oo. calling the bursary awardees of Hope Centre has been interesting. :)
while i am still very in touch with my mandarin, the grandma that requested me to speak hokkien or teochew caught me off-guard! rusty rusty ah! haha where has the built-up dialects from clinicals gone to!
i could only say basics of my name, when is the ceremony, where, how many people and the basic "thank-you". anything else, i just masked up my incompetence with some nervous laughter and saying "tio tio" (yes yes) to her active questions. haha!
nevermind. practice makes perfect.
oooo. and challenge 2. a mother asked me if i could speak melayu!
sedikit sedikit! hahaa.
