Reliving

Met up with some ex-colleagues last night and as usual, we were reliving the funniest moments that got us laughing till we were gasping for breath.

On Vietnamese beauties

D: I heard Vietnamese girls from the North are pretty. The Southern ones, not so. So which part are you from, M (our Vietnamese colleague)?

M : The central part.

D: Oh, no wonder.

M looked incredulous. The rest of us goggled at D in disbelief, What?!!

On Koreans

M: Has anyone seen the Korean? Has anyone seen the Korean?

J: What Korean? Have you seen C? He's in the other room! (We had a Korean colleague.)

M: What are you talking about? I'm asking about the Korean who delivers documents to us!

M was actually talking about the courier.

On Italian chapels

Me: I may be going to Europe with my boyfriend and his family next autumn.

A: I think the parents are planning to make you marry their son in Europe! Imagine passing by a cathedral in Rome. They'll push you in and lock the doors. They will even prepare the gown.

Me: What?!

A: Just double check their luggage before you leave for Europe. Make sure there's no dubious white dress in their luggage!
