Here is a funny story - I was working on my retail job when I had this customer who was quite old. She approached me with a smile and asked me with a very tiny voice, Do you guys have any duvets? I was so preoccupied with fixing the shelfs that I turned to her and said, Mam, I am very sorry but we do not sell toupees(sounds like duvets) here. She turned all red and looked at me with angry eyes. I said I needed a duvet not a toupee, direct me to a person who actually understands english. I was like, I am very sorry for the misunderstanding but here are our duvets if you still need someone else to help you I would gladly look for someone. Deng, come on it is a honest mistake dont prosecute me for it. =)
A not so Interesting Life
I used to dread getting older because I thought I would not be able to do all the things I wanted to do, but now that I am older I find that I don't want to do them.
