Geli lar...

Was surfing the net and the Gatsby ad popped up. They show Gatsby ads in the cinema before movies with the background song "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands... " I always thought it looked evil and choose the close my eyes whenever it's screened.

Hmm...

Colours Don't Matter

After yesterday's encounter, i decided to play with colours. I wore a bright pink blouse with a pair of blue slacks to class this morning.

Today was my first day as a class representative. I got everything ready before the lectures. The first one went by smoothly. The second one started off well, the lecturer was very clear and funny in his explanation until... he started hunting for 2 students to demonstrate neck examination in front of the whole class. He picked a guy and THEN... pointed right at me!

See! It wasn't about colours afterall. Hmm...

‘Black’. Is it really a bad colour?

Today was the first day of class after a week of Raya break. I decided to be the ‘Lady in Black’ and wore a black blouse and a black pair of slacks.

Out of nowhere, my class representatives said they want to step down and find someone new to replace them for the coming year. And, out of nowhere, my ‘dear’ friend shouted my name. And, out of nowhere, I got the highest vote among the 6 nominees and became the Class representative!

Well, now that it is already a fact, I am trying to overlook the heavy responsibilities that await me, and focus on the blessings that I can give and the benefits that I can gain.

When Cantonese say ‘hak’, it could either mean ‘black colour’ or ‘bad luck’. BUT, mine was purely based on my capability ler :P . This could happen on any day, even if I were the ‘Lady in Red’. Hence, it has nothing to do with ‘luck’, ya.

Mushi Mushi...

I saw a book “Learn Japanese the Fast and Fun Way” on my cousin’s bookshelf, took it out and brought it home. That night, I went through the book with Leslie, learnt a few common phrases. He actually knows quite a bit!

Excuse me = Chotto sumimasen ga
Glad to meet you = Ha-jee-meh-mahsh-teh
May I help you = Nahn deh-shoh
How are you = Ogenki dehs-ka
What is your name = Anata no onamae wa
My name is = Watashiwa no namae xehui dehs
Thank you = Domo Arigato
You’re welcome = Ee-eh, doh ee tah-shee-mahsh-tek
Good morning = Ohio go-zai-ma-tse
Good afternoon = Konnichiwa
Good evening = Kong-bang-wa
What = nahn-dehs-ka
Where = do-ko
Who = dah-reh

Thought these will help me if I ever meet a Japanese patient.

“Ee-toh…” (Hmm…)
