		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m such a creative person&#8230;  
This morning I created a new phrase.
It&#8217;s called &#8220;buddy toh&#8220;. The opposite for &#8220;pak toh&#8220;. T_T

So in YapThomas&#8217; language, buddy toh means going out with the buddies. I.E The Boys. Say, you have a night out with a group of boys then you can use it. What about girls?]]></description>

<p>This morning I created a new phrase.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s called &#8220;<em>buddy toh</em>&#8220;. The opposite for &#8220;<em>pak toh</em>&#8220;. T_T</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2498/4003021419_a54ab4235f_o.jpg" alt="" width="221" height="253" /></p>
<p>So in YapThomas&#8217; language, <em>buddy toh</em> means going out with the buddies. I.E The Boys. Say, you have a night out with a group of boys then you can use it. What about girls? I don&#8217;t know. Maybe you can use &#8220;<em>girly toh</em>&#8220;?</p>
<p>Anyways&#8230; you can use this <em>lingua</em> if you want. It&#8217;s Free For All. No trademark or whatsoever. Just that,when people ask where you get this phrase from, just mention &#8220;YapThomas Dot Com&#8221;. Haha <img src='http://www.yapthomas.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Oh not to forget, I&#8217;ve also created another new phrase which is, &#8220;<em>going alfresco</em>&#8221; during the night out with The Boys.</p>
<p>Erm&#8230; I shall not elaborate more on the meaning of &#8220;<em>going alfresco</em>&#8220;. Ask me when you see me <img src='http://www.yapthomas.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Maybe you can get some hint from <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/alfresco" target="_blank">Dictionary.Com</a> hehehe</p>
<p>If I continue creating more and more phrases with subjective meaning, I can write a book already! Good idea.. hmmm&#8230;</p>

<p>I need to buck it up now or else it will go down the train, FOREVER!! Nooooo&#8230;</p>
<p>This evening while having my break from work, I was talking to JuniorCindy and the conversation goes on as follow:</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">YapThomas: how are you?</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Cindy: ca va bienn (I&#8217;m fine)<br />

<strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">YapThomas: ca va bienn aussi (I&#8217;m fine too)<br />
YapThomas: i miss speaking in french! <img src='http://www.yapthomas.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></strong><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong> Cindy: haha alors, parle a moi en francais! (haha come, speak to me in French)</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong> YapThomas: je parle un peu francais (I speak little bit of French)</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong> Cindy: c&#8217;est assez! (That&#8217;s it)</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong> YapThomas: oh no!! hahah</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Cindy: je ne suis pas bien en francais aussi (I&#8217;m not too good in French too)<br />
Cindy: comme toi <img src='http://www.yapthomas.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>YapThomas: j&#8217;ai oublier francais&#8230; (I forger French)<br />

I got a call earlier this week and it was from a hotel inviting me for an inspection and lunch reception. I seriously couldn&#8217;t understand this girl&#8217;s language and it was kinda difficult to catch what she was saying.
This was how the conversation went&#8230;
Me: &#8220;Hello&#8221;
 Caller:]]></description>
