listening to queen's 'bohemian's rhapsody'...
I lurvvve the unexpected twist in its tune.
I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me...
Poor Freddy! Gone too soon.
So many 'gan-tangs'.
That's my sentiments after knowing yet another non-Mandarin speaking chinese.
Nice chap, but very banana or potato. Whatever you wanna call them.
What's up with Singaporeans?
Even MM Lee has released a book about learning mandarin at age 80.
I'm not trying to apple-polish the govt, but I do feel quite strongly about the matter.
It's fine if those people don't have a good command of the language. Not everyone in the world is linguistic. Just don't blatantly turn up noses at Mandarin and snub it to feel superior.
Sounds much like some frigging white man apartheid, except it's the yellow-skinned who are the ones with elitist attitudes. Know some Caucasians who are quite into Mandarin, and even speak it beautifully, putting this higher Chinese student to shame.
Oh well, whatever.
Actually their lingo-handicap or refusal to learn, will be to my advantage.
I should gloat rather than rant.
I'll put my thumb to my nose and go, 'nah-nah-nah-nah'.
