Ready, 1, 2, 3!
Today I went to take passport photos for when I go to HK to do my stuff. At the photo studio, the guy with the camera said "Ready", to which I replied "yes", expecting him to say "1,2,3" *Snap*. But, he took the photo right as I was saying "yes". This was the outcome...
And no joke, the guy put his camera down and literally pouted for 10 seconds. I couldn't believe it. I know, film costs more money, and I must have been wasting his time...cause if I wasn't there, he could have gone back to playing board games. So I said "I'll pay for two passport photos...just take another one." Everyone else in the store was laughing, but this dude was still pouting. Anyway, when someone says "Ready", you expect him to say "1,2,3" before snapping the photos. After this, I thought it was just the West that did that, but when I told the story to my coworker, he said that they also say "1,2,3" before they take the shot. So...I took one more picture and the outcome was much better...
Anyway, I know it can be a pain, but don't stand there throwing a temper tantrum in the middle of the store, especially in front of a customer. geez. Act your age. In any case, I think it would have been cool if I could have used the first photo for my visa.
*ps. My hair is so stankin long, I think if I donated 10 inches right now, my hair would still be at my shoulders. Maybe I could donate it to someone who wants to get her "fake hair" weaved. Some salon owner actually tried to get me to buy fake hair! Why would I want to buy fake hair!

Dang, your hair IS long, girl!!!!!!!!!:):) Mine is too but I'm gonna donate mine once it reaches my knees.:):) Let's see if I can stand it until then!
Hahhaha, when I was working @ my church's preschool, one hip, little girl asked me, "Oh, Miss Diana, did you buy those little braids from one of the mall's stands? I've seen those, my mom wanted to buy some..." Uh, no, missy, I braided those myself, thank you very much.
