TV ppl: boleh cakap melayu kan? (you can speak in Malay right?)

...........................
tajuk entry yang aku jadikan soalan itu juga di tanya oleh salah seorang yang aku pernah buang dari rxt. dia tanya aku soalan di atas just because aku boleh cakap a lil' tiny bit of mandarin.
aku jawab: malay.
hmmm...
hmmm...
when i am in my office or when i go to meet my client or talking in the phone with them, i speak manglish.
at home, with my parents & brothers or relative, i speak proper English and Bahasa Melayu.
yes, my Bahasa Melayu will be mixed with some dialect.
but i cant bring myself to speak proper English & Bahasa Melayu at office.
and i cant bring myself to speak manglish at home.
i myself dont know why.
do you understand what i am trying to tell you?
