The Continuation

Hehehe, I managed to continue from the previous post.. yehaa!!


The Advantage Of The Third Language

Okay, this morning we had another interview sessions, continuation from yesterday... Today's candidates are far more better that yesterday's. I was actually impressed by one Malay female candidate, who can actually speak very fluent Mandarin. She can also read and write in mandarin. She'll definitely get the job! One look at her, and you'll think that she's just another typical-Malay-wearing-baju-kurung-and tudung type of girl, but she got that plus points. She actually went to a Chinese school, that's why.

Being able to communicate in another foreign language other than Malay and English actually makes you stand out from the crowd. I wish I had known another language besides Malay and English... Hmm, I actually took Japanese back in my university days, but it was only up to level 1, and I passed with flying colors. We actually learned the Hiragana (the basic writing for Japanese), in which if you're in Japan, Hiragana is taught in kindergartens, hehee...
I still know how to write them, well, at least I think so... I really wish that someday I'll have the chance to continue Japanase language up to the highest level, so that I'll be able to communicate confidently in Japanese. Although being in Malaysia you actually don't have that much chance to use that language (unless if you work in a Japanese company, and your boss is a Japanese) but still it is a plus point.

Then maybe I can learn Mandarin pulak.. then learn Arabic, then learn French (coz they say it's the most romantic language in the world), then learn German, then learn Latin, then learn Russian....
