This is not the first time I talk about the below joke. For those that have heard before, please bear with me again. For those that you have not heard before, you will keep hearing me talking about it again and again in future….. Hahaha…….
The below were dialogues with strangers during my traveling experience:
Incident #1: Hawaii - public toilet along the beach side, while changing my bikini a Filipino kept staring at me and finally decided to talk to me in a very direct way.
Filipino : Are you a Filipino?
Me : No. I am a Singapore chinese.
Filipino : Oh! I am sorry. You looked like Filipino.

Incident #4: Malaysia – at Shah Bandar Jetty, 一位小兄弟approached me. He was a Malaysian and working in Singapore. We were waiting for the super coach to pick us up and returned to Singapore. During our conversation he knew that I traveled alone………..
小兄弟 : 哇！自己一个人旅行不怕被打抢啊!
(I just give him a smile and he continued……)

(And the小兄弟 kept knobbing his head.)
小兄弟 : 刚才我差点就跟你说马来话。

Incident #5: Phuket – In the Family Mart (like 7-eleven), while I am looking for drinks. Ang Mo Aunty approached me and asked me for help.
Ang Mo Aunty: I am looking for Plain Yogurt? Can you help me?
(I found the plain yogurt and passed it to her. I continued shopping around, and she talked to me again)
Ang Mo Aunty: Is the bun tasty? I am looking for tasty bun.
Me : Sorry, I am not the local, so I would not know is it tasty.
Ang Mo Aunty: Oh! I am sorry. You look like the local.
