do i look american/british to you?

I taught tuition again at the Yishun Tuition Centre. It was quite hilarious. My new sec 3 going on to 4 student mentioned that i looked like a birtish or an american who lived in singapore! so interesting. I then probed and asked whether he knew of any acquaintance or friends who are american/british but he said no. hmm... He then said that my face look like them...?? wad! haha. LOL its so funny la.

He initally thought i could speak Mandarin or that i was Chinese or sth! 5 mins to the end of the session, his mom called to tell him where to meet after class. Upon hanging up, he blurted in mandarin- to me of course since there was only 2 of u in that classroom- that his mom wasted ten cents calling him cause he got no free incoming. i played along and remarked that why he didnt apply free incoming and he replied in Madarin-again- saying that it was his mom who applied.

haha. than i smiled and asked him do i look like i am Chinese or that i can speak mandarin? that's when he said no but 'you look British or American'..!!!

Weirdest comment i ever got!

i had received previous remark about the way i look. Most cabbies think i am chinese, some barbers and haridressers thought i was either chinese, thai or sth... Even when i travel ard in Johor, occasionally cabbies thought i was chinese.

I don't mind looking like one esp if i look as cool as my idol Jay Chou! LOL
