Let's face it, English is a stupid language

There is no egg in the eggplant,
No ham in the hamburger
And neither pine nor apple in the pineapple.
English muffins were not invented in England,
French fries were not invented in France.

We sometimes take English for granted,
but if we examine its paradoxes we find that:
Quicksand takes you down slowly,
Boxing rings are square,
And a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

If writers write, how come fingers don't fing?
If the plural of tooth is teeth,
Shouldn't the plural of phone booth be phone beeth?

If the teacher taught,
Why hasn't the preacher praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables,
What the heck does a humanitarian eat?

Why do people recite at a play,
Yet play at a recital?
Park on driveways and
Drive on parkways?

How can the weather be as hot as hell on one day
And as cold as hell on another?

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy
of a language where a house can burn up as it burns down,
And in which you fill in a form
By filling it out
And a bell is only heard once it goes!

English was invented by people, not computers,
And it reflects the creativity of the human race
(Which of course isn't a race at all.)
That is why:
When the stars are out they are visible,
But when the lights are out they are invisible.

And why it is that when I wind up my watch
It starts,
But when I wind up this poem
It ends.

Happy Merdeka Day!!!

It's been a very very long time since I've upadated here.

Many things happened. I fell in love again. I got an allergy which caused red dots all over my arms and legs. I did many many things that I've wouldn't have done if I was still in Sibu.

Sometime's I'm happy, sometime's I'm gay. But other times I'm down in the valley, and feel really bad for myself.

Sometimes, or once, I found out that meeting someone or seeing his smile would really brighten up my day! His smile is so so so charming that I wonder what toothpaste he's using.

I love a little piece of poem that my friend told me.
~Love starts with a smile, blooms with a kiss and ends in a tear.~
Well, it's not exactly a poem but, you know what I mean...

I fell in love with his smile. I really did...

Last week, I went to Midvalley to see ChaiLing who's stopping in KL for an afternoon before flying to India. WY, EC, Jac and Shin was there too, not to mention CL's cousin. I was really sad to see her off again, but like I told her, I'm glad Alexander Graham Bell invented a thing called the TELEPHONE!!! Because of this invention, it made me feel as if she's never gone so far away to study...

Ok, my energy level is near zero again. Time to recharge...

I'm going to TimeSquare later to see MeiChyi. Then perhaps, if she feels like it, we'll go to the movies to see Ratatouille... hehehehe ^_^

Night night, and happy birthday malaysia... :D
