Grateful I am to have a mother like Umi. She gave me unlimited oppurtunities and had supported my passions throughout my growing years with her. Because of her support, my passion have space to develop; some includes my inclination in architecture, writing, poem recitation and arts. I am. Truly Grateful.
I have no intention of generalizing people through their race. What follows after this is strictly derived from myself. My opinion. Nothing to do with sweet onion and raw sushi.
Malay parents are selfish.
Something triggered me when I was at Sunway Pyramid watching serious ice skaters doing axles and whatever else that follows. Most of them are chinese and there was only one malay girl. Their parents who picked them up after their practice were very odinary looking: they brought mineral water bottles, bakul bekal and tupperware filled with crackers whereas the malay girl I was particularly occupied with sat along a posh mid-age lady who I swear had had her face injected with.. ehem.. botox. Oh, botox worshipers... forgive me.. I have a slight complication in typing every time I mention that word. BOTOX.. jitters...
And all is clear: Why is it that interest like playing the piano, acting, dancing, skating (for this matter) etc is limited to higher earning malays' children when chinese parents of average income manage to encourage these interests to theirs?
Hmmph~~
Roll camera, ACTION!

I love domesticated cats but I'm allergic to them as well. Can you imagine trying to pet your fav cat and sneezing uncontrollably at the same time?
About the lack of Malays involved in skating-very true. The last time I went skating with my siblings, we were surrounded by multitudes of Chinese all whooshing past us. I was wondering about that.

its a not a proper statement to begin with. Its an opninion. Isn't everybody entitled to their own opinion?
why did i post twice?
anyway, sorry. should have read properly. i should higlight everytime to start commenting.
sorry again.
but what do u think about their children yang lebih minat benda2 lain yg tak berfaedah?
kalo parents paksa, nanti anak2 rebel. as a result, semua perkara dibuat separuh jalan, sebab anak give up tgh jalan. tak ke membazir?
pilihan ibubapa? pilihan anak2?
mana penting?
