Miskonsepsi

berbicara dengan orang putih ini, terutamanya dengan minah yang berasal daripada Scotland memerlukan tumpuan dan ketekunan yang tinggi. bayangkan bila setiap kali dia bercakap, saya kena tenung dalam-dalam mukanya, dan lebih tajam pada mulutnya. entah apa yang Amanda fikirkan bila setiap kali saya bercakap dengannya.

Amanda : Doyathinkthat weneedakod? (ini menandakan percakapannya yang cepat tanpa intonasi)
saya : pardon?
Amanda : doyouthinkthat we needakod to entertheflat?
saya : the WHAT? kod?
Amanda : the kod, yaknow the setof numbers?
saya : oh, you mean the code?
Amanda : yeah, thekod.
saya : -_-". I think so.

sembang-sembang-sembang.

Amanda : Howdoya finda summerseason here?
saya : Quite unexpected actually, a bit chilly (sambil menggigil). but I suppose you are quite used to it, aren't you?
Amanda : Oh yeah, but winter's worse in Scotland yaknow. blablablaaalalsbebebebjedabkasdabsjds (macam biasa bila depa explain something, saya hanya mengiyakan dan kadang-kadang menidakkan saja haha)

semabng-sembang- sembang lagi.

Amanda : So, ifya donna celebrate Christmas, what religion areya?
saya : Oh I'm a muslim. yeah I don't celebrate christmas but I will be having an  eid celebration a month later.
Amanda : a what?
saya : Actually, I am fasting today. We are in the fasting month of Ramadhan right now.
Amanda : Ramadan. I've heard aboutthat. So yahavgot to fast from sun rise till sun set, emma right?
saya : yeah you are. It's been 5 days already.
Amanda : how doya cope with that. I can't imagine to eat before sun rises, it'slike freaking early!
saya : well I am used to it you know since I've been fasting when I was 6 or maybe 7 years olds.
Amanda : How doya feel rightnow coz we've got lotsa work to do. But cancha havelike a sip of water eh?
saya : Naah, we can't. We are not allowed to eat or to drink.
Amanda : reallayh? I don't know about that.

Amanda : Oh I'm dead if it was me !

Supervisor : So, my number-one-bed-maker, why are you taking lotsa dayoff?
saya : I'm gonna have the eid celebration at the end of this month.
Supervisor : so, you are fasting right know, I guess?
saya : yeah. So, what time tomorrow?
Supervisor : we're gonna have a bit of breakfast with the manager of Cleaning Services. So if you could make it at 10 to 9. There will be snacks and sandwiches but since you are fasting, there will be juices and tea for you to sip in too.
saya : Oh great but Anita, actually I can't eat nor can drink. We are fasting, remember?
Supervisor : reallayh? I don't know that you can't have drinks while fasting?
saya : Now you know eh.
Supervisor : So, may be you just come in and sit around the corner of the room haha
