Compliment is an expression of praise, commendation or admiration. Well I have been receiving a lot of compliment lately on my english. I don't why but maybe it is due to my speaking. Like today when I saw Mr Sng at the canteen area lining up at the Malay stall to buy Mee Rebus

My friend and I: Hi Mr Sng!

Mr Sng: Hello how are you? Erm.. why are you standing behind me?

Me: Erm... because you are in front of me?

He laughed. Mr Sng: Hmm.. ok. Your english have improved remarkably.

Me: hehe thanks because I speak only elegantly. you know.

We all laughed. It was so funny. Then I saw that there was no more Mee Rebus.

Me: Mr Sng how could you? You took the last one. I wanted to eat.

Mr Sng: The aunty give me the last one because you know why? I am handsome.

I was like lol. Very funny. It is so funny. The weird thing is he put sambal in his Mee Rebus. I thought we should put it for nuggets only.

Then afterwards I said, " Enjoy your food"

Mr Sng: Ok thanks you too.

Well I also received compliment from Mr Ranjit on my english. We were at our usual study place when he approached us.

Mr Ranjit: Hmm. Very hardworking students. Study hard ok.

Me: Of course we will. We have to because I want to be a Veterinarian.

Mr Ranjit: Erm... Are you Malay??

Me: Ya why??

Mr Ranjit: No it is just that the way you speak English is very different from the rest that I have known.

Me: huh really? In what way?

Mr Ranjit: You speak English very well. Standard English. very good.

Me: Erm thanks.

Afterwards we chatted for about two hours and he got to know us quite well.

I guess. I seriously like the teachers here. They are great and so easy to talk to. And also compliments from my teachers really motivate me to study hard because I know that I study not only for myself but also for my teachers as I want them to be proud of me. And by the way, the way I speak English is the way it is. I guess I am used to speaking English with a little accent but not a heavy one because due to too many hollywood shows. Haha.
