Cat

Yesterday, I went to look for my department’s cute admin (let’s call her “Cat”) to send a very important document to someone on the other side of the state. During the deal with her, I borrowed a pen to scribble some message onto the envelope … it was then, she began to ask some curious questions.

“Michael … are you a guitar player ?”
“No..I am not”
“How bout chinese organ ?” (she quoted as “ku chen”)
“Nope. I don’t play any musical instruments at all”
“Oh… then why u keep your nails so long for ?”

Obviously, it was an embarrassing question. I actually have no intention of any sorts to keep my 10 finger’s nails long. It’s just one simple reason — I am a lazy fart that doesn’t clip my nails until they broke off.
*if u have an idea that I have dirty nails, you’re wrong. I washes my nails everytime I go to the washroom .. so, it’s very clean and white.*

I then attempted to answer Cat’s curiosity, by telling her a lot of lies -

“I actually fancy keeping them. They make my fingers look longer”
“Really ?”
“Yeah .. and it’s also really useful when I want to do some of my delicate work”
“Oh ok. See my nails ? They’re very short.”
“You liar. I think u broke your nails coz u scraped your scalp for dandruff too much”
“No .. I clip my nails every time coz I play violin a lot”
“That’s why your fingers looked short and ugly..”
“Not as ugly as yours … ” (make faces)
“Well … at least I can scratch my back better with these nails ..”

And she proceeded to laugh out loud hysterically like a hyena across the office … triggering a massive head bobs from hundreds of cubicles. Sometimes, we can’t simply joke around with girls .. they’re so ‘unstable’…
