LeeKuan's rambings

Something funny happened today.
During Puan Haz's class all of us were asked to look through newspapers to search for ah!"meaningful words you can use in your ielts speaking".
So, poor me who doesn't have the Star Special paper have to share the star special paper with Laura.
And so we were actually
1) having fun drawing scribblings on the newspaper, you know, drawing circles around an unfortunate model's eyes
2)indulging in various dreams of delicious food

And then when it came to food...
Laura declared " I Love Scallops"
And i'm like yaya! I love lala too!!!

Then
everything went quiet.

Me: (puzzled)
Mei Ing: (stare)
Laura: (stare)
Laura: Erm..lala?never heard of that..
Mei Ing: Yaya!!what's lala? some kind of manga?????


I have noticed the blur looks i got when i mentioned manga. Manga is in fact japanese comic and as for anime...fine, i am sure you guys know it already through Pn Haz's class today.


Yes, the moment mei ing said lala = unknown manga
i can't hold it anymore.
yes, i am a person who have had many years of practice in the art of halting the desire to laugh like hell, especially in class.

However,
today i failed.
both of them have no idea what i was laughing about.

The thing is
lala is some sort like a mini scallop.
Scallop - a shellfish that can be eaten with two flat round shell that fit together

Yes, my dear classmates'
it's a scallop, not some kind of manga

And i wouldn't even want to read a manga with the title "LALA"
So cheesy.

And there i was, laughing the hell out of me.

By the way, scallop is apparently only called 'lala' by certain people in peninsular Malaysia. When i asked my roommate, she has no problem identifying scallop as lala.

That means,
1. the word 'lala' may be only known to Teluk Intan people (since my roommate is from the same place as i do)
2. the word 'lala' may be only known to chinese of peninsular Malaysia

gee....i totally have no idea that sometimes what i know may not be understood by other people.

Ah and to think that FOOD unites humans.


EDIT: There's a manga magazine named lala that i would like to make an exception for. This magazine is particular as it has my favourites : namely Ouran High School Club and Vampire Knight..

EDIT again...

thanks Jasmine!

ok, lala is clam is it? okok!

lala=clam...

now i can tell mpeople that i like clam...err...and scallop....
