Miscell Talks: In Indonesia now!

Helloww... guyss.. now i can't surf the Internet daily, coz now I'm in Jakarta.. It's not that the internet here is slow or wadever (ya its slower then singapore's but im fine with it.. its not too slow, anyway..), it's just that.. DAD ALWAYS USES THE COMP!! Grrr!!! I'm fine if he uses it to work, but the fact is, HE PLAYS THE COMPUTER GAMESS!! and the duration is not one or two minutes, he takes HOURS! -.- Now, if the condition is like this, can anyone tell me who to blame? my dad? or IT people who invented the game?

ANyway, moving on from daddy's talk, let's discuss the CAMP..!! HAHA!

Did i tell you earlier that i hate camps and wished not to go for it?

Honestly speaking, i kinda enjoyed the 3 days 2 nights event.. LOL.. I was the Co Facilitator -.- and that was the first time i became a gl.. jadi gini loh, gimana yah? ah susah ngomongnya. Pokoke gw tuh orang penting d di grup itu.. And yes, Douglas was right: It is always nice to be the most important person in the group.. LOL. And there is 1 thing i wud like to say: ---that was the best camp in my life so far--- Dunno how to put it in one para la.. i prefer talk than type. lol apalagi kalo ngomong pake indo.. wahh.. best deh!

International Connection Camp 2006


Neways, Kyknya gw ngerasa si itu ngebacain blog gw regularly deh.. wahh gawad!! Mesti post pake indo.. Huwahaha... dia kan ga ngerti bahasa indo.. ckck.. payah deh.. padahal bahasa kita kan boleh dibilang kerenn (duh ini narsis apa chauvinist?)

Back to English. The results are out! Yeahhh!! I got a DI for Freehand Drawing! Huh.. Why not DI for all?? LOL.. Human beings.. never satisfied -.- Yea.. DI for FreDr, A for NMM, B+ for Communication Skills (what?? Listen people! Communicationnn Skills!! LOL) and B for Econs, Stats, and Accounting... Huhuhu.. Kinda sadd... I should get an A for statistics and B+ for accounting!! Aaarrgghh!! Poor me, must have scored quite badly in the exams.. T_T

Anyway, yesterday my relatives from Beijing, China, came to Jakarta and my cousin organised a feast to celebrate their visit (cum his birthday). They are families from my dad's side. Ok lemme put it this way.. They are my paternal grandmother's sister's sons and daughter. Goddit? Lol. Being born and bred in China for over 20 years, they cant speak bahasa indonesia, not even english!~ And guess what?? Thinking that LOUisa has been living in Singapore for almost four years, my aunts and uncles thought that I can speak MAnDARInn!! ~_~ they forced me to sit near them and talk to them, and be their interpreter when needed.

i was like.. oh my! what on earth??

oh-K. tell u the ReaL REAL truth: I Cant Speak Mandarin!! Living in Singapore is not helping. Why? Coz i dont use that language! I learnt it for years, but whats the point when you dont use it? But yea, i am forced to LISTEN when my friends talk, that helps a little.

Err.. No. That does not help! Why? Beijing people speak like there is something on their tongue. It was accenteddd!! ~_~ Instead of na li, they say na er.. their 'zhang' is heavy, not like singaporeans who say 'zhang' like 'chang'. X_x

Serious, Singaporeans are good in making languages a lot easier.

Alrites. I told my aunts that i cant speak mandarin. And guess what? Then they all didnt believe me coz i talked to the guests initially, like.. : ni men shen me shi hou hui qu? (ok wadever, forgive me if my pinyin sux.) But that was just a super basic mandarin! And because of that, they think i was a pro in mandarin.. ohh.. but thank God, my mum was there. She was the only one who talked to them that day. Lol. I guess that's because she was the only one with the most fluent mandarin in the club. Haha! My paternal families cannot speak mandarin. It's true that they are 'huaqiao's, and my paternal grandmother can speak mandarin (although not really fluently), but my granddad couldnt. My granddad was soo old he went to school during the dutch occupation, and this resulted in him being able to speak dutch (and not mandarin).

So, is Dutch + Mandarin = Bahasa Indonesia?

Lol.
