She asked: "剪头发(Hair-cut)?" "Er", I replied. Actually, I was shocked that she speak Mandarin with me. I thought she would speak English to me. “请坐(Please have a sit)", she said. She was so "cool'. That was my first thought.
After 20 minutes of long waiting, finally it was my turn. This is the point my story begin. She asked me what hair style I want. I replied that just cut my hair short, but not too short, not too long. She was blur. Haha. She asked me do I study in McMaster. I said yes. Also, I told her that I comes from Malaysia. "Which area?", she asked. This time I was blur. I thought she is a Chinese from China and why she wanna know which area I come from. "霹雳州(Perak)", I answered. "Oh, 西马(West Coast of Malaysia)", she said. I became more blur. How she knew that??? Until she said that she came from Sabah, East of Malaysia, the thousands hundreds of questions in my head were gone. Well, we had a very nice conversation for nearly an hour.
Suddenly, she gave a very surprising offer to me. "要highlight吗(Do you wanna hightlight your hair)?, she asked. I didn't know how to answer her question. I was damn shocked{Yup, I was}. "像我头发一样,很漂亮的(It will looks like my hair, it will be very pretty)" she said with happiness. And she said that she would give me a special discount since we were very "ngam kee{Cantonese phrase}". Well, I like to try new stuff, therefore I accept her offer.
Again, we had another an hour comfortable conversation. She told me a lot of her background and a "secret" about her barbershop. In fact, that's not a secret but she said that she never told anyone about the event. I had my hair-cut finished at 3.25pm and I left the barbershop. I think I would never see her again. She is a nice woman and I wish good luck to her from the bottom of my heart.
One of my friends always said that I have become a bad boy since I came here. Of course he is kidding when he said it. But, well, I am truly a bad boy now{of course I am not}. ^^
Okay, below is one of the most shocking photos of the 21st century.
