did something reallly amazing for the first time in my life. i read finish a chinese novel. its the type where the words are very chim and fucking packed together, where u need to read from top to bottom, right to left that kind. yes, its that type. and its a total of 300 pages.

so of course to be able to read this type of books, you have to be intellectually equipped with fucking-the-not-bad chinese. thanks to my 18 years of reading porno filled chinese comics interesting biologically educated chinese related stories, my chinese standard was at least there la. there as in not too bad, not too the lousy.

oh by the way did i told you i really very the fucking hate chinese who cant speak chinese? its like being a fucking mother hen and u cant fucking lay a single fucking egg. then have you ever fucking wonder why you are fucking born as a hen???

learn to lay some fucking eggs please~!

that is, in kind words, if you are a yellow skin human reading my blog now, and realise the blog is actually more or less describing you, start picking up a Pri 1 Chinese Story Book and try to start learning now. anyway back to main topic. so wat story actually interest me so much as to for the first time in my life, let me pick it up and read?

the story chinese name is called Wo Bei Pa Pa Mai Le (I got sold by my father)

english name is A Promise to Nadia.

bcoz the story was translated form english, all the names were directly translated too. but lucky i am intellectually equipped with fucking-the-not-bad chinese, so it did not took me long to realise that names like MO HA MO TE is actually Mohammed or SHU SHA NA is actually Susanna. fucking the not bad right my chinese?

anyway the story is about in 1980s, this girl Zana, then 15 years old, together with her 14 years old sister, Nadia, got sold to Yemen (A republic on the southwestern shores of the Arabian Peninsula on the Indian Ocean) by her Arabian father. her mother was English. they were sold there as "wives" to their unknown husbands. the life they lead there was terrible. it shows how unfair the women were treated there. when i read the story, i really realise how dominating the guys there are. anyway , Zana finally managed to escape in 1990s. but she had to leave behind her son and sister Nadia due to some political issues. until now 2005, she is still forever fighting for the right for her sister to come home, to Britain where their home is.

i did a web search just now and realise how popular her story was. and it so called spark my interest to read up more. can check out this link A Promise to Nadia. hmm, now i realise how come some cultures require the women to cover themselves from head to toe, even their face. its bcoz the husbands doesnt like the women to be seen by other men. poor thing. highly recommend this book to people who like touching stories.

but of course choose the english version ones if you are not intellectually equipped with fucking-the-not-bad chinese.

hope the sister and her son can come back soon.
