Wei shenme wo....

I still don't get it: How is it that I enjoyed learning French but NOT Chinese?


Okay, maybe I have the answer: French is more thrilling than Chinese.

No wonder despite my many attempts to learn Chinese, I still fail to string a simple sentence.

Wo bu xihuan _________________ You see? I don't even remember if the pinyin is correct. Don't even know what/how to express.

Limited vocab + horrible pronunciation + pure ignorance of the 4 tones + insanely difficult Chinese characters = I can never get along with the Chinese language.

And to think I can find a JOB that doesn't require me to speak Chinese...Even as copywriters. The only saving grace is that my English is sophisticated - my "communication skills are of the highest order" (Gilmour, 2012). (Yes, university taught me to cite everything).

Macam mana ni?
