Just posting this to tell you that I will be on less until the end of the month. I will post more stories and whatnot if I can. The reason why is that I will be working 10 hours a day 6 possibly 7 days a week until I have to leave for school. Then I will have more free time. Not as much since I'm going to be a Junior in College and I have to start taking my teaching courses. But I will have enough time to mod the boards and whatnot.
Good thing is that I will have more than enough money for snacks and whatnot when I'm at school.

Congrats to you both.
Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL)--I imagine there's a great demand for that in your neck of the woods.

thanks, Gal! *hugs* most definitely, Cleg. casual broken English may get one by in the Asian err..... neck of woods. however with increasing economic competition from everyone around locally & China globally, it would be wise to brush up on English & make it from barely passable to effective communication (therefore economically competitive). it was just the other day that a friend told me of a business owner who doesn't speak a word of English is very interested in learning English & willing to pay quite a sum for a private tutor. it looks like this guy may be desiring to elevate himself from coffeeshop business deals to boardroom meetings that close even bigger deals. |

I'm sure a teacher like Janggut is an important addition to Malaysia.
Go teach them Jang!

Congradulations Jang...hope you make lots of money with your teaching... Over here they do NOT ever pay teachers enough for what is required from them...  By the way, what is the "primary" language that you speak..?? Or should I say what is the primary language of Malaysia..?? Is it Malay or Chinese..?? |

thanks, guys. especially Pete. i hope to be able to go to Denmark one day & make every Danish child speak in Cockney English. ;D @ ss -> the official language of Malaysia is the Malay language. however there are many ethnicities in the country; Malay, Chinese, Indian & many ethnic groups. i belong to one in Borneo; Bidayuh. |
