Back in school (Malay & History)

Thanks to those who reminded me to update my blog.

Was chatting with my friend, nubcake.
And the conversation somehow reminded me of my school days.

Actually, I was just trying to prove that my malay sucks (I wonder why am I being so proud of that lol to the extend I had to compete with her my level of poorness in that language) HAHA.

Sadly, I don't have my BM books anymore..
although I still have the textbooks (but it's useless 'cause I never really write anything in there besides some side notes)

My standard of malay language was so poor that even the lecturer wanted to see me (probably to advise or complain) but being the naughty student that I was.. I never went to see him. Wakakakaka.

Surprisingly, I scored pretty high on that subject during my exams though
*cough* 
serious!!
I guess I just never bothered during classes.

My karangan were so humorous.
I'll give an example of how I used to write them:

"Satu hari, saya terdengar somebody menjerit..."

notice the "somebody"?

Yes.

I used to mix english with malay IN my karangan book.

Why?

Simply because I was too lazy to look into my kamus (dictionary).

Hohohoho

Although I couldn't find the stuffs I wanted to show nubcake, I found other nostalgic stuffs.. that I happened to have kept.

I keep most of my text books because they were very expensive.. although some I have either given or sold.. and some were handed over from seniors lol.

In my previous blog which I no longer have anymore, I once posted about my history book- 
and how.... sad it was.

Since this topic is about malay; let's see how much I know about Malaysian history shall we?

Here's my history book- and I'm holding onto two pages.

(picture taken years back)

Those two pages.. contain what I've studied about Malaysian history.

Yes.

TWO FRIGGIN' PAGES.

My history book was super thick- probably 'cause it contained the whole worldwide history (well, almost worldwide).

And Malaysia only had two pages... hahaha.

Actually, I don't think it's even two pages if seen carefully:

This was the first page(?)
(picture taken years back)

And then, the second:

(picture taken years back)

and that was it.

Finito :D !!

You see, the first page I doubt that it could even be counted as "one page".. I mean it started way towards the end of a page lol.

(Fine, maybe there were a few here and there scattered in other pages, but never mind them).

You may perhaps think that it could be because my school emphasized more on European countries.. but just to let you know,

China had quite a number of pages in this thick book and I remember clearly that I used to struggle with those difficult Chinese names.

Useless FYI: 
I never was a fan of history.. although I love to watch history channel.
I know, I'm so weird hahahaha. I guess watching is more fun than studying :D

Before I end this blog entry, something I found funny to share:


So they want me to pretend I'm some famous person.
(Sorry, I think I accidentally wrote the "a")

And then... I'm not sure if you noticed anything; but I found my answer below kinda amusing:


"Money and......???"

I wanna ask my younger self why didn't I complete the sentence hahahahahaha
