The product of ten years of decriptive writing.

Student: That teacher who is a lady.
Teacher: There're about 70 lady teachers in this college. What does she look like?
Student: She looks like an American Born Chinese.
Teacher: She loooks...?
Student (hurridely interjects): She looks oriental.
Teacher: She looks American Born or Oriental? They're very different.
Student: Um.. She looks like a Chinese whose been to America.
Teacher: Um, how am I supposed to know what a Chinese that's been to America looks like? Do I look live I've been to Kota Tinggi?
Student: Um.....
Teacher: Does she have big eyes?
Student: No, she doesn't.
Teacher: Ok... did she have small eyes?
Student: Erm, no. They're not big, not small lah. But she looks like she exercises a lot.
Teacher (with a look of revelation): Ah......
