at the dentist's office in UM Dentistry Fac...Tina and i waited to see the dentist. and there was an h pek nearby who stared at us in an unfriendly way...
then he went up to tina and asked:
Is your friend a boy or a girl?
Tina replied that i was a girl (yeah i still am, thanks for noticing!) ...
and the ah pek (who we later found out to be an ah ee, whoops! we saw the skirt s/he was wearing) asked:
How heavy does your friend weigh? 200 pounds?
(i will not entertain any requests for my weight. that's my business, you can put this in your pipe and smoke it)
tina looked embarrassed and said nothing. notice how s/he did not address the questions to me. yeah, so the ah ee/pek had some shame after all. we made ourselves scarce. it was quite freaky.
then that man in marisini who asked me if um's law library was the biggest in malaysia.
i was in the middle of an interesting discussion on St Paul's letter to the Phillipians and Islam with harn...so i looked goggle eyed at him...
and then said yes, i think so.
he looked suspiciously at me, and said...are you sure? are you only saying that because you are a um student?
(uh, yeah, last time, i checked, i wasn't going around proclaiming um law library's exalted status as largest law library. or my own exalted status as um student)
i looked back at him and spun him a rigmarole about OPAC class where they told us that.
waited for him to leave, and went back to dinner. :P
are you a Malay?
most recently asked this at the PWTC Law Conference. didn't help that i was wearing Pn Izura's name tag instead. and yes, the yellow skin, the slit eyes. the broad nose. any Malay features??? not to mention the distinctly Chinese slang i have.
are you from KL/Johor/ Penang/ Sabah/ Sarawak?
in short, anywhere except my home state of Perak, let alone Ipoh.
have you ever considered becoming a mistress?
short answer to this : no. This is what a (supposedly) serious discussion about future career options can degenerate into.
are you carrying anything dangerous?
(this one while i was at the airport check-in at Heathrow. like im going to tell you if i m a terrorist with a neutron bomb in my bag. muhahahaha, then again, i just might)
are you on a protein diet?
for those who have forgotten basic science, bread = carbohydrates. and apples are NOT protein. and for the ultra curious: no, i m not on the pantai selatan (south beach), atkins, weight watchers, any slimming centre programme. i eat what i want, when i need to. 'nough said.
why you eat this? (referring to brown bread and apples) Apples are not food.
short answer to this: apples ARE food. nyeh. no matter what you may think...
you are the kind of person who obeys speed limits right to the last decimal point. you push where doors say push and pull where they say pull...you're sick...
not a question, but amusing, and no, i don't let my life be run by LEDs...i jaywalk occasionally.
more coming your way, if you're not sick of it already. the hour is late. says a lot, doesn't it. :P
leave you with a last one.
the priests will be leaving for a retreat from 16-18 november at Penang. i hope nobody dies during that time as it will be difficult to settle funeral arrangements.
if i knew when i was going to die, i wouldn't choose that day in the first place. can we actually choose when we want to die? novel idea to me.
