Asians have strange habits which scream out like two headlights in a moonless night. If you are Asian and reading this, you would probably nod. If you aren't Asian but find yourself nodding, dude you either need a life or a wife.
Here are the first 8 Asian clues about me and my Asianity:
1. I've had several hair cuts from my mom. Even husband had to strip down to his underwear, squat on newspapers in the bathroom and let my ma cut his hair a few times. Don't ask, just imagine.
2. I can tell you which items in the Dollar shop are more expensive than in WalMart.
3. I re-use the water I use to wash veggie and fruits to water my plants. By the way, the starchy water from washing rice is a good fertilizer for plants. Maybe I can start selling them to Spa.
4. Talking about rice, yes I always have a bag of rice sitting in my pantry.
5. Not only I've rice, which usually means Jasmine Rice (Long Grain), I've Basmati Rice, Calrose Rice, Brown Rice, and of course Glutinous Rice – both white and black Glutinous Rice. Don't ask, just eat your rice, and don't you dare to leave one grain on your plate!
6. I don't order Spaghetti dishes outside. For one thing they are overpriced and... I really can't eat Spaghetti with a folk and knife; chopsticks people, chopsticks! (What was Marco Polo thinking? How could he steal noodles without chopsticks? That's like Panda goes to do business in the wood without leaves!)
7. I save some grocery bags and re-use them as garbage bag. It is too "wasteful" to buy the real garbage bags – what, you pay money for something that you already have the intention to throw away? You crazy?
8. I've very good handwriting - all Asians have very good handwriting. That's why we can never be doctors! Sigh!
