So here I was sitting at home with conjunctivitis, and wanted to share my experience with another airline: But it got me thinking, why am I so critical on airlines? I reread my blog entries (from my other blog account), and most are on airlines, and I just realize how I wrote back then and now are kind of different..
That's when I came to the conclusion: My English is getting worse!
Oh well.. Must be from lack of practice and use. Huhuhu.. The other day also, I was chatting up with a new found friend of mine from Kuching,Sarawak, and we spoke in Malay Sarawak. I keep on making mistakes in the conversation. So I changed my medium to English.. This is so against my principal but what to do? If I speak in English, it'll be mostly English, and no mistakes.
So as a personal observation I think I can only speak Malay to family members and maybe old friends who I'm comfortable with. Speaking Malay is so hard especially with people u just met, what's with how to address urself and other people. Whether to use I/U, aku/kau, saya/awak, or the 3rd person calling thingy.. Arghh, so confusing!
Oh, and I was also chatting up with a friend from Hokkaido,Japan. I told him "Hey,I got red eye". Now.. how Malaysian is that? As supposed to " Hey,I have the red eye"? LOL! Oh no, my English is getting more Malaysianized by the day!!
I guess I'm embracing my culture and language by the day then.. I just hope my English and Malay won't be too bad in a few months and years to come!
