Pre-War on the Bushy Duo (I noe what u're thinking, but I'm not talking abt the 2 of us, u *toot*)
Part 1We went to
Sentosa on Tuesday. The weather was so
gloriously sunny, my camera couldnt take it & we ended up with loads of
Twilight Zone pics.
Yes, everything taken under the sun was just a
bright burst of white on screen. Yes, even under the straw-woven shelter. Sheesh. We had to snap this one while waiting for the bus. While I
didnt get a tan (too much sunscreen), GW had
sunburn (v little sunscreen) hahaha!
Note to self: Avoid going to the beach on public holidays. U nvr know when some men are openly taking pics of u... & even if u must, go early & exit early to maximise the fun & minimise eliminate shower-room queue frustration.
Part 2Uncle Ow's eyebrows were starting to look
really messy. So he requested for a trim yesterday.
Sure thing, I said. I'm just gonna pluck away the
stray scraggly bits. Your girlfren is no professional u noe, I added. He wisely
kept quiet heh heh.
So out came my
golden tweezers to attack the foliage. I
remembered everything abt how ur eyebrows shd start from where ur tear-ducts start & how they shd just tail nicely at the end blah blah blah. I was
sorely tempted to pluck out a gentle arch but didnt.
Too many men are eyeing him already. Besides, I better not be overzealous. Scarli
deforestation then how???
Ok, I'm done dear, I claimed 5 mins later, proud of my work.
Whoa, why are they
so far apart, he gasped. Ok, what, I exclaimed. Ur eyebrows are not supposed to be so near, u noe.
Upon close surveillance, he figured it's a
close shave pluck & claimed
they're very nicely done blah blah blah...
So long it's done by me, it's great blah blah blah... Anyway, I
gey-kiang asked him for
feedback frm his friends & family, still proud of my handiwork. (Hey, he boosted my confidence level!)
Later that day...GW: Eh, notice anything different?
Friend: wah what happened to ur brows? Ok lah,
looks alright lah.
GW: Eh Ma, do u notice any change in my face?
GW Momma: Huh... Wah how come ur face so red??? ...... Eh...
What Happened To Your Eyebrows? U go & pluck them
again issit??? I told u already you just need to pluck the stray hairs away & not overpluck. U pluck so much from the centre now they are so far apart & the one on the left is too short lah....

But I was
totally stumped when she went on:
Aiyah, if u want to pluck ur eyebrows, why didnt u ask either me or your girlfriend to do it for u?Again, my wonderful boyfriend wisely
kept quiet in front of her. Only to burst out in
hysterical gleeful laughter over the phone 1 min later.
I'll do better next time, Auntie =(
