The word "Macha"

If you are from Malaysia or a place that is like Malaysia which have hawker stalls or mamak stall,
You'd probably know the word "macha".
You would probably imagine this when you hear the word "macha"

"TEH TARIK SATU!!!"

My friend made a new discovery...and found out that the word "macha" also means green tea if you go to the restaurant called "Pasta Zanmai". (I heard the curry there very nice XD)
This is what the other "Macha" looks like in:

No this is not the guy you saw earlier turned to dust...

Then my friend posted a link and have the same green tea powder but it's spelled "matcha".
Another friend said it's actually "Ocha" so goes the conversation like this:

Natasha: It's called OCHA! OCHA I SAY, OCHA!
Ivan C : DEI (dei is an indian word) VICTOR (The guy who made the discovery)!! You die now!!
Natasha: OCHA OCHA OCHA OCHA OCHA!
William (me): Macha! Macha satu please! (first macha is referring to person,second macha is tea)
Ivan S : Ocha? weird (I cut out the first sentence and left the second)
Ivan C : Oh u change Ocha to Macha larh! Dei! Wait larh you!
Natasha: It is called ocha. You have to say, "One cold ocha please"
William:Oh...So Victor is trying to say "one cold macha please" and you're trying to say "one cold ocha please"...i go with one cold macha XD
Natasha: Yea! duh, I always say ocha and they understand
William: Oh but when you go Pasta Zanmai in Victor's case, he always say "macha" and they understand XP
Ivan C : Dei William, you better order a coffin...You're so dead!!!
William: Noooooooo...Order for me can arh?
Victor : Oi apa ni? I know what I see larh dei. lol. http://www.o-cha.com/matcha.htm

And so, the word macha has 2 meanings....one is the person at the mamak taking orders for you (very nice people) and two...organic green tea powder...
I ended up like this after the conversation:
But then later, They Tapao me instead...To the undertaker..
"I asked for mixed rice but they tapao this boy pulak..."
They put a coffin within a coffin and check inside... Wah..Makes you wish you want to die now and steal my coffin

"Wah...canggih punya coffin...got computer some more! Thanks Ivan!"

That's how I still can post my blog thanks to this coffin Ivan C gave me =D
