When expressing oneself, one can pick so many words to express a particular feeling or emotion. And I wanted a French speaking friend with whom I could practice the language with…turns out eventually that person became my boyfriend!”

And the competition there is tough; it’s so much more chilled in Malaysia and the people are just so much more relaxed. That’s what I miss.”

“No, it just doesn’t feel like home.”
“So where would you prefer to live and work?”
“Subang. Or as I like to call it, the bang.”
“You sure about that?”
“Hands down both feet on the ground.”

“I took 3 years off to be with my kids to be close to them, and that is something that I do not want to miss out especially in their early childhood. I want them to grow up knowing their mother. Those 3 years was also a good way to clear the mind off from all the work. Even my husband felt the same thing when he took a year off to do his MBA, it was a refreshing time, especially for those who have been working professionally for a long time. Did you know I was a sports person when I was younger? I know its hard to tell it from me now, but I was a really active sports person. I’ve been wanting to do sports again, now that my kids are older.The challenge is to be a good wife, mom and employee. And I’m glad that so far, I’m doing alright.”

Girl: “I just bought these LP records and have my own turntable (modern LP player). Its a way for me to be nostalgic about the past, and to remember my grandmother and the olden times. And there is actually a difference when you play songs on the LP- it actually sounds better”.
Guy: “I love vintage stuffs. I’m just pretentious”.

I do it all the time. We do it all the time. Yes I’ve heard about people saying don’t use your phones while you are with them, but the thing is I see my colleagues every single day – in the morning, for lunch, at work, and for dinner. It has come to a point where there’s nothing else to talk about. So that’s why we flip out our phones”.

I’m comfortable being alone and I enjoy it because I’m doing something that I love, like reading, and people should do the things they love on their own time too. Their own me time. You can do a lot of things on your own time, like learning new things, calming down and think to oneself without having others interrupting your thoughts, and reflect and enjoy one’s hobbies. But yes, there should be a time for being with friends, and a time to be on your own – a balance. Also when you’re around people you tend to rely on them all the time, so when you’re alone, it forces you to rely on yourself.”

“We both study in an all-girl’s school, hang out in the surau during recess, and more or less are the class clowns. We also speak fluent Kelantanese to each other, even though we have moved to KL to work.
Difference is, she is a Muslim while I’m a Chinese. I have bright red hair and tattoos while she is a conservative girl who dons the hijab. Whenever we walk together in shopping malls or have dinner after work, we received curious stares from passers-by.
She’s never judgmental and accept me for who I am, and I do the same for her. I’d like to think that’s how 1Malaysia should be. We’re not just tolerant of each other, but we embrace and celebrate our differences.”

Made some few male friends and after a few drinks, they asked me “Rezal, this is a personal question, but…are you gay?”
“I was surprised, and I asked them back “Why do you ask”? They replied, “Did you know that this is actually a gay bar? In fact, the whole district here caters to LGBTs”. No wonder I didn’t see any girls that night!”
I told him that maybe his true colours has been finally revealed.
