I cut off 6 inches off my hair and broke the news. The almost one-way conversation went like this:
“I cut off a lot of hair”
“Really?” I could almost see him frown behind the phone
“Yeah, don’t worry its not too short. The hairdresser asked if I wanted a bob. I feel like it but I told him that my boyfriend like me to be like Rapunzel”
He laughed and made what I believe is a false claim
“You can have short hair if you want”
“It’s ok. Since you’re cool with me doing everything else, I can obliged with keeping my hair long. But not too long lah. I can’t afford it….”
and I asked “Do you know what Rapunzel do all day in the tower?”
“No” he said
“She spends all day shampooing, combing and braiding her hair”
He snickered.
I think I made my point.

Upon finishing one of my recent favourite book, he said
“What book do you want to read next? I’ll get it for you”
“No thanks. I don’t want to read too much anymore”
“Why?” he asked, concerned and continued “Then you’ll become stupid”
“Will you still love me if I’m stupid?” I asked coquettishly.
With a serious face, he asked innocently:
“How stupid?”
(?!)
(Of course I told him the correct reply should be ‘Yes’ not, ‘How stupid?’)

“You look beautiful today” he paid me a rare compliment. I could see the twinkle in his eyes that he truly liked the outfit
“Oh. Thank you!” I replied, surprised
“You look like Where’s Wally!” he exclaimed
“Who’s that?”
“Google It!”
This is what I found…
