Just annoys me.

I was reading a blog of a friend of mine, and got pretty much annoyed after reading one of her entries. She was saying how she couldn't make sense out of songs of so called cheena singers. Seriously, that pissed me off.

Think about it - Why are you shunning away from that origins of the fucked up blood that's flowing inside your body? Don't mean it literally, but it's a fact. I'm not sure if these people are trying their best to proclaim to the world about their kick ass glamorous or cool image by emphasising the fact that they cannot speak Mandarin, even though they jolly-well can do so. Fluently at that.

It doesn't make you any smarter or cooler if you cannot speak Mandarin. In fact, you're just indulging in a pool of self-denial. Which is really sad. Most of us are weak in the Chinese Language, face it. We know it. But don't exaggerate that fact. You know it? Glory for the world and you, but don't exaggerate it.

Because clearly, by stating that you can make zero sense out of a song shows how much you are actually denying to yourself knowledge of the song. And also because, clearly, you do not also actually understand most of the words of an English song. Face it people, FACE IT. How many of you actually can proudly say that you can make every single word from EVERY damned English song you listen to? Oh, if you do, screw me. But if you don't (which is most likely the case), then SCREW YOU!

Gah... People have degenerated into poor pathetic souls who will eventually become dead matter. Nothing but dead matter. It just makes me wonder what kind of legacy these people will end up leaving. Oh did I say legacy? What a nice word to use on these arsehats. I'm not angry really, just annoyed. That also reminds me of a girl whom I heard from baby, who said that she actually had a friend, who bribed her friends who visited her house, just so as to prevent the class from finding out that her parents are actually Chinese-Educated, and speak Mandarin as a main language at home. Well, GEEZ. Shame on you. As I've clearly noted in one of my previous posts, my parents speak Mandarin as a first language, and they are not exactly the most educated parents around. Well at least I don't go to the extent of denying it, much more bribing.

Pathetically

Disgusting.

The reason why I have a better command of my English Language than my Chinese Language lies in the fact that I converse with my sister (who's really good with her languages) more in English. Turned out my grandparents were totally unable to speak Mandarin at all, irony. And yeah, I did spend my childhood years with them till I was 7 years of age. In case you're wondering, I do have quite a communication problem with my parents. Especially my Dad and his conventional mindset, that never changes. Never will, even if the mountain shifts and the pigs fly. Not that I don't like them or whatsoever, but I just rarely get to see them. They are pure workaholics, 10am to 10pm every single friggin day, even public holidays. That's the extent. And they absolutely love money.

Back from digressing. I've lost the drive to continue to my main topic, but whatever the hell. Tired from cleaning baby's room, with her today. But it was a hell lot of fun =)

Ivan cleaning windows. Laugh assholes, laugh.
