Gosh, these past few days have been rather hectic for me at the office. I couldn’t even attend the system course scheduled on Monday and Tuesday, as I had a dateline to meet. Anyway, with some time management, I managed to complete a few things yesterday. So today, I decided to sit in for the course in Bangi. Hoping to learn and ask the French trainer on certain system issues.
For a change, it was definitely relaxing to listen to some heavy French accent this morning. Finally something to enjoy! I don’t get this every day, you know. Normal mornings would usually involve discussions with my colleagues and boss.

However, was surprised to see the French trainer, wearing the same suit, tie and shirt (same colour??!) he wore on last Friday. Oh well, I guess he might be either one of those guys who prefers to travel light or own many same coloured shirts. Hmmm, very practical eh.
Today, he was more easy going and funny as compared to the last time I saw him. I blame it on to the hot weather and the terrible Malaysian way of talking. We had some problems communicating before, what do you expect, Malaysians just love to speak/talk with the word “la” at the end of every word... It really sounds awful.
It was so lovely to see him blending in well to the Malaysian culture, he even tried the “asam boi” all of us were having to prevent us from falling asleep. His reaction when eating the “asam boi” was unbearable. Haha! I am sure, all of us got used to his way of saying keteria (for criteria), detemina (for determine) and than-a (for than), and he understands our typical accent wit hthe word “la” everywhere…He must be wondering why does everything has to end with the word “la”. I was laughing when he said , ok people, time for asam when it was actually time for a break.
Sigh! There goes my last training session with the interesting French trainer..Olala! Hopefully, there will be more to come.
