so everytime i update my blog,
my readers would go like, "here we go again"..
"Jenny is gonna be talking bout her pathetic love life and stuffs like that.."
so yeah, im gonna change course for a while and talk about something serious..
and it happened this morning when i read an article about how our own local graduates are losing out in this globalisation thingy..
and u might or might not know why this happens...
well, the reason is due to their lack of proficiency in English..

ok, English is important..
i mean when u travel around the world, looking for a good job opportunity and yeah, widen our horizon for knowledge, we need to have the skills in English..
and i super agree on one aspect in the article where it stated that the graduates nowadays are good in written only, but when it comes to speaking skills, it is least satisfactory..
i mean, we should embrace English language and learn it like how we learn to make cakes..
even if we are not as proficient in it like the native speakers, why cant we just be confident and do it..
teachers' roles are important.. if the teacher dont speak proper English, there goes the English down the drain..
if parents do not expose their kids to the language, there goes the English down the sewer..
if the government are not doing enough to uphold English as much they are doing to uphold Bahasa Malaysia, sorry to say but the statistics are going to increase day by day..

i mean u must be wondering why do i care bout this so much right?
i guess because of my passion in English..
i love this language like how much i love food (very!)
i mean by getting myself proficient in this language, it makes me confident no matter where i am..
i know that by knowing how to speak the language, it would be easy for me to mingle around with ppl, convey what i think or what i feel..
and make myself understood by other people..
and da best thing ever is when ppl who doesnt speak in English suddenly have the drive to speak it bcoz ur motivating them..
and that is the main reason why im so concern with English..
i hope my future kids are good in this language like myself..
and i hope my future partner can accept my language aka mandarin mixed with English.. haha..

anywayz, i seriously hope that this language can stand strong and embraced by everyone without makin a political issue or historical issue on it.. =)
