Argh!

I hate Cantonese! I hate everything about it! The intonations, the stupid way they say 'see thaw beh lee' instead of 'cao mei' for strawberries, the aggressive tones to the entire dialect and every single freakin thing about it!

I come into the office and hear my colleagues yakking away in Cantonese and obviously I don't understand most of it. And during lunch, they will talk amongst themselves and I won't be able to join in the conversation. Sometimes some of them will translate for me and let me know what they are talking about but as the main discussion is in Cantonese, I can hardly join in though I try sometimes but getting them to switch to English is not always easy.

I HATE CANTONESE! Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Cantonese people, I just hate the dialect - I just wish they can speak Mandarin or English or something else.

I think it's safe to say I will probably never feel comfortable enough in HK to want to make this my home.

I want to go home to 'lah's, 'leh's, 'lor's, 'hor's and 'can or not?'s.
