Supposed to

I'm supposed to be doing my assignment.. but what the hell..

Had one of the stOopidest Maths class today. The lecturer tought us vectors in Malay! Wow! Unbelievable! What's the point of learning Maths in English during Sixth Form then? Me and my course mates joked that after 3 years, we would be able to translate Malay to English and English to Malay without any problem since most of the lecturers tought in Malay. Hmm.

I read Felicity's blog and i could really feel her about feeling left out because of the inability to communicate in Chinese. Of course, those who have been following my blog know that i went through a lot of pain and anger. But i don't blame my parents/family for not educating me in Chinese, cos they themselves can't speak Chinese! Okay, so my home dialect is Hokkien but then, if you listen to me speak Hokkien, you'll think it's not Hokkien. And at times, i myself hink that it is actually not Hokkien. It's actually some weird language created by my clan. Heh. And i regret not being able to speak Thai. My grandparents can speak Thai well and i hope one day, i can toO!

But anyhows, i gratefully thank my friends here in uni for encouraging me to speak Mandarin. Although i sound weird, but still, if i keep on shying away from speaking, i don't think i will be able to grasp the language properly.

And i need to really go through my Japanese books. If i want to learn Japanese well, i gotta work hard, right? Cos it seems here in uni the Japanese course gets packed the quickest. I envy my cousin in UUM cos she joined this Japanese club which carry out activities such as language learning, making sushi, wearing traditional clothes, singing.. etc.

Am i in the wrong place?
