Masih cewe?

I kept getting that question in Lampung. At first it was very puzzling to be asked like that. Mind you, in Jakarta it means "are you still a girl?". Of course I looked at the lady who asked funny before replying "well, the last time I checked I still am". They laughed.

Turns out she meant "are you still single?", which come to think of it, my reply still holds :P

Being in Lampung, they started saying that they are going to pray for me. Sweet.

The questions never cease. Once you get married, you're relived of the 'masih cewe?' but burdened by 'kapan mau punya anak?'....when you have your first child, you foolishly think you are relieved of the questions....nope!! Then it's..'Kapan mau punya satu lagi??...kasihan si kecil...kesepian ntar!!....'

Shut uuupppp!!!!!!

Stupid tante-tante with the stupid tatoo-ed fake eye-brows....leave us alone!!! hahahahahaa.....

I know! I was tempted to ask those tante: kapan nyusul each time we meet at a funeral :P
