Malaysian? Chinese?


Haven't been blogging for quite some time. Malaysian friends came over last night to try out my first ever TomYam Fried Rice! Haha..turned out to be not too bad..and thanks Douglas for rating my fried rice 4.95 out of 5..Hmm..being away from Malaysia is already a challenge..describing that I am a Chinese Malaysian has given me more than a hard time..I have been mistaken by many that I am from China.


"You are from China, right?"
"Errmm..nope..I'm from Malaysia.."
"Oohh..I see..But you look like a Chinese.."
"Eerrmmm..Yup..I'm a Chinese..But I'm from Malaysia.."
"OOoohhhh..I see...You mean migrated there?"
"EErrrrrmmmmm...not really..I was born in Malaysia..and I'm a Malaysian.."
"Blahh..Blahh..Blahhh......."
"...."

But no regret being a Malaysian..Thanks to the British who colonised Tanah Melayu..When most of the Chinese here are having difficulty to converse in English, we Malaysians have no hard time communicating with the students from other countries..They were surprised that we can actually speak Chinese as well. Bukan itu saje..kami pun boleh cakap Melayu..我地仲识讲广东话 ! Haha...MALAYSIA BOLEH!!! But when it comes to German..Adrian tak boleh lah..Mein Deutsch ist noch schlecht! Hardly have the chance to practise much as I'm in an International Degree Program where most of the students are not Germans..so..I need some more, more, more time..

Life has not been too bad here..but it's just getting colder here..and I just can't find any Char Siu Bao here..and life just seems a bit boring here..and I'm just so lost here..Anyhow, I am lucky enough to have some seniors watching my back..I also have many other Hong Kong artists from TVB and Scofield from the prison to accompany me..Ahaa..

Hmm..have been wondering how my buddies in Form6 doing their STPM now..They are gonna face something I faced half a year ago at TAR College..It's like so desperate to have all the exams done as soon as possible, but at the same time being caught in a dilemma that their school days together are numbered. After 18months of Pre-U course, friends are leaving each other for their ambitions..Life is realistic..So the least thing we can do is to keep connected with the best and true friends we possess..label them the "Life-Long Friends"..

All the best buddies!!
