Short Note : Okay, this post might be a little racist, so please don’t read if you’re offended by such matters
I’m now living in my hostel, to sum it up, there are only 4 Chinese living in my block and the rest are Malays. Well, sometime i couldn’t help but to wonder on the type of mentality that they possess. There are lots of such incidents that made me wonder if they are actually at their age they claimed….Will post pictures to prove the incidents later when i have the time.
Scenario One:
Usually I will try to avoid doing the laundry on rainy or cloudy days. Nevertheless, one could never predict the weather correctly and sometimes it do rains despite the forecast of the weather station. Now, normal humans would actually rush out to collect the laundry whenever it rains, BUT guess what did these Malays do? Yup, they leave it under the rain and let it soak till the sun comes out again. Gosh, what’s the point of washing it then? Might as well they just hang it and let the rain wash it, or maybe sprinkle some soap / washing detergent on it while they’re doing it. Nope, they’re not away from the hostel, they perfectly know it and yet they are fine with it. Personally, the cloths stinks real bad when i passed by it. How the heck can they put it on their body??? Don’t they know anything on personal hygiene? Hello? These are all undergraduates and so called “future leaders” and this is the attitude?
Scenario Two:
I was about to shower when i saw this. There is this Malay guy who was brushing his teeth at the basin area. You see, our toilet was illuminated by only 6 fluorescent light and there’s one installed on top of the mirrors above the basin. I’ll give a rough estimate of 5metres for the height of the light from the ground. What that Malay did when i went in truly surprised me, he climbed up to the basin and then twist the fluorescent tube slightly to switch it off. I was like stunned there for a few seconds. He saw me and smiled at me, saying the toilet is too bright for him to brush his teeth… WTF!! You’re afraid of light? Photo phobia? Go live in a cave where there’s no sunlight for Christ sake!! There’s only 6 freaking lights and yet it’s too bright? Heck, they even left the chair there!!
Scenario Three:
For me, when i bath, i will usually walk INTO the shower area and then shower of course. But this is what i saw again… In fact two of them at the same time. This two Malay guy stood IN FRONT of the basin and start soaping themselves and even shampoo-ing their hair. Yup, they practically bath there. They wash their hair, body and even legs at the basin!!! What is this?? The shower room is just 2 steps back from the basin area and yet are they too lazy to go in? Nope, they are not washing themselves for the prayers session nor they are in a hurry to lectures.
Scenario Four:
Back to the laundry issue, how often do i wash my cloths? Once in 4-5 days, I just store all my dirty cloths in the laundry bag before washing it, it’s much cheaper that way as to operate the washing machine cost RM3.00 each time. But what about the Malays next door? I would bet it’s NEVER or maybe once a month. You might ask how is it possible? Well yes it could happen in my hostel, Cahaya Gemilang. Although all of us are given a wardrobe in our room (the wardrobe is always in a bad condition, it’s made of wood and the planks are rotting due to the age of it), but the Malays next door chooses to hang their cloths conveniently at the TV area. This is a real observation : This Malay guy came out from his room wearing his undies and dressed up OUTSIDE of his room and that happen to be the TV area. To make things worse, another fella which i assumed that he just finished his lecture conveniently hang his jacket at the same place when he entered the hostel. What is this nonsense?? And that was at the second week of the semester and to date, the jacket and t-shirt are still there (this is already the 11th week)…. I have no words to describe their attitude…
