china face

it has been confirmed! i'm going aussie on the 29th next wed! will be going brisbane first to meet my bro, and then head down to sydney with his friends on the 6th. they will be driving down. cool. :) looking forward to it. it's winter time there.

worked for mum today. took a cab home after that. the taxi driver said i looked like a china woman! he didnt mistaken me for one cos i obviously sound like a typical singaporean. not the first time someone has commented that i look china-girl-rish. blame it on my features..small eyes..fair complexion.. sigh.. i cant exactly take that as a compliment. whatever larr!

the cab driver started chatting with my mum about china women preying on old men and he himself has had many experiences falling target to them. said these zhong guo nu ren are money suckers, cheat old men of their money.. these old men arent dumb, but are merely lonely.. they are exchanging money in return for some comfort and company in life.. because at that age, their wives are mostly preoccupied with taking care of their grandchildren and children, and not too concerned about entertaining their husbands. so once they are able to withdraw their retirement money from their cpf accounts, they spent it on other women, who can fill some sort of emptiness in them. sad isnt it.. those times we see old ocuples walking hand in hand on the streets.. is that scene a one in a million rarity?
