Salam.
Wasn't long after leaving Brunei for UK, I found myself in France a few days later.
Sad, sebab nda puas rasanya aku menjadi warganegara di NBD.
Aku rindu memandu already.
'Memandu'.
Bahasa Melayu (Malay) for 'driving'.
D'you know?
The first time I heard this 'malay' word being used,
after a really looooong while,
was when I was a passenger of Hafiz.
All the time when he talked,
I was secretly fascinated by his frequent use of the term.
Banar.
Because like everybody else,
I use 'drive' or 'deraib'
where the latter is the English translation and
the former is when spoken with a strong 'malay' accent.
memandu.
cool eh.
Anyway,
first few days in Aix-en-Provence=)

25 things random about
moi
1. Pyjamas = big boy's shirt sans pantalons.
2. It is not unusual for me to speak to a person as if I've known the person my entire life,
and not the last 5 minutes.
3. I can now confidently pronounce,
"wszystkiego najlepszego z okazji urodzin".
4. I have a lot of friends, I suppose it comes with being friendly..
5. ..however I can be a little picky. Still, it's better to want nothing to do with you
than being friends and bad-mouthing you behind your back, no?
6. In spite of assignments, money troubles, LDR and saying goodbyes,
I like where I am right now.
7. My idea of exercising is doing sit-ups, squats, yoga and sauna..
as well as shopping.
8. I just read that it took a plastic surgeon's wife
2 YEARS' worth of squat exercises
to achieve a natural humpy butt...Oh my God...
9. I shall say I am a modest cook.
10. The 'Bucket List' has given me ideas.
11. My eczema comes and goes; recently my GP diagnosed it as
"environmentally-influenced"
12. Pij tries to fatten me up whenever I stay over at hers.
13. I've watched Obsessed, Final Destination and District 9,
all in the same week.
14. Bill Bryson doesn't make me feel bad by being human.
15. Aku nada baju raya baru,
but regardless, I am happy =)
16. Hot drinks seem to increase my metabolism rate.
So, I Love You Tea & Coffee!!
17. A 4x4 girl by heart,
I drive to climb mountains and pesky hilly parking spaces.
18. I don't like this attitude of "everybody else is better than me/us";
no use in being too humble or modest,
because you'll end up thinking lowly of yourself
hence contributing to your low self-esteem.
When you do, how can you feel good about yourself?
19. Truly men (humans) can never be satisfied;
I have lovely dark natural curls cascading over my shoulders
yet I long to do something with it.
20. Kocham cię..
21. I love COLOURS!
Particularly warm ones..Red..Dark Yellow..
22. Everyday I fear of being ambushed by the Fashion Police
- so far, I've been lucky.
23. I don't understand how anybody can be famous for doing
absolutely nothing, at least, nothing worth mentioning.
24. I am proud of my mother tongue, are you?
Cakap Bahasa Melayu Brunei tah sja sma kediaku.
25. Syukur Alhamdulillah,
I am blessed.

YES, I HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE PISSED OFF...

I know it's a fasting month when
Muslims are supposed to try, practise, be more
patient...
...not flipping their lids straightaway...
...keeping selves from being foul-mouth sailors...
patience.
Admittedly,
I have such limited capacity for this particular virtue.
However, this by no means mean that
I am a part-time 'She-Hulk'.
I was out on an errand after Sungkai and
like any normal, civilised, respectable person,
I took my place in queue for check out.
You know what happened next, do you?
Before I even had a chance to put my stuff on the counter,
one late 30s, 40s woman hurriedly placed her basket
onto the counter without giving me a second glance.
Err..Hello?
I said, "Excuse me."
You know, in case she didn't see I was waiting for my turn
for about 5 minutes before she showed up.
That bitch didn't even twitched.
As I drove home in mad fury,
I thought about my culture
and the society I live in.
I am a Malay, Muslim woman
who, when little,
(can't say the same for the spoiled brats now)
was taught to be polite to elders,
to treat them with respect,
so I, in return, can earn their respect.
What pisses me off about the situation is
her blatancy of ignoring me
when I was obviously there.
If she had made a point to look at me
and/or say she was in a hurry
and/or ask for us to trade places
and/or explain her condition of excessive, obsessive line-cutting disorder..
I would have considered those(!) because I am generally
A NICE PERSON!!
So what am I to think?
That some of the Malay elders
just expect a young,beautiful woman like me,
to automatically step back
and give him/her certain advantages
because she's older?
In most parts of Europe I've been to,
whether you're young or old,
well-off or otherwise,
you stand in line and wait for your turn.
you queue up.
Don't just cut lines and pretend you didn't do it.
(don't you just hate when that happens?)
This is a civilization.
There are reasons why certain etiquette, manners are instilled.
After all, is it not for the common good, to live harmoniously in an orderly society?
And you can't even wait for 2 minutes, bu ajah?
Luan jua.

So...

Checked out the quiz and,

Free-IQTest.net - Online IQ Test
Donc...
Am I suppose to ignore the times when I felt stupid
esp where my goldfish memory is concerned? Lol
Nevertheless, regardless of whatever result of the quiz is,
I suppose it is up to you..
to want to know,
to have interest in acquiring knowledge (are they the same things?),
to want to not be ignorant..
Stay in school, kids.

I feel like breaking or hurting something.
