you ni selekeh, mana boleh beli designer handbag...

i like to blog-hop. because i like to read blogs. either my friends' blogs or some strangers' blogs.

yela. menambah knowledge itu perlu.
by doing so, masa tu jugaklah idea untuk menulis mencurah-curah.

like now. macam sekarang ni lah.
*kenapa kena buat sentence tu dalam dwibahasa?*

after reading this one blog, i terpanggil (uish!) untuk menceritakan mengenai my one experience ni. the other day, while tengah sangap rushing my job, i decided to feast my eyes by surfing the net and i pon pegi la visit this one particular designer bags' webby (nama brand terpaksa dirahsiakan atas sebab tak mau memalukan sesiapa)..

recently, they've launched their new collection and i had my eyes on this one bag lepas ternampak kat dalam magazine the day before. when i saw the bag, some more they have 3 different colours, and some more i like the design of the bag, lagi la teruja! suddenly rasa macam nak tau berapa la agaknya the price kat their boutique in malaysia sebab kat website tu memang murah, i think, tak silap la dalam 198 ringgit ha! mimpila lu!! USD ok! USD198!

so, i made an effort to call one of the boutique in pavilion kl. dan berikut adalah (lebih kurang la) conversation between yours truly and the sales assistant, (SA) a malay girl:

SA: guk moning, beeppp! pavilion.
r: hi morning. i'd like to know the price of your latest collection of beeppp! the beeppp! bag..
SA: aa? sori? which wan?
r: the beeppp! the beeppp! bag.. how much is the price ya?
SA: aaa.. oh. dat wan.. ermm.. wait. i have to check first. wait aaa..

after long pause, she's back on the phone:

SA: errmm. dat wan we don hef. but we hef other wan, de beeppp! bag.. it oso from de same beeppp! collection.. de wan yu wan, is not arrive yet. next month only got.
*err.. bukan aku nak tau pasal beg yang satu tu je ke?*

r: but yesterday i saw the beeppp! bag being featured in one of the local magazine, beeppp!..
SA: oh. issit? no. we don hef here. different butik different.
r: are you saying that you haven't receive the beeppp! bag yet or you won't be receiving any at all?
SA: next month maybe. (wtf??)

lepas cakap babai, i hung up the phone. dan sekadar mampu menggeleng kepala.

paham tak apa gua nak cerita kat sini?

ok. perihal beg yang gua nak tau berapa harganya tu satu, perihal SA yang english macam hazab ni pulak, MAJOR ok! tsk. tsk. bukan ke you're working in a fine, designer bag boutique yang sangat international tu? tapi kenapa english lebih teruk dari broken?? bukanla nak mengutuk ke apa because i know that my english pon masih berterabur jugak, tapi takkan la sampai grammar sume lintang pukang? let alone her pronounciations! menanah telinga!!

sebab i tak puas hati (sebab still tak dapat tau the price of the bag), i called the other boutique kat the gardens, midvalley pulak.

SA: guk moning, beeppp! the gardens.
*eh! cam sama? tapi kali ni suara jantan yang keluar..*

r: hi morning. i'd like to know the price of your latest collection of beeppp! the beeppp! bag..
*masih dialog yang sama tapi suara i tak jantan laa..*

SA: haa? err.. can holdon plis..
*dengar suara SA lelaki memanggil SA lain sebab dia tak tau nak jawab apa.. ~sigh..~*

SA: hi. how may i help you?
*perempuan, english tahap tingkatan 5*

and so, the conversation masih berkisar seperti di atas, tetapi kali ini, english si SA perempuan ni boleh maaf la, sebab ada basic in grammar. and the best part was, the bag that i wanted to know how much sangat tu, sebenarnya memang dah ada kat sume boutique2 beeppp!. memang dah sampai, cuma they only carry 1 colour instead of 3. if kat US, USD198, kat sini harga dia dalam RM1k ++ la jugak! fuh! memang gila!

so, camne? dahla english out, product knowledge sangat low!

pastu, bila orang macam gua masuk boutique dorang, saja la nak tengok-tengok (nak tengok reaction the SAs pon ye) *sila sedar diri, siapalah aku ini..* hmmphh.. jangan harap la dorang nak pandang if you don't have any designers' handbag, dangling at your arm or wrist ala ala mak datin bawak beg tu laa... these SAs ni dah la perasan cantik, sombong pulak tu. dah la sombong, buat tak layan pulak! seriously! they always have this "do-you-have-enough-money-to-buy-these-lavish-designers-bags?" look ok! duhh!

camne ni dol? nak buat muka camtu pon, at least kenalah pandai cakap english jugak. korang ni memang buat malu beeppp! je.

sebab tu la pssmi (pengajaran dan penbelajaran sains dan matematik dalam bahasa inggeris) tu penting if dikekalkan aje! biar budak-budak sume start to learn their english while they're still young. nanti bila besar, dorang nak keja kat kedai mamak sekalipon, they would still know how to converse properly in english if they bumped into a foreigner.

ha. kan dah marah sangat ni!
