Sarawak Vs Terengganu

Orait....I have a reason to put on this title. Thought about this since yesterday but I was too lazy to get up and switch on my laptop. And actually I was thinking of putting the title as Terengganu Vs Sarawak, but then again, nah.....let me put it in another way round. Hahahaha....

Eh....before I continue my writing, first of all, I want to say, "My Kombucha!!! *cries* My Kombucha!!!!" Early morning when I get up I straight go to kitchen to check on my Kombucha, but mom already shifted the place, she put it inside a big jug and she even told me that the old water, she poured it inside the jug already. Wahhhhhhh!!!!! My Kombucha!!!!! That old Kombucha already ripe and the water can be used....and now mom brew a new one....which mean i have to wait for another 14 days before I can harvest it and use the water. *cries* See....this is what happen when never consult me. Haiz~ Nevermind then.....thing already happened...no point to be mad also....just accept the fact that I cannot use the water until for another 14 days. *cries*

Oh....okay....that's just another side topic, nothing to do with the title. Hahahaha.... Like this actually, yesterday I talked to sayang, and then I asked him few terms in Terengganu. Like what is that mean by 'Kemah'? And he told me Kemah = Bagus. Kemah Keming = Bagus Sangat.

Okay, I can remember that. Funny thing about Terengganu language, at the back of 'n' we can add 'g', for example Makan Ikan....it becomes Makang Ikang. Hahahahaha.....funny right? And then, yesterday sayang told me, Kemas, the pronunciation will become Kemah. So, i learn a new thing... 's' we can substitute it with 'h'. For example Ganas will become Ganah. Oh ya.....Lemas will become Lemah. Wahahahahahahaha.....hillarious..... Kemah doh tu.....kemah...kemah..... :p

But then, he told me, when he heard Iban language, everything he heard is like Ketiketiketik....it's like the inside forest sound. Wahahahaha......Just because sometimes I like to talk fast, to make it sounds hard to hear. :p
