For Nabil

Reading my pal Nabil's past blog entries, one of them caught my attention: it was an entry about Malay proverbs, twisted with humour. Therefore brilliant words of wisdom such as

1) harapkan pagar, pagar takleh harap
2) carik-carik bulu ayam, lama-lama jadi shuttlecock
3) sepandai mana tupai melompat akhirnya tak masuk Olimpik juga

Absolutely hilarious, no? Haha. And that's just the creation of someone with too much time on his hands and too fertile an imagination. But imagine if such a proverb were to be practised in real life... like say, during your Secondary 4 Malay Preliminary Examinations, for instance. There's a set of questions based on proverbs, u were supposed to fill in the blanks with those proverbs, and this was your answer

"...mendengar Ska, haruslah Skank."

My friend actually had the audacity to come up with that gem for the above-mentioned exam, while we were still at Victoria School. And he STILL got an A1 for his Malay paper overall. To this day, I still don't know how he managed to do it! O_O

Kau dengan dia satu geng la Nabil...haha
