I'll try to not sound like a bitch when I say this. Oh well, it's gonna sound bitchy no matter how I twist it around. So, here goes. How far does the malay language help you in life? I gotta say, after looking back and pondering, I suddenly realised that studying the malay language is as redundant as, say, counting sheeps when you really want to go to sleep. I know that malay was one of my better subjects back in the heydays, but recent changes in life has made me think that this language definitely does not help you anywhere in life. I mean, what are the career oppurtunities that are available with a degree in malay? Becoming a teacher? Or just someone who migrates to Malaysia? Um, sorry to say this, but speaking in malay 24/7 is like slitting the wrist of a newborn child really very slowly. Heck, I don't even converse that much in Malay anymore since everyone in college is like talking in english 24/7. I may sound like a douchebag for saying this, but somehow, there's nothing to be proud about only if you have a degree in the malay language.
