There were times when I miss you so much, I wanted to rush to the airport and buy a ticket bk home.
There were times I miss you so much that I wanted to cry when I think of you...
Although am going bk in a week, the nearer the days are...more impatient I am...crazier I get...
Never thought to be apart is this hard...
I wanna tell you - 'I dont want to be away from you for this long...I cant stand the feeling of missing me...they are 'eating' me bits by bits...'

How have you been living your life?
We lost our identity...
They were surprised...we speak their language, at the same time we speak many other languages...
We speak Malay (which we have been speaking quite a lot this whole month...)
We speak English, very fluent English, fluent than anyone of them who are here...
We speak Mandarin, the official language of the mainland...
We speak Cantonese, the language of this island...
They were confused who we are...we have the same face that they have, but we are Malaysian.
We were thought to be the Chinese from China...but we do not have neither the Shanghai accent nor Beijing accent...
We were thought to be Macau ppl...but our slangs are different...
I was even thought to be Korean...but till now none of them know I can speak Korean and yet always talked bout us, Malaysian, in front of me...
Do the Chinese from the mainland not know hundred years ago some of your ancestors migrated to South East Asia to work? Havent they learnt World Chineses? Do not tell me they do not have such thing as we have World Englishes. Do they not know there are places at the other part of the world who can speak Chinese? Would they even faint when they see Indian in our country speak Chinese? What have you been feeding yourselves in your life all this while? Coach bags? LV purses? Bobby Brown cosmetics? and mengagung-agungkan the Cabbage...Do you even know how's their culture like? Or you only know the Cabbages from their drama series? Go out and learn some knowledge of the world...I even doubt if they know how many races are there in Malaysia or Singapore? What kind of lifestyle we are leaving?
Do the Cabbage even know where is Malaysia? Who Malaysians are? You are so full of yourselves...Full of your own culture...And so proud of being agung-agung by the Chineses. There are many other races here. Do you even care to know more about the culture of other countries?
I have been a fly on the wall for the past few weeks...to observe the ppl where my ancesters came from...and the Cabbages...YOU really disappointed me...
