My first copy writing classs

Yesterday I attended my first copywriting class. Honestly I was hesitant & filled with anxiety. So far I have been dealing with amatuers. What if this professional found my style too atrocious to even begin to comment? What if? What if?

But as I waited for him to get there (he was late by 20mins) i got to know some of my classmates (many of which were very late as well).

All 3 other guys made that little contraption in my head go PING PING PING! Yeap gaydar works.

One was really cute in a Duff kinda way only he had the funniest goatee. It was like he tought he was too cute. So no matter how badly he groomed his facial hair, he would look good, ~WRONG! A quick shave and he would be so desirable. The other one was seemed like the typical geek gay guy. Eager to absorb. Eager to learn. Eager to bottom. Thinning hair line but if it was a dark room, I'd do him. The third was a slight chub. Dark skinned and typical features. He was typically typical. It was the way that he spoke that gave him that PLU-edge.

But HEY! who am I to judge? These people, just like me came to learn & learn we did. I'm sure they have more layers than just being a Duff look alike (as much a compliment as that is, I'm sure he rather be his own person).

For one of the assignments, we had to write an introduction about ourselves. This is mine~

I'm truly best described as one of Malaysia's best dishes, - Rojak. Just like this seemingly simple dish, what you see isn't what you get. Although you may thing you can see my true being underneath the thich layer of prawn paste, I'm certainly more complex. I'm serious yet jovial. I'm smart yet silly. I'm cool yet chaotic. Sometimes I enjoy understanding what makes people think, while other times I couldn't be bothered to give anyone a second glance.

The key to understanding who I am, is by understanding where I come from, where I am now & where I will be. Just like how the many ingredients in rojak were produce in Malaysia's rural towns so was I. I grew up in (insert name of my town), Johor; a town of diverse landscapes & people, held togather as a community by a common goal; - money. Equipped with my small-town upbringing I came to K.L., where I obtained my BSc in Biotechnology. Once I graduated, I wasn't sure what I wanted to apply myself at. Just like rojak, I have many different tastes. Each different yet the same.

Where will I be? Just like rojak I could recieve rave reviews or end up in the bin.

(bloggers note: Rojak is a fruit salad dish doused in thick smelly brown prawn paste & K.L. is Kuala Lumpur)

It's as if you've known me better than I ever knew myself

I love how you can tell

All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
