I really hate to admit that probably my English deteriorates. That’s
why now i write this post in English against my intention to make this
blog purely in bahasa Indonesia.
Today i had series of meetings that require me to talk actively but
somehow I was stucked speechless.
It’s not that my English is perfect nor bad to start with. I had
talked in a few international seminars before so I guess it’s not that
bad, is it?
Anyway, I guess I can trace back on why this probably happens. First
of all, maybe because of this blog that push me to think in Bahasa
again.
Second maybe I talked in Bahasa much more often nowadays after I get
married. Not to blame my wife that she speaks Bahasa but it’s also
because my own wish to speak my mother tongue to my family. I don’t
want my family to forget where they belong to. I observed that some
indonesian family totally speak in English that they can’t speak
Bahasa anymore. I don’t want that to happen to my own family.
My bigger problem to keep my English is the fact that in the next
couple of weeks I’m relocating to Europe. And I got to learn a new
language to survive.
Oh life. So I guess i should start another blog in English, shouldn’t I?
