Million dollar question of the day: What the f*ck is this:
China's obsession with plastic surgery is finding fresh demand from couples who are going under the knife to get their noses and even their eyes done as a sign of their love for one another, the official newspaper China Daily reported.
"I suggested it as a way of celebrating our relationship and bringing us closer together with a special kind of bond," Liu Yan, 24, was quoted as saying of the matching nose jobs for her and her 28-year-old boyfriend.
This is some random Valentine's Day article I pulled up from MSN just now. Don't really care so much about the plastic surgery because that's your own issue--what I do have a problem with is that there is a growing demand for Asian couples to get plastic surgery to look more like each other.
I have, really, very little to say about this...except...
As someone who has been asked before if the guy, whose hand I was holding, was my brother, and as someone who has said and been told that all Asians look alike--WHAT THE F*CK. Bad enough no one can tell the difference between us already, but now people are actually paying money to look like their boyfriends/girlfriends? They're purposely inducing the rest of us into thinking they're in some incestuous relationship...
That just makes us Chinese people look way worse. That, and the rip-off Harry Potter movie that was produced and released in China before the actual Harry Potter movie was even filmed.

I was waiting for you to add another "Sylvia hates ____" post so I could respond to that instead of your e-mail. As for kitty, getting her this weekend would be fine b/c it's a four-day one for me (friday - monday). But I do have an exam and a project due for my scariest class FBE 421 on Wednesday so the earlier kitty could come for a test run the better. Happy Valentines day!
I don't think all Asians look alike. Similar traits maybe but that's it. I like the traits Asians do have though. It makes them unique.
