My left eye was pretty red, so I have to edit or PS it so that it won't be so obvious. Ehehehhee...
Well, these few days I wasn't feeling too well, thanks to the weather. First fever, and then sore throat, cracked lips and red swollen eyes. GEEZ.
Owh yea, just to share a funny story.
I went to the lil market to buy some tissues.
I searched all around but there was none. So I went straight to the counter and asked the auntie there.
I asked her, "这里有卖卫生纸?" I thought that was what tissue called in Chinese so I said that. Anyway, that's what it called in Malaysia. HMPH. haha..
"卫生巾??卫生巾全都在哪儿呀!" She thought I mean Sanitary Pads!!! T.T And she said those SO DAMN LOUDLY. There was a guy from my school in that market too.
So I felt pretty embarrassed.
"不是卫生巾,是卫生纸。。。"
“是啊,我知道啊!卫生巾嘛~ 周期用的那个嘛!就在那里,整排都是!!”
I got so flustered explaining to her since almost all the customers in the shop were staring at me. And man, there was a guy I knew from my school buying something there as well. GOD.
“不是不是。。 嗯。。。 是我们平常用的。。。 TISSUE华语叫什么了??”
“啊?什么东西?” She didn't know any English. So I'm STUCK.
“TISSUE,TISSUE。。 你知道吗? 嗯。。。 就是。。。。 就是。。。 纸巾!对了,我要纸巾!!”
I breathed out in relief after I got the right word. LOL.
And that auntie was like, OHHH I SEEEE....
Haha.. So yea, she got me that irritating 2 packs of tissues which gave me the glory of becoming the center of attention.
So ppl, don't mess up Sanitary Pad and Tissue in Chinese when you're in China. LOL.
