Malay and Me : Encouragement =D


Well, basically this article is a response, actually more like a gratitude, to some people who succeeded to encourage me to get through a MAJOR problem in my life, Bahasa Melayu. It is true that my journey with Bahasa Melayu has not ended yet, but at least I've finished the normal Malay O-level :D

Once, I said that Bahasa Melayu was my biggest enemy. That was the only thing that I 
put emphasis to about Bahasa Melayu although, in some ways, it could be my friend. But why do I 'hate' it so much? It's because Bahasa Melayu is so similar yet so different from Bahasa Indonesia. It's just quite weird that you can't do well on something that, in a way, you have known for life. But then, the differences are the obstacle in this case. I've changed my mind set. Bahasa Melayu was and is simply something that I want to get over with. If I can do well for Malay in secondary school, then I won't have to take Bahasa Melayu as a subject in JC anymore :)
