as i now commute to the gym via LRT, i get to meet people from all walks of life. usually i don't bother about their conversation, until today when i heard two teenagers talking. judging from their conversation, i would say the girls are typical uptown wangsa maju kids who have just left school. i couldn't help overhearing (i wasn't eavesdropping, they talked loud enough for the entire coach to hear) the conversation, and was shocked when the one of the girls casually talked about going to a club which she proclaimed the entry fee as "murah gile", and that they serve a bucket of beer.
okay so i'm shocked. i know that i shouldn't be, but the fact that they can be so casual and i can even say that the statement is more of a brag than anything else.
it's not the teacher in me, it's about being a mature person who has seen much and won't like the youngsters to suffer.
in one of the daily hadith sent by Anne, the writer has said that the current time is about the era of modesty seen as a lack of confidence and vulgarity is seen as an act of boldness. the girl's statement attests to the truth of the statement.
i'm very upset with all this.
isn't there something to cheer me up today?

Salam Ukwah Cik Nora,
I am Ina's Kak Arah. I enjoyed reading yr blog & Maz (Ina)so much. I am not good in blogging.
Yep, you'll be surprised, girls are more daring than boys now, & very mischevious. Let's doa that our anak cucu, keturunan tak jadi macam tu. Who to blame? Parents too play very important role.
Lastly, take care & bee happee...
Hello Nora, I was at Ina's place noticed your callsign, and having 'busybody' in my resume, I datang see your blog.
Nice blog you have.
Re the LRT chat you heard, we here have 127 Nationalities, and sit in a bus or subway, you'll be hearing from Mandarin to Swahili to Farsi to Russian etc.
Re the conversation you heard, I guess when young we tend to be Indiana Jones, in this case 'Jane', ha ha.
Like the song goes, 'girls just want to have fun'.
You keep well and have a nice day. Lee.
ps, glad to know you're a teacher.
