Mixed

"are you mixed? you don't look like a typical Malay."



The bank exec asked me. And that didn't happen once. Once I was chatting with an aunt on a Rapid Bus and she asked the very same question. Once a classmate thought I am a Chindian.


in fact, it happens all the time. funny. what, do I really not look like Malay? some say I don't sound like one either.


small eyes. big nose, and a tanned skin. =)


yes, I am mixed. But that doesn't make me less Malay than any of you out there. It makes me more Malaysian, in fact.
