Some guy came to our table at the kedai makan somewhere in Tanjung Malim.
Dude: As- Salamu Alaykum~ (based on a National Geographic's journalist's article, From the West Bank)
Moi: Wa Alaykum-us-Salam. *homeboys startled*
Dude: Nie kami nak bagi satu borang soal selidik, nak mintak sedare-sedare tolong isikan ehh?
Moi: Boleh-boleh. *Smiling*
After the dude left, the homeboys asked why do I replied him like that just now, I simply said,
Moi: It's just a language. It's okay to reply like that.
*Weird look given*
Yeah. So... I am used to these kinds of faces and all. No matter, language is not owned by people yah? So... in Malaysia, only the Muslims are allowed to speak Arabic and that's final. Yeah right. Like I care. First and foremost, Arabic is a language spoken by the Arabs no matter what religion or race or background they are from. Simply put, it's like Bahasa Malaysia and the language is spoken by all people form various identities and all. No one owned language and language is free for all to learn or listen or whatever shit they wanted to do with it. Yeah.
Sometimes I just cannot understand that these Arab wannabes wanted all for their own. Like PLEASE~ Language is not yours yeah? Often people will apologise to me when their said their salam to me. I don't mind actually, I can reply. Hell, As- Salamu Alaykum means 'Peace be upon you', not replying means that I am not in good terms with that specific kind of people right? Yeah. Logically thinking, what I am saying here is true, right? Even when the Chinese said 'ni hao ma?' or whatever they are saying, I will try to reply them in their own language. Am I right? I got this kind of enlightenment when my pops said the same thing like what I said above. So yeah, pops and kid is now on the same kind of mentality. Don't care. I wanted to learn Hebrew if I could. Even Arabic. What the hell? Better to know a bit than nothing right? Yeah. And... Is it so wrong to reply in Arabic? My great aunt told me its salah to speak in Arabic. Like, ' what the hell?' Out of respect, I just nodded knowing that it's not salah to speak Arabic.
It's ok. 'Peace be upon you' in Hebrew sounds similar too. Shalom aleichem. Hehe. So yeah. Arab wannabes! Beware! I can speak Hebrew too!haha... If these serbanistas suddenly barked at me for replying their salam, I can just said...
*imagined situation*
Serbanistas: As- Salamu Alaykum!
Moi: Aleichem Shalom!
Serbanistas: Hey! It's wrong for you to said that! Masha- Allah!
Moi: What? I replied to you in Hebrew okay? F- you man.
*like it's going to happen right?haha*
Language is just language. Not more than that. It will and always will stay that way. Yeah.
Guys are males. And males are creatures full of testosterone and one hell of an egomaniac beast. Yeah. For you who listens to Bob Marley's 'No Women, No Cry', you guys are in the shit. That song is only fit for guys who love their women dearly and she only.
'No Women, No Cry' is a Jamaican slang which means, 'No women, Don't cry', or simply put, jangan menangis kaum Hawa. Just like that.
'No Woman, No Cry' is a romantic song from a husband to his beloved wife. It's a song about a husband who works for his beloved wife and wishes her to stay strong and be by his side be hard times or vice versa. He wanted his wife to stop crying and and be strong and all. It's a romantic song ok? Here's a chunk of the song's lyrics.
'Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,
Of which I'll share with you;
My feet is my only carriage,
So I've got to push on through'
I think that is so sweet of him to his wife. It's not a song where you can fuck your women and leave her on the bed all by herself. I love women and I kinda don't have respect dudes who treat women like some toys.
I still remembered last year during my orientation in KHAR, a kolej kediaman made for UPSI's students. There was this guy who looked down on women so much that he disses them in front of their face. Damn. I was really pissed off, silently, at this guy. I don't even remembered his name. Most of the dudes supported him and I am the only one not cheering together with the rest. he said that women were weak and and guys can crush them anytime. Like 'wow'. I wondered...is his mum a dude? He can diss women as easy as he said 'hi' to his species. Damn. This guy's parents are gays I assume. Yeah.
Women are beautiful. I love watching beautiful women. It shows that the Almighty have a great taste in finer things in life. Yeah. We dudes without women are just like a living doll, just admit it. Even the strictest of serbanistas will also fall for beautiful women. Yeah. I am a supporter of Girl Power, and I know girls can kick ass as powerful as dudes do. I thank God for women! Yes!
Kedai mamak? They are random.
So....
Shalom aleichem and long live Girl Power!
Peace!
