Stuff .....

Guess what?

 -
I passed my driving exam !


Me, Debra, Li May, Nichelle.
They were just so nice and amazing !


I am still hating my new hair cut !

-
Anyway I am vry thankful to God that I passed.
I got a freakin woman tester !
-

And I heard from my instructor that 
if I got a woman to test me,
its just BAD LUCK !

-

So I had bad luck.



No Offence
but I really don't know why 
some Malaysians are so rude.


-
I entered the car and wished her (my tester)  a "Good afternoon".


She grumpily just shook her head and said " Drive."


Inside she scolded me for my steering skills 
and when I said sorry,
She just gave me that irritated face !



That woman had serious PMS
or menopause......

-

I mean really, just chill out !
I'm only a student.



Even after I left the car,
I thanked her and she ignored me.....


 yea... whatever....

-

I passed, and thats all that matters.
Screw her.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have something sad 
which I have been thinking lately...


I realised that I'm not that close
to my family members...
as in my uncles, aunts, cousins etc ....



NOT ALL


but most...
just because I can't talk Mandarin 
nor Cantonese fluently.
Yes I am "a banana"

 -

 Definition 

Chinese + Does Not Know How to Speak Mandarin = BANANA   




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Recently I went out with my workmates...
I really appreciated them suprising me with 
a birthday cake and all....... 



........but throughout the day,
I just felt so akward.



.....which was weird 
cuz while we were working and even after that,
we got together so well.....



We went for karaoke and I could not
read a single damn song in mandarin....


Even when they were talking,
I tried so hard to understand but I could
only grasp a little of the conversation....



Throughout the day, yea.... I felt like a stone.
Just stonning there....



To be honest, 
although I'm a Chinese, born in Malaysia........


I will never get the chinese language...


Its difficult,
Its confusing,
It annoys me sometimes.
It used to give me a headache.
I don't like the high pitchness of it.

...yet very saddening,
because without this language in Malaysia,
Its so hard to get along with people.


 So many people think I'm being snobbish
just because I'm Chinese yet don't talk mandarin.



I can't help it !!!!


I only learned it in kindergarten !
After that, I was enrolled into a private school.
No more mandarin classes.



-

But I still do have to thank this because 
if i was sent to a chinese school,
my mentality would be different.
I would be a different person today.
--

But still, I wished I still knew 
how to talk a little mandarin.


Its just saddening not being able to understand it.

-

And your friends not talking to u 
but among themselves....

-

Seeing them struggle to talk to me in English,
when I ask "So what did she say ?"
Gosh do you know how bad I feel?


To be honest,
yea... I am sad about this matter obviously.
But try putting yourself in my shoes....



A whole group surrounding u,
speaking a language which u barely can grasp.
You feeling isolated and LOST.





Sigh.... 
This post goes out to all the "bananas"....
I feel for u.

Places I go with my brother.


 As some of u might know,
my brother takes me 
to a lot of places....

-

..... Especially this one time, 
when I was doing my
photography assignment on reflections.


-

These are some of the places which he took me too...

-
And btw,
I did not photoshop my pictures 
for this post. tq.

-


 This place was off the road.
They were even aborigines
fishing over here ! 


He literally brought me
to the middle of nowhere  !


The reflection shot here is not that nice.
I could have gotten a better shot if it was not
for the trees and plants and the steep slopes.


There were many many butterflies there,
it was almost surreal.


He helped me a a lot that day.



He also took me to the city...
.....and into random rooftop hotels.


This place was off the road AGAIN, 
so I don't know the place.
But I do know its around Ampang.
These two retarded geese above were so fierce !
There were approaching me, squawking so loudly.



Sunflowers !



I have never experienced goats so near me before...




...... well, except for mutton.


Hot Spring ! 


 Waterfalls !





I took this picture from a park.


We had to climb in the gates of the park
with my tripod and all just to get these snapshots !
Amazing experience.



At a hotel in Kuala Lumpur.


In Putrajaya. 

I took this shot by setting the tripod legs
on the door of the car, and on the chair cushion.


The police came eventually..... Darn !

-
In a nutshell, this was an amazing night.
There are way more photos and places actually
but I deleted those as the speed of my pc was lagging.

-

Alright, I have to get some shut eye now.
I have a job briefing soon.
Goodnight =)
