dia ala2 nk berlagak dpn kt tu] but then again,we can switch-code, like what I somtimes do if I lose the right word for something in English...it may due to lack of usage [despite the fact that I study here,i seldom speak in English outside the classroom ]....anyways,keep on writing as I'd always visit your blog when I'm free....
p/s: blog ana x best tp sudi2kanlah diri untuk melawat sekali sekala ye :)
ana selalu ape pg blog anti cuma jrg komen je, tp lepas ni ana akn rjn2kn diri ana ttuk komen. Thanks wanie for the word of encouragement. When it gets hard, I want to write it down but living in this circle of people, the judgement comes way too fast than the lighting, so we have to be very careful of what we wrote otherwise there'll one person coming in and commenting, never knew it will hurt my feeling deeper than it already is. It's hard when all I want to be is myself. But I know you would encourage me to write better so jazakillah wanie!
It's not that hard to tell if that person is showing off or trying to learn the language. We are language learner for God sake. Knowing we do speak English, some people will try to show off that they are better. Well if they are better, I never mind, I could learn from their better-ness, but this better-ish people can get to my nerve especially when I have no patience that day. God forbid I would yell at them for speaking ever so mix up. Code switching is fine and like I said, we could tell the show-off and the learner. (gosh, what a tad long reply!)
wanie likes this....hehe...totally agree....I've received some emotional comments that led me to un-authorize the use of ANONYMOUS in my comment section....haha...never knew that i had a very 'special' admirer...ahakz=)
