Multi Lingual State

I've been writing about multi lingual in my Facebook Notes recently. This fenomenon really intrugue me cos I notice here people can converse using 3 or even 4 languanges simultanously. They can speak in English, Hindi, Assamese, Bengali!!..Sometimes I see 2 people are talking di different languages and still they can understand each other. I mean, I came from a country (I'm Indonesian, now settle in India) which has one National languange. So, I guess, all my life ~ without I realize~ I was "trained" to speak and think in single languange!. While I notice, my Indian husband can swiftly speak in those languages without any difficulties...:D
My sons study in prep school which basically English medium. But the children came from different cultural background who speak different languanges. So, in the school, the teacher use those 4 languanges (english, hindi, assamese and bengali) to make them understand. That way the other children -indirectly- learn other languanges besides their mother tounge and english.
Anyway, yesterday I met my DH client who own a tabloid. The tabloid is written in English, Assamese and Hindi. He told me that I must read it. I said okay, but of course I won't understand the hindi & assamese scripts...:D

Shop till you drop at Mela



Okay, so I'm a shopoholic. During my last week's bazaar (exhibition or we call it "mela" here), I collected few stuff from other seller. I think I shop more than I sell...LOL...
Never can resist the urge to buy those lovely stuff made by the weavers...and those pretty fabrics or those gorgeous mekhla chadar.
One lady next to my stall has the most beautiful design of block print mekhla (they are done in silk or cotton). Too bad I don't wear mekhla my self..:(

Anyway, here few stuff I picked up...God help me, next week I will have a nother week of "mela", I hope I will not end up shopping again..
