WHO SAID ENGLISH WAS EASY?

We'll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes,
But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes.
One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice,
Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.

If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen?
If I speak of my foot and show you my feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth?

Then one may be that, and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine: she, shis and shim!

Let's face it - English is a crazy language.
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger;
Neither apple nor pine in pineapple.
English muffins weren't invented in England .
We take English for granted, but if we explore its paradoxes,
We find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square,
And a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing,
Grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?
Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend.
If you have a bunch of odds and ends and
Get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?

If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?
Sometimes I think all the folks who grew up speaking English
Should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane.

In what other language do people recite at a play and play at a
Recital?

We ship by truck but send cargo by ship.
We have noses that run and feet that smell.
We park in a driveway and drive in a parkway.
And how can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same,
While a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language
In which your house can burn up as it burns down,
In which you fill in a form by filling it out, and in which an alarm
goes off by going on.

And in closing, if Father is Pop, how come Mother's not Mop?

PS: enjoy!!! hope all of you like it :)

LOVE STORY 2

 

Once upon a time, there is a village called Kampung Jejaka Macho in Borneo Island. The village is very peaceful and beautiful. The landscape is breathtaking with the river flowing smooth, birds singing happily, fresh air and children playing all around.

In that peaceful and harmony village, there are five good looking young men. There are all good friends. They are Mat Det, Mat Sabu, Meon, Sarip Dol and Man Boya. They are well-known as hardworking, humble, honest and kind. They are also helpful and always join community service in the village.

One day, they hung out together at Jejaka Macho International Airport (JMIA). While hanging around, they suddenly saw a very beautiful, gorgeous and hot girl. The girl was perfect in their eyes as she wore a pink ‘kebaya Nyonya’ with her shining long hair and her smile was amazingly nice. She embarked from Airbus A320-400.

Sarip Dol have asked all their friends to take a challenge to tackle that girl with fighting with each other and only the best man win. All of them accepted the challenge and started to plant some strategies to win over the girl.

First, Mat Det made a step to approach that girl. He waited the girl at the arrival terminal lift. When the girl arrived at the lift, Mat Det helped the girl to push the lift button. The girl thanked him with a nice smile.

After that, Mat Sabu got his turn to tackle the beautiful girl. While she stepping out of the lift, she accidently dropped her passport. Mat Sabu took it and chased after her to hand it to her. The girl was very pleased. She thanked him and gave a nice smile.

Next, the girl went to a shop to buy a drink. When she wanted to pay, she realized that she doesn’t have cash in Borneo island currency since she was from overseas. Meon took that advantage and offered to pay for the drink. She thanked Meon and gave him a nice smile.

After she finished her drinks, she went to the luggage department to take her luggage. She had three very big and heavy luggage and she had trouble to set all her luggage to the trolley. Man Boya, the toughest guy among them, approached that pretty girl and offered her a help. She with manner, accepted the offer from Man Boya to get her luggage from the conveyer to the trolley. The girl thanked him and gave him a nice smile.

All of Sarip Dol’s friends failed to tackle that beautiful lady. So Sarip quite confident to move on to the next step which is trying to approach that lady. All of sudden the beautiful lady Na O Mei come to Sarip Dol and ask for his help to carry her luggage Sarip Dol was so happy until he cannot stop smiling and jumping like a small kid. Sarip thought that he’s the special one and he’s choose among all of his friends. Sarip Dol with his big and nice smile keeps pushing the trolley along side with the girl to go out from the airport.

Taxi to arrive and pick Na O Mei they had a drink at the Ali Baba While Coffee. Then, Sarip Dol saw a black car which is familiar. What a schocked incident! Sarip Dol’father was in the black car. His father went out from the car and heading forwards Sarip Dol and Na O Mei. Suddenly, his father introduce to Sarip Dol that Na O Mei is his new wife which is Sarip Dol stepmother. 

Sarip Dol felt very angry with his father because without his mother permission, his fathers get married. Furthermore they marry got married at Thailand. Sarip Dol decided to tell his mother has been cheated.

He rushed home and told his mother what happened she was farious, sad and disappointed with his father after knowing about this. His mother cried and waited for his father but his father did not return that day. Her mother waited patiently foer the return.

A week after, his father returned home and a great war took place between his mother and his father. His father coax her mother not to act on feelings. This is a mate between na o mei with her.Finally her mother accepted with surrender of his polygamy.

Moral of the story is before making any decision we need to think wisely. Most important is do not get married in Thailand. It is illegal.
