My names Tarmizi and Im a teacher at a government school. I live and work in Marang and I was also born
here. I grew up in Marang and I went to Penang to further my study. Ive live in Marang for about 20 years now. I
prefer living in Marang because there are more things to do here and its a very happening town plus my parent
is here too. At university I studied TESOL and gained lot of experiences and met with new friends. During my
study at university I met with my girlfriend (now my wife) and we were from the same school. We got married
after spending one year of working and we are happy now. When I have a free time I will go outside with my
friends and spend the evening together watching football match. I really love football. Actually , I was into
football when I was I n university. My roommate during study time was a football maniac. He always invited me
to watch football with him whenever got game on TV. Starting from that, I gained the interest in watching football
and become one of the unofficial football critiques. I really hope one day I can go to Old Trafford and watch
Manchester United beaten by Manchester City.
