i'm not pissed off just a bit disappointed!

Today all ptpl lecturers need to attend a rehearsal for 2morow's convocation.no need to go to the office so off me went straight to pwtc, yup we will have the convo there! took only 15mins from sg bloh to putra..and i was super early ok! the rehearsal started at 9.45 n i was there 8.45! arkk! waiting for miss sopia 4 an hour..isk2.. is not the thing that i really wanna preach in here.when everybody was at the dewan, waiting for their names to be called up then came 1 lecturer with swarthy complexion asking.."hey y'all why wearing baju kurung eh?" owh yes we wore bj kurung:) compared to others lecturers who looked so comfortable wearing jeans slack n all which we don give a damn.ok.. so we just smiled:) didnt have any perasaan tu answer dat question.n then came another lecturer asking the same question .."eyh nape pkai bj kurung?" then came our opismate asking the same question! but with different intonation but still the same question! "apsal pkai bj kurung?" and u noe what.. i counted myself and there were 7 people asking us the same question! majority with the same intonation.even one of the same came to us with a very quizzical expression! OMG! whats wrong with all these peeps? is it illegal for us to wear bj kurung? is it like oh-so forbidden to wear bj kurung on wednesday at pwtc? will we be caught by the guard? are we going to be hit by a car while crossing the street from the komuter station to the pwtc just by wearing baju kurung? what a superfluous question! haiyo! i have no prob with women wearing jeans n all even me like to wear jeans slack or whatever but these people asking bout us wearing bj kurung as if it is so unacceptable and ridiculous. it was like we were wearing mini skirt and a spaghetti stripe with glittering printed on it! For once i felt like questioning them back.."whats wrong with u guys??" instead i gave a nonchalant smile n trying not to be rude as long as i cud.1 more question i might just scream at them! err no la..i'm not dat stupid.they might think bj kurung is only for formal occasion, peg knduri kawen, mengaja, peg kenduri doa slamat and so not urban laa.. honestly even if they say we could wear jeans today, i will still wear my lovely bj kurung..proudly!

so 2morow i will wear a robe again this year (required for all lecturers).. with a baju kurung inside of course! it'll be boring but the best part is we can go home early!

have a gudday everyone n do wear bj kurung whenever u feel like wearing it!
