malay name = speak malay?

im just amused at what had happened over the phone with a Singtel customer service officer. i m just so used to converse in english with anyone over the phone especially when it comes to service provider/govt organisation. SO, a malay chap took my call and i just requested for some stuff to be terminated and to get it over and done with. u know when they would like to have our identification details LIKE *NAME*. and i went *cheechongfun* and voila, he turned the conversation into malay! as though my name is like a PASSWORD granting access to language-SWITCH. HAHA. hellooo. whats happening, i was thinking. SO, me being me continued in english(ok, i know im EVIL) and i think, for a split nanosecond, he felt so embarrassed that i could hear it in his voice and he SWITCHED it back to the former. ok i knw, im being mean right! SO, for the later part, i tried my BEST to "rojak" my conversation with him, just to make up for his embarrassment. see, im good afterall buahaha. OH. btw, his 'R' is "karat" and i find it cute. hehe. it has been a very long time that i have not heard someone's "karatness".

btw, im just so sick of listening to my repetitive fav songs that i ended up listening to this one song that have been with me like since my NYP-days THAT now only i have decided to search for its lyrics and can i conclude that it sounded like so gigolo ?? ugh. haha.

Monte Carlo by Phyne Ballerz
=========================

Di dalam suara keramaian
Terserlah kau dan ku berdua
Berlatar panorama lautan dan bahtera
Ku bonekanya

Apa kau mahu kuturuti mu tanpa bersoal tanya
Kerana kaulah tuannya
Aku sebagai hamba
Itu hakikatnya

Hembusan bayu di Monte Carlo
Berharmoni mengiringi cello
Daku memberikan dikau kalor
Kau beli cinta... kuakur

Bawah purnama di Monte Carlo
Berdua berdansa rentak tango
Kita hidup ala mewah dan masyur
Kau belai jiwa... kuakur

Aku dapat merasa hadirin di fiesta
Menjeling sinis kita
Tapi apa kurasa tak penting tak bermaksa
Asal kau bahagia

Sejak dari dulu kutahu syarat dan hak dirimu
Dengan tertunai sewa
Kehidupan kuserah untuk kau mengarah

Kau beli jiwa... kuberi cinta
Sara hidupku... daku milikmu

NEVERTHELESS, i like its rythm and arrangement. OH. btw, the last i heard about Phyne Ballerz is that now 2 of its members have re-brand themselves as "Billy Zulkarnain"(yes, one is Billy, the other Zulkarnain) and their first HIT together was "Hati Terluka" and i think its not bad afterall. they definitely can sing. trust me.
