Shake Head

Weather: Gloomy
Mood: Relax


Guess what?! Of all things I can learn in China, I learn to shake my head. :D




Don't understand what I mean?

Well, I find the people here (in Shanghai) can be extrememly unhelpful. Whenever I ask for assistance, either I get a very fast "I dunno" response, or the person shaking his/her head. I guess it's a cultural thing since the locals believe in "自扫门前雪" or minding own business. *shrugs*

By the way, my Philipino maid is finally here. And while we were doing grocery shopping with her this morning, I taught her this:

"If you are approached by strangers, simply shake your head."

Quote from Boy, "Mummy, can I have see only, I won't buy, just see only."

LOL! So have you also pick up this Anti-courtesy exercise too?? Do remember to get some shoulder and neck massage every night before bed. Guess it hurts pretty much after a long day of shaking... HAHAHA!

Sassy ^.*
