ramai yang malang.

Assalamualaikum wbt.

baru pulang dari kelas general linguistics. hari ini kami akhirnya masuk tajuk syntax. my favourite. kami belajar tentang argument dan thematic structure. memang best. and today i found out that Dr. Rodney actually entered university at the age of 16. gila advanced ini lecturer. katanya he skipped several grades. gulp! and he obtained his first degree in biochemistry at the age of 20. later on, he studied for his second degree in english. no wonder lah Dr. selalu nampak muda. memang muda pun. hilarious and cynical pulak tu.

but that's not what i wanted to share today. during the lesson, we had to analyze this clause which says 'she loves you'. dan Dr. pun mula lah sesi merapu dia dan tanya ada tak any girls in the class yang bertepuk sebelah tangan. nasib aku tak angkat tangan. tapi ada jugak yang angkat. hebat-hebat aku salute mereka.

Dr. pun kata kesian korang. but then he added,

"...from the way i see it, all of you girls are beautiful and smart. if you are not smart, you won't be in this course doing your master. memang malang la those guys. so bila kamu semua sudah tua dan masih belum kahwin, and people ask you kenapa, kamu beritahu mereka, 'ramai yang malang...'"


[thanks Dr., you're the best!]
[malanglah kalian yang tak dapat aku. ;p]
[Ya Allah, aku mohon Kau hadirkan walau sedikit cuma cahaya kebahagiaan untukku, biar sedikit, asal ia berpanjangan...]
