There has been someone I've been wanting to meet ever since I was 14 years old but never had the chance.. 2 or 3 years ago, he became a lawyer. Ever since then, I have never seen him again. Seems like he was traveling around the world.
I've realized there is so much to the world that I've yet to see. I am cooped up in this small world and being able to go to Hong Kong once has already made me so happy. If I get to go to Europe, I think I'll be insane every night. Sometimes, money does wonders. No wonder people say it can buy you happiness and for once I have to agree with them.. But, the right sentence would be money can buy you happiness temporarily.
But seriously, I am young and reckless and I still have not found out the full meaning of life. I don't know what is my ambition and I feel like I am walking around an empty room aimlessly. Maybe sometimes, I will learn to sit down, face the wall and reflect. But sometimes, reflection gives me a headache. Am I up to it to do what I am doing now? When I get a headache, I will choose to stand up and walk around again. What should I do? God, show me the way.
Anyway, I have a question.. Which of the following is the correct statement?
A)I have never walk on mars.
B)I have never walked on mars.
I have realized that we are so used to speaking in Singlish that it sounds like normal English sometimes even though it's wrong. I've always had in mind that English Language is the easiest subject to teach but I have proved myself wrong today.
English Language is like a game without the manual. You don't know where to start teaching from and there are no instructions. You play the game and if you get it, you get it. If you don't you just have to keep playing till you get it. And the more you play it, maybe the more you'll get better at it. And if you don't have interest in the game, you'll never get it. By the way, I am talking about the English that they learn in primary school.
If we could speak proper english, it would sound beautiful. (:
