cutting edge
vanity,
it never got to me, maybe that's why i look like the scruffiest looking thang around in my late 20s. maybe it was that line princess leia used on Han on hoth, scruffy looking, hell, solo was a pretty cool guy, ppl still liked him despite his scruffy outlook.
and the longer my hair grew, it just ended up like a natural luke skywalker do, so why bother getting it styled?
needless to say, the saloon is one of my less frequent hangouts....it was more to barbers. yeah you know the type ur dad used to go to? for the real man cut, where they take a safetyless blade and try their best not to slit your throat while singing their favourite bollywood anthem.
I just came back to penang to have one of those, just RM 8 for a cut and shave....it's dirt cheap, almost the same price in vietnam.
the difference however is they do a much better job in Nam.
over here they rush it, they treat ur face like cow's skin and i end up bleeding on my way home, but up north, you can actually get some grade A cut's and they take their damn time to give you that close shave, so no blood and they'll even clean ur ears and nose if you want to......but that's something i can manage on my own.
maybe it's something the french leftover, good coffee, great bread and professional barbers. to me i think it's just good ol commie pride.

country road
it's more like flight path
the island heat reminds me why i left, but the cool after the sunset, reminds me where i belong
food portions are small but extra servings are always welcomed
if you see the same bus driver that picked yer up when yer was just a wee lad, still up and running, with a cigarette in his mouth.........you know yer just going to live forever
things may have changed here and there, you actually have to request that your si ham in your char kuay teow be undercooked, or else they'll murder it.
but if you can hear the waves crash on the rocks and sand, you know there's more to life than skyscrapers and starbucks
