song 80 : Direct translation

Got this joke through an email.

Why the Malaysian Government insists on using English for
math and science?

This is because the whole world uses the language as an
information and/or technology language. How dangerous it
will be if we try to use Bahasa, especially in school. See
example below:-

Hardware = barangkeras

Software = baranglembut

Joystick = batang gembira

Plug and Play = cucuk dan main

Port = lubang

Server = pelayan

Client = pelanggan

Try to translate this:

ENGLISH:

That server gives a plug and play service to the client
using either hardware or software joystick. The joystick
goes into the port of the client.

Now in BAHASA:

Pelayan itu memberi pelanggannya layanan cucuk dan main
dengan menggunakan batang gembira jenis keras atau lembut.
Batang gembira itu akan dimasukkan ke dalam lubang
pelanggan.

Song 79 : home!

I'm back here again.
Ns food is getting suckier by day.
but the life there is getting more fun by day.
I'm really enjoying myself now.

believe it or not, I'm the only english educated chinese in this whole camp! So all of my conversations with chinese are in mandrin, except with cek siang who wants to improve his spoken english. In case you guys don't know, Cek Siang is the son of CRC's cook and also the first person to speak to me in this camp!
I think I'm no longer a banana, maybe a bana, but just you wait, "the yellow outside but white inside" label will be lifted from me one day.

so I made many new friends from kelantan and Hualian.
Kelantan ppl are super friendly and are really a ready to mix flour~
Hualian friends are cool and they speak real wisdom.
Besides that i managed to befriend people from Kedah, Selangor, and Perak.
Great people~

However, a lot of the Ipoh Mali boys really drove me up the wall. Their faces are branded with arrogance. They are also a bunch of desperados who seems to be begging in the streets for girls' attention, lowering the intelligence of men to the level of a slug in the eyes of the girls along the way.

So the best thing about Kem Jiwa Murni is the Sky!
the cloud formations are the best!
Sometimes i wish they would just give us an hour or so to gaze at the heavens.
anyhow, my eyes are always transfixed in the sky whenever there is a football match uninvolving my kompeni.

I'm enjoying my Character Building classes. Despire the fact that we are treated like little kids, I like it! I dont know why but i damn like it! haha.
Maybe because i have great classmates!

so how's it so far?
So far so good!

here, I've
met people of the same wavelength,
met people of the same interest,
met people who treat me great,
and even met people who can read my mind and actions!

I' ve never been happier in one whole month as far as i can remember!
So i hope this joy will never end!
