This is a story of how much I fail in remembering certain terms or names or adjectives when I'm in the middle of a conversation.

#1 Puteri Mandi



Eh eh tengok! Tu kuih yang kita suka makan kat hotel hari tu!

Yang mana ni?

Alah yang bulat-bulat colour putih kunyah macam chewing gum tu lepas tu ada macam kuah colour putih yang dalam dia manis tu!

Ha?

Alaaah yang kuah putih macam pekat-pekat tu yang kuih dia bulat-bulat tu lepas tu ada colour putih dan hijau dalam dia macam manis-manis tu!

*Quizzical*

Alaaaaaaah yang kita semua suka makan tu!!! *Getting exasperated* Ha, yang tu!

*Took a peek at the stall I pointed* Oh! Yang tu nama dia Puteri Mandi! Hish kau ni.

HAH? PUTERI MANI? Oh my God, siapa bagi nama graphic gila??


#2 Onde-onde



This to me is the kuih yang bulat-bulat warna hijau ada bulu putih inti warna brown manis-manis. Of course, if I were to be truthfully honest, I would describe it with how it would sound like when I'm chewing it in my mouth.

Other example of things that I can't find my tounge to say it when I'm in the middle of a conversation would be random things like earphones, pencils, keys, and laptop mouse - which most of the time, I would act it out with gestures like, "Nabila, have you seen my *pokes both ears in laptop and pretends to be singing to something I'm listening to*? Have you seen that around?"

And if I were to play it back in the video, it would sound no way near to something that would make sense to you. 'Cos instead of,

Alah yang bulat-bulat colour putih kunyah macam chewing gum tu lepas tu ada macam kuah colour putih yang dalam dia manis tu!

I would actually say,

Alah yang putih bulat kunyah kunyah chewing gum yang manis kuah dia tu colour putih tu dalam kuih tu manis-manis tu!

I blame this on my mute phase when I was a little girl. My speech is really horrid at times that I stutter and stammer so much that sometimes I have a hard time figuring what I'm trying to say, myself!


P.s. Pictures are grabbed from Google from possibly a Malaysian source. It is not mine, I repeat, I do not claim that it's mine. You know, before some of you start sweeping Malaysia. And just to clarify some things, Padi and Sheila on 7, is ours. OURS. Muahahahahahaha. You can have Faizal Tahir.


Kidding! Do I look like those fuckers who give a fuck about you fucks?
