Skin Pigmentation

I had an awkward experience with Rianne recently during a bus ride to uni. We were sitting near the front and we were having a casual conversation. The bus was half full; all the seats were taken but no one was standing.
Anyways, out of nowhere Rianne screams out:

"OMG YOUR SKIN IS SO WHITE!! YOU NEED A TAN, YOUR WHITER THAN I AM!!"

I felt a bit unnerved because all the other passengers were looking at us. The girl sitting opposite to us was trying to hide her laughter, and I felt that the people at the back were awaiting my response.

All I could say was "That's because you are a Phillipino and I'm Chinese.."

I don't know what the point of that was.. but one day I will look back and laugh my head off.

How to amuse yourself lesson 101:
1) always say and do the unexpected... be random
2) dont care what other people would think
3) laugh at yourself... and everyone else shall laugh with you. hence, eliminating the 'how embarrassing' factor. hehehehe

Dont worry tubule... there are plenty of bus rides to come. Arent you lucky?! hihihi :OP
