Back to being a Malaysian..

It’s been pouring water from sky for the past week. Once, Mother nature was kind and blessed us with ice instead of plain water. Yeah, she forgot that gravity existed and didn’t know that hale falling from sky can be quite painful.

Ok, enough bout that….

And so, it’s been raining for the past week, and for the past week I had spent my time looking out the window hoping that the rain would stop so that i can go get my haircut. and just when I thought my poor neck couldn’t handle another "look up at the sky" the rain cloud moved on…planning to thwart a picnic plan an unlucky guy just planned.

For those who saw me back in Malaysia…well, only a few did actually…mostly will say that I’ve adopted the Japanese look. You know, the look from jap manga and animes….yeah, I look like that. Long brownish hair swaying ever so gently with the wind. Plus a thick frame glasses if I may add. Don’t accuse me of exaggerating but my own dad couldn’t recognize me at a glance. He had to look hard and wait for me to call out before embracing me when I touched down at KLIA. "Randy, wah…you changed already hah…but I still can recognize you"…..yeah right!

and when I was back home, my neighbours lined up and took turns to comment on how much I look like a jap. You know, all those aunty…if one of them commented on something, they ALL have to comment on the same thing or else be left outdated. Best yet! I was out at Harajuku (hippest place in Tokyo) and was asking a girl donning cosplay for a photo, I… uhh…asked in English…when she suddenly giggled while mumbling "OMG I thought that was a japanese!!"

Sigh….those were the fun days…

Snip snip snip ….I just gave all that up a few hours ago. And I had to pay to do it!! They never told me that I had to pay to look like a Malaysian when I was born. While I had the jap hairstyle this noon, I now adopt the Beckham hairstyle…you know…the one he had when he was still famous. The hair he had when he "missed the penalty". Yep, that’s the one…..but I’m not
into soccer so that won’t effect me in any way…
