Exactly a year ago, Joyce & Ash saw a magnificent sunset


Mind Your English, PLEASE.

Most of my friends know how fucking emo i get when i see spelling or grammar mistakes
Or hear people mixing up ‘lend’ and ‘borrow’
Or see people mix up ‘lose’ and ‘loose’ in writing

I mean, it’s not that difficult to get grammar right you know
Peter & Jane taught us all that since kindergarten, kan?

I know i annoy some people by doing it tho :p

“Why is it black colour??”
“Black.”
“…Huh?”
“Just black. Dunnit to say colour.”
“… -_- … Joyce, don’t be annoying okay.”
“Sorry… just that.. bah nevermind.”

So anyway, i was at this concert thing the other day
That was to raise money for elephants
Just as i seated myself, i heard the emcee’s FranDrescher-like voice
Eeyer… who la is that
I thought to myself and looked around

Then i saw the emcee
Bah it was that Xandria girl who won the Hitz.tv contest

I don’t have anything personal against her cos i don’t really know her
It’s just that i’m still blar over the fact that she won the contest based on donations into a bank account and sms votes through that
Just reminds me abit of Veruca Salt and how she got her Daddy to buy her many many chocolate bars just to get the Golden Ticket

Anyway. I still stand to the fact that her england cannot make it.
Her pronunciation is damn off.
Her slang is damn off.
I was cringing most of the time she spoke.

And my mouth gaped open and eyes widened in disbelief when she got her england lagi wrong.
Instead of saying, “… Malaysian elephants…”
She said, “… MalaysianS elephanT…”

WHAT.

THE.

FUCK.

As an emcee, you can’t bloody get your English wrong!!
It’s just such a shame that so many of the expatriates present would think that Malaysians can’t speak proper English then.

>_<

Xandria is a pretty girl.
I think she just needs to buck up on her speaking skills.
Because there are so many people out there who can speak up better and it’s just not fair that she holds a contract due to her family’s and her campaigning.

jADlsjlkk see there i go again emoing about her win.

:p

    Well look at it this way. Proper inflection and suitable pauses in sentences can mean very different things. It’s the difference between ‘I helped my Uncle Jack off a horse’ as opposed to ‘ I helped my uncle jack off a horse’.

  2. xandria, a pretty girl?
    nah. her forehead is too small.
    mwahahahahha.
