This afternoon my sister,Ann Sze wearing a nice dress and seems like she's going out with her boyfriend.I asked who is she going out with,then she stared at me with her eyes widen and answered,''I'm going out with ''someone'' My mother asked her "Where are you going?What time are you coming back?'' My sister answerd"I'm going out with my friend,I'll be back late today". After few seconds,her friend reach my father's office and before she go she said"Bye daddy,mummy,jie jie''.

My mother asked me"what your sister mean by coming back late and what time do she mean by late?10pm?12am?1am?Her attitude has become worse!''I just answer''I have no idea what time she mean by late but you can call her later and ask her''.Well,my sister answerd in a way that is over genarality and she didn't answer the important point that my mother wants to know.

She told my mother she's going out with friends and she'll come back late today but she didn't specific which friend and what time does she mean by late.''A good answer will never let a listener to ask another question.'' So,we have to avoid answering in over generality way.

HuH...??

This afternoon,my father's indian worker-Raja,show me a message from his phone.He wants me to explain about the message because he don't understand what the message is all about.He told me when he open that message,his first reaction was "huh?What the hell is this?''It's from one of his chinese friend.

Raja's friend send this message to him"wt tm izzit d ar?y still haven reach yet ar?wait u damm long liao" Well,after I finish reading his message I laugh loudly because this is how chinese people speaks broken english and write short message to people.Raja don't get it because he is an indian and indian people don't speak or write english like this.Raja's chinese friend uses vagueness,and this is why Raja don't understand what's the message all about.I told him that actually what his friend is trying to say is"what's the time now?why Raja haven't reach yet?He has been waiting for Raja for quite a long moment.

After I explain it to Raja,his face turn quite different and he said''what the hell is wrong with all this people?why are they sending shortcut word that people don't understand!He is such a moron!''Raja quite mad with his friend for sending those message.And I know that I can't send this kind of short message to him in the future,because it causes vagueness and Raja won't understand what I'm trying to tell him.
