Another Korean Experience

After having lunch yesterday at Pizza Hut Bistro, I had a haircut at Tony and Jackey (since it's just one kembot away). Here's my discourse with Shine (the korean hairstylist) and her assisstant:

After washing my hair

Shine: Woh heh Cah? (What hair cut)

Ryan: Give me a short haircut that's kinda manageable. Low maintenance, easy to style and flexible.

Shine: Woh? (What)

Ryan: Repeats the instruction again.

Shine: Woh? (What) Calls her assisstant and murmurs something..

Assisstant: Ano daw?

Ryan: Repeats the instruction again.

Assistant: (to Shine) Short haircut (WTF! kasasabi ko nga lang na short!)

Shine: Woh? (hindi talaga makaintindi ang gaga... Whisper something again to her assisstant and then she got back to me) Ho sho? (how short)

Assisstant draws an album and told me to select a hairstyle.

Ryan: (to myself) I don't wanna look like one of 'em. Besides, I know hindi bagay sa akin ganung haircut...

After browsing through the pictures, I really couldn't decide what style to get...

Ryan: Repeats the instruction again. But this time, I uttered my words slowly and clearly... 'Iiiiii waaaannnntttt aaaaaa ssssshhhhhooooorrrrrtttt...... (so on and so forth)

Other customers around me are kinda smirking na... hahaha

Shine: Woh? (What?)

Ryan: (Gives up) It's ur call. Give me a new look that would look good on me. Your call!

Shine: (to her assisstant) Woh? (What?)

Assisstant: (Speaks very slowly with sarcasm) It's up to you...

Shine: oke! (ok!)

Hence, the haircut began. She gave be haircut with bangs! Tangina! bangs kung bangs!!! Later on to find out that the style is very flexible. I can do tons of styles with it. And my friends like it naman. hahahaha... Neway, masasabi ko lang, mas magaling pa sila mag-tagalog kesa mag-english... i'll ask our korean neighbor to translate my instructions to korean para when I go back there, magkakaintindihan na kami (wag lang nya ako sagutin ulit ng korean) hehehe
